I'v never done "service" as a job role nor does our company hold any intruder maintenance contracts... Can someone confirm the steps to what's required as a bare minimum when doing a PPM.

 

Im thinking...

 

Walk test every device

Sample test some tampers depending on the size of install

Sample test resistance on devices again depending on the size of install 

Battery calcs (batt volt, current in alarm, current in standby, batt charging volt)

all signals to ARC inc comms fail both paths?

Set/unset where possible 

Bell test, test bell tamp, remove power 

Check no rearms, entry timers, exit timers, bell duration, reset levels

Compare as fitted install to specification

Fill out maintenance log...

 

I'm unsure so add, correct or remove anything to help...

Sample test some tampers depending on the size of install - will cause more problems than it solves.

all signals to ARC inc comms fail both paths? - don't touch that Dualcom Ariel it will eventually break!

Set/unset where possible 

Bell test, test bell tamp, remove power  - test bell tamp will cause more problems than it solves.  in a perfect world it should be tested though
