While synchronization is being established with the emitter and while the reception signal level is automatically
adjusted, the monitor lamp (green) and fault lamp (yellow) on the receiver blink at intervals of three seconds. If the
system shifts successfully to the monitoring state, the monitor lamp (green) alone will blink. It takes about two minutes
for fire monitoring to begin after the receiver cover is closed. In the meantime, take care not to block the beam. Once
this has completed the cover should be locked in place with the supplied locking screw (please refer to Fig.5).
After the SPC-E has completed its initialisation it should be tested using the filters supplied. The range 1 filter relates to
25%, the range 2 filter relates to 50% and the range 3 filter relates to 60%. Firstly place the no alarm side of the filter in
front of the SPC-E for at least one minute this should cause no fire or fault signals, if a fault occurs the amber LED will
flash once every 3 seconds. Next place the alarm side of the filter in front of the SPC-E for at least one minute. During
this time a fire alarm should occur and the red LED should illuminate continuously, if no alarm occurs, then the SPC-E is
not operating as expected.
