Advanced MxPro 5 User Manual

The MxPro 5 User Manual is the day-to-day operating reference for an installed Advanced MxPro 5 fire alarm panel. It is written for end users, duty holders, security teams and facility managers — not for installers or commissioning engineers.

What the manual covers

• Panel front-panel layout for both standard LCD and TouchControl colour touchscreen variants
• Responding to a fire alarm condition: silence sounders, reset, building evacuation procedures
• Responding to a fault condition: identifying the source from the event log, raising a service call
• Zone and device isolations / disablements — the safe and unsafe times to isolate
• Walk test mode for routine weekly testing under BS 5839-1
• Reading the event log for incident review and reporting
• Access level structure and key switch security
• AlarmCalm verification mode and what it means at the front panel

Who should use this manual

This manual is for building duty holders, facility managers and trained end-users who operate an MxPro 5 panel as part of their day-to-day responsibilities. For installation, programming, and commissioning, see the MxPro 5 Commissioning Manual.

BS 5839 duty-holder responsibilities

The user manual covers the panel-side workflow for routine weekly testing, but not the underlying duty-holder responsibilities under BS 5839-1. For a full understanding of UK weekly testing, monthly inspection and annual servicing requirements, see the BS 5839 / BAFE SP203-1 compliance track.

Operator training

For end-users who want to deepen their understanding of how MxPro 5 panels work internally — useful when explaining service callouts to building occupants or making decisions about isolations during planned works — the BH Courses fire alarm training course includes operator-level modules covering panel architecture and decision-making.
