Preventive maintenance schedule

Refer to the NFPA 72 section on Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance, the

Canadian Electrical Code Part I, CAN/ULC-S524, or CAN/ULC-S536 for more

information on required inspection and testing methods and frequencies for fire

alarm systems and devices. For detector sensitivity and functionality testing, refer

to the detector manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Fast ground check

Use Fast Ground Check to quickly check the system for ground faults. During

normal operation the system checks for ground faults every thirty seconds and

reports them by flashing the Ground Fault LED. When you are troubleshooting

ground faults on the system, you may not want to wait thirty seconds for the

ground fault to clear. If the ground fault was not fixed, you may not want the LED

to stay active. Use the Fast Ground Check to decrease the system ground fault

check time to every four seconds. This allows you to troubleshoot your ground

faults much quicker and determine if they were actually corrected.

Note:

Once you solve the ground faults in the system, turn off the Fast Ground

Check.

To turn on and off Fast Ground Check:

1. Press the menu button and choose Diagnostics.
2. Enter a level two password.
3. Choose Fast Ground Check.
4. Choose Start to turn on Fast Ground Check or

choose End to turn off Fast Ground Check.
