Output Test Commands
This logical subgroup lets you issue or activate specific commands to test the
activation of the alarm output relay contacts
. For example, following commands
might be available in
Smartpack S
Controller’s submenu:

The Output Test functionality enables to test and verify the circuits connecting
external equipment to the power system’s alarm relay outputs.
The Output Test command will toggle the alarm relay contacts -- regardless of the
position they are at the moment -- for a certain period of time (entered in the “Out-
put Test Timeout (sec)” in
PowerSuite
).
Issuing commands is allowed using a Pin-Code.
Notice:
The default Service Access Level password or Pin-Code is <0003>. We strongly recommend
changing the passwords as soon as the power system is installed.
Alarm Outputs Isolation (Output Blocked)
When the user activates the “OutpBlocked” command, system alarms will NOT trig-
ger any alarm output group (similar to relay isolation), except for the “OutpBlocked,
AOG” group, which is always Alarm Output Group 18.
If an external warning is necessary, you can assign output relays to the “Outp-
Blocked, AOG” group, e.g. to activate a lamp or alarm bell when the alarm output
relays are blocked.
The “OutpBlocked” command will reset all alarm output groups to normal status,
and possible new alarms will NOT trigger any alarm output groups (output relays
activation is blocked), except for AOG 18. Also, this command will always activate
Alarm Output Group 18 to facilitate external warning of this function being active.
