OPERATING

Test Mode is used when testing the fire alarm system. In test mode the devices in the zone(s) in test, 

detectors and call points etc, can be activated and the panel will automatically reset, enabling the system 

to be tested by one person. It is possible to test head removal monitoring and to test the system with or 

without the sounders.

To initialise Test Mode, firstly activate the controls by turning the key 

switch or by entering the four digit code. Then press and hold the Test 

Mode button (2) for 3 seconds.

After  3  seconds  the  panel  will  bleep  and  the  Test  Mode  LED  and 
Zone  1  Fault  LED  will  pulse  slowly,  indicating  that  Zone  1  is  in  test 
selection mode. The Sounder Status LED will also be pulsing rapidly, this indicates that the test will be 

with

 sounders. (Test mode without sounders is explained below)

Pressing the Test Mode button again will move test selection mode to Zone 2 and the Zone 2 Fault LED will 
be pulsing instead. Subsequent presses will move the selection to Zones 3 - 12, dependant on the number 
of zones fitted to the panel. I.e up to zone 4 on a 4 zone, 6 on a 6 zone, 8 on a 8 zone etc.. 

After the last available zone the next press will move the selection mode to the sounder circuits, indicated 
by no Zone Fault LEDs on. This position selects whether or not the sounders will ring during test. Pressing 
the button once more will move the selection back to Zone 1 again.

When the desired zone to be tested is indicated by a slow pulsing LED, use the ENTER button to select 
it. Once selected the indicator LED will change to a rapid pulse. Pressing 
ENTER again will toggle the zone between in and out of test. Then use 
Test Mode button again to move to the next zone. Any or all zones can be 

in test mode simultaneously.

When  at  the  sounder  status  position,  use  the  ENTER  button  to  toggle 
between testing with or without sounders. A rapid pulse = with sounders 
(default), a slow pulse = without sounders.

When all zones to be tested have been selected, press and hold the Test Mode button for 3 seconds again. 
This will exit the test selection mode. All zones in test and the Test Mode will now be indicated by a steady 
LED.

To take zones out of test mode, repeat the above process using the Test Mode button to select the zone  
and the ENTER button to change the status.

Test Mode With Sounders

Activation of a call point or detector - sounders will pulse twice, device is automatically reset.
Removal of a detector - sounders will pulse once.

Test Mode Without Sounders

Activation of a call point or detector - panel buzzer and LED response only, device is automatically reset.

Tip:

With the controls active, pressing the Test Mode button briefly will reveal which circuits are in test mode 
(as opposed to disabled). This is useful if using Disable Mode and Test Mode at the same time.
