The appropriate yellow alarm fault LED on the 
control board illuminates

The 

Algemeen Storing LED

 pulses

The internal buzzer pulses

The fault output operates

Replace the EOL resistor & check that the panel 
returns to quiescent.

15 Check that the alarm circuits are monitoring the wir-

ing for short circuits correctly. Place a wire link 
across the EOL resistor in the last device on the cir-
cuit and check that after a few seconds:

The 

Signaalgevers; Storing/Uit LED

 on 

the Display pulses.

The appropriate yellow alarm fault LED on the 
control board illuminates.

The 

Algemeen Storing LED

 pulses.

The internal buzzer pulses.

The fault output operates.

Remove the link & check that the panel returns to 
quiescent.

16 Repeat Steps 13 to 15 for alarm circuit 2 and the 

extinguishing alarm circuit.

17 Ensure that the Actuators are disconnected from the 

circuit cabling and are replaced with a suitable load 
as described above.

18 Remove the end of line device from the Actuator Cir-

cuit 1 terminals in the panel and connect the field 
cabling. After a few seconds observe that the panel 
returns to the quiescent condition.

19 Repeat open circuit & short circuit tests on actuator 

circuit 1 and check that the control panel reacts as 
follows:

The 

Blussturing Storing & Algemeen 

Storing LEDs 

pulse

The appropriate Actuator Fault LED on the control 
board illuminates

The internal buzzer pulses

The fault output operates

20 Repeat Steps 18 and 19 on Actuator circuit 2.

21 Any additional monitored circuits being used should 

also be connected in turn and checked for correct 
open/short circuit fault monitoring by removing or 
short-circuiting the EOL resistor on each circuit and 
checking that the correct fault indication is given on 
the panel.

Fault indications should clear once the EOL resistor 
is returned to normal.

22 Check that the 

HANDBEDIENING LED

 is illuminated. 

If not, press the 

AUTO & HAND / ALLEEN HAND

button once so that the 

HANDBEDIENING LED

 illu-

minates

23 Place zones 1 & 2 into the One-Man-Test mode as 

follows:

– Press the 

SELECTEER AAN/UIT

 button. The 

SELECT cursor should flash on the 

DOORMELD-

ING BRAND

 fault LED.

– Press the 

SELECT 

button. The cursor should 

move to the 

Groep 1

 fault LED.

– Press the 

TEST 

button. The 

Groep 1

 & 

Groep 

2

 fault LEDs should illuminate steady (with a cur-

sor flash on 

Groep 1

 fault LED). The 

TEST LED

should also illuminate steady.

– Press the 

SELECTEER AAN/UIT

 button to switch 

off the flashing cursor, leaving the 

Groep 1

 & 

Groep 2

 fault LEDs and the TEST LED illumi-

nated steady.

24 Activate the first detector on zone 1 and check that 

the control panel reacts as follows:

The red 

Groep 1

 Fire LED illuminates steady

Sounder circuits 1 & 2 operate

The internal buzzer in the control panel sounds

After four seconds the panel should automatically 
reset, resetting the detector and energising the 
RESET relay for 10 seconds.

25 Repeat step 24 above for all detectors on zone 1.

26 Repeat Steps  24 and 25

for zone 2, checking that the 

red Groep 2 Fire LED illuminates steady instead of 
the Zone 1 Fire LED.

27 Return zones 1 & 2 to normal as follows:

Press the 

SELECTEER AAN/UIT 

button. The 

SELECT 

cursor should flash on the 

DOORMELD-

ING BRAND

 fault LED.

Press the 

SELECT

 button. The cursor should 

move to the 

Groep 1

 fault LED.

Press the 

INSCHAKELEN

 button. The 

Groep 1

 & 

Groep 2

 fault LEDs should clear (with a cursor 

flash on 

Groep 1

 fault LED). The TEST LED 

should also clear.

Press the 

SELECTEER AAN/UIT

 button to switch 

off the flashing cursor.

28 Place the Auxiliary Zone into the One-Man-Test 

mode (using the 

SELECT

 cursor as for zones 1 & 2). 

Activate each detector & call point in turn and check 
that the panel responds as in 24 above (except that 
the 

EXTERNE GROEP

 Fire LED operates instead of 

the 

GROEP 1

 Fire LED).

29 Return the Auxiliary Zone to normal operation.

30 Operate the panel mounted Manual Release Point 

and check that the panel reacts as follows:

The red 

Handactivering LED

 pulses.

The red 

Systeem Aktief LED

 illuminates 

steady.

The 

EXTINGUISHING SOUNDER

 circuit operates

Actuator circuits 1 & 2 operate.

The internal buzzer in the control panel sounds. 

31 Activate the Pressure Switch input (if fitted) and 

check that the panel reacts as follows:
