Testing Central Station Communication

After performing zone and phone tests, check that the sys-
tem is reporting alarms successfully to the central station
and pager(s).

outputs/zones that trigger an alarm condition.
To test communication with the central station:
1. Call the central station and tell the operator that you will
be testing the system.
2. Arm the system.
3. Test each touchpad, wireless panic button, and trip all of
the sensors. Verify that the appropriate system indica-
tions and alarms are working correctly.
4. Make sure that you test all programmed central station
phone numbers, and all partitions/areas.
5. When you finish testing the system, call the central sta-
tion to verify that all of the correct alarms were
received. Check pager displays to verify that reports
were received.

help compensate for lighting conditions in the touchpad
location. The contrast adjustment lightens or darkens the

takes the touchpad off-line when adjusting the contrast.
