8.2.2 Zone Fire Indications
1. On each zone in turn, start with the device
nearest the panel and operate each manual call
point and detection device on the zone.
2. After operation of each device confirm:
a. The fire indication is provided on the panel
on the correct zone.
b. The fire alarm devices operate correctly in
line with the panel configuration.
c. The Fire Signal output and Fire Relay
operate.
3. Press the Silence Alarms and the Reset buttons
after each device test and check the alarm
clears (Manual Call Points must be manually
reset before resetting the panel).
Detector removal operation:
1. Starting at the panel, remove the 1st detector
along the zone cable on zone 1 and check that:
The yellow zone fault LED illuminates.
The Sounder Fault LED and General Fault
LED operate
The internal buzzer sounds.
The fault relay operates.
2. If the zone has diodes fitted to detector bases,
operate a manual call point further along the
cable and check that the panel registers an
alarm condition. Reset the MCP and then the
panel.
3. Refit the detector and check that the control
panel returns to the normal state.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 4 for each detector on the
zone.
5. If the panel is a twin-wire panel then press the
EVACUATE button and check that all
sounders on the zone operate. Press the
SILENCE ALARMS button to stop the
sounders.
Any faults that are found must be traced and
rectified before proceeding.
Repeat steps 1 to 5, one zone at a time, until all the
zones are commissioned.
8.3 Remote Control Input
1. Remove the 10K resistor from the Remote
Control Input circuit terminals and connect the
field wiring to the terminals. The panel will
indicate a Remote Control Fault.
2. Place the 10K resistor across the ends of the
field wiring. Check that the fault indication
clears.
3. Place a short circuit across the 10K EOL
resistor and check that the panel indicates a
Remote Control Fault. Remove the S/C from
the EOL and check that the fault indication
clears.
4. Activate the Class Change switch or timer and
check that all sounders operate for 5 seconds
and then are silent. Deactivate the Class
Change switch or timer.
5. Activate the Alert switch. Check that all
sounders pulse and the ALERT/EVAC ON
LED on the panel illuminates. Deactivate the
Alert switch. Check that the sounders are silent
and the panel indication clears.
6. Activate the Evacuate switch. Check that all
sounders operate and the ALERT/EVAC ON
LED on the panel illuminates. Deactivate the
Evacuate switch. Check that the sounders are
silent and the panel indication clears.
7. Press the EVACUATE button on the panel and
check that all sounders operate. Activate the
Remote Silence Alarms switch and check that
all sounders silence. Deactivate the Remote
Silence Alarms switch.
8. Activate a detector on any zone and check that
the panel indicates the alarm. Activate the
Remote Reset switch and check that the panel
clears the alarm indication. Deactivate the
Remote Reset Switch.
Any faults should be traced and rectified before
proceeding.
8.4 Fire Signal Output
1. Remove the 10K resistor from the Fire Signal
Output circuit terminals and connect the field
wiring to the terminals, observing correct
polarity. Check that any fault indications clear
after a few seconds (the relay at routing
equipment should have been connected as
shown in Figure 1).
2. To operate the output, initiate a fire condition
on a zone. Check that the panel illuminates the
Fire Signal On LED and that the fire signal is
received at the receiving station. Silence and
reset the fire alarm panel to clear the output.
3. Place a short circuit across the cables at the
routing equipment and check that the panel
indicates a Fire Signal Fault.
4. Remove the S/C and check that the fault
indication clears.
