7.1.2 Manual Operation Test

This option gives the user the opportunity to manually initiate an individual test for each relay, the analog output
and the sensor response to gas. From normal operation mode press the Next button 3 times to get to the Test Mode
(tSt). Press the Enter button once to get into the Test Menu. Press the Next button to scroll through the four test
options and press Enter to initiate the selected test. Note that if the relay or 4–20 mA output has been disabled, the
test selection will not be displayed in the test menu.
bUZ –Buzzer test, 3 seconds
Art - Alarm Relay Test, 10 seconds
Frt - Fan Relay Test, 60 seconds
42t - 420 loop test, 25 seconds
gtS - Gas Test, 3 minutes (no output to the panel during the gas test)
The display will flash during the test or in the case of the gas test the level will alternate with the expected gas (mE,
Pro or Hy). Once the test is complete, the display will return to steady display. To exit the test menu, press the Next
button until "End" is displayed, then press Enter to return to normal mode.

7.2 Calibration and Test Kits

The following steps must be performed when conducting a calibration or
calibration verification test (bump test) to ensure proper performance of the
monitor. Failure to do so may adversely affect product performance.
When performing a calibration or calibration verification test (bump test)
•
only use certified calibration gas at the required concentration level.
• Do not test with expired calibration gas.
• Do not cover or obstruct display or visual alarm cover.
Ensure sensor inlets are unobstructed and are free of debris
•
Failure to follow instructions outlined in this user manual can result in sickness or
death.
When performing a calibration or calibration verification test (bump test) only use certified calibration gas at
•
the required concentration level. Do not calibrate with expired calibration gas.
If the instrument cannot be calibrated, do not use until the reason can be determined and corrected.
•
Do not cover or obstruct display or visual alarm cover.
•
• Ensure sensor inlets are unobstructed and is free of debris
A Field Calibration Kit, Cal-Kit 1, and one bottle of calibration gas is needed to complete gas test. These are available
through local distribution or from Macurco.
NOTE: GD-xx must be tested or calibrated at regular intervals in accordance with the requirements of the National
Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 720 or local code requirements. Macurco recommends testing and calibration at
REV – 1.0.0
