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.
