SA-DACT testing
A dialer test is a test of the telephone line for each dialer account.
When a dialer is tested, a normal or abnormal test message
(depending on the state of the system) is sent to the selected
account. If the dialer is set up for dual line operation, a test message
is sent to both lines regardless of the success of the transmission for
either account.
Note:
Before conducting a test, configure the dialer’s accounts for
proper operation.
