System Test - Continued
How to: Test your communicator
The Communicator is located within your security system. The communicator, (if enabled),is
the device that communicates with a central station who then analyse all the incoming alarm
signals and who engage the appropriate responses / services dependant on the type of alarm
signals received.
Alternatively the communicator can be enabled to call an alternate phone number, like a
mobile phone, this is sometimes called self-monitoring or domestic dialling.
When testing your communicator, no sirens will sound and a test message will be sent to the
central station for confirmation of the test. If self monitored the person answering the number
programmed in your security system will hear a siren sound when they answer the phone.
Step
Contact the central station and any person whose phone numbers are programmed in the
system prior to activating this the communicator test.

How to: Test your battery
Step
The backup battery is housed within your security system and provides power when mains
power has been interrupted. Prolonged operation on the backup battery will result in total
system failure so the condition of the battery is critical to sustain the power required for the
longest period of time. It is recommended to change your battery at periodical intervals,
please refer to your service provider for further information. This feature is used to test the
condition of your back up battery.
