Testing system functions
WARNING: Testing the system disables the alarm contact. The
system will not notify the fire department in the event of a fire
alarm condition during a test. See the system administrator for
detailed information.
This section explains the functions of the Test switch. The Test
switch temporarily disables normal system responses during the
testing of panels, detectors, and modules. The 2-LCD and the
printer report all responses from activated devices and devices
with trouble conditions.
The system programmer sets the test function for silent or
audible operation in the system definition utility (2-SDU). In
silent operation, the device under test will not activate
Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs). In audible operation,
the device under test activates programmed NACs for
approximately 2 seconds. The system programmer may also
program test only functions.
Starting the test function
