Testing Outputs and Sirens

All outputs (onboard and SnapCard) should be tested to verify configuration programming.

!Be sure to contact the central monitoring station before activating outputs that trigger from an alarm condition.

Caution

￿To test outputs:

1.Contact the central monitoring station to inform them you are testing the system.

2.Verify that all wiring at the panel and output devices is correct.

3.Activate the appropriate device to trigger each output as programmed.

4.Verify that each output responds according to the programmed configuration number. For outputs that trigger sirens, verify that the correct alarm sounds are produced from these sirens. Table 12 describes the system alarm sounds you should hear for each alarm event.

5.Contact the central monitoring station when you are finished testing.

Testing Light Control

Test all lights plugged into X10 Lamp Modules to verify house code and light number settings.

￿To test light control:

1.Press 0 + 0 repeatedly to turn all lights on and off together.

2.Press 0 + 1 repeatedly to turn light 1 on and off.

3.Repeat step 2 for remaining lights (0 + 2 for light 2, 0 + 3 for light 3, etc.).

4.Arm the system to Away. All lights plugged into modules set to Unit 1 (or set as entry lights) should turn on and stay on for 5 minutes. All lights plugged into modules set to Unit 2 should blink three times to indicate the arming level. Remaining lights should not be affected.

5.Disarm the system. If Unit 1 (or entry) lights were on for an entry or alarm, they will turn off in 5 minutes. Unit 2 lights should blink once to indicate the system is off. Remaining lights should not be affected.

6.All lights should turn on and remain on during fire and auxiliary/medical alarms. All lights should flash during a police or intrusion alarm.

Testing the Energy Saver Module (ESM)

Test the Energy Saver Module to verify it overrides the thermostat.
