7.2 ROUTINE TESTING
7.2.1 Daily Check - Fault Indicators
If the OmniCare EVC System Control Panel is located in a
position where the audible fault warning could be unnoticed for
more than 24 hours, a special check should be performed each
day to confirm that either the “System OK” LED is illuminated,
or any faults that are indicated are receiving necessary attention.
7.2.2 Weekly Functional Test
Each week, a functional test of a Remote Unit should be
performed to ensure it can make and receive clear and intelligible
calls to the relevant Control Panel(s).
A different Remote Unit should be used each week, so that all
units will get tested in rotation.
7.2.3 Six Monthly Inspection by a “Competent
Person”
The Standard recommends that every six months the System
should be thoroughly inspected to ensure continued reliability.
The “Competent Person” must have suitable knowledge and
equipment to be able to check the system.
Baldwin Boxall can perform these Inspections under a Service
Agreement.
NOTE: This Check only needs to be performed if the Warning Buzzer may
go unheard for 24 hours.
This inspection does not need to be recorded.
NOTE: The result of this weekly test and the identity of the Remote Unit
used should be recorded.
NOTE: The result of this inspection and any outstanding defects will be
reported to the "Responsible Person". These should be recorded.
