Industrial Control Services
To program the reset function for a fire detector, you should 
program the reset bit to turn on when initiated and remain on 
for the time required by the fire detector to reset. Consult the 
specifications on your sensors for the required reset time. 
Maintenance
No periodic maintenance or calibration is required for the 
digital input modules. There are no user replaceable parts 
inside these modules. 
Safety Considerations
The fire detector input modules are TÜV certified for Risk 
Class 5 safety critical inputs. Safety critical configurations 
include dual and triple redundant input modules (and sensors 
if required) and associated application voting methods. 
In safety critical input applications using a single sensor, it is 
important that the sensor failure modes be predictable and 
well understood, so there is little probability of a failed sensor 
not responding to a critical process condition. In such a 
configuration, it is important that the sensor be tested 
regularly, either by dynamic process conditions that are 
verified in the Regent, or by manual intervention testing. 
Redundant sensors can be used with redundant input 
modules to eliminate any single points of failure and extend 
fault tolerance to include the sensors. 
For additional safety considerations, please refer to the Safety 
Considerations section of the Regent User’s Guide.
