To return from authorization level 3 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 and confirm the
menu point by using the '↵'-button. The LC-display shows the hint [Installer level exited] and the green
light-emitting diode 'Authorization' on the panel is turned off. If any parameters were changed, the con-
trol panel will restart automatically in order to make the new parameters effective. Further information
can be found in Part C of the User Manual.
In the same way as when pressing the button 'Panel reset', all current alarms, faults, etc. are reset by re-
starting. See from page 31 in Chapter 4.2.1: "Resetting the fire detection control panel".

accessible in authorization level 2!
Scroll the menu points of the main menu by using the buttons '← →', and scroll the menu points of the
corresponding submenu as well as the list of the information to be displayed by using the buttons '↑↓'.
Confirm the displayed submenu point by using the '↵'-button. Pay attention to the special functions of
this button in some menu points. Return to the next higher menu point by using the button 'esc'. Infor-
mation on the displayed event and on the operations now possible is provided by pressing the button
'Info'.
For individual displays of all events of detector zones, actuations, transmitting devices, alarming de-
vices, etc., two lines of the LC-display are for use. In case of an event,
the second line of the LC-display shows the zone-, transmitting device-, etc., text1 and
the third line of the LC-display shows the element text or (if there is no element text) the zone-,
transmitting device-, etc., text2.
The authorized installer enters the texts during the setting of the parameters.
