Simplex 4100 Operation

3-6
The Global Silent Appliance Test is a system-wide option to minimize noise and
disruption in a building during test. When this test is active, every TrueAlert
Controller is active. TrueAlert appliances activate their appliance LEDs instead
of activating the appliances.
Use the following procedure to place the system in the Global Silent Appliance
Test Mode to run the TrueAlert Silent Test.
1. Log on the 4100/4020 at the appropriate Access Level.
2. At the Operator Interface Panel, enter the address of a TrueAlert appliance
assigned to a particular TrueAlert Addressable Controller.
3. Enable Silent Test Mode from the TrueAlert Appliance Function Screen.
Verify a trouble is reported by Pseudo P229.
4. Wait a minimum of one to two minutes before testing appliances to ensure
that the diagnostics are active.
5. Initiate an alarm on the 4100/4020 and verify that the LED on each A/V
appliance turns on steady without audibles or strobes.
6. Under the TrueAlert appliance’s FUNCTION screen, take the TrueAlert
Addressable Controller out of Silent Test Mode and verify that the
troubles clear. (The trouble will clear automatically in eight hours.)
Note: LED operation is dependent on the priority of associated VNACs,
default programming and/or Custom Control programming.
