How is the RSDS self-test initiated on the control panel?

The RSDS self-test is initiated by selecting the TEST button on the control panel. This method is specifically designed to start the diagnostic procedures needed to verify the system's operational status. When the TEST button is used, it triggers a series of checks and assessments to ensure that the various components of the RSDS are functioning properly. This not only provides immediate feedback on the system's health but also helps in identifying any potential issues that need attention.

Initiating the self-test in this way allows operators to efficiently and effectively monitor the performance of the equipment, ensuring safety and reliability during operation. The straightforward action of pressing the TEST button distinguishes this process from others that might involve power settings or system resets, focusing specifically on testing rather than turning the system on or off.
