7-2 Facility Performance Testing User Manual
For IS 3200 and BR 4200 Systems, Tags
designated for testing purposes should be
assigned on the system under the patient names
“Test Tag – Zone” and “Test Tag – Band
Alarm” and the numbers 255 and 254
respectively, so that it will be clear to anyone
viewing the alarm pop-up messages or alarm
reports that these events were related to system
testing.
Zone, Lock Test
When a Tag approaches a monitored door zone
equipped with Locks, the Lock should engage.
When the Tag leaves the monitored zone, the
Lock should disengage. This test will evaluate
this operation.
NOTE: In the event of a fire, all Locks are
disabled and the door can be opened
immediately.
Test results should be written down and kept in a
test log. Make your own, or use the included, to
ensure that every monitored zone is tested.
These test reports should become part of your
permanent quality assurance records.
1. Notify staff and security that you will be
testing zone performance and alarms
may be generated. They should pay
special attention to traffic during this
time.
2. While not in a monitored zone, use an
S-TAD to activate the test Tag.
3. Hold the test Tag in your hand and
approach each monitored door zone.
4. Each door should lock as you approach.
NOTE: You may be able to hear the lock
“click” as it changes states. Otherwise,
For 3000 Series Magnetic Locks, you
can push on the door to verify the Lock
is engaged. For 3101 Series Magnetic
Locks, the LED will turn from green to
red when the Lock is engaged.
However, do not open the door; this test
is intended only for verifying that a door
locks when a Tag approaches. If you
wish to verify the operation of Delayed
Egress Circuitry for 3101 Locks, see
page 7-3.
5. As you approach each zone, try varying
your approach angle (i.e., straight on,
from the sides, down low, etc.). Make
sure there is adequate coverage from all
angles leading to the monitored zone.
6. Record the results (pass or fail).
7. If the test fails to lock the door:
a. Notify staff and security of the
vulnerable area.
b. Check for visible damage or
tampering to the zone equipment.
c. Have a maintenance technician
verify power to the zone equipment.
d. Have a maintenance technician
verify the FPI is set properly.
e. Call your Accutech Representative.
8. To reset the Lock, deactivate the test
Tag or leave the monitored zone.
Depending upon your settings, the Lock
may disengage itself automatically.
Otherwise enter a Keypad Reset code.
