Inadequate Installation.
All Mircom Systems
must be installed in
accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide
adequate protection. National standards require an inspection and
approval to be conducted by the local authority having jurisdiction
following the initial installation of the system and following any changes
to the system. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out
properly.
5.
Inadequate Testing.
Most problems that would prevent an alarm a
Mircom System from operating as intended can be discovered by regular
testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested by the
local authority having jurisdiction immediately after a fire, storm,
earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside
the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads,
consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that
are part of the system.
NOTE TO USERS:
All Mircom Systems have been carefully designed to be as effective as possible.
However, there are circumstances where they may not provide protection. Some
reasons for system failure include the following. The end user can minimize the
occurrence of any of the following by proper training, testing and maintenance of
the Mircom Systems:
6.
Inadequate Testing and Maintenance.
It is
imperative that the systems
be periodically tested and subjected to preventative maintenance. Best
practices and local authority having jurisdiction determine the frequency
and type of testing that is required at a minimum. Mircom System may not
function properly, and the occurrence of other system failures identified
below may not be minimized, if the periodic testing and maintenance of
Mircom Systems is not completed with diligence and as required.
7.
Improper Operation.
It is important that all system users be trained in
the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to
respond when the system indicates an alarm. A Mircom System
may not
function as intended during an emergency situation where the user is
unable to operate a panic or emergency switch by reason of permanent or
temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time,
unfamiliarity with the correct operation, or related circumstances.
