6. Front panel controlsThe front panel contains controls for operating the repeater.SILENCE BUZZER - This button can be operated at any time and will act as a lamp test buttonwhen the system is quiet. If there is an alarm or fault condition operation of this button will silencethe internal buzzer.MORE FIRES – In the event of more fires than can be displayed at any one time, the other fireevents can be viewed by cycling through them with this button.MORE EVENTS - In the event of more other events than can be displayed at any one time, theother events can be viewed by cycling through them with this button.SILENCE ALARM – Acknowledges the fire alarm and silences all sounders.RESET – Resets the main control panel from a fire condition and latching fault conditions.RE-SOUND ALARM – Activates all sounder outputs.7. IndicationsMost information is presented via the large alphanumeric display and supplements LED indicationswhich are provided for the following:FIRE – Red indicator illuminates flashing when there are any active fires on the system andcontinuously when all fire alarms have been acknowledged.POWER ON – Green indicator illuminated to indicate that the unit is being supplied with power.FAULT – Yellow indicator illuminates to indicate a fault on the fire alarm system.DISABLEMENT – Yellow indicator illuminates to indicate a disablement of one or more parts of thefire alarm system.8. Powering the repeater panelEnsure that the panel is free from swarf; wire ends, knockout discs and any other debris.Connect the incoming 24V DC whilst carefully observing the polarity. If a local power source is beingused, then a volt free normally closed contact from the power supply should be connected to thePSU FLT terminals so that power faults are reported.When supplied, the PSU FLT input is fitted with a link. The link should be removed and discardedbefore connection of the local power supply fault contact.The current consumption of the repeater with the PSU FLT input activated is 80mA. The effect on thebattery capacity of the power supply which is powering the repeater should be considered whenconnecting repeaters to a system.9. Configuring the repeater panelThe repeater panel is configured via the network connection by a PC connected to a control panel,which is in communication with the repeater. Repeaters that have not been configured will default todisplaying all events from all panels connected to the network.Repeater panels need to have an address allocated to them so that the main control panel can sendthe configuration information to the right one and also detect if a repeater goes missing from thenetwork.Man-1081_Syncro_Focus+_04 Page 5 of 13
