1General / Application
These operation instructions are intended to complement the explanations of your fire alarm installer and
provide you with concise and comprehensive information on the operation of the fire alarm control panel
MAx series MA-1000, MA-2000 and MA-8000. We recommend that you read these operating instructions
carefully and keep them with the technical documents of the fire alarm control panel (FACP). If you have any
questions, please contact your fire alarm installer.
This documentation describes all displays, indicators and operating elements that are relevant for the operation
of your fire alarm control panel.
The compact, microprocessor-controlled FACP is used for early fire detection, chiefly in small- to medium-sized
buildings, with fire detectors based on addressable detector. The FACP technology represents the state of the
art in early fire detection.
The use of intelligent fire detectors on a short-circuit and fault-tolerant loop guarantees reliable early detection
of fires.
Thanks to the clear design of the product, the instructed person will be able to quickly and easily operate the
functions of the panel. The operating state of each detector zone, such as fire, fault or shut-off is indicated by a
separate single detector zone indicator unit on the operating panel.
This manual refers to functions available in the software revision shown on the cover.

1.3 FRONT PANEL CONTROLS AND SIGNALLINGS
Buttons with dedicated functions
EVACUATION: Command for activating the siren output and all output modules programmed with type SW =
SND in the absence of alarms and faults. A level 2 password is required to activate this function.
END DELAY:
This button is active only in the event of an alarm if the immediate activation of the sounder outputs has been
excluded in the exclusion menu. The panel delays the activation of the abovementioned outputs for the
programmed times. During the delay time, the active delay LED flashes and it is possible to reset the current
delay via the End Delay button.
SILENCE BUZZER:
By pressing this button, the operator can silence the panel buzzer. This allows the user to perform a RESET.
SOUNDER ON/OFF SILENCE: A level 2 password is required for this function.
The following devices are activated in the event of an alarm:
•Sounder output
•Output modules programmed with SW type ID=SND
•The output modules activated for CBE associations
SILENCE RESOUND:
By pressing this button, you can deactivate the following devices:
•Siren output
•Output modules programmed with type ID SND and enabled for silencing
•All output modules activated for CBE associations and enabled for silencing
Pressing this button again will reactivate:
•Siren output
•Output modules programmed with type ID SND
•All the output modules deactivated in the previous silencing
RESET:
This function requires a level 2 password. Pressing this button clears alarms and faults from the memory. It
deactivates the sounder and turns off all light signals of sensors in the alarm.

1.4 FRONT PANEL LED INDICATIONS
ALARM (red):
It flashes if there is at least one device in alarm status and it has not been recognised yet.
It is permanently on if all alarm events have been recognised.
PREALARM (red):
It flashes if there is at least one device in pre
-
alarm status and it has not been recognised
yet. It is permanently on if all pre
-alarm events have been recognised.
REMOTE ALARM ACTIVATED (red):
It is permanently on if the output to the fire alarm transmission devices (telephone dial)
has been activated.
SILENCE SOUNDER (yellow):
It is on after the sounder silencing command has been performed.
DELAY ACTIVATED (yellow):
It is on if the immediate output activation has been disabled; this applies to type C
(sounder output) and type E (alarm transmission via telephone dial) outputs. When this
delay is activated, in the event of an alarm the system delays the abovementioned outputs
for the programmed times. During the delay time the LED flashes
and it is possible to
reset the current delay via the “reset delay” button with user level 1 authorisation.
EVACUATION (yellow):
It is on after the evacuation function has been activated.
TEST (yellow):
It is on during the zone walk test.
POWER
(green):
It is permanently on if the control unit is powered (230
V AC or battery charger).
FAULTS (yellow):
It flashes if there is at least one fault of any type and it has not been recognised yet.
It is on if all faults have been recognised.
SYSTEM (y
ellow):
It is on if there is at least one system fault (watch dog, CRC memory error, etc.).
POWER SUPPLY (yellow):
It is on if there is a power supply fault.
EARTH FAULT (yellow):
It is permanently on if the loop/main positive or negative are
earthed.
DISABLEMENTS (yellow):
It is on if there is at least one zone or point disabled in the system.
SOUNDER (yellow):
It is on if the siren output is disabled. It flashes if the siren output is in fault condition.
FAULT TRANSMISSION (yellow):
It is on if the fault transmission output is disabled (telephone dial). It flashes if the fault
transmission output is in fault condition.
ALARM TRANSMISSION (yellow):
It is on if the alarm transmission is disabled (telephone dial). It flashes if the alarm
transmis
sion output is in fault condition.
EXTINGUISHING (yellow):
It is on if the output towards the automatic fire
-
