3. Press the SELECT button until the desired zone is

displayed on the ZONE indicator on the controller

front panel.

4. Press and hold the TEST button. The DETECTOR/

ZONE display indicates the counts per second (cps)

received from the detector. If the counts per second

exceeds 99, the FIRE LOGIC LEDs are illuminated to

indicate that the number shown on the display must

be multiplied by 10. The normal reading for an oi

test is 80 to 110 cps. For a live fire test, 270 - 330
cps will be generated.

A zero reading may indicate a dirty window, oi problem,

faulty detector or defective wiring.

Release the Test button, the ZONE and DETECTOR

display should drop to a reading of 0 to 1 counts per

second.

FIRE ALARM TEST (pulse Output to Fire Alarm panel)
1. Disable any extinguishing equipment that is

connected to the system.

2. Apply input power to the system.
3. Initiate a live fire test or a magnetic oi test. (See

“Magnetic oi / Manual oi” under “Optical Integrity”

in the Description section of this manual.)

4. Repeat this test for all detectors in the system. If

a unit fails the test, refer to the “Troubleshooting”

section.

5. Verify that all detectors in the system are properly

aimed at the area to be protected. (The Det-Tronics

Q1201C Laser Aimer is recommended for this

purpose.)

6. Enable extinguishing equipment when the test is

complete.

WarnIng

The sensor module (“front” half of the detector)
contains no user serviceable components
and should never be opened. The terminal
compartment is the only part of the enclosure that
should be opened by the user in the field.

1. Disable any extinguishing equipment that is

connected to the unit.

2. Inspect the viewing windows for contamination and

clean as necessary. (Refer to the “Maintenance”

section for complete information regarding cleaning

of the detector viewing windows.)

3. Check input power to the unit.
4. Check system and detector logs.
5. Turn off the input power to the detector and check all

wiring for continuity. Important: Disconnect wiring

at the detector before checking system wiring for
continuity.

6. If all wiring checks out and cleaning of the oi plate/

window did not correct the fault condition, check for

high levels of background UV radiation by covering

the detector with the factory supplied cover or

aluminum foil. If the fault condition clears, extreme

background UV radiation is present. Re-adjust the

view of the detector away from the UV source or

relocate the detector.

If none of these actions corrects the problem, return the

detector to the factory for repair.

NOTE

It is highly recommended that a complete spare
be kept on hand for field replacement to ensure
continuous protection.
