Alarms
One of the most important concerns facing the security industry 
today is false alarms. The accidental dispatching of police and 
Þ re agencies places others in jeopardy by limiting the response 
capability of those emergency service units. We take this concern 
seriously and have spent many hours training our employees to 
recognize the causes of false alarms and prevent them from 
occurring.
As part of our commitment to reducing false alarms, we would like 
to encourage you to read this guide thoroughly. All the information 
contained here can help you quickly, and comfortably, learn the 
Security Command system operation. If you have any additional 
questions, or feel that you need more training, please do not 
hesitate to contact us.
Test Your System Weekly
It is recommended that you test the burglary portion of your system 
at least once each week. Testing should involve an active test of all 
doors, windows, and motion detectors connected to your system.  
If your system also has Þ re protection, call the service department 
to Þ nd out how this portion of your system should be tested.
Refer to the System Test section of this guide for instructions on 
testing the burglary portion of your system and refer to the Fire 
Drill section for instructions on testing your system Þ re bells.
