9.4SYSTEM TEST
Speak to your Installer before conducting a System Test since the system must be programmed to respond to the test instructions. It is normally recommended that you conduct the system test once a week, but contact your Installer for instructions concerning your particular system.
To conduct a system test:
1.Call your Central Monitoring Station to advise them that you are testing your system.
2.Enter your [ACCESS CODE].
3.Press the [8] button. The system will test all its connections and can send a report to your Central Monitoring Station. If the system detects a problem, the Trouble Display will show on the LCD screen (Refer to section 7.0 on page 14). Call your Installer for repairs if any Troubles occur.
10.0FIRE AND BURGLAR ALARMS
10.1STANDARD FIRE ZONE
During a fire alarm, the bell/siren emits an intermittent sound
To disarm a false alarm:
1.Enter your [ACCESS CODE] on the keypad.
2.Call your Central Monitoring Station quickly to advise them of the false alarm.
The Fire Zone may reset itself once the problem has cleared. If it does not, simultaneously press and hold the [CLEAR] and [ENTER] buttons for two seconds.
10.2DELAYED FIRE ZONE
If the zone is a Delayed Fire Zone, there is an automatic delay before your system contacts your Central Monitoring Station. Refer to Figure 10.1 on page 18 to prevent unnecessary reporting of false alarms.
If the fire alarm is triggered accidentally:
1.Press the [CLEAR] button within 30 seconds of the alarm.
2.Clear the problem from the area (i.e. clear the smoke from around the smoke detector).
3.If the problem remains after 90 seconds, the alarm will sound again. Press [CLEAR] again. The system will delay reporting the alert for another 30 seconds.
If you are unable to cancel the false alarm, your system will send an alert. Call your Central
Monitoring Station to advise them of the false alarm.
The Fire Zone may reset itself once the smoke has cleared. If it does not, simultaneously press and hold the [CLEAR] and [ENTER] buttons for two seconds or speak to your installer.
