Operating the Detector Operating the Detector This chapter describes how to power up and test the detector. It also includes some very important safety checks that you should complete before operating the detector. Powering Up This section describes how to turn on the detector. Follow these instructions carefully to obtain optimal performance from the detector over its life cycle: To power up the detector: Turn on the detector.
Operating the Detector • You should only access the wiring compartment to wire or remove the detector, or to access RS-485 terminals for maintenance. • External devices such as automatic extinguishing systems must be disconnected or disabled before carrying out any maintenance. 4.2.1 Default Functions Settings Table 15 lists the default function configuration supplied with the detector.
Power up the system and wait up to 60 seconds for the detector to turn to a normal state. The Power LED turns on. Aim the SPECTREX Flame Simulator Model FS-1200 at the target point of the detector (Figure 14), such that the radiation emitted by it is facing directly towards the detector.
This chapter deals with preventive maintenance, describes possible faults in detector operation and indicates corrective measures. Ignoring these instructions may cause problems with the detector and may invalidate the warranty. Whenever a unit requires service, please contact SPECTREX or its authorized distributor for assistance. Maintenance This section describes the basic maintenance steps that should be taken to keep the detector in good working condition.
• Entries for every maintenance operation performed, including a description of the operation, date, and personnel ID If a unit is sent to SPECTREX or a distributor for service, a copy of the maintenance records should accompany it. Troubleshooting This section is a guide to correct problems which may happen during normal operation.
