Automatic Periodic Test Report
The system can be set to automatically send test reports (enabled in field *64; Contact ID code 602) at
specified intervals.
Frequency of the reports is set in Scheduling mode (event 11) or by the following key commands:
installer code + [#] + 0 + 0 = test report sent every 24 hours
installer code + [#] + 0 + 1 = test report sent once per week
installer code + [#] + 0 + 2 = test report sent every 28 days
Each mode sets schedule 32 to the selected repeat option; the first test report is sent 12 hours after
command.
To ensure that test reports are sent at the times expected, set the Real-Time Clock to the proper time
before entering the test report schedule command.
Automatic Standby Battery Tests
1. An automatic test is conducted every 3 minutes to ensure that a standby battery is present and
properly connected. If a battery is not present or is not properly connected, a "LOW BATTERY"
message is displayed and, if so programmed, will be reported to the central station.
2. A battery capacity test is automatically conducted for 2 minutes every 4 hours, beginning 4 hours
after exiting the Programming mode or after powering up the system. In addition, entry into the
Test mode will also cause a battery capacity test to be initiated. If the battery cannot sustain a
load, a "Low Battery" message is displayed and, if so programmed, will be reported to the central
station.
