1. Introduction
This document contains the necessary information
for operating the DUO-CEL Conventional Fire
Detection control panel.
2. User Operation - Fire and Fault
Conditions
This panel is capable of operating the fire alarm
sounders in various ways:
Sounder circuits can operate per zone or all
together.
Sounder circuits can be continuous or pulsed.
All users should be fully aware of the particular
configuration of their system and should have
received training in the basic operation of the
system.
The following information is provided as a quick
reference guide only.
2.1 If a fire is detected:
On the DUO-CEL Fire Alarm Panel:
o The general Fire LED will flash and the buzzer
will sound
o The relevant zone Fire LED(s) will flash,
indicating the location of the fire.
o The Fire Signal output and LED will operate.
o The Fire Alarm sounders will operate
immediately (pulsed or continuous, zonally or
together, as per configuration).
o The Fire Relay will operate immediately
Locate the source of the fire alarm (an LED will be
visible on the detector which has been activated).
2.2 To Silence the fire alarm sounders:
Turn the Access Key to the vertical position.
Press the Silence/Resound Alarms button once
only.
The fire alarm sounders will become silent.
The General Fire LED and the Zone Fire
LED(s) will become steady.
Remove the Access Controls Key to lock the
controls.
2.3 To Resound the fire alarm
sounders after silencing:
Turn the Access Controls Key on the panel
door to the vertical position.
Press the Silence/Resound Alarms button once
only.
Remove the Access Controls Key to lock the
controls.
2.4 To reset the panel from a Fire
Alarm:
After the fire has been extinguished, turn the
Access Controls Key on the panel door to the
vertical position.
Press the Reset button.
The General Fire LED and the Zone Fire
LED(s) will clear.
Remove the Access Controls Key to lock the
controls.
2.5 To operate the fire alarm sounders
in Evacuate Mode:
Turn the Access Controls Key on the panel
door to the vertical position.
Press the Evacuate button.
The Alert/Evac LED will illuminate and the
panel buzzer will operate.
All fire alarm sounders will operate
continuously.
Press the Silence/Resound Alarm button to
silence the fire alarm sounders and clear the
Alert/Evac LED.
Remove the Access Controls Key to lock the
controls.
2.6 If a fault is detected:
The panel buzzer will sound.
The General Fault LED will flash.
One or more fault LEDs will flash; identifying
which element of the system is faulty.
When the fault is corrected the fault indication
will clear automatically, except for the Fuse
Failed indication, which requires the Reset
button to be pressed.
2.7 To Silence the Buzzer:
Press the Silence Buzzer button.
The buzzer will silence.
2.8 System Fault Indication:
In the event of a complete system failure, a System
Fault will be indicated:
The SYSTEM FAULT and GENERAL
FAULT LED illuminate. All other LEDs will
be extinguished.
The internal buzzer will sound continuously.
Warning. In this condition the panel is not
functional and fire alarm cover is no longer
available.

2.9 User actions in the event of a fault:
Determine the area affected by the fault and
decide whether special actions (such as fire
patrols) are needed in that area.
Call your service engineer immediately.
Record the event in the system log book.
3. Panel Operation.
3.1 Disablement & Test Conditions
Each zone circuit can be disabled or placed into the
test mode individually.
All sounder circuits can be disabled or placed into
the test mode as a group.
The Fire Signal output can be disabled or placed
into test mode.
3.1.1 To test, disable or re-enable one
or more circuits:
1. Turn the Access Key to the vertical position.
2. Press the Select button to enter the Select
Mode.
The Controls On LED will flash.
The cursor indication will pulse rapidly on
the yellow Zone 1 fault LED.
The yellow fault LED for any circuit
currently in test or disabled will be
illuminated.
3. Press the Select button to move the cursor to
the required circuit fault LED.
For each circuit the cursor is on, the General
Disablement & General Test LEDs will indicate
the current status for that circuit:
i. General Test & General Disablement LEDS
OFF: - Circuit is in normal operating mode.
ii. General Test LED pulsing: - Circuit is in
Test mode.
iii. General Disablement LED pulsing: -
Circuit is Disabled.
4. To change the status of the selected circuit,
press the Disable or Test button as required:
Circuit is currently not disabled or in test: -
Press the Disable button to disable, Press
the Test button to test.
Circuit is currently disabled: - Press the
Disable button to re-enable, Press the Test
button to test (the disabled condition will
also be cleared).
Circuit is currently in test: - Press the Test
button to clear the test, press the Disable
button to disable (the test condition will
also be cleared).
5. To exit from the Select mode, either remove the
Access Controls Key to lock the controls or
press the Select button repeatedly to scroll the
flashing cursor through the remaining circuits
until the Controls On LED stops flashing and
the flashing cursor is cleared.
3.1.2 To view only the disabled
circuits:
1. Turn the Access Key to the vertical position.
2. Press and hold the Disable button. Only the
General Disablement LED and the fault LEDs
of any disabled circuits will be illuminated.
3. Release the Disable button to return the display
to normal.
3.1.3 To view only the circuits in test:
1. Turn the Access Key to the vertical position.
2. Press and hold the Test button. Only the
General Test LED and the fault LEDs of any
circuits in test will be illuminated.
3. Release the Test button to return the display to
normal.
3.2 Display Test
1. Remove the Access Controls Key to lock the
controls.
2. Press the Test button. All LEDs on the display
will illuminate and the internal buzzer will
sound for 5 seconds.
4. DUO-CEL Repeater Panel Operation
The repeater panel operation is identical to the
Alarm panel except that the disablement & Test
facilities cannot be controlled from the repeater.
The display is similar but the Disable and Select
buttons are not present.
5. Routine Testing and maintenance
