10.2Battery Tests
If a power failure occurs, your control panel has a backup battery that continues to power the control panel for many hours. The control panel automatically recharges the battery when power is restored.
In addition to the automatic battery test performed every 2 minutes, you can also test the battery manually. This test also uses the battery to manually activate all the system sounders for 2 seconds ([PIN][#][8][5] only). If the battery voltage is low, a battery fault occurs (refer to Section 9.0 Error Displays on page 25).
If you perform this test from a Master keypad, the keypad must be in Single Partition Mode. System Tests are not available from RF (wireless) keypads.

10.3Communicator Test
This test is available only if your system sends alarms and system information to a monitoring service, and is programmed by the installing company to permit communicator tests. You can perform this test from a Master Keypad. The account code for Area #1 is used. System tests are not available from RF (wireless) keypads.
A long beep initially sounds to acknowledge the start of the test. If the test is successful, the sounder again sounds one long beep. If the test fails, the keypad sounder turns ON continuously. To silence the sounder, enter your [PIN] and press the [#] key or the [*] key.
