6. Weekly Maintenance
Periodic Test
The components of your security system are designed to be maintenance-free as much as possible.
Nevertheless, it is mandatory to perform a "walk-test" at least once a week and after an alarm event to verify that
all system detectors function properly. Proceed as described in this section and if there is any problem, notify
your installer at once.
The periodic test is an indispensable operation by which you verify that all sirens/devices function properly,
without disturbing the neighbors with loud sirens. The test must be performed at least once a week, and
should include all sirens/devices in all zones.
Before performing the periodic test, all the sirens/devices must be in normal state. Normal state is achieved
when no motion is made for at least 2 minutes.
Note: During the test period, 24-hour zones will not cause an alarm if violated, but a fire zone will function
normally.
Carefully read the section titled "Additional Information" according to the indicated references
at end of this section.
