3-2.5.2.5.7 How to Run a Battery Test
Purpose: To measure the standby battery's open-circuit voltage and
the power-supply unit’s output voltage.
3-2.5.2.5.8 How to Run an Alarm-Simulation Test
Purpose: To activate system outputs by simulating an initiating-device
event during system testing. The initiating device is not activated. The
ARIES system outputs are activated as if the simulated initiating device
had actually reported an alarm condition.
The simulated alarm report causes execution of the control unit's
application program and activates any outputs in the general-alarm
list. Event acknowledgment, alarms silencing, and a system reset are
required to return the system to normal operating condition.
Note: The simulated alarm report must be manually de-activated via
a menu operation before the system can be reset and returned
to normal operating condition.
The alarm-simulation test can be run concurrently for multiple devices to
test counting and crossed-zoned applications. Subsequent alarm
acknowledgment and silencing are required. Each simulated initiating
device must be manually de-activated via the menu before the control unit
can be reset.
Step Action Result
1 Press 0 Key Initiate menu access
2 Enter Password; Press “Enter” Key Gain access to menus
3 Press 4 Key Enter Test-Menu branch
4 Press 3 Key Run battery test.
The following voltages are measured:
(1) battery open-circuit
(2) power-supply output
5 Press "Backspace" Key (as required) Exit Menu System
CAUTION
Isolate all releasing outputs using the Isolate function and physically disconnect the
wiring to all agent-release, pre-action-sprinkler and auxiliary control circuits before
running any alarm-simulation test(s). Restore the system to normal operating
condition at the conclusion of these tests and any other functional tests that were
performed.
