Test Mode

ZONE TEST

To put zone(s) into test mode, turn the Activate Controls key-switch to the ON position and press the

TEST MODE button on the keypad. Now use buttons 1 – 4 to select which zone(s) to put into test mode

and press ENTER when all selections have been made. The test mode entry will “time out” within 5

seconds if the ENTER button is not pressed. It is possible to have any or all zones in test mode at the

same time. The Test Mode and Common Fault LEDs will be pulsing. The fault LED of the zone(s) in test

mode will be illuminated and the internal buzzer will be sounding. The operation of any smoke detector

or call point will now ring all bells or sounders for one second. The panel will automatically reset,

providing that the detector is clear of smoke or the call point glass is back in position. The alarms will

then sound momentarily to acknowledge that the panel has reset, so you can move on to the next

device. Press the RESET button on the keypad at any time to exit Test Mode.

The removal of a detector while in test mode will also cause the alarms to sound for one second and

then again momentarily when the detector is replaced, thus enabling a Detector Removal Monitoring

Walk Test. N.B the panel may take a few seconds to recognise a detector has been removed due

to it’s normal monitoring cycle.

ZONE TEST WITHOUT SOUNDERS

To test zones without the operation of any sounders, i.e. visual indications and panel buzzer only. Press

the TEST MODE button on the keypad followed by buttons 1 – 4 to select the zone(s) to put into test.

Then press the SILENCE ALARMS button and then ENTER. The sounders will now be disabled during

all testing. Should a zone which is not in test go into alarm the sounders will operate as per normal.

SOUNDER WALK TEST

A sounder test can be activated by using the SOUND ALARMS button instead of buttons 1 – 4. This

will cause the panel to sound all the bells for one second every eight seconds, allowing the user to walk

to each sounder to check that it is working correctly.

Remember to push each button slowly and deliberately. There is a half second

delay on the buttons to prevent misuse. The panel will bleep to acknowledge

each push of the button.
