includes information on user responsibility
and emergency conditions with step by step
instructions on how to operate controls. The
manual has also a log book with pages to
record system events for future reference.
The following information is given in the
interest of personal safety and to prevent
damage to equipment installed and to
ensure the system operates correctly.
The information symbol is
accompanied with important text.
This can be either a warning to
prevent personal injury or death, or

General description The system 800 fire alarm panel is designed
to meet the requirements of EN54 Parts 2
and 4. It is suitable for installation in small to
medium size buildings in accordance with
the recommendations of BS5839:Part 1, to
provide an automatic fire detection and
alarm.
The system 800 panel is installed and
configured to monitor devices such as
detectors, manual call points and sounder
control transponder units connected on a
single loop. Each device is capable of being
addressed individually and may be assigned
to one of 24 zones. The devices and zones
in the system can each be given a label for
identification. In the event of a fire the panel
automatically operates external sounder
circuits to raise an alarm in the protected
buildings.
The push button controls on the panel are
for use by authorised and trained personal.
To comply with the requirements of
BS5839:Part 1, there are log sheets
provided at the back of this manual for
recording system events.

User
responsibility
Daily
Weekly
It is recommended that the persons
responsible for the fire alarm system should
become familiar with:
 How to operate the controls
 How to interpret visual indications given.
BS 5839:Part 1, states that the system
should be inspected daily to ensure that a
normal indication is given at the control and
indicating equipment and:
 any previously indicated fault and
warning condition has received
appropriate attention.
 all the system events are entered into
the Log Book for future reference.
 the use of the area(s) inspected has not
changed since the system was
designed.
 and no unsafe practices that could lead
to a fire are being undertaken.
At weekly interval:
 a different Fire Sensor or Manual Call
Point of the system should be tested to
ensure the system is capable of
operating under alarm condition.
 the operation of the alarm sounders
should be checked to also remind those
occupying the premises that there is a
fire alarm system with a particular
sound.
The test should be performed at a
regular time to avoid confusion
between a test and a genuine fire
alarm.

796689 (4188-658) i2__04/07 7
Quarterly
Battery replacement
At quarterly intervals the fire alarm system
should be inspected by the servicing
organisation. A trained maintenance
engineer from the servicing organisation
should carry out any work necessary.
For help with service and
maintenance contact your
Servicing organisation, see log
book.
Every four years the batteries installed in the
system 800 panel must be replaced.
CAUTION:
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF
BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN
INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES
ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS.
