Note: On XT Series panels, the backup communication is tested at the same frequency as the
main communication.
Test Time: Enter the time of day that the panel transmits an automatic recall test for the main
communication line. This test signal will verify that communication is working properly between the
panel and the central station.
Test Day: Select the day of the week from the drop-down menu that the panel will send a test signal
on the main communications line to the central station. This will send the test signal once a week.
Selecting All from the Recall Day menu will send the test signal every 24 hours.
Test Time (XR150/XR350/XR550 Series/XR500 Series/
XR2500F/XR100 Series): Select the day of the week or the
number of hours from the drop-down menu. This tells the panel
how often to send a test signal using the main communication
path to the central station. Selecting a day of the week sends a
test signal once a week on that day. Selecting All from the Test
Time menu sends the test signal every 24 hours. If more
frequent testing is required, select 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours,
or 12 hours instead of making one of the day selections. When
programmed, the test occurs at the programmed minutes indicated in the Automatic Recall Test
Time.
Test Days (XT Series): Select how often the panel sends a test signal using the main and backup
communication paths to the central station. Only the communication paths that are programmed are
available.
Net Test Days (XTLN, XTLN-WiFi): Select how often the panel sends a test signal using network
communication to the central station.
Cell Test Day (XTL): Select how often the panel sends a test signal using cellular communication to
the central station.
Defer Test: Select Yes to allow the panel to defer the programmed automatic recall test. Select No to
send the test report as programmed, regardless of the previous panel communication. Test Frequency
must also be programmed when Defer Test is set to Yes. Not Available on XT Series or XTL panels.
Test Frequency: This allows you to specify, from 1 to 60 days, the maximum length of time between
automatic recall tests. Not Available on XT Series panels.
Example: Two panels, A and B, are programmed the same: Defer Test is set to Yes and Test
Frequency is set to 7.
Panel A: Panel A sends no signals to the receiver during the seven day Test Frequency cycle. On
the seventh day Panel A sends the automatic recall test to the receiver.
