Prior to powering up, the panel will have been installed in accordance with the
installation instructions, all cabling will have been fully installed and tested,
glanded into the panel enclosure but not connected to the panel terminals. The
mains supply should be isolated externally to the panel.
2.
Check the battery connections are correct.
3.
Remove the mains supply fuse from the panel mains terminal block. Once the
permit to energise the mains supply is in place, energise the mains and check the
voltage and polarity are correct before replacing the panel fuse.
4.
The panel will power up and if all the end of line devices are correctly terminated
in the panel and the battery is OK, the panel should be silent, displaying only the
Power Supply On indication.
5.
Turn the Access keyswitch to “1” and press the Test Display button. The panel
should respond by lighting all indications and sounding the buzzer. This will
