Fire alarm system maintenance

Perform the following maintenance tasks to ensure that the fire alarm system
works correctly and complies with all required European regulations.
Note: Before performing any tests, ensure that fire routing (if configured) is
disabled or that the fire brigade has been notified.
Quarterly maintenance
Test at least one device per zone and verify that the control panel responds to all
fault and alarm events. The control panel power supply and battery voltage
should be checked.
Annual maintenance
Test all system devices and verify that the control panel responds to all fault and
alarm events. All electrical connections must be visually inspected to make sure
that they are securely fastened, that they have not been damaged, and that they
are appropriately protected.
Cleaning the control panel
Keep the outside and inside of the control panel clean. Carry out periodic
cleaning using a damp cloth for the outside. Do not use products containing
solvents to clean the control panel. Do not clean the inside of the cabinet with
liquid products.
