WHAT TO DO IF THE FIRE ALARM PANEL SHOWS AN ALARM (RED LED)

Write down the LCD reading and which LEDs are lit (either in the log book, or on a piece of
paper for transferring to the log book later)
Follow the building procedures for fire alarm activation.
When the building has been evacuated, the sounders can be silenced by entering access code 123 and pressing the Stop Sounder
button, then pressing the Silence Buzzer button. (Note that the sounders may take up to 8 seconds to stop)
If there is no sign of fire, investigate the area that reported the fire CAREFULLY. Check for a detector with its LED on, or SOUNDER
BASE STROBE LIGHT flashing or a call point with its RED LED lit.
If a detector caused the alarm, look for any innocent phenomena that could have activated it
(Steam, cooking food, exhaust smoke, excessive dust etc can all activate a smoke detector.).
If anything is found, try to clear the room by opening a window.
If a fire is discovered, call the fire brigade.
To reset the panel press the reset button.
If the panel goes back into alarm, silence the sounders and call the engineer.
WHAT TO DO IF THE FIRE ALARM PANEL SHOWS A FAULT (YELLOW LED)
Write down the LCD reading and which LEDs are lit (either in the log book, or on a piece of paper for transferring to the log book
later)
All fault indications will need the service engineer’s attention. Call the engineer as soon as possible. Note that when the alarm is in a
fault condition, the majority of the system may still function correctly. Extra vigilance should be paid in the area with the fault. The
alarm may not be operational in this area.
The panel`s internal buzzer can be silenced by entering access code 123 and pressing the Silence buzzer button. If the fault comes
and goes, the panel will buzz every time the fault happens. If this is not acceptable you may be able to disable the zone that has the
fault. (see page 10)

1. FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL SAFETY ISSUES

NOTE: When the Simplicity Plus panel is operating normally, i.e. not being tended by service personnel, the access door must be
closed and locked. After locking, the key MUST be removed and ONLY held by the responsible person and / or the service personnel.
It must under NO CIRCUMSTANCES be held by the user. This equipment will operate safely provided it has been installed correctly in
compliance with the Installation Manual.
It is recommended that the system is serviced frequently. It is customary to arrange a regular maintenance contract with a
competent organisation. (Ask the installation company for recommendations). The system needs a thorough maintenance check
annually at the very minimum.
If any part of this Fire Alarm Control Panel becomes damaged, contact the company responsible for system maintenance to arrange
repair / replacement.
European Union Directives Conformance Statement

This product has been manufactured in conformance with the requirements of all applicable EU Council
Directives. The Declaration of Conformance for this product is located at the following Address: GLT
Exports Ltd, 72-78 Morfa Road, Hafod, Swansea, SA1 2EN, United Kingdom.
2. THE PURPOSE OF A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

1. A Fire Alarm System is used to provide an early warning of a fire, so that the property can be evacuated and
the fire extinguished if it can be safely tackled, or the local fire brigade called, according to the company
evacuation procedure.
2. An Alarm can be raised from Smoke or Heat Detectors, or manually by a person operating a Manual Call
Point.
3. To split the building into Zones, each covering a different area of the building. This will indicate which area of
the system is giving the alarm (or fault).
4. To start its sounders, and indicate which zone (area of the building) has signalled the fire. It will also activate
its auxiliary relay.
Fault Monitoring
The panel checks all circuits for line integrity. If a part of the system has a problem, which may affect its
operation, a fault warning must be given by the fire alarm panel (LED & buzzer indication). The fault relay will
also activate.
Disablements
An engineer may be required to work on part of a system, while the system is still active (eg extending a
detection zone). During such circumstances, it would be advisable to disable that zone, so that it will not give
false alarms. Similarly you may wish to disable a zone that has a fault that has not been fixed, or a zone
covering an area with a temporary unusual environment, such as an area which is dusty because of
construction work etc.
Power Supply Equipment- General Description.

The Infinity ID2 has a switch mode power supply capable of supplying 1.2 amps in total. It contains a
current limited output for charging sealed lead acid batteries (3.2 Ah maximum). The PSE is monitored for main
supply failure, the battery not taking a charge and low battery voltage. If the battery voltage drops below
approximately 20VDC (a fault condition), the battery charging current will be turned off , thus stopping charging.

3. USER RESPONSIBILITIES & MAINTAINENCE OF THE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM,

INCLUDING THE FACP & ITS INTEGRAL PSE
According to the British Standard Code for Fire Detection and Alarm Systems for Commercial Buildings
(BS5839: Pt 1: 2002), the owner or person having control of the premises should appoint a responsible person
to oversee the effective operation of the Fire Alarm System (Clause 47.1).
Below is a summary of the main functions the “Responsible Person” is expected to carry out. This summary is
not intended to replace Section seven (User responsibilities) of BS5839: Pt 1: 2002 (available from BSI, or your
local library). It is meant to give a brief outline of user responsibilities for the safe upkeep of the Fire Alarm
System. The number in brackets shows the relevant BS5839: Pt 1: 2002 clauses.
The responsible person must:-
1. Have sufficient authority to carry out the duties associated with being the responsible person (47.2.a)
2. Check the system at least once every 24 hours to ensure there are no faults present (47.2.b)
3. Ensure there are arrangements for testing and maintaining the system (47.2.c)
4. Ensure the log book is up to date, and available for inspection (47.2.d)
5. Instruct all relevant occupants on the basic operation of the system, including start evacuation, silence
alarms, silence faults and system reset (47.2.e)
6. Take appropriate action to limit the rate of false alarms (47.2.f)
7. Ensure that all detectors and manual call points remain unobstructed at all times (47.2.g)
8. Liase with maintenance personnel to ensure that cleaning, maintenance or building work does not interfere
with the functioning and reliability of the fire alarm system (47.2.h).
9. Ensure any changes to the system are recorded with updated drawings, operating instructions etc (47.2.i)
10. Ensure that there are spare parts (especially Call point elements) held on site (47.2.j.1&2)
11. In the event of a prealarm, determine the cause & take appropriate action (predetermined fire routine if the
cause is the start of a fire, arrange maintenance if the cause is a contaminated detector head) (47.3)
With the Infinity ID2 Fire Alarm Panel, we recommend the following tests are carried out: -
Daily Inspection
 Check that the green Power LED is lit.
 If there are any yellow fault LEDs lit, or the green Power LED is not lit, report the fault(s) to the designated site
maintenance engineer.
Weekly Test (you may wish to temporarily disconnect the Aux relay during the following Tests)
 Enter access code 123. Press the LED Test button. Check that all LEDs light, and the buzzer sounds.
 Set off a manual call point or sensor to test the Fire Alarm panel responds and all the sounders activate.
 Do not test the same device each week. Test a different zone each week using a different call point or detector so that
eventually, all the devices will be tested.
 Reset the System by pressing (Stop sounders, Silence Buzzer, Reset).
 Check that no call points or fire detectors are obstructed in any way. (e.g. New furniture or decorations)
Quarterly Test (to be carried out by authorised service personnel only)
 Check that any servicing or repairs required by all previous logbook entries has been undertaken.
 Visual inspection of the batteries and connections. Check the alarm sounders work on battery only.
 Activate a device from each zone to test the fire alarm. (As per weekly test).
Annual Test (to be carried out by authorised service personnel only)
 Check every detector, call point, sounder and all auxiliary equipment for correct operation.
 Check Switch Mode cage INPUT Voltage (29.5 VAC), Charger Voltage (27.6V off load) & Battery Voltage (25-27V)
Every Five Years (to be carried out by authorised service personnel only)
 Carry out a complete wiring check in accordance with the testing and inspection requirements of the relevant National
wiring regulations (in the UK this is the IEE Wiring Regulations). The Batteries should be replaced because SLA batteries
have a working life of 5 years.

4. PANEL INDICATIONS & CONTROLS
4.1 PANEL INDICATIONS

The Infinity ID2 has been designed to be as straight forward as possible. To help achieve this it has been designed so that
its LCD screen is the primary display. The display gives you more detailed information than is possible for simply using LEDs.
Zonal LEDs are still used for indicating fire conditions with Red coloured LEDs. A detailed description of the event will also appear on
the LCD screen containing the type of device (i.e. Detector or MCP), Zone description, Device unique location & description. This is a
much safer and quicker way to locate a potential fire than simply giving a ‘zone’ that the fire could be located within.
4.2 PANEL CONTROLS

The controls on the Infinity ID2 are grouped together to try to be as user friendly as possible. The Silence, Reset & Start/Stop
Sounder buttons are the main control buttons. The previous & Next buttons by the LCD are used to scroll between
Messages/menus. The General Test button is used to control the one man test mode. The General Disablement button is used to
select disablements. The numeric section is for entering access codes, and for entering device addresses/ID using the mobile
phone type alpha/numeric keys.
4.3 IN THE EVENT OF AN ALARM

After the site has been deemed safe for return, to return the panel to normal: -
1. Enter access code 123 (access on LED will illuminate).
2. Press Stop/Start = turn off external sounders
3. Press Silence = turn off the panels buzzer
4. Record the LCD details in the Fire Alarm Log Book
5. Press Reset = return panel to normal condition.
4.4 ACCESS LEVELS

The Infinity ID2 has the following access levels:
i. QUIESCENT STATE
When the Panel is in its Normal state the LCD Screen and indicator lights on the front of the enclosure give a comprehensive
overview of the System’s current status. Any Fire and Fault conditions are clearly displayed, and any disablements highlighted. For
detailed descriptions of what each indicator means, please refer to Section 4.5.
The only functions that can be performed by the user when the panel is in the normal or quiescent state are:
 Scrolling between alarms using the Previous & Next buttons.
 Putting the Panel into the Controls Enabled state – see below.
ii. CONTROLS ENABLED

This access level is obtained by entering the user access code 123 . Here the user can start or stop the external sounders, silence the
panel’s internal buzzer, or reset the panel. The numeric keypad is also enabled which allows the user to enter the codes for
configuration or test modes.
The user menu can also be accessed. From here the user can view various system settings, such as device labels, zone contents and
the event log.
iii. CONFIGURATION MENU – FOR INSTALLATION /COMMISSIONING ENGINEER ONLY
This access level is obtained by entering the engineering code. This is a factory preset code which cannot be changed (see
Installation Manual). Here the engineer can edit loop contents edit text labels, and several other panel set-up options.
iv. TEST MODE SELECTION – FOR TEST ENGINEER ONLY
This access level is obtained by pressing the test button, and entering the test code. This is a factory preset code which cannot be
changed. Here the user can put any of the zones or sounder circuits into test mode. Turn the keyswitch back to the off position to
exit this mode.
4.5 CHECKING THE PANELS INDICATION LEDS

Enter access code 123, then press the LED test button . All the LEDs on the front panel will light for 3 seconds, and the panel’s
internal buzzer will also sound. The LCD will show some configuration during the test
4.6 WHAT THE LEDS MEAN

The LEDs on the Infinity ID2 give the following basic information:
 Zone RED – Indicate a Zone is in Fire
 Access On Yellow – Indicates Access Level 1 or 2 is operative
 General Disablement Yellow – Something has been manually disabled – check LCD menu for details
 General Test Yellow – An engineer has entered a unique code and the panel is in ‘Test Mode’
 More Data Yellow – More information is available use Next/Prev buttons to view
 Fire Red – Panel is in fire or evacuate mode
 Fault Yellow – There is a fault – check LCD screen/fault logs for details
 Sys Fault Yellow – There is a problem with the system, may require factory support
 Power Green – Power supply to panel is healthy.

5. THE FIRE CONDITION
5.1 HOW THE SIMPLICITY INDICATES AN ALARM

When the Infinity ID2 Fire Alarm Panel
is set into alarm by a Detector or
Manual Call Point located in a zone that
is not already in alarm it will: -
 Light the General Fire LED and

appropriate Zone Fire LED(s)
on the front of its enclosure.
 Sound Internal buzzer
 Start the Alarm Sounder and
Auxiliary output
The building evacuation procedure

should now be followed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If a zone has been

disabled, it can not be triggered into
Alarm. This should be remembered
when disabling part of the system (see
Disabling zones or sounders later in this
manual).
5.2 TO TURN OFF THE ALARM SOUNDERS

The Alarm Sounders may be silenced by entering access code 123 and momentarily pressing the Stop Sounders button.
The Alarm Sounders will cease to sound but the light(s) for the Zone(s) in Alarm and the red General Fire light
will stay lit. The Auxiliary Fire relay will remain active. (The Panels internal buzzer can also be silenced by
pressing the Silence Buzzer button ).
5.3 A SECOND ALARM SIGNAL FROM A NEW DETECTION ZONE

If another detection Zone is activated after the Alarm Sounders have been silenced, the panel will: -
 Restart the sounders
 Light the Zone Fire LED(s) for any new Zone(s) in alarm
 Keep the light(s) for the previous Zone(s) in fire, and General Fire lit.
5.4 TURNING ON THE ALARM SOUNDERS FROM THE FACP (I.E. TO EVACUATE THE BUILDING).
 Enter the user code 123
 Momentarily pressing the Start/Stop will cause the Alarm sounders to sound.
 Pressing the Start/Stop button again will Silence the Alarm Sounders.
 Note: If the Alarm Sounders have been disabled, pressing the Stop/Start button will have no effect.
5.5 RESETTING THE PANEL

 Check the cause of the alarm activation. If the cause of the alarm was an activated call point, reset it (if resettable type),
or fit a new glass element (if glass type). If the cause of the alarm was by detector activation (e.g. cooking smoke), the
smoke will have to be cleared from the room before the panel can be reset. Reset the panel by pressing the reset button
after the sounders and panel buzzer have been silenced.
 If the call point is still active, or the detector is still smoky, this will cause another alarm straight after the panel is reset,
and the alarm bells will start again.

6. THE FAULT CONDITION
6.1 DIFFERENT TYPES OF FAULT

The fire alarm monitors itself, and any equipment connected to it, for any faults that can occur. If a fault occurs, the Panel
responds by activating its Internal buzzer and lighting the General Fault light and displaying the fault information on its LCD
display. The Panel’s Fault relay will also activate. Typical faults are described below: -
Zone Fault
1. Cable Break
2. Cable Short Circuit
3. Device Fault
a. Missing device
b. Removed detector
c. Double Address
d. Device Changed
Power Supply Fault

1. Mains Fault
2. Battery removed
3. Battery low
4. Battery High Impedance
Earth Fault
1. Earth Fault Positive
2. Earth Fault Negative.
Sounder Fault
1. Sounder Open Circuit
2. Sounder Short Circuit
3. Faults on an addressable sounder will be indicated as a device fault.
System Fault
The System Fault LED lights if the Panel’s micro-processor has encountered a problem and has rebooted. This does not occur during
normal operation., typically after excessive electrical interference, or if the contents of its memory have been corrupted. This fault
can only be cleared by resetting the panel. If the fault re-occurs within 1 hour, this is indicative of a corrupt memory and expert
advice should be sought.
Due to the nature of a System
Fault (CPU not running
correctly), the exact contents of
the display can not be
determined. It could be blank,
filled with squares, garbled, or
even say system normal if the
CPU has re-started correctly.

6.2 WHAT TO DO IF A FAULT CONDITION OCCURS

If a fault occurs, the responsible person should:
 Enter access code 123 to enable controls and press silence buzzer button to silence the fault buzzer.
 Write down the fault (s) in the Log Book at the back of this Manual. Take appropriate action to correct the fault (Usually by
contacting the service engineer)
On the Infinity ID2 panel, the fault indications (except system fault) are non latching. That is, when the fault has been cleared, the
fault indication will turn off. When all faults have been cleared, the panel will return to its quiescent (normal) condition.
When a fault has been rectified the indicator light for that Fault is automatically turned off. If all Faults are cleared, the General Fault
light will go out and the Panel’s Internal Sounder will be silent (if not already muted).

6.3 OTHER LED INDICATIONS

DISABLEMENTS
TEST MODE

7. DISABLEMENTS
7.1 REASONS FOR DISABLING CERTAIN PARTS OF A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

Certain parts of this Fire Alarm Panel can be temporarily disabled (i.e. switched off) to suit prevailing conditions. For example, if
there is a risk of a False Alarm in a zone, for example, from vehicle exhaust smoke in a loading bay, it is possible for the user to
disable that zone during the risk period and then enable it again afterwards. During a disablement of a zone(s), no fire or fault signal
will be processed for that zone(s). Only zone(s) in a non-alarm state can be disabled, that is zones already in a fire condition cannot
be disabled.
External sounders can also be disabled as could be required in certain conditions
7.2 TO DISABLE A ZONE AND/OR EXTERNAL SOUNDERS

1. Enter user access code 123; Zone Disablement
Zone 1
2. Press GENERAL DISABLEMENT button a Zone Enabled

5. Press NEXT BUTTON until the required zone or sounder circuit is DISPLAYED. Press Zone Disabled
ENTER to confirm the disablement. Disabled Devices: 0
The screen will now show that the zone is disabled, and the GENERAL
DISABLEMENTLED will light. This section is now disabled.
6. If more than one zone (or sounder) needs to be disabled, then press DISABLEMENT SELECT again until the required zone
(or sounder) is selected.
7. If the panel needs to be taken out of SELECT DISABLEMENT MODE (e.g. to silence a fault on another part of the system),
press the CANCEL button.
7.3 TO ENABLE A ZONE AND/OR EXTERNAL SOUNDERS

1. Enter user access code (123 if required)
2. Press GENERAL DISABLEMENT button

9. FIRE ALARM LOG BOOK

It is recommended that this LOG BOOK section of the Manual be maintained by the responsible person(s) on site, who should
ensure every event is properly recorded (including fire alarm conditions, failures, tests, temporary disconnections, disablements,
enablements, dates of installing engineers’ visits together with a note of any outstanding work or panel conditions). This LOG BOOK
must be available for inspection at all times.
You can photocopy this log book to provide extra pages for when this book is full.
BS5839 part 1 recommends that fire alarm events should be subdivided & recorded on separate sheets in the log book. The event
categories are:
 Maintenance work.
 False alarms - where the sounders have activated with no signs of a fire.
 Any other events - this would be genuine alarms or faults.
