Response to Fault Indication

If a failure is found, the detector indicates by:

Fault relay:

Opens in wiring option 1, 2, and 4

Closes in wiring option 3 and 5

0-20mA: indicates Fault (0mA or 2mA) in wiring option 1, 2, 3

LED – Yellow flashes (4 Hz)

Correcting the Fault

The fault indications remain until the detector’s power is removed. The fault
indications return if the fault is still found when power is restored.

1.6.2 Built-In-Test (BIT)

The detector’s Built-In-Test (BIT) also checks the following:

Electronics circuitry

Sensors

Window cleanliness

The detector can be set to perform the BIT automatically.

1.6.2.1 How the BIT Operates

The detector's status remains unchanged if the result of a BIT is the
same as the current status (NORMAL or BIT Fault)

the detectors’ status is changed (from Normal to BIT Fault or vice versa)
if the BIT differs from the current status

Note: In ‘BIT Fault’ status the detector can continue to detect a fire.
