Operating instructions
2.2 Completing the exit procedure
Once all available options have been accepted, the display will show
Leave by Exit Route
The exit tone will commence, and, if the system is programmed for 'Timed' exit, the Exit time
will display, and count down to zero.
Leave the building by the permitted route and complete the setting procedure by whatever
means are programmed. This may be by operating a 'PUSH TO SET' button outside the
premises, by the action of locking the final door, or may be automatic when a programmed
timer expires. Check that the tone is steady before activating the 'Push to Set' button, and
that it ceases before leaving.
When you have completed the exit procedure, the system is armed, and the keypad will
display 'System Ready' with the backlight switched off.
2.3 What to do if there is a Fault on Exit
If instead of a continuous exit tone, you have an interrupted tone, look at the keypad display,
which will locate the possible fault - eg:
Cannot Set [02]
Zone 02
If the fault is part of your exit route (eg hallway PIR detector, or front door), this is normal,
and you may proceed with your exit procedure, being sure to close all necessary doors on the
way out. The presence of an open detector will prevent the system from setting, and
automatically extend a programmed exit time
If the fault is an open door or window elsewhere, abort the setting procedure before going to
close it.
When the final door is closed, and the detectors have settled, the tone will be continuous, and
then stop when the setting procedure is completed. Any interrupted tone continuing means
that the system has not set. You must re-enter the building, key in your code, and correct the
problem.
NOTE: If a 'Push to Set' button is activated before the tone becomes steady, the signal will be
'stored' until the fault clears, and then set the system.
2.4 Anti-Mask Protection
If the system has been programmed to do so, certain detectors will be checked whilst the
system is unset, to ensure that they continue to function correctly. When setting, the display
will show 'Please Wait' (following the 'Select Areas' menu) briefly whilst this check is being
completed. If any of such detectors have NOT operated whilst the system was unset, then the
system will 'chime' repeatedly, and indicate:
Not Tested [12]
Stores
If more than one detector is affected, the zone names will scroll sequentially.
If you walk within the field of these detectors, they will disappear from the list, and the
display will show
All Zones Tested
.... Press YES Key
On pressing the 'YES (#) key, the setting procedure will be completed.
If the 'YES' key is pressed without testing the detectors, the check will be cancelled and the
system will set, with details of the untested detectors being recorded in the system logs.
Alternatively, pressing the 'NO' (*) key will abort the setting procedure, allowing you to go
and check the detectors before trying again.
