4.5 Entering and exiting authorization level 2
To enter authorization level 2 from authorization level 1, you have to enter the 4-digit user code pro-
grammed by the installer. You have two possibilities to start this:
Scroll the main menu points to the menu point [Authorization code:] by using the '→'- or the '←'-
button, or
Enter your user code directly and arrive automatically at the menu point [Authorization code:] with-
out scrolling through the menus.
This menu-quick-operation is not possible while you are viewing the event memory.
You enter the 4-digit code and confirm the entry by using the '↵'-button. One '*' is displayed on the LC-
display for every entered digit. If the entry was correct, the second line of the LC-display shows [User
level] and the green light-emitting diode 'Authorization' is illuminated on the panel.
By entering authorization level 2, different important parts of the system (e.g., transmitting devices,
actuations, etc.) can be put out of operation automatically depending on regional restrictions and regu-
lations and the setting of the parameters by the authorized installer (which are also dependent on the
regional restrictions and regulations). Devices activated earlier are not put out of operation. By return-
ing to authorization level 1, the parts are put into operation again.
Do not stay in authorization level 2 longer than needed for operation! Return to authorization
level 1 immediately after completing the task, so that the disabled parts can be put into opera-
tion again.
If you have entered the wrong code, [Wrong entry!] will be displayed on the LC-display, the buzzer
will send a short signal and you will have to repeat the input. You can clear the entry by using the 'esc'-
button and then can begin to enter the code again. The number of wrong inputs is not limited.
If a first-fire alarm occurs while entering the user code, the code entry is rejected and the fire alarm is
displayed. You have to begin your entry again subsequently.
To return from authorization level 2 to authorization level 1, you have to scroll to the main menu point
[Exit authorization?] either by using the menu or by using the menu-quick-operation (see page 33 in
Chapter 4.3.1: "Menu-quick-operation"), and confirm the menu point by using the '↵'-button. The LC-
display shows the hint [User level exited] and the green light-emitting diode 'Authorization' on the
panel is switched off.
15 minutes after any button was pressed last, the fire detection control panel Series BC216 leaves
authorization level 2 automatically.
If you press the button '↑' in the menu point [Authorization code:], the display shows an information
for 5 seconds. This information enables the manufacturer to reset a lost installer code (for further in-
formation see Part C of the User Manual). If you have pressed the button erroneously do not pay atten-
tion to the information; it will vanish automatically.
4.6 Entering and exiting authorization level 3
To enter authorization level 3 (this level is reserved for the installer) from authorization level 1, you
have to enter the 5-digit installer code in the same way as described starting page 36 in Chapter 4.5:
"Entering and exiting authorization level 2", by using either the menu or the menu-quick-operation. If
the entry was correct, the LC-display shows [Installer level] and the green light-emitting diode
'Authorization' flashes on the panel.
By entering authorization level 3, and depending on the parameters set by the authorized installer,
transmitting devices or actuations can be put out of operation automatically. Earlier activated devices
are not put out of operation. By returning to authorization level 1 the parts are put back into operation
again.
