5.10 BRIGADE TEST
5.10.1 FUNCTION
The brigade test function produces an internal alarm condition which is signalled to the
brigade and the FFCIF Alarm LED turns on. Brigade Test may control ancillary relays if
programmed to do so and the ancillaries are not isolated.
5.10.2 OPERATING SEQUENCE
Press and hold the "BRIG TEST" key for at least 2 seconds:
- The MAF alarm relay will activate, if un-isolated (ie not
SYSTEM TESTING).
- Any un-isolated ancillary zones or outputs controlled by
Brigade Test will activate.
Release the BRIG TEST key. After a short period:
- The MAF alarm relay will de-activate.
- Any ancillary zones or outputs activated by the brigade test will
de-activate.
NOTE: The brigade alarm feature of the BRIG TEST key can be disabled via system
programming. If so disabled, pressing the BRIG TEST key will not result in
an alarm signal to the brigade, but controlled ancillaries will still operate
unless isolated.
The Brigade Test function at an F4000 may also be initiated from an RZDU, if
it has been programmed to do so.
