D.4.2 To Test Detectors Set Below 0.50% Obscuration per Foot
Using alarm sensitivities below 0.50% obscuration per foot requires a 90-day test to ensure that the
detector environment is suitable for the higher sensitivity setting. To meet Notifier and
Underwriters Laboratory requirements, test each detector planned to operate below 0.50%/ft
obscuration as follows:
1. Set the detector as follows:
2. Operate detectors continuously for 90 days with all environmental factors (such as,
temperature, humidity, air flow, occupancy, and so on) similar to the intended application for
the detectors. Record all events for each tested detector with an electronic History buffer or a
printout.
3. At the end of the 90-day test: An authorized Notifier representative, or an end user trained by
an authorized Notifier representative must inspect the results of the test. If the test results show
no alarms or pre-alarms for the tested detectors, reprogram the fire alarm system to set the
Alarm sensitivity to the more sensitive Pre-Alarm level of the test.

D.5.1 Detector Maintenance Display
Should the panel detect a low chamber value or maintenance condition with a detector, it will
generate a point trouble as described in the operations manual for this panel. The following Read
Status screen displays detector information that applies to the state of the smoke detector. It can be
reached with the following commands, starting at the Main Menu screen:
