Test Procedure

After installation is completed, test the security system carefully, as follows:

1. With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact. If the keypad

displays a "NOT READY" message, press [ ] to display the faulted zone(s). Restore

faulted zone(s) if necessary, so that the "READY" message is displayed.

Fault and restore every sensor individually to ensure that it is being monitored by the

system.

2. Enter the Security code and press the TEST key. The external sounder will sound for 1

second.

The keypad should sound 3 beeps each time a contact is faulted. A Test report should be

transmitted (if programmed) to the central station immediately. If the backup battery is

discharged or missing, the sounder may not turn on and a Low-Battery report will be

transmitted with a Test report.

The keypad will beep once per minute as a reminder that the system is in the Test mode.

To turn off the test mode, enter Security code and press the OFF key.

NOTE: For

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.

3. Arm the system and fault one or more zones. After 15 seconds (if you selected optional

dialler delay), silence alarm sounder(s) by entering the Security code and then pressing

OFF.

Check the entry/exit delay zones.

4. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that you programmed in the system by pressing the

Panic key (key pairs on some keypads). If you programmed the system for audible

emergency, the keypad will emit a steady alarm sound, and will display "ALARM" and

the zone number. Silence the alarm by entering the Security code and then pressing

OFF.

If you programmed the system for silent emergency, there will be no audible alarms or

displays, but a report will be sent to the central station.

5. If you installed output relay units, test their programmed action.

6. Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.

7. To test the wireless part of the system and the RF receiver, perform the two tests

(Transmitter Sniffer mode and Go/No Go Test mode) that follow:

a. TRANSMITTER SNIFFER MODE

Make sure the system is disarmed before trying to enter this mode.

Press [Installer code] + [#] + 3. This initiates a procedure that will check that all

transmitters have been properly programmed.

action.
