Testing detectors
Undertake a performance check following initialization.
Checking the detection distance
The detector is connected to the adjustment device.
1. Cover the reflector completely, using an appropriate object.
The standardized signal value on the adjustment device must be <5 %; the
distance display is frozen.
2. Enter the read-in standardized signal value on the two labels.

3. Stick a label on the hood, at the top or side. The other label is intended for
system documentation.
Activating the test alarm
1. On the control panel, switch off the remote transmission of alarms. To do this
set the 'Detector test' operating mode on the control panel.
2. Hold the alarm test filter TF04 in front of the hood, such that it covers the
detector optics.
The detector activates an alarm after around 10 seconds.
3. Pull the MC-Link cable from the detector and remove the adjustment device.
4. Re-insert the end plug in the hood.
5. On the control panel, switch the remote transmission of alarms back on.
The detector is ready for operation.
If the alarm doesn’t sound:
Check whether the standardized signal value is attenuated enough to reach the
alarm threshold. Otherwise rotate the alarm test filter a little or turn it round.
