1. With the system disarmed, check that all zones are intact. If a NOT READY message displays,
press the [6] key to display the faulted zone(s). Restore faulted zone(s) if necessary.
2. Enter the [Security Code] + [5] TEST. The following will occur:
•
A test report will be transmitted (if programmed) to the Central Station immediately. (If the
backup battery is discharged or missing, a LOW BATTERY report will be transmitted with a
TEST report.)
3. Fault and restore each zone.
• The keypad will emit 3 beeps each time a contact is faulted.
• The keypad will beep once per minute as a reminder that the system is in the Test Mode.
4. Exit this mode by entering the [Security Code] + [1] OFF.
Armed System Test
Alarm messages will be sent to the Central Station during the following tests. Notify the Central
Station in advance that tests will be in progress.
1. Arm the system and fault one or more zones.
2. After 15 seconds (if optional dialer delay is selected), silence alarm sounder(s) by entering the
[Security Code] + [1] OFF. Check Entry/Exit delay zones.
3. Check the keypad-panic alarms that are in the system by pressing the Panic key (key pairs on
some keypads).

entering the [Security Code] and pressing OFF.
• If the system has been programmed for silent emergency, there will be no audible alarms or
displays, but a report will be sent to the central station.
4. Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.
Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the master and frequent testing by the user
are vital to continuous satisfactory operation of any alarm system.
The master should assume the responsibility of developing and offering a regular maintenance program
to the user as well as acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the alarm system
and its component parts. Recommendations must be included for a specific program of frequent testing
(at least weekly) to insure the system's proper operation at all times.
