Fire Alarms 
Fire alarms are the highest priority events. When a fire 
point activates, your keypad emits a pulsating high-
pitched fire tone. Evacuate all occupants and 
investigate for smoke or fire. Ensure that all occupants 
know the difference between the burglary tone and the 
fire tone. The tone sounds for the time set by your 
security company.   
The keypad display shows the point text of the first 
point that went into fire alarm and shows the message 
Enter Passcode and ENTER key to silence.  
 
Silencing Fire Alarms 
Entering a personal passcode with the proper authority 
level silences a fire alarm and disarms the system if it 
was armed. 
 
The system now shows 
*Alarm Silenced* and then 
the number of points in alarm 
(# FIRE ALARMS) and 
then the area text appears (
AREA 1 NAME TEXT) 
followed by the custom text of all the points in alarm 
(for example, 
SMOKE DETECTOR), in the order of 
occurrence. 
If there is more than one point causing an alarm, the 
display shows each point for 3 sec before showing the 
next one.  
When the last alarm is shown, the next display is the 
first alarm. 
Your system might be programmed so that you cannot 
silence some fire alarms until the fire event clears.  
The 
*Alarm Silenced* message continues to alternate 
with idle text as a reminder that it is still possible to 
view the text of the points in alarm by using the View 
Alarm Memory function (refer to View Alarm Memory 
(CMD + 4 + 0)
 on page 23 for more information.  
To clear the event memory and remove the 
*Alarm 
Silenced* message from the display, press the Clear 
Display button. 
 
The display shows the instructions for clearing the 
message. Enter a valid passcode and press the 
Clear 
button. 
If a fire trouble still exists, the 
*Alarm Silenced* 
display will not be cleared. To remove this display, the 
fire point(s) must be returned to normal. 
If you have not cleared the 
*Alarm Silenced* display 
and wish to review cleared events, use CMD
 40.
