Recommendations for detector test
Perform the function test periodically. The interval of this test is determined by the service engineer.
Switch only the fire detectors of one SECTION at a time to «Detector test», never the entire building.
For manual call points the function test needs to be performed only based on a spot-check.
Test automatic fire detectors and manual call points of the same room always separately.
Do not set them to «Detector test» simultaneously.
After the test work has been completed immediately cancel the mode «Detector test».
Testing of automatic AlgoRex

detectors
1. Set the SECTION (or zone) to «Detector test»
mode.
2. Place the detector tester on the detector.
Observe the marking!
Ü For smoke detectors and multisensor smoke
detectors the detector exchanger and tester
DZ1193 is needed:
Ü For heat detectors the detector tester RE6T is
required:
The temperature rise is simulated with a hot-air
blower
3. Wait until the response indicator on the detector
flashes.
4. Remove the detector tester.
Ü The function test is completed. Go to next detec-
tor
Note
Smoke detectors, multisensor smoke detectors and heat detectors have different housings (see illustration).
Testing of manual call points
Manual call points DM1101, DM1151 (type KAC)
1. Set the manual call point ZONE to «Detector test»
mode.
2. Insert the test key into the opening
 «Test alarm» is simulated.
3. Wait until the response indicator of the manual call
point flashes.
4. Remove the test key.
