Re: Napco MA3000 - Dialer Test on both Lines?

["Doug L" <vssdoug@xxxxxxx>]

I don't know the panel, hence the use of the word " If ". I do know the code
and I know your suggestion is a violation, pure and simple, its also pure
bullshit on your part that you have used this technique on Commercial Fire
and  had an inspector sign off on it, after all since you know the panel so
well and state that it does support the requirement, why would you need to
bodge it in this manner, so stop bullshitting and trying to make yourself
look important.

 I also know that if you knew the panel as well as you would have everyone
believe, then you would have told Alan the correct way to generate the
required test on the secondary communication channel, the fact that you
suggested some Heath Robinson affair on a commercial fire panel is a clear
indication that you don't know the panel either, no doubt after making your
ludicrous suggestion you have since boned up on the panel.

Show me the listing that specifies that the purpose of the relay outputs is
to interrupt the primary communication channel in order to generate a
transmission on the secondary channel.

On another subject, I hope the chemo goes well for you.
