1)  Apply  power  using  the  proper  switch.  This  switch  should  be  fitted  with  protection  fuses.

2)  You  will  notice  that  some  LEDs  will  light  up  in  turn  for  about  20  seconds,  so  as  to  test  the  LEDs.

3)  The  COUNTDOWN  begins  that  lasts  about  90  seconds  (warm  up)  afer  this  the  unit  is  ready  to  detect.

4)  By  pressing  the  TEST  button,  you  get  the  simulation  of  a  gas  leak  and  the  unit  carries  out  the  following:

a)  The  Pre-alarm  LED  lights  up  calibrated  to  13%  LEL  or  200  ppm  (referred  to  CO)  switching  the  relay  the
buzzer  will  issue  a  low  frequency  sound

b)  The  Main  alarm  LED  lights  up  calibrated  to  20%  LEL  or  300  ppm  (referred  to  CO)  switching  the  relay.
The  Main  alarm  LED  starts  flashing;  the  buzzer  will  issue  a  hight  frequency  sound

5)    To  complete  the  general  test,  issue  gas  from  a  pre-calibrated  aerosol

6) If  you  want  to  simulate  a  zone  fault,  you  only  need  to  disconnect  the  return  cable  of  the  corresponding
se nsor.
-lights  up  the  flashing  LED  and  FAULT  led  of  the  MAIN  ALARM  led;
-the  buzzer  emits  a  continuous  sound;
-the  fault  relay  and  the  main  alarm  relay  will  switch.
Reconnect  the  return  cable  and  press  the  RESET  button  to  restore  the  functioning  of  the  control  unit.

If  other  problems  arise,  a  specialised  and/or  authorised  technician  and/or  the  Distributor  of  BEINAT  S.r.l.  should  be
contacted  di rectly.

If  the  device  does  not  start  up.
Check that the 230V mains power is correctly connected. If powered by the battery, check that the 12Vdc power
is  correctly  connected.
If  the  Fault  LED  lights  up.
Check  that  the  connecting  cables  from  the  BX280/ax  to  the  probes  are  intact,  that  the  probes  are  properly
powered,  and  that  the  signal  cable  is  correctly  connected.

If  the  Over  Load  Probe  LED  lights  up.
Check:  that  the  power  polarity  has  not  been  inverted,  that  no  short-circuit  is  present,
that  the  probes  were  not  damaged  during  installation,  that  no  excessive  current  absorption  is  present.
If  the  Over  Load  Battery  LED  lights  up.
Check  that  the  connection  cables  are  not  short-circuited,  that  the  polarity  has  not  been  inverted,  or  that  the
battery  is  not  damaged
If  the  Control  Unit  is  repeatedly  issuing  an  alarm.
Check  that  there  are  no  gas  leaks.  If  the  alarm  signal  and  the  FAULT  indicator  light  turn  on  together,  check
the  probes.
If  the  Control  Unit  is  issuing  an  alarm  and  does  not  shut  off  the  devices  connected  to  it.
Check  that  the  wiring  is  correct  and  that  the  jumper  that  carries  power  to  the  relay  has  been  set  properly.  All
relays  must  be  free  from  electrical  power
.  Check  the  drawing  of  the  connections.
If  a  12VDC  solenoid  valve,  which  does  not  work  well,  is  connected  to  the  BX280-AX.
Direct  connection  of  12VDC  solenoid  valves  or  sirens  to  the  BX280-AX  is  not  permitted.
An  external  power  unit  must  always  be  used.
The  BX280-AX  gives  a  max  current  of  50mA.
