Notes:
•
While the sensor test is a valuable installation and service tool, it only tests sensor operation for the current conditions. Conduct a
sensor test after any change in environment, equipment, or programming.
•
Sensors should be tested one at a time to make sure they are sending strong signals to the panel.
•
After the sensor is tripped, the panel will beep. Each beep represents one RF packet. Count the number of beeps and refer to
Table 8 (see Minimum Packets Required).
To perform a sensor or key fob test:
1.
Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to contact the central monitoring station before starting this procedure.
2.
Place all sensors in their secured (non-alarm) state.
3.
From the Configuration & Programming screen, press TEST.
4.
From the Test screen, press SENSORS or KEYFOBS.
5.
Trip the sensor (see Table 8). The signal level for the last packet received is recorded under the sensor on the Sensors screen.
6.
Press CLOSE to exit.
If CLOSE is not pressed, the panel will beep after ten minutes of inactivity and the screen will automatically close five minutes after
the initial beep, for a total of 15 minutes of inactivity. Note that this test screen inactivity is different from the programmed inactivity
discussed on page 6 in the "System Programming and Configuration" section.
7.
If the central monitoring station was notified, inform them that this operation is complete.

Communication Testing
For communication testing, the panel may be configured for multiple destinations. Each destination should be tested.
Note: Complete panel programming before performing communication testing.
1.
Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to contact the central monitoring station before starting this procedure.
2.
From the Configuration & Programming screen, press TEST.
3.
From the Test screen, press PANEL COMMUNICATION.
4.
From the Panel Communication screen, press REPORTING.
5.
From the Destination screen, press CALL next to the destination you want to test communication.
6.
From the Test Call screen, press START to initiate a test call to the destination.
If the test is successful, Report Delivered will display next to Status.
7.
If the central monitoring station was notified, inform them that this operation is complete.
Verify Alarm Reporting
After performing sensor tests, check that the system is reporting alarms correctly to the central station.
1.
Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to contact the central monitoring station before starting this procedure.
2.
Arm the system.
3.
Test an emergency panic icon and trip at least one sensor of each type (fire, intrusion, etc.) to verify that the appropriate alarms
are working correctly. There could be a delay depending upon system configuration.
