the circuit and initiate an active fire alarm. You should 
measure 20 to 25 volts between TB1-3 (+) and TB1-4 (-). 
Press the panel Reset switch, and wait for the system to 
reset. Verify receipt of the alarm at the municipal receiving 
station. 
Note:   If you activate the municipal box, it will indicate 
Trouble until rewound. 
4b.  Single Reverse Polarity Circuit (Old Style) configuration: 
Verify that 20 to 25 volts appears between TB1-5 (+) and 
TB1-6 (-), paying attention to polarity. Create a Trouble 
condition on the panel. Verify that 0 volts appears between 
TB1-5 (+) and TB1-6 (-). Verify that the module’s Trouble 
relay activates, the appropriate Trouble message appears in 
the Trouble message queue, and that the receiving station 
receives the Trouble indication. Open the circuit wired 
between TB1-5 and TB1-6. Verify that the receiving station 
receives the Trouble indication. 
  Initiate an active fire alarm. You should measure 20 to 25 
volts between TB1-5 (-) and TB1-6 (+), paying attention to 
the polarity change. Verify receipt of the alarm at the 
municipal receiving station. 
4c.  Three Reverse Polarity Circuit (New Style) configuration: 
Verify that 20 to 25 volts appears between TB1-5 (+) & 
TB1-6 (-), between TB1-7 (+) & TB1-8 (-), between TB1-9 
(+) & TB1-10 (-), paying attention to polarity. Create a 
Trouble condition on the panel. Verify that 20 to 25 volts 
appears between TB1-8 (+) and TB1-8 (-). Verify that the 
module’s Trouble relay activates, the appropriate Trouble 
message appears in the Trouble message queue, and that the 
receiving station receives the Trouble indication. Open the 
circuit wired between TB1-5 and TB1-6. Verify that the 
receiving station receives a circuit fault indication. Open the 
circuit wired between TB1-7 and TB1-8. Verify that the 
receiving station receives a circuit fault indication. Open the 
circuit wired between TB1-9 and TB1-10. Verify that the 
module’s Trouble relay activates and the appropriate Trouble 
message appears in the Trouble message queue, and that the 
receiving station receives a circuit fault indication. 
  Initiate an active fire alarm. You should measure 20 to 25 
volts between TB1-5 (-) and TB1-6 (+), paying attention to 
the polarity change. Verify receipt of the alarm at the 
municipal receiving station. 
  Initiate an active Supervisory condition. You should measure 
20 to 25 volts between TB1-9 (-) and TB1-10 (+), paying 
attention to the polarity change. Verify receipt of the 
Supervisory condition at the municipal receiving station.
