Button & Lamp test
This test is used to check operation of Outstation lamps,
communication to and from the Master Station and cable
voltage drop.
Press 2 buttons until all lamps on the Master Station’s
front panel light (takes about 4 seconds), then release the
buttons.
To exit this test, press either of the 2 buttons or cycle the
mains power.
The Go and Standby lamps on all outstations flash
alternately. Outstation Standby colour changes between red
& yellow on every 2nd flash of the Standby lamp.
As all Outstations are active, this provides the maximum
voltage drop on the interconnecting cables. When the
number of Outstations placed on the end of a cable run
exceeds the number specified in the table on page 28, the
excessive voltage drop will cause the Outstations to
automatically dim their lamps to reduce power consumption
and hence reduce the voltage drop. The automatic dimming
of the Outstation lamps is an indicator that the limits of the
cable run are being approached.
The maximum voltage drop will be higher if Outstations are
configured to allow both Go and Standby lamps to be on at
the same time.
