What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Test the watch alarm stages and the reset function at the class-required intervals and confirm alarms sound at the bridge and in the cabin areas. Check connections, power supply and inputs from the bridge reset devices.
Keep a spare reset button or motion sensor, an alarm sounder and a spare control unit of the installed type. Hold spare fuses and connection cables for the bridge alarm arrangement.
