AFP-3030 Operations Manual — P/N DOC-01-039:A 26/11/2015 32Mass Notification Fault Event Operation of the Control PanelFollowing is a typical MN supervisory message that would appear on a panel display:Figure 2.10 Sample MN Supervisory Point Message2.9.2 How to Respond to an Active MN SupervisoryIf the control panel indicates a MN Supervisory condition, the operator can do the following:1. Press the SILENCE BUZZER key to acknowledge the MN Supervisory event, steady theSUPERVISORY LED, and silence the panel sounder. An acknowledge message is sent to theremote annunciators, history buffers, installed printers, and CRT-2s2. Press the MORE INFO soft key to display the MORE INFORMATION screen and viewadditional information on the device and possibly preprogrammed text for recommendedaction. (Refer to Figure 1.9 on page 11 for an example of this screen and an explanation of itsfields.)3. Investigate and correct the condition causing the Supervisory.4. For tracking MN Supervisory events: If the supervisory condition was initiated by a devicethat is programmed with an MN supervisory type code that tracks, the panel will return toSystems Normal once the condition has been corrected.For latching MN Supervisory events: If the supervisory condition was initiated by a devicethat is programmed with an MN supervisory type code that latches upon activation or aGeneral MN Supervisory event occurs, press the RESET key to clear the event.The panel will send a system normal message to the History buffer, installed printer and annuncia-tors.2.9.3 How to Interpret Type CodesThe Type Code that displays in the MN Supervisory message indicates the function of the point thatinitiates the MN Supervisory. For example, a monitor module with a ESC/MN SUPT Type Codemeans that the module monitors the state of a mass notification device. If the Type ID code is unfa-miliar, refer to Appendix A, “Software Type ID Codes”, on page 63. This appendix is an alphabeti-cal list of Type ID codes and an explanation of each.2.10 Mass Notification Fault Event2.10.1 How the Control Panel Indicates a Mass Notification FaultA mass notification fault point activates when a device programmed as MN Fault activates due to an elec-trical short or open. The panel will react differently depending on whether or not there are higher priorityunacknowledged events.When no higher priority unacknowledged events are exist, the control panel:• Produces a pulsed audible tone (if the piezo is enabled)O T H E R : 2 O F 2A C K N O W L E D G E D M N S U P E R V I S O R YS E C U R I T Y O F F I C E M A I N B L D GM o n i t o r L 0 1 M 1 3 4 Z F 2 1 E S C / M N S U P T1 0 : 3 5 : 1 7 A T U E 0 2 D E C 2 0 1 4 L 0 1 M 1 3 4M O R E I N F O . . .1 O T H L 0 2 D 0 0 3D e t e c t o r L 0 2 D 0 0 32 O T H L 0 1 M 1 3 4M o n i t o r L 0 1 M 1 3 4A L M : 0 S U P : 0 F L T : 0 D I S : 0 O T H E R : 21 1 : 5 8 : 4 3 A T U E 0 2 , D E C , 2 0 1 4
