ADVANCED SET-UP AND CONTROL GUIDE
INTRODUCTION
The FAAST LT aspirating smoke detector is an advanced smoke
sensing system for use in early warning and very early warning
applications. The system continuously draws air from the controlled
environment through a series of sampling holes to monitor the
environment for smoke particulate. A range of sensing, operating
and output facilities can be congured in the FAAST LT unit by the
end user. This is accomplished by programming and downloading
control parameters from a PC running the proprietary software
application, PipeIQ™ (Version 2.3 and above). This manual
describes how to monitor and congure the various operating
parameters available in a FAAST LT unit via the user interface
provided by PipeIQ™.
