NOTE:
New SAM’s (Self Addressable Modules) need a different installation process because they need to
be assigned addresses before the panel can learn that they are present. This procedure is covered
later in this manual in the section entitled “6-4 Automatic Address Setting (SAM)”. .

INSTALLATION & COMMISSIONING MANUAL - REVISION 1.0 - 19.FEB.2007
COMMISSIONING
Learning Which Devices Are Fitted
Enter programming mode. (See page 6 Access Levels, Installer Access Code)
If site specific data has NOT been pre-programmed then select function 8-3-1 Clear Customer Flash
Memory and clear the customer flash. (You must NOT do this if you have been supplied with a SIM CARD
pre-programmed with your site data.)
Select function 8-3-2 Clear Non-Volatile RAM and clear the NVRAM.
Exit Programming mode.
Press SYSTEM RESET.
Wait 90 seconds for the system to automatically learn which devices are present and report any faults.
(A SYSTEM RESET or Master Reset in Installation Mode results in an analogue loop power off period of 8
seconds [reset], an analogue loop charge up of 15 seconds then commencement of loop polling.
Review the faults (using the FAULT (QUEUE REVIEW) key if there is more than one). Note down the
messages then remove power and rectify the faults.
Power up the system, let it initialize and enter programming mode.
Select function 7-1 Device Count, Type and Value
Use pq to select the device confirm that all devices are present. If a Junior Expansion Loop Card has
been added to the panel, use the u to select Loop 2 and verify the presence and proper operation of all
devices fitted to this loop.
Once all faults have been cleared and the system has been in Installation Mode for 90 seconds then the
system can be put into Active Mode.
Note that there is no clear end to Installation mode because the system is constantly looking and learning.
However if the system is put into Active Mode and Installation Mode hasn’t had time to identify all system
components you will very quickly be greeted with error reports regarding unexpected devices.
If devices are ever removed, replaced or added then Installation Mode must be selected so that the system
can learn the new configuration. If you do not do this the system will report a fault.
Sounder Audibility Check
If the building is unoccupied then press SOUND ALARMS. All sounders should operate until the button
is pressed again. Confirm that this is the case.
Note that Apollo loop sounders may take a second or two to respond.
If the building is occupied it is strongly recommended that the test sounders functions in programming
mode are used. Enter programming mode and select 7-2 Test Sounders. Using this function, all the
sounders can be checked.
The Panel Conventional and Loop Sounders will sound for 1 second then be silenced for 9 seconds.
