Customer-Provided Alarming Device Test (#115)
The Customer-Provided Alarming Device (CPAD) Test closes the relay that activates the CPAD
for one minute. If more than one minute is necessary to verify CPAD activation, use the repeat
option for the test customer-alarm location command to close the relay for up to 99
minutes. For example, entering test customer-alarm location r 5 closes the relay for
five minutes.
When the repeat option is used, the results for Test #115 come back immediately and, for each
test that passed, the CPAD is kept on for one minute. The CPAD does not turn off after the
PASS result and then turn back on. Instead, the CPAD is kept on continuously for the entire
time. If the CPAD is being activated and deactivated in a flickering fashion, there is a problem
with either the CPAD or a PN’s Maintenance circuit pack.
This test runs on CAB-CALM (Customer alarm) and MAINT (PN Maintenance Circuit Pack).
