General Operation
Installer Start-up
During the initial start-up, it is possible to plug in the battery without activating the sounder. This
means that the sounder can be installed and connected in one process, so that you don’t have to
go back to it again later when the supply voltage is applied.
Please note: this function is only available during the initial start-up, or if the sounder
has been completely isolated by disconnecting the power supply and removing the
battery.
Installer Mode
As soon as the supply voltage is applied, the device will test itself before switching to installer
mode. This installer mode lasts five minutes. During this time, the sounder will emit an acoustic
signal for three or 15 seconds (depending on which setting was selected), when it is configured.
The visual signalling may also be triggered. This function ensures an initial test of the sounder’s
connection without excessive noise nuisance. When this test phase has run, the sounder emits a
short sound signal.
Battery level indicator
The sounder’s battery is constantly monitored, to see if it is able to take over the electricity supply, if
the power supply is interrupted. During start-up, the battery status display may show an error for a
few minutes until the battery has been sufficiently charged.
Error output
This output indicates a battery error. When an error is detected, the output opens the contact (it is
an NC output). When self-test is started, this error output is also opened and remains open pending
if there is a fault. If there is no error, the contact closes again. The output also opens the circuit, if
the device identifies that a conductor for activation is interrupted (only if circuit monitoring [LK5] is
activated).
Test input
A positive signal from the alarm panel triggers the sounder to self test.
