About Testing the System

Using the Test mode allows each protection point to be checked for proper operation. Testing should be conducted weekly to ensure proper operation.

•The keypad sounds a single beep about every 30 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the Test mode.

•Alarm messages are not sent to your Central Station while Test mode is on.

1.Disarm the system and close all protected windows, doors, etc. The READY indicator light should come on if all zones are intact (i.e., all protected windows, doors, etc. are closed.

2. + 5 TEST then [0] (walk)

(Master Code)

Alpha Displays:

∗∗∗∗DISARMED∗∗∗∗

READY TO ARM

1 = DIAL, 0 = WALK

The Dial test (option “1”) is intended for the installer and should not be used unless directed to do so by your Security System Representative.

3.Listen. The external sounder should sound for about 1 second then turn off. If the sounder does not sound, CALL FOR SERVICE. The “Test in Progress” display appears only on the keypad that started the test.

TEST IN PROGRESS

4.Fault zones. Open each protected door and window in turn and listen for three beeps from the keypad. Identification (zone number or zone description) of each faulted protection point should appear on the display. The display clears when the door or window is closed.

5.Walk in front of any interior motion detectors (if used) and listen for three beeps. The identification of the detector should appear on the display when it is activated. The display clears when no motion is detected. Note that if wireless motion detectors are used, there is a 3-minute delay between activations. This conserves battery life.

6.Test all smoke detectors, following the manufacturer's instructions. The identification of each detector should appear on the display when each is activated. If a problem is experienced with any protection point (no confirming sounds, no display), call for service immediately.

When all protection points have been checked and are intact (closed), there should be no zone identification numbers displayed on the keypad.

7. Exit test mode:
