1.2 About this manual
Manual code: DCMUINE0PREVIDIA
Version: 1.30
This manual is intended as a guide for end-users of the Previdia Max fire-detection control panel, therefore, provides
instructions on how to use the system and interpret the signals it generates.
Part of the information available on the screen and also the correct activation of some of the visual signals on the LEDs
will be subject to the configuration carried out by the installer; who, by following the instructions for configuration,
commissioning, maintenance and programming operations in the respective manuals, ensures the proper partitioning of
the zones and the classification, addressing and configuration of the various system elements.
1.3 Operator classification - Access Levels
The control panel has 4 distinct access levels:
Level 1: Public level - this is the normal access level of the control panel and is the access level for building inhabitants
who are neither authorized to use the system nor instructed in its use.
This level allows building inhabitants to view information on the screen and signalling LEDs, interact with the system (in
accordance with Level 1) and scroll through the information by means of the buttons and touchscreen. Level 1 allows the
following operations only:
• mute buzzer
• test signalling LEDs
• activate alarm signalling when an early-warning process is running
Level 2: Authorized users - this access level is for the system supervisors and is for authorized personnel who are
adequately instructed in the use of the system and its functions.
Access requires the use of a key or entry of a valid access code with sufficient access rights. In addition to the operations
described for level 1 it is also possible to carry out the following operations:
• mute alarm signalling devices
• rearm the control panel
• activate alarm signalling devices manually
• disable control panel elements
• place in test status one or more of the system elements
6General information
Fire detection and extinguishant system
Level 3: Programming - this access level is for specialized technical operators who carry out system configuration,
commissioning and maintenance.
Access requires entry of a valid access code with sufficient access rights after inserting a jumper which enables
programming. Refer to the manual for system configuration, commissioning and maintenance.
Level 4: ONLY authorized technicians, appointed by the Manufacturer can, by means of special tools, carry out repair
work on the motherboard.

8Operative statuses of the Previdia Max system
Fire detection and extinguishant system
Chapter 2
Operative statuses of the Previdia Max system
Standby: Operating status of the control panel when there is no ongoing alarm or fault signalling.
This status is altered by the occurrence of an event, that is, an operative status which is characterized by an activation
(when the event occurs) and a reset (when the event ends).
Alarm: Status of the control panel generated by manual activation (for instance, from a call point) or automatic
activation (signal from a detector). This is followed by an alarm signal.
Early warning: This is the status of the control panel during the interval (delay) which runs between the detection of an
alarm condition and the actual signalling of the alarm (delay).
Investigate: This command is activated by a supervisor, during an early-warning condition, it provides an extension of
the early-warning delay and allows the supervisor to verify the cause of the alarm.
Evacuate: This command is activated by a supervisor, during an early-warning condition, it cancels the delay and
instantly activates alarm signalling (evacuation).
Reset: This operator-activated command annuls the current status of the control panel (and the relative signalling and
activations) and resets the system to standby.
This command can be disabled in order to prevent users from activating it by mistake and annulling active signals.
Disable: This command disables part of the system
Emergency: This is the operating status of the control panel when a fault is detected on the main CPU on the FPMCPU
module, as a result the emergency CPU will be activated automatically.
The emergency backup CPU ensures the efficiency of the basic functions of the system (alarm signal reception from
points and activation of outputs). However, it does not ensure all the configured activation logic. For total redundancy of
all the configured functions, it is necessary to add and configure a second FPMCPU unit to the control panel.

3.1 Function buttons and LEDs
The LEDs on the sides and below the screen provide visual signals which indicate the general status of the system,
whereas the function buttons allow fast execution of all the main operations.
The key permits level 1 (public level) to pass to level 2 (supervisor level). When turned clockwise the key will generate a
pulse which places the control panel in level 2 status. The control panel will return to level 1 if no buttons are pushed
within 20 seconds.

3.11 Viewing active events
When events are active, or at least a condition is momentarily active and requires notification, the standby template on
the screen (paragraph 3.2 Screen in standby status) will be replaced by a template which provides the respective
notification.
The screen shows the active events on the system grouped in categories. These are represented by buttons at the top of
the template ([A]) which indicate the number of currently active events of each type.
Touching any one of these buttons will allow you to view all the events in the respective category. These are listed in
order of occurrence. If the event has been generated by a device, tapping the respective line will allow you to access and
view the template of the device concerned (paragraph 3.7 Device management).
Buttons associated with the events which are not active will remain grey.
After 30 seconds of inactivity the screen will automatically go to the page containing the category of events with the
highest priority. The priority is given as follows:
1. Fire Alarm: signal associated with fire-alarm conditions. These indicate potentially dangerous conditions which
require maximum attention.
When an alarm occurs, the section directly below the event buttons ([B]) shows the early-warning countdown and,
after the alarm, a summary of the data relating to the zones involved.
2. Gas Alarm: signal associated with gas-alarm conditions. Indicates a potentially dangerous condition which requires
maximum attention.
3. Early Warning: signal triggered by detectors with an early warning threshold which is set below the alarm threshold.
Cautionary alert which must be evaluated with attention and verified.
4. Supervision: signal indicating that a device or function controlled by the system is in a condition of failure. Indicates
a risk which may jeopardize the proper operating capacity of the system. Verify the signalled condition carefully.
5. Fault: signal indicating the presence of an anomaly which might jeopardize the proper operating capacity of the
system. Contact your service dealer.
6. Monitor: signal which is not associated with alarm or fault status, configurable during the installation phase, normally
used to provide indications to the user. Represents signals of minor importance. The level of attention required
depends on the use made of these signals during the system configuration phase.
7. Disablements: signal indicating the disablement of one or more of the system elements. Indicates that it is necessary
to pay attention to extent of the non-operative parts and the possible consequences.
8. Test: signal indicating that at least one of the system elements is in test status. This status is applied during
maintenance operations and maintains parts of the system in non-operative status, therefore, putting the premises in
danger as the protection level of the system is reduced.
