2-Way Voice Test Mode
At the Protected Premises: To test the VIM and 6139AV keypad 2-way voice operation, both the installer at
the protected premises and the central station operator do the following.
NOTE: The VIM has built-in LEDs which identify its operating mode. It can be
helpful to view these LEDs when performing the following test. To view the
LEDs, remove the VIM's cover and refer to the table that follows.
VIM STATUS LED FUNCTIONS
LED STATE MEANING
NO LED LIT Off VIM Idle
RED LIT Steady Talk to single keypad
Flashing Talk to All Mode
GREEN LIT Steady VOX Mode
BOTH LIT Steady Listen to single keypad
Flashing in unison Listen to All Mode
Alternating Flash Waiting for operator's callback ID code
1. The installer enters the security code and presses #65 at a 6139AV 2-way
voice keypad.
The keypad displays "AUDIO 2WAY TEST" momentarily and a test message
is sent to the central station, with a "listen-in to follow" message (a Callback will
be required if in the Auto Callback mode).
The keypad then initially displays the "LISTEN MODE" message (if so
programmed via "VIM TEXT" option). Subsequently, this message changes,
depending on the 2-way voice mode the central station operator selects
(step 1 of "At the Central Station" below), such as "LISTEN MODE" (3
beeps), "TALK MODE" (1 beep), or "VOX MODE" (2 beeps).
2. The installer can say something verbally to the central station operator from
this keypad to confirm that the "listen-in" is working properly.
3. The installer should speak out loud near each of the 2-way voice keypads so
the operator can confirm their operation.
4. The installer can adjust the "Talk Mode" audio level using the procedure
described earlier.
At the Central Station: 1. When the test message and listen-in to follow message is received, the
operator lifts the receiver to begin a 2-way voice session and presses a
command key (see VIM OPERATOR FUNCTIONS section earlier in this
manual). If Auto Callback option is chosen, the operator will have to call back
within 5 minutes to begin a 2-way voice session.
The system defaults to "LISTEN MODE."
2. The operator should listen for the installer's verbal message. The operator
can then switch to "TALK MODE" or "VOX MODE" and say something to the
installer at the premises to confirm proper operation of these modes.
3. The operator should switch to each of the other installed 2-way voice
keypads and listen for the installer's verbal message.
4. The operator can switch to "talk Mode" and speak while the installer adjusts
the keypad's audio level.
5. In partitioned systems, repeat this test in each partition.
To test the operator-initiated callback feature and audio ID number, the
operator can enter Ò88Ó, hang up, and call back within 5 minutes and enter
the proper ID code (field 1*59).
To end this test mode, the operator enters "99." This test mode also automatically
ends after 90 seconds if no commands are issued.
