3-3.4 TEST MENU FUNCTIONS
Test Menu functions enable service personnel to test the SmartOne initiating devices for the ability
to transmit alarm signals. You can also perform alarm-simulation tests for the system’s application
program and can command on control modules connected to the SLC. In addition,
Test Menu
commands are used to initiate a walk test.
Figure 3-37 through Figure 3-41 outline the Test Menu functions. Each function is explained in detail
in the remainder of Section 3-3.4.

FOOTNOTES (Figure 3-37):
1 SLC Devices. Test SLC Initiating Devices. Purpose : To manually test the capability of one or
more SmartOne initiating devices (i.e., detectors and monitor modules) to generate and transmit
alarm signals that can be properly interpreted and processed by the ARIES NET
Link control unit.
Note: The ARIES NET Link control unit automatically runs this test once a day for all the configured
initiating devices on the SLC. The most current test results for all initiating devices are stored
in the SLC Test Results log.
9 Lamp Test. Run a Lamp Test. Purpose: To test the LEDs on the keypad/display.
12 Battery Test. Run a Battery Test. Purpose : To measure the standby battery's open-circuit
voltage and the power-supply unit’s output voltage.
CAUTION
Physically disconnect the wiring to all agent-release and pre-action-sprinkler circuits and
activate the global-isolate-outputs routine before testing any SLC initiating devices.
Restore the system to normal operating condition at the conclusion of these tests and any
other functional tests that were performed.
