OPERATING
Test Mode is used when testing the fire alarm system. In test mode the devices in the zone(s) in test,
detectors & call points etc, can be activated and the panel will automatically reset itself, enabling the
system to be tested by one person. It is possible to test the detector head removal monitoring and also to
test the system with or without the sounders.
To initialize Test mode press and hold the Test Mode button (2) for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds
the panel will beep and an Access Code Check dialog will appear on the display.
TEST MODE
Enter the 4 digits of the access code to access the Test Mode Menu.
Note: - Using the Remote Display Unit, it is only possible to put entire panels into test mode. Should it be
required to set individual zones into test then this must be done at the local panel.
Firstly select the target panel using the scroll buttons and press the ENTER button.
1. ALL ZONES - Press the ENTER button to change the setting to YES. This will set all zones in the
selected panel to test mode. Setting to NO using the enter button is used to take a panel out of test
mode if previously set. This can also be used if individual zones are in test mode on a particular
panel.
2. TEST WITH SOUNDERS - Set to preferred requirement, YES/NO, using the ENTER button.
3. Confirm - Press the ENTER button to send the setting to the required panel.
4. Go Back - Press the ENTER button to exit the menu with no changes.
Note:- it is possible to place all the panels in a network into test simultaneously.
When Test mode has been set the display will show ‘The system is in test mode’
A panel (or zone) in test mode will not send fire signals to other panels in the network. A fire on a non-test
mode panel will override the test mode and bring full alarm outputs to operate.
Whilst in the test mode menu, holding button 4 for 3 seconds can be used as a short cut to remove
all panels from test mode in one go.
Test Mode Menu - use the scroll buttons to select the menu item and then press the ENTER button
to change the setting.
