8.4.10 Check Detector Sensitivity Through Point Status
The IntelliKnight 5820 constantly monitors smoke detectors to ensure that sensitivity levels
are in compliance with NFPA 72.
If sensitivity for a detector is not in compliance, the panel goes into trouble, generating a CAL
TRBLE condition. A detector enters a CAL MAINT state to indicate that it is approaching an
out of compliance condition (but is currently still in compliance).
When a CAL TRBLE condition occurs, the central station receives a detector trouble report
(“373” + Zone # for Contact ID format; “FT” + Zone # in SIA format).
To check sensitivity for an individual detector, follow the steps below. Section 8.4.17 provides
instructions for printing the status of all detectors in the system.
1. From the User or Installer Menu, press for Point Functions.
2. Press for Point Status.
3. Select the module where the point you want to check is located.
4. Enter the number of the point you want to check and press .
5. A screen similar to those shown in Figure 8-4 will display.

If a printer is attached to the system (via a Module 5824 Serial/Parallel Interface), you can
print detector status (see Section 8.4.17).
