Fire Test
I have this feature.
I do not have this feature.
This feature requires a passcode.
Use this function to test points and other 24-hour points to be certain they
function properly. You can review untested points at your keypad to help
pinpoint any problems.
When initiated, the Fire Test tests the fire bell pattern on the bell output and rings
the keypad fire bell for 2 seconds. The AC is disabled for 4 minutes to test the
system’s battery power. If the battery cannot maintain the system for the 4-minute
period, the keypad appears to go dead. If this happens, contact your security
company. At the end of the 4-minute period, AC returns to the system and the
control panel restores. A message is be sent to your security company upon
initiation and completion of the Fire Test. During the Fire Test, no 24-hour alarms
are sent to your security company.
If there is no activity on the system for 20 minutes, the system automatically exits
from the Fire Test.

To use Fire Test:
1. Ensure your security system is idle.
2. Press the [COMMAND] bar. The Command mode indicator light
comes on.
3. Press the [5] key, and then the [8] key. Audible devices (both interior
and exterior) sound the fire bell.
4. One by one, activate the detection devices to fault each point. The
audible fire devices sound momentarily and the keypad display
indicates the faulted point, verifying that the detection device is
working properly.
5. To end the Fire Test, press any numeric key on the keypad. If no
activity occurs on the system for 20 minutes, the fire test ends
automatically.
