10.4.11 Check Detector Sensitivity Through Point Status
The control panel constantly monitors smoke detectors to ensure that sensitivity levels are in compliance with NFPA 72.
If sensitivity for a detector is not in compliance, the panel goes into trouble, generating a CAL TRBLE condition. A detector enters a CAL
MAINT state to indicate that it is approaching an out of compliance condition (but is currently still in compliance).
When a CAL TRBLE condition occurs, the central station receives a detector trouble report (“373” and the zone or point for Contact ID for-
mat; “FT” and the zone or point in SIA format).
To check sensitivity for an individual detector, follow the steps below:
1.
From the Main Menu, press 2 for Point Functions.
2.
Press 2 for Point Status.
3.
Select the module where the point you want to check is located.
4.
Enter the number of the point you want to check and press ENTER.
NOTE 1:
Alarm and trouble signals that have been silenced but the detector remains un-restored will un-silence every 4 or 24 hours depending
on user selection until it is restored.
NOTE 2:
Multi-Site displays do not allow for silencing multiple sites. Pressing SILENCE will only locally silence the PZT built into the
annunciator.
NOTE:
Multi-Site displays do not allow for resetting multiple sites.
