Diagnostics
Fig. 26 shows the options in the Diagnostics menu.
Force Dev.O/P
Use the
Force Device Output
option to activate an
output point, causing a sounder to sound, for example.
Choose the type of point and specify the address. You then
see the type of screen shown in Fig. 27.
Press the number key (
1
to
4
) appropriate to your required
operation. For example press
1
key to force the point
ON
.
The available operations now change.You will see a
9 - Unforce
option if the device is forced, for example.
The
Force OFF
option prevents the device activating
when it normally would. For example a forced off sounder
would not sound when the panel went into alarm.
If you displayed the status screen for the point, it would
show the forced status of the point (such as “Forced ON”).
You can navigate away from the Force Device Output
screen, and on navigating back it will still be in the same
state. You could navigate to another point and also force
this.
Resetting the control panel also unforces any forced points.
Force Dev.I/P
Use the
Force Device Input
option to simulate the
activation of an input device, such as a detector.
Choose the type of point and specify the address. You then
see the type of screen shown in Fig. 28.
Press the
1
key to force the point.
The control panel will now respond as if the device at the
point had activated. For example forcing a detector will
probably put the control panel into an alarm state.
