Follow these steps to test panic pendants:
1. Begin testing when your system is in the ready state and the keypad
Ready light is on.

your Installation Manual for information on global and partition keypads.

keypad will turn OFF for 30 seconds or until the [#] key is pressed. On
the PC5010, PC5015 v2.x or higher, PC5008, PC1565 and PC585: If the
