TEST MODE
✦ Even though this is a self-monitoring supervised
system, the National Burglar and Fire Alarm
Association recommends that all security systems
should be tested manually on a regular basis.
1. The Console must be in Off Mode before switching
to Test Mode.
2. Switch the Console into Test Mode by entering a
user code and pressing TEST.
✴ When the system is switched to the Test Mode, the Console
will sound a “Gong” and four “Beeps”.
3. Holding down the TEST button in Test Mode will light
all of the Console’s indicators.
✴ The sensor status indicators will fl ash for each sensor
programmed into the Console.
4. Go to each sensor and press its test button or open
and close the protected opening.
5. To test the wireless keypad, press the wireless
keypad’s
key.
✴ The Console will make a “Bing” sound as each sensor is
tested, followed by 1-3 beeps indicating signal strength with
3 beeps being the strongest signal.
✴ As each sensor is tested, the sensor status indicator for the
sensor will stop fl ashing and return to showing the current
status of the sensor.
6. Continue testing until there are no fl ashing sensor
status indicators.
