Armed Burglary System Test - Honeywell VISTA-128BPT Installation And Setup Manual

Armed Burglary System Test

Alarm messages are sent to the central station during the armed system tests. Notify the central station
that a test will be in progress.
A display of "COMM. FAILURE" indicates a failure to communicate (no kissoff by the receiver at the
central station after the maximum number of transmission attempts is tried). If this occurs, verify that
the phone line is connected, the correct report format is programmed, etc.
1. Notify the central station that a test of the system is being performed.
2. Arm the system.
3. Fault one or more zones.
4. Silence alarm sounder(s) each time by entering the code and pressing OFF.
NOTE: The system must be rearmed after each code + off sequence.
5. Check that entry/exit delay zones provide the assigned delay times.
6. Check the keypad-initiated alarms, if programmed, by pressing the panic key pairs (∗ and #, 1 and∗,
and/or 3 and #).
The word ALARM and a descriptor "999" are displayed for ∗ and #. If [1] and [∗] are pressed, "995" is
displayed; if [3] and [#] are pressed, "996" is displayed.
7. If the system has been programmed for audible emergency, the keypad emits a loud, steady alarm
sound. Silence the alarm by entering the security code and pressing OFF. If the system has been
programmed for silent panic, there are no audible alarms or displays. A report is sent to the central
station, however.
8. Notify the central station that all tests are finished, and verify results with them.
