Description Action Required and Pass/Fail Criteria
Manual call TEST the operation of each manual call point
points
Panel TEST the operation of each control.
switches and
keypads
Visual TEST the operation of each visual indicator
indicators and alphanumeric displays.
Battery MEASURE system quiescent and maximum
alarm currents in accordance with
Appendix F (of AS 1851).
Calculate the required battery capacity and
CHECK the nominal capacity of the installed
batteries is not less than the calculated
capacity.
Verify that the measured currents are the
same as recorded in the baseline data.
Fire Detectors TEST detectors as specified in Appendix G
(of AS 1851) and confirm correct alarm zone
indication.
Audibility TEST the occupant warning system and
check the signals are distinctly audible in all
areas of the building.
NOTE: In order to reduce the disturbance to
occupants an acceptable means of conducting
this test is to provide an audio signal other
than the warning signal at a reduced sound
pressure level. Where the FIP is connected to
a sound systems and intercom systems for
emergency purposes (AS 1670.4) or EWIS
(AS 2220.2) test in accordance with
Table 6.4.3.2 (of AS 1851).
Service life Inspect detectors, equipment or other items
having a defined service life and report
where the service life is exceeded or will be
exceeded before the next scheduled service.
Interfaced Simulate alarm(s) to verify that each
system interface transmission path initiates the
initiation corresponding interfaced system(s) in
accordance with the approved design.

Test Facility, Procedure,
Notes
Use the Walk Test facility.
See Chapter 10.
See page 12-6.
See Chapter 9.
The 4100ES can display the
system currents during
quiescent and alarm
conditions, to assist the
calculation.
The normal battery test facility
in the 4100ES does not meet
the requirements of this test.
Refer to the notes following
this table.
Use the Walk Test facility.
See Chapter 10.
If a T-GEN 50 is used to
generate the alert tone, you can
either select the low level test
tone or play background music
via the background music
input.
Unless accurate records have
been kept of the installed
detectors, their location and
manufacture date, CO
detectors will require manual
inspection to determine their
expiry date. Refer to
manufacturer's data.
Referring to the baseline data
check that a test alarm (see
Chapter 5) on each appropriate
zone activates the required
output device.
