Test your system before an emergency occurs.
Do not neglect to review programmed information and verify all elements of your system thoroughly before
relying on the dialer to deliver the necessary information to the desired parties accurately and completely.
The test mode tests the stored information, not the full functionality of the dialer. To test the full functionality of
the dialer, the unit must be tested in the operate mode. In the test mode, the dialer will not make more than one
attempt per number dialed or play the OGM more than once.
STEP 1
Press the “M” Mode key until the LCD reads:
TEST: T-LINE
1(YES) 2(NO)
STEP 2
Press “1” to display the T-Line configuration. The data will scroll through all selections.
Press “2” to scroll to the next section.
STEP 3
The LCD will read:
TEST: INPUT
1(YES) 2(NO)
STEP 4
Press “1” to test input. Verify data accuracy as the LCD scrolls through by comparing the information
displayed with that specified on your Program Planner. Listen to your recorded message to ensure that the
correct OGM (if programmed) is delivered.
Press “2” to scroll to the next section.
STEP 5
To test the operation of your entire system, set Mode to OPERATE and proceed as explained in the next
section: Operating Your System.
NOTE:
IN ORDER TO TEST IN THE OPERATE MODE, AT LEAST, 1 PHONE NUMBER AND OGM OR
1 PAGER NUMBER MUST BE PROGRAMMED. IF PROGRAMMING IS NOT COMPLETE, THE DIALER
WILL DISPLAY:
PROGRAMMING IS
NOT COMPLETE!
This message will be displayed for 2 seconds then the dialer will switch to the Program mode.
Test your system on a regular basis, at least once a week.
Make sure you notify the receiving party of your intent to call them, and tell them it is just a
test.
Note: To fully test the input, the dialer must be connected to a telephone line. If the dialer
does not detect a dial tone, it will not continue testing the programmed numbers and will
display:
NO DIAL TONE!
Connect the dialer to a telephone line and press the “M” key until the TEST: T-LINE prompt
appears. Continue testing the input by selecting “2” in Step 1 and skip to Step 3.
In the Test mode, a beep will be heard every 30 seconds. This is to indicate that the dialer is not
in the Off or Operate mode.
