evacuation panel network, it is not required to repeat other control panels to
show their zone indications.
Therefore all control panels display the local and remote information. If you need
to show only local status in a control panel:
•Press the Enter button for at least 3 seconds.
•A steady Networking Fault LED indicates network remote indications are
disabled momentarily.
•Only local information is shown for 30 seconds. After this time, the
Networking Fault LED turns off and the control panel shows global (local and
remote) information according to its configuration.
Example 1
If you have an eight-zone evacuation system with two four-zone evacuation
control panels where both panels repeat each other, and you need to identify
which panel has a supply fault you should press Enter for 3 seconds. The control
panel without the supply fault will turn off the supply fault indication.
Example 2
If you have an eight-zone evacuation system with two four-zone evacuation
control panels that are not repeating each other, then one panel has a zone
range of 1 to 4 and the other panel has a zone range of 4 to 7. Sharing zone 4
will allow activating evacuation area 4 and 1 of one control panel with events of
zone 4 in the other panel.
If there is a defective device causing false alarms in zone 4 of panel 1, you can
disable it and keep some detection active (zone 4 of panel 2 operational). The
zone 4 yellow LED will activate in both panels. Afterwards, an alarm in zone 4 of
panel 2 will cause both panels to activate and the zone 4 red and yellow LEDs in
both panels will be active.
Pushing Enter for 3 seconds at panel 1 will cause the red LED indication of zone
4 to disappear, indicating that the control panel has zone 4 disabled. At this point,
you will know the alarm is from zone 4 of panel 2. You can confirm this by
pushing Enter for 3 seconds at panel 2. In this case, the yellow LED indication
disappears.
