Maintenance features
A range of maintenance features simplifies and improves system maintenance. These include
status reports, contamination and near-service reports, operational statistics, and a "zone walk-
test" and "sounder-test". The system can manually disable zones or individual points for
maintenance purposes.
Remote diagnostics
Remote diagnostics is available as an option, enabling some or all (depending on software
version) maintenance functions to be carried out from a remote location.
Automatic diagnostics
Automatic diagnostics continuously monitor the system for correct operation, features include:
• Automatic checking of wiring and points
• Corrupt data detection
• Disconnection of faulty or corrupt zones
• Automatic testing of sensor operation

Sensors are automatically subjected to a self-test at regular intervals, and vital elements of the
system, such as the software configuration data and running data are verified every hour.
