TAMPER RESISTANCE
Intelligent programmable temperature sensors include a tamper-resistant ca-
pability that prevents their removal from the base without the use of a tool.
Refer to the base manual for details on making use of this capability.
BEFORE TESTING
Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing
maintenance, and will temporarily be out of service. Disable the system to
prevent unwanted alarms.
All sensors must be tested after installation and periodically thereafter. Test-
ing methods must satisfy the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors
offer maximum performance when tested and maintained in compliance with
NFPA 72.
The sensor can be self-tested or manually tested as described below.
SELF-TEST TESTING
A. Heat Test
The Notifier system with Self-Test temperature sensors can carry out a func-
tional test using the Self-Test function. It places enough energy into the therm-
istor to allow it to register heat and then measures the time it takes to cool
down after this heating cycle has been completed.
1. Use the associated app and gateway. (See Connected Life Safety Services
guides.
2. Initiate self-test from app. Wait at least 30 seconds before communicating
with the device; wait at least 90 seconds before moving or re-cycling.
3. Take appropriate action based on the outcome of the testing results. If
it has failed there may be an issue with the thermistor and the device
should be considered for cleaning or replacement.
NOTE: For safer testing the fire system can remain active while Self-Test is in
progress. The process will delay any alarm input signal from the SLC includ-
ing pull stations, input modules and other sensors (not undergoing Self-Test)
by a maximum of 30 seconds. Multiple loops and panels may be tested simul-
taneously.
B. Visual Inspection
This sensor contains a wireless beacon (only active during Self-Test process)
which is designed to communicate with the Honeywell Connected Life Safety
Services app in order to prove the successful completion of the visual inspec-
tion of any Self-Test sensor.
1. A range of Self-Test sensors can be placed into a beaconing mode from
the supporting app.
2. The App will display all selected Self-Test devices in range of your smart
phone and will place the device with the strongest signal at the top your
App display. The App will also provide details on the device address,
location and label. (For further details on the associated app and gateway
see Connected Life Safety Services guides).
3. Once the sensor is in beaconing range of your smart phone, you must
verify the completion of the visual inspection of the sensor via the App
(recording any remedial action required if necessary). Criteria for suc-
cessfully passing the visual inspections is available to review in the rel-
evant section of NFPA 72 guidance.
4. If the label of the self-test sensor is incorrect, you can update this on the
App (subject to holding the relevant user licence), which will upload it
to the system when you pair the device with the Connected Life Safety
Services gateway on completion of the visual inspection.
SELF-TEST TOKENS
If your license requires Self-Test tokens in order to activate the Self-Test pro-
cess, please refer to your Connected Life Safety Services guides in order to
purchase the required volume of tokens to complete testing on your project.
MANUAL TESTING
A. Test Magnet (Model No. M02-04 - optional)
1. Place the optional test magnet against the cover in the magnet test area,
as shown in Figure 3, to activate the test feature.
2. The LEDs should latch on within 10 seconds, indicating alarm and an-
nunciating the panel.
3. Reset the detector at the system control panel.
B. Direct Heat Method (Hair dryer of 1000 – 1500 watts)
1. From the side of the detector, direct the heat toward the sensor. Hold the
heat source about 6 inches (15 cm) away to prevent damage to the cover
during testing.
2. The LEDs on the detector should light when the temperature at the de-
tector reaches the alarm setpoint. If the LEDs fail to light, check the
power to the detector and the wiring in the detector base.
3. Reset the detector at the system control panel.
Detectors that fail these tests may need to be cleaned as described under
CLEANING and retested.
CLEANING
Before removing the detector, notify the proper authorities that the smoke
detector system is undergoing maintenance and will be temporarily out of
service.
Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted
alarms.
1. Remove the sensor to be cleaned from the system.
2. Use a vacuum cleaner or compressed air to remove dust and debris from
the sensing area.
3. Reinstall the detector.
4. Test the detector as described in TESTING.
5. Reconnect disabled circuits.
6. Notify the proper authorities that the system is back on line.

DEVICE AND SYSTEM SECURITY
Before installing this product ensure that the
tamper seal on the packaging is present and
unbroken and the product has not been tampered
with since leaving the factory. Do not install this
product if there are any indications of tampering.
If there are any signs of tampering the product
should be returned to the point of purchase.
It is the responsibility of the system owner to
ensure that all system components, i.e. devices,
panels, wiring etc., are adequately protected to
avoid tampering of the system that could result
in information disclosure, spoofing, and integrity
violation.
