Troubleshooting
The FP-08450 Control Panel provides a comprehensive fault monitoring system that will detect
any open-circuit in the Circuit 1 Alarm Output, Circuit 2 Alarm Output, Siren/Strobe Output,
Discharge Output and Agent Released Input and any malfunctions of the control pane
l’s
internal components.
When in a fault condition, the control panel will operate the “Fault” LED indicator and operate
the internal sounder. The control panel uses a coded sequence to indicate the type circuit to
the operator.
Note:
to diagnose if a fault is internal or external, attempt to isolate the panel.
If the control panel can be isolated, the fault is external. (see 7.2 Isolating the Control Panel)
10.1
Internal Faults
An internal fault cannot be isolated and will display as:
Internal Sounder
Fault LED
Fault
Continuous, steady beep
On
Internal 5vDC Supply OR Watch Dog Circuit
Continuous, pulsing beep
On
Internal Microprocessor
Internal faults can be rectified by powering down the panel and powering up again. This will
reset the system to normal conditions. If the fault persists, contact your supplier.
10.2
External Faults
An external fault can be isolated and will display as:
Internal Sounder
Fault LED
Fault
1 beep
On
Circuit 1 Alarm
2 beeps
On
Circuit 2 Alarm
3 beeps
On
Discharge Circuit OR Siren/Strobe Circuit
External faults will require inspection and testing of connections and installed components.
End-of-line plugs should be plugged directly into the panel, to return it normal condition, and
then used to systematically check along the effected circuit(s). If the fault persists, contact
your supplier.
