Tip: You can set whether you want to activate detectors in test mode with a single or a double click (Defining click behavior for the activation of detectors in test mode).

7.  In the Single Step mode, in the Network Editor, double-click a detector type.

With each click, you switch to the next requirement:

  • No actuation: no fill color
  • Single actuation: blue
  • Repeated actuation: turquoise
  • Continuous occupancy: pink

If you double-click on Continuous occupancy, the detector call switches back to No actuation.

Tip: Alternatively, right-click the detector and on the shortcut menu, click Edit Actuation. Then click the state of your choice.
