Chapter 4: Smoke control acceptance and testing
3. Individually activate each detector. Verify that the
appropriate alarm and location message is displayed
on the LCD module. Verify the UM or MAB initiates
the appropriate system responses.
4. Duct mounted detectors should be tested to verify
that minimum and maximum airflow requirements
are met and that smoke control actions or overrides
are functioning.
5. Remove the detector from its base. Verify that the
appropriate trouble and location message is
displayed on the LCD module.
Initial acceptance testing for beam detectors
1. Test the detector at the receiver.
2. Use test cards and obscuration filters supplied with
the unit's installation kit.
3. Follow installation instructions for testing for total
obscuration and then use filters to verify sensitivity.
Smoke control input
modules
Every input module connected to the smoke control
system should be visited, and manually activated during
the installation process to verify that:
•
The installed location of the initiating device
connected to the module meets proper engineering
practices.
•
The location annunciated by the system agrees with
the physical location and function of the initiating
device.
•
The initiating device/module activates the correct
smoke control system response.
Initial acceptance testing for Signature Series input
modules
1. Verify that all components are installed in a
workmanlike manner.
2. Individually activate each initiation device. Verify that
the appropriate circuit type and location message is
displayed on the LCD and graphic annunciator.
Verify that the circuit initiates the appropriate system
responses.

3. Open the circuit. Verify that the appropriate circuit
trouble and location message is displayed on the
LCD module.
Initial acceptance testing for manual stations (for
stairwell pressurization only)
1. Verify that all components are installed in a
workmanlike manner.
2. Activate the mechanism.
3. Verify that the appropriate circuit type and location
message is displayed on the LCD module. The
graphic annunciator panel, tailored to each
installation may use only a single alarm LED to
indicate multiple device conditions. Verify that the
device initiates the appropriate smoke control
system zone and design response.
4. Open the circuit. Verify that the appropriate trouble
and location message is displayed on the LCD.
Smoke control output
modules
Every output module connected to the system should be
visited, and manually activated during the installation
process to verify that:
•
The installed location of the controlled device meets
proper engineering practices.
•
The location of the controlled device annunciated by
the system agrees with the physical location of the
device.
•
The device is activated by the correct system inputs.
Initial acceptance testing for Signature series output
modules
1. Verify that all components are installed in a
workman like manner.
2. Using the Activate Output command, individually
activate each output. Verify that the device responds
appropriately and the LED and graphic annunciator
LEDs light.
3. For supervised output circuits, open up the circuit.
Verify that the appropriate circuit trouble and
location message is displayed on the LCD module.
