Manual DACT test
Started
This screen displays briefly after initiating the manual DACT test.
If the DACT is enabled, the manual DACT test will force the DACT to report a manual test code to all
accounts that have the test report filter active. (See programming section for details). Repeated initiation
of the manual DACT test will alternate phone lines so that performing the manual DACT twice will insure
that both phone lines are tested also.
4.12 Operating the Remote Annunciator
When a remote annunciator is installed, the end users can view system status and perform silence and
reset functions remotely from the HCA panel. The remote annunciator keypad is enabled by inserting and
rotating the mechanical key to the active position. Once the key is in the active position users can silence
and reset the HCA panel from the remote annunciator. Note that the remote annunciator must be
enabled in order for the silence and reset functions to work. See section 5.5 for instructions on adding a
remote annunciator through programming.
