Test Procedures
After installation is completed, the 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 the READY message is displayed.
2. Enter the security code and press the TEST key.
The external sounder will sound for 1 second. 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.
Note that the keypad will beep once every 40 seconds as a reminder that the system is in
the Test mode.
3. Fault and restore every sensor individually to assure that it is being monitored by the
system. Each time a protection zone is faulted, the keypad will sound 3 beeps, and the
identification of each faulted protection zone should appear on the keypad display.
NOTE: For 5800 wireless systems, triggering a zone set to Arm–AWAY, Arm–STAY, or
Disarm will take the system out of the TEST mode and cause that action.
4. Walk in front of any interior motion detectors (if used) and listen for the required sound
as movement is detected. The identification of the detector should appear on the display
when it is activated.
NOTE: Wireless motion detectors (passive infrared units) will send signals out only if
they have been inactive for 3 minutes.
5. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to test all smoke detectors, to ensure that all are
functioning properly. The identification of each detector should appear on the display
when each is activated.
6. Turn off the test mode by entering the security code and pressing the [OFF] key.
Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following tests.
Notify CS personnel in advance that tests will be in progress.
7. Arm the system (STAY) and fault one or more perimeter zones. After 15 seconds, silence
alarm sounder(s) by entering the security code and pressing [OFF].
Arm the system AWAY, and check the Entry/Exit zones for the programmed exit and
entry delays.
8. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that are in the system by using the Panic keys (or key
pairs on some keypads). If a key (or key pair) has been programmed for audible
emergency, the keypad will emit a steady alarm sound, and ALARM and zone number
will be displayed.
If a key (or key pair) has been programmed for silent emergency, there will be no audible
alarms or displays, but a report will be sent to the central station.
