Manual Tests--What You Need to Test
As an added safeguard, there are system tests you should do
yourself on a regular basis. The Control Panel cover in the
lower left corner reminds you to
TEST WEEKLY .
Sensors
You can test sensors one at a time to make sure they are
sending strong signals to the Control Panel (see Testing Sen-
sors paragraph).
Communication
You can also test the communication between your system
and the Central Monitoring Station (see Testing Communica-
tion paragraph).
Testing Sensors
You should test the security system at least once each week.
To perform the sensor test:
1. Open the Control Panel Cover.
2. Enter the master access code.
3. Press the Test button once, the Control Panel will say
Sensor Test .
4. Press the DONE button.
The panel will voice prompt you with a list of your programmed
sensors that you need to test. The panel will start with sensor
1 and say
Test sensor 1, sensor name.
When you trip a sensor and it communicates successfully it
will be removed from the list. You may trip the sensors in any
order. The sensor test has a 4 minute time out that resets with
each sensor trip.
After all sensors have been successfully tested, the Control
Panel will say
Sensor test complete, press DONE . Press
DONE . The Control Panel will say Sensor test ok .
If any of the sensors did not test successfully and you want to
terminate the test,
press DONE . The Control Panel will say
Sensor test canceled or failure . If a sensor test fails, call your
security dealer.
Use the following table to trip sensors.
Testing Communication
Test communication with your central monitoring station and
the pager at least once per week to make sure you have the
proper telephone connection between your system and the
central monitoring station.
To perform a phone test:
1. Open the Control Panel cover.
2. Enter the master access code.
3. Press the Test button twice, the Control Panel will say
Phone Test .
4. Press the DONE button.
The Control Panel will say Phone test is on twice. If the test is
successful the Control Panel will say Phone test ok within 3
minutes. The Control Panel will say Phone test is on three
times if you have a pager. Your pager will display 101 101 if
the phone test to the pager was successful. If the test is un-
successful, the
SYSTEM STATUS button will light and the
Control Panel will say Phone communication failure within 10
minutes. If a phone test fails, call your security system dealer.
NOTE: If your system is not connected to a central moni-
toring station, and you don’t use a pager, you won’t be
able to perform the phone test.
