Test; Sirens And Sounders - Eaton i-on series Engineering Manual

i-on Range
Disabled
Line Fail Delay
This menu controls the length of time that the control unit waits until starting an alert if the
plug-by communications line fails. The values available are 0 to 60 seconds.
Note: The control unit may take a few seconds to recognise a line fail. The actual delay
between line fail and the resulting alert will be slightly longer than the value you
program within this option.

Test

The control unit provides three options within the Installer Menu to help in testing: the Test
option itself, the View Log option to see what events have been recorded, and the About
option so that you can check on the release level of the software.
If you think that part of the system is not working correctly then you can use the Test
option to test various peripherals.
The Test option also lets you check the identity of Remote controls, Hold Up Alarms and
Proximity Tags.
You can test each part listed in the Test menu as follows:
