Testing the System

Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the installer and frequent testing by the user are vital
to continuous satisfactory operation of any alarm system.
The installer should assume the responsibility of developing and offering a regular maintenance program to the
user as well as acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the alarm system and its
component parts. Recommendations must be included for a specific program of frequent testing (at least
weekly) to ensure the system's proper operation at all times.

Testing the System
After installation is completed, the security system should be carefully tested, as follows:
1. With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact. If the "ready" LED or "Home"
button is not lit, select the Zones icon to display the faulted zone(s). If necessary, restore faulted zone(s)
so that the "ready" LED or "Home" button lights. Fault and restore every sensor individually to assure
that it is being monitored by the system.

Armed System Test

Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following tests 1 and 2. Notify the Central
Station in advance that tests will be in progress.
1. Arm the system and fault one or more zones. After 15 seconds (if optional dialer delay is selected),
silence alarm sounder(s) by entering an "OFF" sequence. Check entry/exit delay zones.
2. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that are in the system by selecting the Panic key. If the system has
been programmed for audible emergency, the keypad will emit a steady alarm sound, and "ALARM" and
zone number will be displayed. For
Code. For
L5200CN/L7000CN
If the system has been programmed for silent emergency, there will be no audible alarms or displays, but
a report will be sent to the central station.
3. Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.
4. To test the wireless part of the system and the RF receiver, perform the two additional tests described in
the Installing Wireless Zones section: Sniffer mode and Go/No Go Test.
Note: System Test mode and Go/No Go Test will be automatically terminated after 3-1/2 to 4 hours if the installer or user
does not manually terminate it. This ensures that fire and panic zones will not remain disabled. However, Sniffer
mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit (by entering an OFF Sequence) Sniffer mode to return
to normal operation. During the final 5 minutes the system will emit double beeps indicating that the end of Test
