Introduction

This chapter covers the commissioning procedures for the ReadySET detector.
Commissioning strategy initially depends upon the detector’s environment.
Commissioning should only be done by factory-trained technicians in accordance with
the same applicable standards listed in Chapter 3 “Installation and configuration” on
page 11.

Precommissioning preparation

Commissioning should be performed after all construction has been completed and
cleaned of any lingering post-construction dirt. If ambient monitoring conditions are
recorded before the installation is cleaned up, they may not accurately reflect normal
operating conditions.

Commissioning checklist

The following brief checklist allows quick setup of the detector. This procedure will be
adequate for most standard installations.

Caution:

Ensure all wiring connections are checked prior to powering up the detector.

Incorrect wiring of the detector will cause permanent damage to the detector.

1. Before powering up the detector, visually check all cabling to ensure correct

connection. If wire identification is not immediately clear (e.g., by use of different
colored wires or wire identification sleeves), an electrical check should be made.

2. Disconnect the detector from the fire control unit, if applicable.

3. Power up the detector and wait for the 15 minute FastLearn cycle to finish. The OK

LED will be steadily lit when complete.

4. The detector automatically performs a FastLearn cycle which takes approximately 15

minutes. The OK indicator on the front panel will begin to flash. When using
day/night switching, check that day start and night start settings reflect site
operations.
