Contact the monitoring centre and tell them that you are going to carry
out a test.

Activate the trigger you have installed.
You should hear the Guard Time tone (see Note).
4.
Wait until Homelink starts the comfort tone. This means that it is making
an emergency call.
5.
When Homelink has successfully completed the emergency call the
comfort tone stops, and you should hear the monitoring centre.
6.
Check that you can hear the monitoring centre throughout the area
covered by Homelink.
7.
Check that the monitoring centre can hear you. Test the whole of the
area covered by Homelink, using normal voice level.
8.
When you have completed the test, check that Homelink has ended the
call to the monitoring centre by picking up the handset and listening for
dial tone.
Note: If you operate the emergency button or a pendant then Homelink gives you the
guard tone, followed by the comfort tone as it makes its calls. If you activate
any other type of trigger (for example smoke alarm or personal attack) then
Homelink reports immediately and gives no guard or comfort tone.
