The remote terminal is an indicator and operating unit in a fire detection installation
with the following functions:
Indication of events
 'ALARM'
– 'Pre-ALARM'
 'Trouble'
 'Bypassed'
 'Supervisory'
Operation
 Silence buzzer
 Acknowledge and reset alarms and troubles
 Three buttons configurable with the Engineering tool set.

 Maximum number of events which can be displayed [➙ 7]
2.1 Maximum number of events which can be displayed
The maximum number of events which can be displayed is limited as follows and
depends on the event text length:
Display representation Max. number (long event texts)
'Extended view' 18
'Standard view ' 37
Events are displayed by priority. Once the maximum number of events which can be
displayed is reached, events of a higher priority take the place of those of a lower
priority in the display.
Events which are no longer displayed due to this limit can be listed in full on the
control panel.
