Fire test plan
Use this suggested test plan for a four week duration to prepare test fires and to modify the deployment of devices including changing Sensor spacing, location and fire materials.
Avoid contact with Sensors after deployment
AFTER SENSORS HAVE BEEN DEPLOYED AND CALIBRATED, DO NOT INTERACT WITH THE SENSORS AS THIS WILL CAUSE ERRORS WITH SENSOR VALUES AND COULD ALSO RESET THE SENSOR CALIBRATION.
The following shows a suggested test plan for a four-week duration.
