CHECKING AND MOUNTING YOUR
ALARMS
INSPECTION & TESTING PROCEDURE
After installation, after re-occupation following a holiday,
and weekly, check all your Alarms as follows:
Check the green light is illuminated on the mounting plate.
This shows the panel is supplying power.
Press the test button for up to 10 seconds to ensure the
sensor chamber, electronics and sounder are working. A
red light on the cover will flash while horn is sounding. The
relay contacts change over when the horn sounds with the
Ei186 units. They change over 6 seconds after the horn
sounds with the Ei181 & Ei184 units. The alarm will stop
when the button is released. Pressing the test button
simulates the effect of smoke or heat during a real fire and
is the best way to ensure the Alarm is operating correctly.
WARNING: DO NOT TEST WITH FLAME.
