SPEAKER LINE CHECKER

Tests

Tests

- AUTOMATIC TESTS

This is the type of test described in the Initial Operation and Routine Operation portions of this manual.
An internal timer has been set to conducts tests automatically at intervals ranging from 1 minute to 24 hours. 

- MANUAL TESTS

Tests may be conducted manually, thus temporarily overriding the timer (automatic) setting. This allows a test to
be conducted at will without waiting for the next test interval or having to change the timer setting. To manually
conduct a test, depress the Op Mode button several times as needed until the “Single Check” or “All Check”
menu appears in the display, then depress ENTER. Automatic operation will resume after the manual test has
been completed.

- FAILURE CRITERIA

- REMOTE CAPABILITIES

Remote interrupt (EXT. IN)

The SC-9216R includes a provision for contact closure at a remote location to pause operation. Normal
operation resumes when the contact closure is released. 

Remote fault indicator (FAULT OUT 1,2)

The SC-9216R includes a provision for a fault indicator at a remote location. Remote fault indicators are not
provided by Inter-M and must be custom designed and fabricated for the particular requirements of each
particular application. A block diagram of basic system elements is provided to assist in the design of a remote
fault indicator though this assistance will not be sufficient for every need.

Remote check indicator (CHECK OUT)

The SC-9216R includes a provision for a remote check indicator at a remote location. Remote check indicators
