Periodic Automatic Testing
Periodic automatic tests are performed on all seismic zones for which automatic tests are enabled.
Automatic tests are randomized within the configured test period and are done independently for each
area.
All seismic zones in the same area (for which automatic tests are enabled) are tested simultaneously.
The
Seismic Test Interval
configuration option in the
System Timers
menu (see
determines the average test period for seismic sensors automatic tests. The default value is 168 hours
(7 days) and the allowed values are in the range 12–240 hours.
The test time is random within the specified range +/- 15%. For example, if a test is scheduled every 24
hours, a test may be performed between 20.4 and 27.6 hours after the last test.
A seismic test is performed after a reboot if automatic tests are enabled. If the panel was in Full
Engineer mode before reboot, then the test is performed only after the panel is out of Full Engineer
mode after a reboot.
If a seismic test fails, a Trouble event is reported (SIA code “BT”). There is also a corresponding
Restoration event (SIA code “BJ”).
Automatic Test on Setting
The option
Seismic Test on Set
is configurable in the
Options
menu (see
on page 252). If
enabled, all seismic zones in all areas that are to be set are tested before the usual setting sequence.
This applies to keypad operation only.
While the test is being performed, ‘SEISMIC AUTOTEST’ is displayed on the keypad. If the seismic
test succeeds, the setting proceeds as normal.
If all areas or an area group or a single area are selected to be set, and a seismic test fails, then
‘SEISMIC FAIL’ will be displayed. Pressing
Return
displays a list of the failed zones which can be
scrolled through using the up and down arrow keys.
Depending on the
Inhibit
settings for the failed seismic zones and your user profile, the following can
occur:
l
If all of the seismic zones that failed the test have the
Inhibit
attribute set, and your user profile
user is configured with the
Inhibit
right:
1. Press
Return
on any of the failed zones.
The message “FORCE SET ALL?” is displayed.
2. Press
Return
again to inhibit all seismic zones that failed the test. (Alternatively, go back to the
previous menu.)
Setting proceeds as normal.
l
If some of the seismic zones that failed the test do not have the
Inhibit
attribute set or your user
profile user does not have the
Inhibit
right, press
Return
.
The message ‘FAIL TO SET’ will be displayed and no areas will be set.
There is no automatic seismic test for areas that are auto-set for any reason (for example, areas
activated by a calendar or trigger). Likewise there is no automatic seismic test when the system is set
with SPC Com or the browser. However, there is an automatic seismic test when a virtual keypad is
used with SPC Com.
No event is reported if seismic testing on set fails.
The periodic automatic system test timer restarts after a test is performed after setting.
21.1.3 Manually Testing Sensors
To manually test sensors, select the TEST > SEISMIC TEST option from the TEST menu on the
keypad.
