3.1 POSSIBLE CAUSES OF FAULT ALARMS
a) Receiver placed in the Reset state. Check that
the Test/Reset Switch (Fig. 1) is set to OFF.
b) The beam between the Transmitter and the
Receiver is obscured for more than 94% of the
beam area for one second. Check the beam is
not obscured or that the round glass areas on
the Transmitter or Receiver are dirty. Clean as
required.
c) Signal Level Control set too low at the
Receiver. Turn control (RV1) clockwise.
d) Receiver in Test mode. Ensure the Test/Reset
switch set to OFF.
e) Misalignment of the Transmitter and Receiver
detectors. Re-align as in the Alignment
procedure.
f) Loss of power. Check out the power supplies.
g) Source of infra-red setting of the alarm. Check
for sources of infra-red. For example: heat
emitting lights (eg, incandescent light bulbs),
direct sunlight, heaters and radiators at close
proximity to detectors.
