SD--TRK4 Remote Alarm Test Procedure

1. Turn the key switch to the RESET/TEST position for

seven seconds.

2. Verify that the test/reset station’s Alarm LED turns

on.

Remote Test/Reset Station Dirty Sensor Test
The test/reset station dirty sensor test checks the test/reset

station’s ability to initiate a sensor dirty test and indicate

the results. It must be wired to the controller as shown in

Fig. 24 and configured to operate the controller’s

supervision relay. For more information, see “Changing

sensor dirty test operation.”
