Section 24. TESTING THE SYSTEM
Test Procedure
After installation is completed, each partition of the Security System should be
carefully tested, as follows.
1. With the System in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact. If a NOT
READY message is displayed, press the [
*
] key to display the faulted zone(s).
Restore faulted zone(s) if necessary, so that READY message is displayed. Fault
and restore every sensor individually to assure that it is being monitored by the
system.
2. Enter the security code and press the TEST key. The outside sounder will
sound for 1 second. The keypad should sound 3 beeps each time a contact is
faulted. A test report should be transmitted (if programmed) to the Central
Station immediately. If the backup battery is discharged or missing, the sounder
may not turn on and a LOW BATTERY report will be transmitted with a TEST
report. The keypad will beep once per minute as a reminder that the system is in
the Test Mode. To turn off the test mode enter security code and press the OFF
key.
Note: Triggering a zone set to Arm Away, Arm Stay, or Disarm will take the
system out of TEST and cause that action.
Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following tests 3
and 4. Notify them in advance that tests will be in progress.
3. Arm the system and fault one or more zones. After 15 seconds (if optional dialer
delay is selected), silence alarm sounder(s) by entering the code and pressing
OFF. Check Entry/Exit delay zones.
4. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that are in the system by pressing the Panic
key (key pairs on some keypads) . 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. Silence the alarm by entering the security code
and pressing OFF.
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.
5. If output Relay Units/Powerline Carrier Devices have been installed, test their
programmed action.
6 Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.
7. To test the wireless part of the system and the RF Receiver, perform the two
additional tests that follow:
a. TRANSMITTER SNIFFER MODE
Make sure both partitions are disarmed before trying to enter this mode.
Press Installer code + # + 3 on partition 1's keypad. This initiates a
procedure that will check that all transmitters have been properly
programmed.
Note: If the communicator is in the process of sending a report to the
central station, the system will not go into the Sniffer mode. If so, wait
a few minutes, and try again.
The keypads in both partitions will display all zone numbers of wireless units
(in both partitions) programmed into the system. As the system receives a
signal from each of the transmitters, the zone number of that transmitter will
disappear from the display. The transmitter codes may be checked upon
installation, or in an installed system.
All the wireless zone numbers should disappear after about 1-1/2 hours.
Notes:
• All BR type units must physically be activated to clear the display.
