6.5 SYSTEM TEST
6.5.1 FUNCTION
For a network system to perform a local system test follow this section; to initiate a
system test at a remote panel refer to Section 11.8.1.
The System Test checks the integrity of the system hardware and software.
It applies simulated alarm and fault conditions to each circuit to check that the conditions
are detected and processed correctly. It also checks the Controller RAM and EPROM
and checks the database EEPROM checksum.
6.5.2 OPERATING SEQUENCE
From the base display, press:
A system test cannot be initiated with any of the following conditions present:
(a) Database EEPROM checksum error.
(b) Module configuration fault.
(c) Battery very low.
(d) Shift register bus fault.
(e) Any zone currently being reset or in zone test or Auto-Reset mode.
(f) Auto-test currently in progress.
If none of the above conditions are present, a system test will be initiated and the LCD
will show "System test in progress - press RESET to abort".
The test may be terminated prematurely at any point by pressing the "RESET" key.
If the test fails for any reason, a test fail cadence will sound on the buzzer and an error
message will appear on the display.
System test will perform memory tests concurrently with circuit fault and alarm tests.
Output logic execution continues to run during system test. If a circuit test fails, the
brigade fault relay and "SYSTEM FAULT" LED will turn on.
