Turning Transmitter Off
The transmitter can be turned off only when it is not communi-
cating with the monitor. To turn the transmitter off:
1. Turn monitor off or disconnect interface cable from transmit-
ter or monitor. The Communications Indicator will turn amber
after a few seconds.
2. Press On/Off button. The Communications Indicator will turn
Off.
! If you disable communications between the transmitter and
monitor and do not turn off the transmitter, the transmitter will
send Communication Failure pages to assigned pagers at
periodic intervals for up to one hour. After an hour has passed,
the transmitter will automatically turn itself off.
Operating Transmitter On Battery Power
The transmitter has an internal, rechargeable battery. It can operate on
battery power for approximately 45 minutes if it becomes disconnected
from AC power.
The battery will automatically recharge when connected to AC power.
When the AC Indicator is green, it indicates that the transmitter is
connected to power, and that the internal battery is recharging. A
completely discharged battery takes approximately 17 hours to return to
full charge. The transmitter can be used while it is recharging.

You should test the AlarmView System setup by conducting a Test Page

are examples of when a Test Page should be performed:
