IFS-2600 Fire Indicator Panel Section 3 Operation

3.4. Zone Operator Function
Zone functions are those relating specifically to the detection zones. Following is an explanation of their
operation and the keystrokes required to perform the function required.
ALARM TEST
ALARM TEST # ENT
The alarm test function momentarily disconnects the detector lines of the zone(s) under test and
simulates a detector going into alarm, therefore testing the zone(s) alarm detection capability.
A resistive load equal to worst case alarm condition is placed on the zone for a period of 120 seconds
and then removed. If the zone being tested is not a latching type, the alarm will reset automatically once
the load is removed. Acknowledging and resetting the alarm will terminate an alarm test.
Once the zone has alarmed, all outputs are initiated (as programmed) similar to a real alarm. The zone
may be isolated prior to an alarm test if desired; this will prevent any outputs from operating.
‘#’ in the above key sequence is the zone number, which can be selected using Numeric keys on the
keypad.
If only one zone is to be tested, use the appropriate number. Alternatively the "ALL" button can be used to
simultaneously test all zones.
To perform an alarm test:
1. Press the "ALARM TEST" button once; the buzzer will give 2 short beeps to indicate that alarm
test mode has been entered
2. The LCD display will read "ALARM TEST MODE, ENTER ZONE No"
3. Now enter the zone number Individual zone ("#") 1 - 64 or select “ALL” key
4. Press "ENT"
If a correct entry is made, alarm testing on the zone commences immediately. However remember there
is a 2 second transient delay on all zones. It will therefore take approximately 2 seconds before the zone
registers an alarm (this could be longer, depending on zone type).
LED’s on the respective selected zone(s) will start blinking with a continuous buzzer sound and a red LED
light is illuminated next to BT INH location on PSI board.
Pressing ACK acknowledge key stops the buzzer sound and blinking LED automatically turns into
continuous lighting.
Pressing RESET key automatically brings panel to its normal condition.
A long beep will signify an incorrect entry and will revert back to normal operating mode. The "ALARM
TEST" button will need to be pressed again to re-enter alarm test mode.
NOTE:
This LED is for new IFS-2600 termination boards(NI-2025-01) only.
