Serial Printer
The PT-1 series printers are high-speed, nine-pin dot matrix type. They
use standard, continuous tractor feed computer paper. The PT-1 is used
to permanently record life safety system changes of state. All printed
entries contain the date, time, event type and a user-defined message
for each printed event. The printer is required in proprietary systems and
requires a backup UPS power source. In auxiliary, local, or remote station
systems, the printer is optional. Printer paper may be fed from the rear or
bottom of the printer.

Remote Diagnostic Utility
The Remote Diagnostic Utility (RDU) is a Windows
®
-based communications
program used to remotely access and download status and sensitivity infor-
mation from EST3 fire alarm systems. The RDU can accommodate over 1,000
individual sites in its database.
The RDU is ideal for multiple system owners and those responsible for systems
located over a large geographic area. In the event of Trouble, system status
can be quickly determined with a single phone call, before dispatching serv-
ice personnel.
The RDU computer communicates with the panel over telephone lines. At the
remote panel location, a modem is connected to one of the panel’s serial ports
and a conventional dial-up telephone line. Alternately, the RDU computer
can be directly connected to the panel when visiting the panel site.
System Status reports provide a detailed listing of the state of all devices at
the time the data was downloaded. This information becomes a valuable troubleshooting
aid and provides an insight into a panel’s condition, even before the panel door is opened.
Alarm, trouble, and disabled/test filters are available to customize the data appearing on a
status report.
Sensitivity reports are available for both Signature Series and GE Security analog smoke
detectors. Dirty and not clean filters are provided to customize sensi-
tivity reports for ease of readability.
After a system’s information has been downloaded a few times, the
trend analysis function can be used to identify the rates at which
individual detectors are becoming dirty. A trend analysis report can
be exported into spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel
®
, where
it can be easily converted into sensitivity versus time graphs.
All system reports can be viewed on the screen, sent to a printer, or
saved as a file for archive purposes.
