MAINTENANCE Manual Testing Loop Test: (8 mA / 12mA / 16mA): Pressing the “Loop Test” pushbutton, will manually test the loop and connected actuators/indicators. The loop test forces the output and corresponding LED’s to shift from 8 mA to 12 mA (only 962) to 16 mA back to 8 mA. The time delay setting is not active during testing.
