ID1000 Series Operating Manual
Type in the number of the zone you want to operate the test in (NOTE only one zone at a time can be
in TEST mode), then press ENTER. The display then shows:
TEST ZONE (n): Confirm (Y/N)?
Press YES and the first stage of the system test is carried out. This consists of a remote automatic
fire simulation control, applied to each of the sensors in that zone, with the panel verifying that each
detector responds correctly. During this stage (which last a few seconds), only failures registered
during this test are reported.
Subsequently the text display shows
ZONE n IN TEST
where ‘n’ is the zone number. The panel ZONE
IN TEST lamp is also switched on (steady). In this condition, you may apply Fire conditions to any sensor
in that Zone (either by applying smoke or heat as appropriate, or by operating the sensor’s internal test
switch by means of a magnet). You may identify the sensors in the Zone under test because their Light-
emitting-diodes (LEDs) will be illuminated periodically for 1 second pulses (this is in addition to the rapid
flashing due to normal data scanning). Manual Call Points are tested by use of the test key.
Each test operation is logged in the Event History, recorded on the printer (if fitted) and displayed. In the
case of analogue sensors correct operation may be verified by observing that the sensor’s LED changes
to steady ON status, returning to pulsing mode about 5 seconds after the test condition is removed.
In the case of a Manual Call Point test the appropriate sounder outputs are activated (according to
the specified test requirements), either for approximately one second, or for as long as the call point
test key is left in (depending on configuration). Only the internal sounder circuits and outputs designated
as type BELL are involved.
A test may be applied to any point any number of times; test alarms are auto-resetting. Wait at least
5 seconds before re-testing a device.
To cancel testing press pushbutton ‘0’ once more, and again select ‘0’ in answer to the question as
described in Section 3.9 (if given). The display shows:
CANCEL TEST MODE (Y/N)?
Press YES and the system returns to normal operation. This action must be carried out before another
zone can be put into Test mode.
Test mode is also cancelled if a FIRE is detected in another Zone, or if the walk round test is not
completed within the time limit specified for the installation (normally 2 hours).
3.9.2
Control Output Test
This is a facility to select an individual Control Output and activate it without putting the whole system
into alarm or walk test mode. This function is only available if it has been enabled in the configuration
of the panel. If it is, press key ‘0’ as detailed in Section 3.9 above, followed by ‘1’ to select the option
Output Test. The panel now displays:
Control Output Test:
0=CMX/1=Sounder 1 /2=Sounder 2:
3.9.2.1 Control Output Test: CMX Modules
If you select 0 in response to the prompt described in 3.9.2, you are then asked further questions in
order to specify which remote Control Module (CMX) you require. The first is:
Choose from ZONE no. (0=ALL)?
