Cause And Effect Test - Honeywell Touchpoint Plus Technical Handbook

MAN0984_Iss 2_06/15

8.2.3 Cause and Effect Test

During this test, all field device inputs will be ignored by the Touchpoint Plus system. The Cause and Effect
matrix will be evaluated based on simulated input states and outputs will be generated.
Test outputs will be generated and relays will be activated during the Cause and Effect Test.
Ensure that relay activated output systems (i.e. emergency deluge / sirens etc.) are isolated before starting the
This test has two purposes:
1) To verify that Cause and Effect matrix configuration is correct by forcing the state of the input channels to
various combinations.
2) To check that the output channels are configured correctly, including delay on/off times etc.
To use the Cause and Effect Test mode:
1) Login as an Administrator or Engineer.
2) Select the Menu>System Test>Relay C&E Matrix>Relay channel.
3) Select the channel to be tested.
4) The system will display a matrix of all the input channels that are linked to the output channel being
tested.
5) Select the input channel states that you wish to simulate, and click on 'Simulate'.
6) Check that the relay output state is correct and touch 'Finish'.
7) Repeat steps 2–6 for the next channel.
Maintenance
Ensure that the system is returned to normal operation once testing is complete.
