The FDCIO223 input/output module features the following modes:
Normal operation

Test/inspection

Localization

Normal operation
The input/output module FDCIO223 is in intended operation. The inputs are
monitored and evaluated. The outputs can be triggered.
Test/inspection
With test mode/inspection mode, the input/output module functions according to
how the input/output and fire control panel are configured.
Instead, activation in test mode/inspection mode will merely be signaled by means
of LEDs on the input/output module.
If the input/output module FDCIO223 is operated with a control panel FS20/FS720,
no control outputs will be triggered in the event of activation in test mode/inspection
mode.
The input/output module is meant to respond quickly in test mode/inspection mode.
Consequently, the lines are operated as follows in test mode:
With detector lines, the alarm verification is deactivated

With contact inputs, the filter time is deactivated

Error messages are transmitted immediately and are not filtered.

Localization
To enable clear identification, the FDCIO223 input/output module can be set to
localization mode from the control panel.
Localization mode is signaled by the LEDs.
