INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL
8. ZONE TEST
8.1 WHY USE ZONE TEST
To aid commissioning and assist routine maintenance check, a non-latching 'one man test' facility is available.
When a detector or manual call point is triggered on any zone in Test, the Alarm sounders operate for approximately five seconds on
and seven seconds off. This cycle continues until the cause of the Alarm is removed (either by the test smoke clearing from the
detector or the manual call point being reset), at which point, the detector circuit also automatically resets.
Should an Alarm occur on a zone that is not programmed to test, the Alarm will be processed in the normal way. The testing of the
zone in test will temporarily be suspended until the Alarm(s) from the other zones are reset. At this point, zone retesting may
resume.

For safety reasons, it is not possible to leave a zone in test while performing other maintenance functions (Such as disablement).
This stops the possibility of leaving a section in test mode while another part of the system is being investigated.
Trying to select disablement mode while test mode is active will result in the panel giving a warning tone, and a reminder that the
panel is in test mode. Test mode must then be exited (By pressing
accessed.
If a panel does need both disablements & test mode to be applied at the same time, the disablement should be performed first.
8.3 IDENTIFYING ZONES IN TEST MODE ON A PANEL SHOWING MULTIPLE EVENTS
On the infinity panel, a Zone in test is indicated by a fast flashing GENERAL TEST LED, along with a specific zone test LED.
But to allow the user to be 100% certain of any zones in test mode if the panel is showing multiple events, momentarily pressing the
button at Access Level 2 will hide all other events for a few seconds, leaving only the Zone in test visible.
