ADVANCED SET-UP AND CONTROL GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

The FAAST LT aspirating smoke detector is an advanced smoke 

sensing system for use in early warning and very early warning 

applications . The system continuously draws air from the controlled 

environment through a series of sampling holes to monitor the 

environment for smoke particulate . A range of sensing, operating 

and output facilities can be configured in the FAAST LT unit by the 

end user . This is accomplished by programming and downloading 

control parameters from a PC running the proprietary software 

application, 

PipeIQ™ 

(Version  2.3  and  above).  This  manual 

describes  how  to  monitor  and  configure  the  various  operating 

parameters available in a FAAST LT unit via the user interface 

provided by PipeIQ™ .
