FCP-500 Series
Notify all concerned parties before any maintenance or testing of the fire alarm sy
stem, and after completion of these activities.
7. Sensitivity Test
1. Activate the dry reed contact (Section 5, Dry Reed Contact).
2. Leave the magnet on the test tool by the dry reed contact for 5 sec. Count 5 flashes of the LED.
3. Remove the test tool. Refer to Table 8 for the LED Display.
Table 8: Sensitivity Test LED Display
Number of Red LED Flashes
1 to 3
4 to 6

8. Smoke Test for the FCP-500 / FCP-500-P
Note: No testing gas (smoke aerosol) is required! For testing use only:
- Test Tool for Optical Smoke Detectors Solo 330 (Product ID 4.998.112.071)
- with FAA-500-TTL Test Adapter with Magnet (Product ID F.01U.508.725)
1. Activate the dry reed contact (Section 5., Dry Reed Contact).
2. Leave the magnet on the test tool by the dry reed contact for at least 2 sec and not more than 4 sec.
Count two flashes of the LED. The detector stays in test mode for 60 sec. The green LED blinks once a
second.
3. Hold the test tool under the detector so that the test beaker is flush with the trim ring.
Note: Do not tip the test tool, or the detector might come loose.
4. By covering the scattered light areas, both optical sensors are triggered simultaneously (no smoke
aerosol is required).
5. This can take up to 20 sec. An alarm activates and the red LED lights. If the panel is in test mode, the
alarm resets automatically.
9. CO and Smoke Test for the FCP-500-C / FCP-500-C-P
The CO sensor has not been evaluated to the requirements of UL 2075 or for its ability to
detect a fire.
The FCP-500-C and FCP-500-C-P detect carbon monoxide (CO) as a component of a fire.
It is not a CO detector and cannot activate an alarm in the presence of CO only. It is
used to adjust the sensitivity of the smoke detector.
Perform the CO sensor test once a year to confirm that the sensor is functioning.
Note: For testing use only:
-
Test Tool for Optical Smoke Detectors Solo 330 (Product ID 4.998.112.071)
-
with FAA-500-TTL Test Adapter with Magnet (Product ID F.01U.508.725)
-
Solo CO Testing Gas (Product ID 4.998.142.221)
1. Conduct step 1 to 5 of Section 8. (Smoke Test) to ensure that the smoke sensor is functioning. After this
an alarm activates and the red LED lights steady. Don't reset the detector.
2. If over 70 ppm of carbon monoxide is applied to the detector, the red LED of the detector starts flashing.
This indicates that the carbon monoxide sensor is working.
3. Reset the detector by removing the power.
