Overview
This test intends to check whether the optical and acoustic elements of the control
unit function faultlessly.
Procedure
Check the control unit as follows:
1. Press the key 'Lamp test/Sounder test'
The buzzer sounds.
All LEDs light up.
2. Check whether all LEDs light up and the buzzer sounds.
Overview
By simulating an alarm you can check the following functions of the fire detection
system:
Remote transmission (e.g. transmission to the fire brigade)
Alarming devices (e.g. horns and flashlights).
Fire control installations
Before simulating an alarm, inform the fire brigade to avoid an unnecessary

occur. When you are not sure, switch the fire control installations off.
Procedure
Simulate an alarm as follows:
1. Inform accordingly (e.g. the fire brigade) on the pending simulation.
2. Press the numerical key '1' and keep it pressed.
3. Press the zone key '1'.
Alarm is simulated.
The red zone LED lights up.
The alarm sequence has been activated.
4. Check whether the alarm sequence is correct. Zones with manual call points will
trigger alarm immediately. Zones with automatic detectors will trigger alarm after
the expiry of the delay periods V1 and V2.
5. Check whether the fire control installations have responded correctly.
6. To finish the simulation, press the key 'Acknowledge', then the key 'Reset'.
7. Repeat steps 2 to 5 for all zones.
