Access: File / Print Alarm Reports / Inspection Labor List
The Inspection Labor List Report displays the amount of inspection time required by device, as well as the total amount of time required to complete an inspection that complies with NFPA 72. The report sums up the inspection hours needed for each component of the fire alarm system, as well as any pertinent Job and Contact Information for the inspection. The report is useful for future inspection service quotes for fire alarm system maintenance.
Generate report data as follows:
Define the fire alarm system components in the Parts Database or within the components' Settings/Default Properties. Please remember that a component's properties from the Parts Database can be overridden by accessing the component's Default Properties from the Settings Menu before running the report.
After accessing the File menu: Print
Alarm Report submenu: Inspection Labor List Report, a Define
Inspection Hours Report dialog appears. If desired, enter a title
for the report in the Title field.
To include job information in the header, make sure the Include job information option box is checked. (Job settings are maintained in the Job Settings dialog box.) If components with zero hours associated with their inspection should appear in the report, that option has to be selected. Click OK to preview the report, or click Cancel to exit without running the report.
