Zone Self-Test
This feature provides an automated self-test for a selected group of localized
intrusion sensors (for example, glass break detectors, sound discriminators
and shock sensors) which respond to an artificial source of noise and/or
vibration.
Automated self-testing is especially useful when sensors are placed in high
security areas where failure cannot be tolerated.
Up to 16 zones can be designated for self-testing.
A sound or vibration generator should be used that can be placed close
enough to the sensors to trigger them when the noise source is activated.
A Utility Output acts as the source of switched power for the noise/vibration
generator (refer to Sensors Test, page 95). This is set to conform to the testing
schedule. The schedule defines the time and day for the first test and sets the
times for repeated tests over a 24-hour period.
A message is sent to the MS if all the related sensors are triggered during the
test (if a Report Code has been defined). Refer to Report Codes: MainTrouble,
page 142, for definitions.) With successful completion of the self-test, an entry
is also placed in the system's Event Log.
If, during the test period, one or more of the sensors fails to trip, a self-test
failure message is generated (refer to page 142) and sent to the MS. A record
of the failure is also entered in the Event Log.
Refer to the procedures on the following pages for details about setting up the
Zone Self-Test.
