Office Alarm Test
Description
This test verifies proper operation and wiring of the office alarms in a
network equipment building system (NEBS) environment.
Audible and visual reporting of critical, major, minor alarms will be
verified.
Prerequisite
The following is a list of items to verify before beginning tests in this
section.
•
The Metropolis
®
DMXtend Main OLIUs should be optically
looped from the previous section. Verify that the Metropolis
®
DMXtend shelf is clear of all alarms (only green LEDs are
lighted) prior to and after completing this test.
•
The office alarm cable will be temporarily connected during
this procedure. Table 5-1, Office Alarm Connections (page
5-5) lists the office alarms connections.
•
It is a requirement that alarms on the Metropolis
®
DMXtend
do not affect and are not affected by other equipment via
office alarm connections. During this test, the alarm state of
other equipment connected to the same office alarms as the
Metropolis
®
DMXtend should be examined after creating or
clearing every alarm.
•
A properly grounded ESD wrist strap must always be worn
while handling circuit packs.
•
This test should be performed on all shelves where office
alarm reporting is required.
•
After completing the office alarm test, the Metropolis
®
DMXtend office alarms should be disconnected from the
office alarm system for the remainder of the test procedures.
This will prevent the office alarms from being activated
while performing the other tests in this section.
