Fire Alarm Device Behavior Test

Objective

Verify the controller's operation for fire alarm devices or equipment with similar functionality.

Test Steps

  1. Generate an alarm on the device
  2. Restore the alarm's normal state from the Netsocs interface
  3. Execute the 'Reset' command on the device to confirm the alarm

Expected Results

  • The sensor state (representing the alarm area) changes to "alarm"
  • The object property should change to an alarm-related icon
  • After confirmation, states return to "normal"
  • These events are logged in the event log
  • The device must create a log entry with the following format:
Fire alarm on 'DEVICE'
Command: 'RESET' to 'DEVICE' by 'PERSON_ID'
Fire alarm recovered on 'DEVICE'

Important Notes

  • The alarm can be ended from the device panel
  • In Netsocs, alarm events are always logged for the device closest to the actual origin (normally the sensor)
  • If the protocol only provides information at area level (not by the sensor object representing the zone or alarm area), the test can be passed with an explanatory note

Technical Considerations

  • States must update in real time throughout the entire alarm cycle
  • The event sequence must maintain temporal consistency
  • The system must properly handle cases where multiple alarms are activated simultaneously
