B. Integrator’s Tests and Inspections:

1. LAN Cable Procedures: Inspect for physical damage and test each conductor signal path for continuity and shorts. Test for faulty connectors, splices, and terminations. Test according to TIA/EIA 568-C. Link performance for UTP cables must comply with minimum criteria in TIA/EIA 568-C.

2. Test each component of the access control system. Tests shall include performance verification function testing.

3. System components with battery backup shall be operated on battery power for a period of not less than 10 percent of the calculated battery operating time. Provide special equipment and software if testing requires special or dedicated equipment.

C. Acceptance Test: After installation and Integrator’s performance testing has been completed schedule with the Owner to demonstrate that each access control device is functional and in compliance with requirements.

D. Devices and circuits will be considered defective if they do not pass tests and inspections.

E. Prepare test and inspection reports.

3.10 STARTUP SERVICE

B. Prepare Operations and Maintenance manuals in PDF and hardcopy format and submit to the Owner for review and approval/acceptance.

C. Prepare warrantee certificates and submit to the Owner. Warrantee registrations shall be in the name of the Owner.

3.15 ADJUSTING

A. Occupancy Adjustments: When requested within 12 months of date of Substantial Completion, provide one (1) on-site visit to assistance in adjusting system to suit actual occupied conditions.

Tasks shall include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Consult Owner's personnel for any issues with the access control system

2. Check proper operation of each access controlled door.
