Weekly tests should be conducted and should include the following:
a. Carry out a fire alarm call by simulating an alarm on detector zones as follows;
1. Isolate any system outputs you wish not to respond to the testing of the system such
as the exterior bell (using the EXT BELL ISOLATE button), the warning system
(using the EXT BELL ISOLATE button, and any other Auxiliary Control Functions
(ACF) including AC Shutdown and MDH controls using the ACF ISOLATE
FUNCTION.
2. Place the fire brigade transmitter selector switch in the isolate position.
3. Operate the "ALM TEST" key. First select a point or zone and the press the key to
activate the actuating devices and test the response of the system’s signals.
To check the alarm bell, or any other ancillary circuit operation press the EXT BELL
ISOLATE key again.
Note: The correct operation of the bell should be checked each week.
b. First select a point or zone and then press the “FLT TEST” key.
The system will automatically fault test the selected point or zone and will indicate a
system fault during testing.
c. Operate the "Battery Test" switch.
The FIP will load test all batteries for 1 hour and will then reset.
Note:
Battery Test operates automatically at 8.00am each Tuesday.
d. On completion of the tests ensure that all switches are in the correct operating position
and that the system has been returned to its normal status. Should a fault condition exist,
or if a circuit indicator did not illuminate when tested immediately contact your
Maintenance company to rectify the problem.
e. Record the results of the tests in the logbook and check that all tests were logged by the
system printer. If the printer logs any test as having failed, immediately contact your
Maintenance company to rectify the problem.
