Testing Your Entire System
All smoke detectors in this installation must be tested by your smoke detector installer or dealer once
a year to ensure they are functioning correctly. It is the user’s responsibility to test the system weekly
(excluding smoke detectors). Ensure you follow all the steps in the ‘Testing Your System’ section
above.
NOTE: Should the system fail to function properly, call your installation company for service im-
mediately.
1. Prior to testing, ensure that the system is disarmed and the Ready light is on.
2. Press and close all zones to return the system to the Ready state.
3. Perform a System Test by following the steps in the previous section.
4. To test the zones, activate each detector in turn (e.g., open each door/window or walk in motion
detector areas).
The System will display the following message when each zone (detector) is activated: “Secure
System Before Arming < >”, “Secure System or Enter Code” or “Secure or Arm System”. Use the
keys to view which zones are open. The message will disappear when the zones are
closed.
Walk Test Mode
The installer or user can initiate a Walk Test mode for the system. While in Walk Test mode, The
Ready, Armed, and Trouble LED's will flash to indicate that Walk Test is active. When the system auto-
matically terminates the Walk Test mode, it will annunciate with an audible warning (5 beeps every
10 seconds), beginning five minutes prior to the termination of the test.
Allowing Computer Access To Your System
From time to time, your installer may need to send information to or retrieve information from your
security system. Your installer will do this by having a computer call your system over the telephone
line. You may need to prepare your system to receive this ‘downloading’ call. To do this:
1. Press [Master code] at the keypad. This allows downloading for a limited period of
time. During this time, the system will answer incoming downloading calls.
For more information on this feature, please ask your installer.
