Item
Description
Complete/Comments
1
Check that the mounting surface for all detectors and/or
GMXP0 plates are free from all debris, paint, drill tem-
plates, etc.
2
Install all detectors and accessories in accordance with
the guidelines in the installation sheets.
3
Check all electrical connections for polarity and correct
terminal designations.
4
Check all end of line resistors for values and connection.
5
Perform a visual inspection of the vault for any irregulari-
ties in the construction that may cause the impairment of
the acoustic signals.
6
Ensure that all of the component parts are compatible
and that performance and approvals are not compro-
mised.
7
Record the ambient noise levels for the protected space
to enable the detector settings to filter out this noise.
8
Ensure that the environmental conditions for all compo-
nents parts of the system are within the recommended
parameters.

7.2 Commissioning & test options
Table 7-2 details the test method options and the resulting alarm type. Note that the alarm type is only
visible in SensTool.
Never strike the detector directly as this may cause irreparable damage to the detector.
Test method
Alarm Type
Apply power to the detectors and leave for at least 30 seconds to al-
low the detectors to stabilise.
N/A
If the detector has an internal test transmitter GMXS1 fitted, apply
the required trigger signal and ensure that the detector activates.
Integration
If the system has the external test transmitter GMXS5 installed, ap-
ply the required trigger signal and ensure that all detectors within the
signal radius activate.
Integration
Remove the lid of the detector and scratch the detector plate with a
screw driver. After about 30 seconds the detector signals an alarm
condition. The GM730, GM760 & GM775 confirm an alarm by open-
ing the alarm contact and illuminating the internal LED.
The GM710 will only open alarm contacts.
Integration
Using a small metal plate to protect the surface, repeatedly hit the
metal plate, leaving 2 second intervals, with a small hammer. After
about 6 blows, the detector signals an alarm condition.
