Maintenance General 11 Maintenance 11.1 General Regular maintenance of the system is necessary to ensure the reliable operation. The panel has a reminder function that can inform you of imminent maintenance. When the service reminder is displayed, regular maintenance by a service technician is required.
Maintenance Function test 11.3 Function test The following schedule is recommended for the function test. However, local regulations have higher priorities. Function Activity Interval (years) ↑ Detector line Activate all automatic detectors and all manual call points. Activate a detector or manual call point per line Check all detectors and manual call points for dirt and check that usage is in accordance with regulations.
Maintenance Device test 11.4 Device test Smoke detector 1. Enable test mode for the line. 2. Place detector tester RE6 on detector head. 3. Release test gas. 4. Remove detector tester. 5. Confirm the alarm was triggered. Alarm indicator is flashing. 6.
Maintenance Calibrating lines 11.5 Calibrating lines WARNING Impermissible line configuration An impermissible line configuration can cause the alarm devices connected to this line to be supplied with insufficient power in the event of a fire. This prevents the alarm from sounding in the corresponding parts of a building. This can cause serious injuries or death.

Appendix A: Alarm Verification Concept (AVC) 15 Appendix A: Alarm Verification Concept (AVC) The ↑ 'Alarm Verification Concept' serves the purpose of delayed alarm transmission and takes into account the interaction of the operating personnel in the alarming sequence. Operating personnel are able to examine the indicated fire location in the event of a fire alarm.
Page 130
Appendix A: Alarm Verification Concept (AVC) Alarm verification proceeds as follows: ● An alarm event activates local alarming and starts the time T1 for attendance check. ● Operating personnel acknowledges alarm event on the panel prior to the expiry of T1. Acknowledging normally silences local alarming. If there is no acknowledgement, global alarming is activated after T1 expires.
Appendix B: Delayed Alarm Reset (DAR) 16 Appendix B: Delayed Alarm Reset (DAR) NOTICE The DAR function doesn't fulfill EN54-2. Check whether it is allowed in the country code of practices before using this function. Field application The DAR function can be used in apartment blocks for tenant/owner reaction on a false or minor incident by pressing a self-reset button and eliminating the root cause (e.g., ventilating the space) in the flat without triggering the global alarm in the first place and bothering neighbors especially at night.

If another alarm verification ● [Y]: The button is pressed attempt proceeds during 'Manned operation' before Ta expires.
Page 133
Appendix B: Delayed Alarm Reset (DAR) If no action is taken before the expiry of 'Time for delay alarm (Second)' and the alarm event still exists during the confirmation time, AVC procedure is involved. See Appendix A: Alarm Verification Concept (AVC) [➙ 129]. Fire incident check (Ta) In case of a fire incident, alarm devices in the zone are activated.
Appendix C: Door holder function 17 Appendix C: Door holder function Use the 'Door holder' function to control fire door releasers or fire electromagnetic door holders via output channels of FDCIO221, FDCIO222, FDCIO224 and FDCIO361. Once door releasers or door holders are connected to the output channels above via physical wiring and logic controls are configured in FC360 Panel Configurator, conditions like fire alarms can trigger the release of fire door releasers or door holders and then fire doors are activated in case of emergencies.
