Testing Sensors/Zones

We recommend that you test sensors/zones after all pro-
gramming is completed and whenever a sensor/zone-related 
problem occurs.

If the system does not respond as described in Sensor Test 
(on page 18), see “Appendix A: Troubleshooting on 
page 19.” 

Note

While the sensor test is a valuable installation and service 
tool, it only tests sensor operation for the current condi-
tions. You should perform a sensor test after any change in 
environment, equipment, or programming.

To test sensors:

1.

Go into sensor test; trip sensor.

2.

Count the number of beeps that the panel emits.

Refer to Table 7 for the preferred number of beeps required.

If a Wireless Sensor Does Not Test

When possible, locate wireless sensors within 100 feet of 
the panel. While a transmitter may have a range of 500 feet 
or more out in the open, the environment at the installation 
site can have a significant effect on transmitter range. Refer 
to “Appendix A: Troubleshooting” (on page 19) to resolve 
the problem.

For wireless sensors that don’t respond, use an ITI RF 
Sniffer (60-401) test tool to verify that the sensor is trans-
mitting. Constant beeps from the RF Sniffer indicate a run-
away (faulty) sensor. Remove the sensor’s battery and 
replace the sensor.

Testing Phone Communication

Perform a phone test to check the phone communication 
between the panel and the central monitoring station, see 
Phone Test  (Reports) on page 14.

Testing Central Station Communication

After performing sensor and phone tests, check that the sys-
tem is reporting alarms successfully to the central station.

To test communication with the central station:

1.

To avoid the dispatch of emergency personnel, call the 
central station and tell the operator that you will be 
testing the system!

2.

Arm the system.

Police Panic

Press and hold 
both buttons 
until panel 
indicates alarm.

Emergency Panic

Press and hold 
both buttons 
until panel 
indicates 

alarm.

Fire Panic

Press and hold 
both buttons 
until panel 
indicates alarm.
