Before connecting and powering up the panel please The first quick test that should be done on all the loops is
ensure you read and understand the manual. to check the continuity of the loops using a multimeter.
The following is a summary of the minimum steps to start The resistance should be measured start positive to end

should measure 50k ohms.

Check the loops with a multimeter Ensure the screen is continuous around the loop;
this reading should be approx 10 ohms.

This function has two purposes, the first is to check that
when a database has been downloaded the transmitted
data matches the device data on the loop and then it
highlights any anomalies as device unknown or device
type mismatches.
The second is to pinpoint any o/c or s/c faults on the loop.
The panel achieves this by electronically disconnecting the
return legs and interrogates the devices on the loop. If
there is a break the panel will go to fault stating the first
device it cannot see beyond the break. This same function
also pinpoints short circuits in the same way, creating a
fault beyond the point where an isolator has opened.

antimony and arsenic, they are safe if handled according
to the accompanying guide. The battery cells must not
be dismantled as this involves several hazards, which are
best handled under controlled conditions, using special-

batteries; they should be treated as disposable when they
have outlived their use.
Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with current
waste disposal and pollution legislation and in particular;
The Environment Protection Act 1990, Special Waste
Regulation 1996. It is recommended that the following
authorities are contacted before any attempt is made to
dispose of batteries; Environment Agency Local office,
Local Authority Environmental Health or Waste Handling
