Multi-output combined detectors
General
The following tests are additional to EN 50131-2 and apply to all multi-output combined detectors intended to meet the recommendations of this specification:
Whilst performing the coverage test
If the output response is selectable between single or multiple output, check that this is set to the correct mode.
verify that the coverage patterns are non-overlapping, if the sensors are of the same technology;
verify that the sensor responses are processed independently and communicated separately to the CIE.
Documentation
The manufacturer’s documentation should be checked for compliance with A.3.3.
Audible alarm verification equipment
General
The following tests apply to all audible alarm verification equipment intended to meet the recommendations of this specification:
Audio alarm Verification control equipment
The manufacturer of audio alarm verification control equipment should provide sufficient information and equipment to verify compliance with A.5.1.1, with specific emphasis on
the recommendations for storage and transmission of audio information of 9.1.2,
the correct correspondence between ALD and the intrusion detector triggered (See 9.1.2),
correct interfacing with l&HAS CIE to control output(s) to warning device(s) (See 9.1.3).
The manufacturer of audio listening devices or audio monitoring devices should provide sufficient information to verify compliance with 5.1.2 or 5.1.3 respectively.
The tamper protection and detection recommendations (A.5.2) should be tested in accordance with the product standard for the equivalent component (as per Table A.1).
The environmental recommendations of A.5.3 should be tested in accordance with the product standard for the equivalent component (as per Table A.1).
The manufacturer’s documentation should be checked for compliance with A.5.4.
Visual alarm verification equipment
Visual alarm verification control equipment
The following tests apply to all visual alarm verification control equipment intended to meet the recommendations of this specification:
The manufacturer should provide sufficient information and equipment to verify compliance with A.6.1 with specific emphasis on:
the recommendations for storage and transmission of visual information of 10.1.2;
the correct correspondence between imaging device and the intrusion detector triggered (A.6.1).
Other visual alarm verification equipment
Visual surveillance (or CCTV) equipment to be used in visual alarm verification systems should be tested to ensure compliance with the standard relevant to the equipment, or evidence presented of prior compliance testing.
The tamper protection and detection recommendations (A.6.3) should be tested in accordance with the product standard for the equivalent component (as per table A.2).
The environmental recommendations of A.6.4 should be tested in accordance with the product standard for the equivalent component (as per Table A.2).
The manufacturer’s documentation should be checked for compliance with A.6.5.Bibliography
