The correct operation of equipment connected to the Zone Outputs, Disablement Active,
Evacuate Active and Buzzer Active outputs should be verified in turn by initiating a fire condition
on each of the appropriate zones; disabling/enabling a zone; operating the Evacuate button on
the panel’s display.
