Test Mode
To aid commissioning and assist routine maintenance check, a non-latching ‘one man test’ facility is available.
When a detector or manual call point is triggered on any zone in Test, the Alarm sounders operate for
approximately seven seconds on and seven seconds off. This cycle continues until the cause of the Alarm is
removed (either by the test smoke clearing from the detector or the manual call point being reset), at which point,
the detector circuit also automatically resets.
Should an Alarm occur on a zone that is not programmed to test, the Alarm will be processed in the normal way.
The testing of the zone in test will temporarily be suspended until the Alarm(s) from the other zones are reset.
At this point, zone retesting may resume.

•
Crossed zones 1 & 2
•
Peripheral zones 3 to 6
•
First Stage sounders
•
Second stage sounders
•
First stage relay
