Section 16. TESTING THE SYSTEM

Test Procedure
After installation is completed, the 5110XM System should be carefully tested, as
follows:
1. With the System in the "SYSTEM NORMAL" state all zones should be
intact. If a fault message is displayed, press the [*] key to display the
faulted zone(s). Restore faulted zone(s) if necessary, so that "SYSTEM
NORMAL" message is displayed.
2. Perform the FIRE WALK TEST This test causes the keypad buzzer to beep and
the optional alarm sounders (if connected) to sound momentarily in response to
short circuits on zones programmed as types 09, 16, or 17 only. The control will
NOT be active during this test
To initiate the ONE MAN FIRE WALK TEST enter the Master Code + [#]
[6][8] on any remote keypad. When first activated alarm sounders (if used)
will sound for 3 seconds and all keypad segments will light to verify proper
operation. The control will send a walk test start report to the central
station. The following will be displayed on an alpha keypad:
Fault and restore each fire alarm sensor one at a time. Each fault will cause
keypads to beep and fire bells (if used) to sound. (Auxiliary relay will also
ding if set for alarm function 1 in field *34 and if assigned in field *85 to the
fire zone that was faulted.) The keypads will also display the faulted zone
for as long as the fault remains. The 5110XM will initiate an automatic
smoke detector reset 10 seconds after a smoke detector has been faulted in
order to reset that smoke. Once reset, the keypad display for that zone
should clear.
To exit this test enter ANY User Code + OFF, or the test will automatically
terminate after 30 minutes if no faults are sensed. The control will send a
walk test end report to the central station.
Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following
tests 3 and 4. Notify them in advance that tests will be in progress.
3. With the System in the "SYSTEM NORMAL" state fault one or more zones.
Silence alarm sounder(s) by pressing the silence/reset button or entering the
code and pressing OFF (if a keypad is being used).
4. Check the keypad-initiated alarms (if used) by pressing the appropriate
emergency key(s). If the system has been programmed for audible emergency,
the keypad and built-in warning buzzer will emit a steady alarm sound, and
ALARM and zone number will be displayed. Silence alarm sounder(s) by
pressing the silence/reset button (or entering the code and pressing OFF). If
the control has been programmed for silent alarm, there will be no audible
alarms or displays, but a report will be sent to the central station.
5 Notify the central station when all tests are finshed, and verify results with
them.
