Detectors and alarm confirmation in 1 unit

[creative]

Just received info on the new Pyronix TMD - 1st question

is how would you walk test each detector as they have interlaced "zones"

maybe I've missed something - any thoughts - I believe its going to be launched

in August

Each part of the detector is wired to a seperate zone in the panel (i.e. one detector uses two panel zones?)

I have seen one, and if it is he same as the one i have seen are you sure you are going to use them, what a ugly thing.

Walktest as DNS said they use two zones on a panel so walktest each zone.

I uderstand the three outputs it gives - but because of the close interlacing of the pir's how would you be able to "knock" the single pir without activating the other pir/microwave as they are very close ie in the same housing and having the same field of veiw - has anybody had a sample to try

The detector Im talking about is the new Pyronix TMD-15 a dual -tek and passive in one housing - has anybody tested it - and can you walk test each detector seperatley - as required by En50131 ?

You can test anything seperatley if connected to seperate circuits.

Also why, as required by EN50131 when you are supposed to test everything since BS 4737 :1986 for testing systems most of the new EN regs refer back to present standards as PD6662 points out.
