PRELIMINARY PROCEDURES
Ensure that the following tasks were successfully completed:
•
The ARIES Control Unit is securely mounted in a clean and dry area that has
a normal range of environmental temperatures.
•
The power supply unit has been configured correctly for the AC supply
voltage.
•
All field wiring has been checked for continuity, earth grounds, and short
circuits. Wiring resistance and capacitance values have been measured and
recorded, where appropriate.
•
All SLC-based initiating devices and relay/control modules are electronically
addressed, or will be addressed shortly after the control unit is powered up.
SLC wiring is not connected to the control unit.
•
The initiating circuits for all AI Monitor Modules are terminated with 10 k
Ohms end-of-line resistors.
•
Peripheral devices such as RDCMs and ATMs have their address switches
correctly set.
•
Field wiring for all control unit-based NACs is terminated with 10 kOhm end-
of-line resistors.
•
All control heads for special-extinguishing systems, if used, are removed
from the agent storage containers.
•
All actuator circuits have been replaced by simulated loads.
•
Pre-Action/deluge solenoids are removed from the valves that control the
distribution of water to the sprinkler heads.
INITIAL POWER-UP AND CONTROL-UNIT CHECKOUT
The ARIES power-up procedure is as follows:
1. Close the circuit breaker to apply AC power to the control unit. Verify that
the green "Power On" LED illuminates and the display shows this message
for approximately 15 seconds:

2. Confirm that the yellow Trouble LED is lit and that the following message
appears for 10 to 20 seconds.
