Using the drill command
You can use the drill command to activate all of the notification appliance circuits.
Pressing Drill activates all audibles and visibles according to the panel
programming, but does not activate the panel’s common alarm relay. The F-
DACT(F) can be programmed to transmit a drill condition, but it will never report
the drill as an alarm. Drill will not operate with an active alarm or supervisory
event at the panel.
To perform a fire drill:
1. Press and hold the Signal Silence & Drill button for one second.
2. To stop the drill, press and hold the Signal Silence & Drill button for one
second.
