4-2.3 Initiating-Devices Test
The ARIES Control Unit automatically tests all of the initiating devices connected to the
signaling line circuit on a daily basis.
You should re-test the initiating devices by using the procedure in Paragraph 3-2.5.2.5.1.
Investigate any "Device-Failed" messages and replace any defective initiating devices as
appropriate.
4-2.4 Walk Test
Confirm acceptable fire-signature-entry characteristics for all automatic initiating devices
by using the procedure in either Paragraph 3-2.5.2.5.2 or Paragraph 3-2.5.2.5.3. Use
these procedures to confirm that all monitor modules are also working correctly.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

Verify that the system continues to operate in accordance with its approved sequence of
operation. Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 show a typical sequence of operation for a waterless
fire-suppression system.
Note: These figures are for example only. Every system is unique and requires its own
approved sequence of operation.
