Control and Function Test
Before leaving the installation, the control and function test should be performed to ensure:
The proper wiring of the detector, preferably against a wiring diagram.
The proper mounting of the detector, the Test Transmitter SC113 or External Test
Transmitter SC115 (see “
External Test Transmitter SC115 User Guide
”).
Perform the following tests:
1.
Scratch with a screw driver on the protected surface (safes) and drill in the wall (vaults) at
the fringe of the expected coverage area, an alarm from the detector should be activated
within 45 seconds.
2.
Knock firmly with a hammer around the detector with two-second intervals between blows.
After four to seven blows, Detector SC100 in safe and vault mode shall alarm.
Note
To protect the surface from damage it is advised to use a small metal plate between
hammer and surface.
This test simulates the attack with hammer and chisel and is only valid for Detector
SC100.
3.
Give one powerful blow near the detector with a hammer. The detector should give an alarm
immediately. This test simulates an attack with explosives.
Note
Check up the background noise level in the detector to prevent nuisance alarm.
4.
Activate the Noise LED tool by setting the DIP switch 4 in ON position.
5.
Set the sensitivity to G
high
. Make sure that all possible sources of vibrations in the protected
area are present and operating.
6.
Check the noise LED that shall not lit if the noise level is acceptable. If the noise led is
flickering or is lighting steadily try to find the noise source and remove it.
Note
Always try to remove the source of ambient noise before reducing the detection range.
Switch off noise LED tool by setting DIP switch 4 in OFF position.
Set the sensitivity of the detector to an appropriate value. Close the detector cover and
check for closed-loop condition of the tamper-loop. Perform a functional test of both
alarm and tamper signals according to panel specifications.
Remote Test (Alternative)
To reach the highest security level of Detector SC100, system provides three different remote test
possibilities. For high security installations a daily remote test of the Detector SC100 function and
mounting is advised.
Remote test of detector electronics, excluding the vibration sensing element.
Remote test of the detector functionality including the detector vibration sensor element and
the acoustical fixing to the protected object. This test alternative incorporates the Test
transmitter SC113 to be mounted on the protected object but covered by Detector SC100.
Remote range test of several Detector SC100s simultaneously. This test alternative
includes remote test of the detector functionality including the detector vibration sensor
element and the acoustical fixing to the protected object as well as testing of the signal
propagation in the solid structure of the protected object between Detector SC100 and the
External Test Transmitter SC115.
J1 (see
Figure 7-1 Function modules on Detector Base

) on the detector base is used
for remote test, and detail functions are shown in the table below.
