If there is a "FIRE" activation the associated boxes will have a

 RED

 square over/adjacent 

 

them. By following the same process as above, an engineer will be able to verify the child 
device has activated.   

By pressing 

 

, the engineer will return to the

 Status

 page. By right-clicking on the   

partition that is in fault or fire, a sub-window appears allowing the engineer to reset faults in 

 

the partition. (This is useful if there are many faults displayed - soft faults will disappear 

 

completely, hard faults will re-appear and can then be investigated):
