Is this Scott from Stevenage by any chance !
Q1. I have 3 smoke detectors in my property, what is the easiest way to detect which zone they are assigned to?
A. Place the system in test mode and set each zone off individually. The sensor may have a test button or you can purchase cans of smoke (from a trade security/fire supplier).
Q2. Which zone type should I use, what is the difference between FireNC and FireNO?
A. Comfort detects an open loop (NO) or a closed loop (NC)- in the case of a fire alarm it is probably best to program as NC then if you get a break in the cable the alarm will sound. Depending on the type of smoke head it may be advisable to wire EOL (end of line resistors).
Q3. How would I go about performing a test to ensure the fire alarms are working correctly?
A. Let me know what smoke heads you have - as above they either have a \'test\' button or you may have to use a can of smoke.
Q4. Can I have the system call me should I be away from home and the fire alarm goes off?
A. Yes of course = if you go to security type settings / alarm types you will see no 12 FIRE will be set up (by default) to dial out to a number of telephone numbers
