1.6.2.3 Manual BIT
The BIT is manually initiated by momentarily connecting Terminal 3 with
Terminal 2 (or a switch across these terminals in the safe area).
If the BIT is unsuccessful, all outputs will function as described for
Automatic BIT, but the BIT is now automatically executed every 1 minute.
This continues until a successful BIT occurs, when the detector will resume
normal operation.
The results of a successful and unsuccessful Manual BIT are listed in
Table 11 and Table 12.
