You can test the function of all wireless
sensors deployed throughout the protected
area, to collect information about the
received signal strength from each
transmitter and to review accumulated data
after the test.
The system should be tested at least once a
week and after an alarm. The periodic test
can be conducted locally or from a remote
location (with the assistance from a non-
technical person in the house).
The partitioning feature, when enabled,
divides your alarm system into distinct areas
each of which operates as an individual
alarm system. Partitioning can be used in
installations where shared security systems
are more practical, such as a home office or
warehouse building.
The default parameters with which a new
device is enrolled into the system can be set
before you enroll devices. This default
template saves time on device configuration.
All PowerG smoke detectors are able to
function as sirens, alerting on any of 4 types of
alarm in the system: fire, gas, burglary and
flood.
The PowerMaster 360 system can be
programmed to send notifications of alarm
and other events to 4 SMS cellular phone
numbers and to report these events to the
Monitoring Station by SMS or IP
communication.
With PowerG devices, there is no need to
consult the control panel when mounting a
wireless device, because PowerG devices
include a built-in link quality indicator.
Choosing the mounting location is a quick
and easy process.
To perform diagnostics and to obtain
signal strength indication: see section 4.8
Diagnostics.
To conduct a walk test locally: see
Chapter 5 Periodic Test.
To conduct a walk test from remote
location: refer to the Remote Programmer
PC software User's Guide, Chapter 6 Data
Details Tables.
