Continue to test each of the other detectors in turn, checking on each removal that:

The appropriate amber zone fault LED illuminates

The internal buzzer sounds.

The fault relay operates.

5.Repeat steps 1 to 4, one zone at a time, until all the zones are commissioned.

6.Any faults that are found must be traced and rectified before proceeding.

13.7.3Commissioning the Class Change Input

1.Connect the Class Change switch to the class change input on the motherboard.

2.Operate the class change switch and observe:

i)The alarms sound for 5 seconds then stop.

ii)The internal buzzer on the panel does not operate.

iii)The internal buzzer on repeaters does not operate.

3.De-activate the class change switch

13.7.4Commissioning the Fire and Fault Routing Outputs

1.Remove the resistor from the Fire Routing output circuit terminals and connect the field wiring to the terminals, observing correct polarity. Check that any fault indications clear after a few seconds.

2.To operate the output, initiate a fire condition on a zone. Check that the fire signal is received at the receiving station. Silence and reset the fire alarm panel to clear the output.

3.Remove the resistor from the Fault Routing output circuit terminals and connect the field wiring to the terminals, observing correct polarity. Check that any fault indications clear after a few seconds.

4.Initiate a fault condition on the fire alarm panel to signal a fault to the remote receiving station.

5.Confirm the receipt of the fault warning at the receiving station.

6.Open-circuit the output wiring of each circuit in turn, confirm the fire alarm panel indicates Fire Routing and Fault Routing faults appropriately.

7.Reconnect the cabling and confirm the faults clear.

13.7.5Commissioning the Fire Protection control signal

1.Ensure any fire protection equipment to be controlled via the Fire Protection output is locked off/safe before attempting any connection, testing or commissioning.

2.Remove the resistor from the Fire Protection output circuit terminal and connect the field wiring to the terminals, observing correct polarity. Check that any fault indications clear after a few seconds.

3.Initiate a fire condition on a zone to operate the output. Check that the fire signal operates the interface relay adjacent the fire protection equipment.

4.Open-circuit the field wiring and confirm that the fire alarm panel indicates Fire Protection output fault.

Another notable characteristic is its built-in carbon monoxide detector. Carbon monoxide is a silent killer, and the Mx-1000 addresses this threat by providing early warning signals when harmful levels of this gas are detected. The integration of both smoke and carbon monoxide detection in a single unit simplifies safety measures and reduces the number of devices required for home and workplace safety.

The Mx-1000 is equipped with advanced digital technology that enhances its functionality. A state-of-the-art microprocessor evaluates alarm conditions more intelligently, which minimizes the chances of false alarms. This feature is particularly beneficial for households that might experience frequent smoke triggers from cooking or other benign sources.

User-friendliness is a key design aspect of the Mx-1000. It features a clear LED display that indicates the operational status, and a simple test button allows users to verify functionality with ease. The device also features a low-battery indicator, ensuring users are always informed about its operational state.

Installation is straightforward, with options for both wall and ceiling mounting to accommodate various room layouts. The Mx-1000 is designed to appeal to a wide range of customers, from DIY enthusiasts to professional installers.

In addition to its technological advancements, the BRK electronic Mx-1000 is built with reliability in mind. Its durable construction is meant to endure various conditions, ensuring longevity and consistent performance over time. This combination of top-tier technology, user-friendly features, and robust design makes the Mx-1000 a trusted choice for those seeking comprehensive safety solutions in smoke and carbon monoxide detection.
