e.
Operation: Operation shall be entirely automatic under control of
the central processor except for simple control key operations
required for control processor, map display, and sensor tests;
alarm acknowledgement; zone status change operations; map display
audible alarm silencing; and audio annunciation. Alarm reporting
and display unit shall immediately annunciate any change in zone
status. Unit integral printer shall print a permanent record of
each alarm in red characters; other printouts shall be printed in
black characters. Monitoring system shall not annunciate any
change of detection subsystem zone status to alarm when the
annunciated zone status is in ACCESS. Regardless of zone status
served by a control unit, monitoring system shall immediately
annunciate a change of control unit status to communications
failure when communications with that control unit are
interrupted. [Each map display shall immediately annunciate any
change of zone status other than a change from ACCESS to ALARM, to
the extent permitted by the zone status indicators installed for
the map displays. Each map display shall continuously display the
current zone status, to the extent permitted by the zone status
indicators installed for map displays.] Unit shall provide
capability to display immediately the current status of a zone by
simple keyboard operations, except that while the unit is
annunciating an unacknowledged zone alarm, keyboard operations
other than alarm acknowledgement shall not be possible. When an
alarm is first annunciated, the central processor shall preclude
other operator control keyboard operations until after the
operator has acknowledged the alarm by operation of one control
key. Unit shall provide capability to change zone status from
ALARM, after alarm acknowledgement, or ACCESS to SECURE, from
ALARM after alarm acknowledgement, or SECURE to ACCESS, or from
ACCESS to SECURE by simple control keyboard operations. When the
operator attempts to change zone status to SECURE while there is a
detection system alarm output in that zone, unit shall immediately
annunciate an alarm for that zone.
