To perform an initial installation test:
1. Visually inspect each detector and verify that it is installed in the
correct location. Make sure it is not adversely affected by factors
not apparent on the plans.
2. Remove the detector from its base and verify that the proper
detector address, trouble signals, and messages are reported.
3. If wired for Class A operation, verify that the detector continues to
operate first with SLC_IN disconnected, and then with SLC_OUT
disconnected. (Refer to the installation sheet for the base.)
4. Place a momentary ground fault on the SLC to verify operation of
ground fault detection circuitry.
5. Perform a function test, as described below.
To perform a function test:
1. If desired, use the fire alarm control panel to put the detector or
zone into a service group for testing. (Refer to the panel technical
reference manual for instructions.)
2. Activate the heat sensor using a hair dryer (maintaining a distance
of three inches) or using a Testifire detector tester per the
manufacturer’s instructions.
