17. Recommended Additional Sounder Monitoring

The 5000 FirePoint control panels have the ability to carry out additional checks on the
UHF transmission path, which operates sounder type devices. This procedure is
automatically implemented if a sounder type device is allocated to slot 256 on the
control panel. It is therefore recommended that on each control panel a sounder type
device which is in close vicinity to the control panel (between 5-10 metres away) is
allocated to slot 256.
The additional monitoring incorporates a silent sounder command to be transmitted and
an acknowledgement command signal to then be received by the control panel. If the
acknowledgement command is not successfully received at the control panel a sounder
test fail fault will be displayed for device 256 on the associated control panel.
If this type of fault does occur then checks should be carried out on the system in
relation to the operation of sounder type devices.
