1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Fighter Fire Panel. The panel's main design goal was low
cost (using conventional detectors) high modularity and exible, easy installation with
the use of a 4 wire system interconnect bus.
The Fighter panel is an advanced multipurpose analogue conventional re alarm panel.
It is expandable by means of modules that interconnect with 4 wire bus system. This
allows the panel to be expanded up to 72 re alarm zones, 72 relays and 8 keyboards.
It can also be used for re extinguishing applications.
The panel is fully customizable via a user interface from the keyboards. All parameters
are displayed with hierarchical menus in 3 different access levels in an easy to under-
stand and use manner. The system general status can be easily viewed at a glance
from the led indicators on the keypads and the user can retrieve more information from
the LCD character display and perform actions using the keyboard.
The layout and operation is designed with the user in mind and meant to be user friend-
ly. The menus are designed to be logical and easily accessable.
2. System operation & Features
2.1 Keyboard description
Figure 1. Fighter keypad
Each keypad (Figure 1) has several buttons with some having different functions de-
pending on the system’s state. The following table summarizes each key's functionality.
The following table summarizes each key’s functionality:
[ACC] Button/Indicator
Enters access level 2 or 3. The corresponding access code is
required.
Factory default access codes are "2222" and "3333" for access
levels 2 and 3 respectively.
[TEST] Button/Indicator
Tests the keypad by turning on all LEDs, the buzzer and dis-
play a test pattern on the LCD screen.
NOTE: The TEST LED which is combined with the test button,
is also used as communication status indicator. When the LED
is lit the keypad is sending data to the main board.

2.1.1 Data entry operation
The LCD and Keypad are used in various operations for data entry such as zone de-
scriptions, dates, numeric settings etc. During data entry mode a designated area on
the LCD is used for the input. The LCD characters allocated for the data eld are en-
closed in square brackets Figure 2. If the length of the data is greater than the available
LCD character space, horizontal scrolling takes place. In this case the Left or Right (or
both) square brackets enclosing the data are changed to "less than" or "greater than"
signs indicating the direction of existing but not visible characters.
The data entry takes place in two different modes:
- Numeric data entry: The keypad is in numeric mode, and every time a key is pressed
the corresponding number is produced on the screen.
- T9 entry mode: Each key has a set of characters (4 or 5) that are selected by prompt-
ly pressing the same key as many times needed. The characters allocated to each key
are printed above them on the keypad mask (Figure 1). This mode is very popular with
cellular phones and used for SMS text messaging.

Figure 2. Data entry examples
The operation of the keys during data entry is as follows:
<0> to <9>: Characters 0-9, A-Z and symbols.
<ALRM>: Switch keypad mode between Numeric and T9.
<FAULT>: Delete the character that the cursor is over.
<CLR>: Cancel editing and exit data entry mode.
<ENTER>: Accept editing saving data eld and exit data entry mode.
<Left Arrow>, <Right Arrow>: Move cursor in the corresponding direction.
<Up Arrow>, Down Arrow>: Increase or decrease the character or numeric value
highlighted by the cursor.

2.2 Access Levels
The re panel during it's operation is said to be in a specic access level; from 1 to 3.
Each access level denes what operations are allowed and what are protected. Each
Access Level may be activated or "entered" by entering the requested code (or PIN) for
the corresponding access level. Factory default access codes are "2222" and "3333"
for access levels 2 and 3 respectively. There are operations and menus that require an
elevated access level (other than 1, see Table 2 for operations summary). If the user
initiates an operation that requires increased access level the system will prompt for the
PIN, and once successfully entered, it will execute the operation and return to access
level 1. Alternatively the user may request the menus of access level 2 or 3 (by pressing
[ACC] key). In this case he/she will be prompted for the PIN and once successful, the
access level menu will be displayed for further operations. While the access is granted,
any operation under the specic access level is possible and the user will not be asked
for the PIN every time. Elevated Access levels are canceled if the user willingly exits (by
pressing <CLR>) or the menu times out due to user inactivity.
The Table 2 summarizes the basic functions and their required access level.

Table 2. Basic functions required access levels
Since the system may have more than one installed key display units, an interlocking
system ensures that only one is active at access levels 2 or 3. In this case the [ACC]
key is constantly lit on the active key display. On the rest of the key display units the
[ACC] key is producing three short ashes every 5 seconds. The user may press [ACC]
on a locked key display to nd out which unit is currently in elevated access mode.
Figure 3 shows the information screen. To ensure that the system will never be locked
untenanted in elevated access level, it detects user inactivity and drops to access level
1 automatically after a period of 30 seconds.

Figure 3. Access denied information screen
2.3 Users (master / normal, installer)
The re panel apart from having two elevated access levels, also provides 9 users for
access level 2; one Master and 8 Normal users. All users are limited to access level 2
operations (including the Master user). The Master user though may change the PIN
codes for himself as well as all 8 Normal Users. Each Normal user can change only
him/her own PIN. This system ensures that the Master user can have control over who
is authorized to operate the system without disclosing his/her own PIN. This ensures
future user control in the case of access revocation for a specic user.
The Access level 3 (A.L.3) user has full control over the entire system, including the
Master and Normal user codes, programming and operation of the system. In other
words Access level 3 (A.L.3) may perform operations that belong to the Access level 2
(A.L.2) group.
