4.4 Detector States
The detector can be in one of the following states:
Normal: The detector is functioning.
BIT: The detector performs a BIT.
IR Detection: IR sensor is in Detection level.
UV Detection: UV sensor is in detection level.
Warning: The detector detects a fire and changes into its warning-pre-
alarm state.
Alarm: The detector detects a fire and changes into fire alarm state.
Latched Alarm: The alarm outputs are latched after Alarm state due to the
detection of a fire even when the fire has already been
extinguished.
BIT Fault: A fault is detected during BIT sequence. The detector will
continue to detect fire if the alarm conditions occur.
Fault: A fault is detected when the power supply is too low or during a
software fault.
In each state the detector will activate different outputs as specified in Table 6.
