HOW TO TEST THE SYSTEM (REFER TO NFPA 72)
Note: The system should be tested periodically. Check with local codes.
l
Notify appropriate personnel. (If the system is connected to the city, notify the fire department or monitoring
facility.)
l
Unlock and open panel door.
l
Unsnap and remove panel overlay (Fig. 28).
l
Set DIP switch SW1 -1 to the OFF position (Fig. 28) and press the RESET switch (Fig. 28) until the LEDs illuminate.
- SYSTEM TROUBLE LED remains illuminated.
CAUTION: If using alarm relay module, disconnect the module’s “AUX-” wire at control panel terminal TB2-3.
l
Activate an alarm-initiating device (pull station or smoke detector). Repeat this step until all alarm-initiating devices
have been activated or in accordance with local codes.
- Notification appliances operate with code representing the zone in alarm. (After four seconds, system
automatically resets to allow test of another device.)
Note: Auxiliary relays and city connection do not operate during test.
l
Momentarily open, then reconnect any device wiring (initiating devices and notification appliances) to test for
. proper operation of the supervisory circuitry.
l
Notification appliances operate continuously for four seconds if system has detected the wiring fault.
Note: Do not open wiring on the first notification appliance. Disconnecting the first appliance opens the entire
notification circuit and prevents the other appliances from operating.
l
When test is complete, set DIP switch SWl-1 to the ON position and press the RESET switch until LEDs
illuminate.
CAUTION: Reconnect alarm relay module “AUX-” wire at control panel terminal TB2-3.
l
Replace panel overlay.
l
Press the RESET switch after completing the test.
l
Notify appropriate personnel that test is complete.
Important: Should the panel fail to respond as described during these test procedures, refer to page 26, “What to
Do in Case of Trouble.”
