Testing the System
❑ Two beeps verify that Door/Window sensors are
armed.
❑ One beep indicates the system is disarmed
❑ Three beeps verify that Motion Sensors are armed.
❑ Four beeps verify that both Door/Window and Motion
sensors are armed.
❑ SYSTEM STATUS-Press to determine system status and
system time.
❑ CHIME Doors-Press to enable two beeps that sound from
interior sirens, panel siren, and the X-10 powerhorn siren
(if set to unit number 9) when a protected door or window
learned into sensor group 10 or 13 is opened. If Option 41:
Chime Voice is on, the panel speaker also announces the
sensor name and number.
❑ CHIME Special Motion- Press to enable three beeps that
sound from interior sirens, panel siren, and the X-10 pow-
erhorn siren (if set to unit number 9) when a Motion Sen-
sor that is programmed as sensor type 25 is activated. If
there are no sensors learned into sensor group 25, this
function will not be available. If Option 41: Chime Voice
is on, the panel speaker also announces the sensor name
and number.
❑ LIGHTS Time Activated-Press to enable system con-
trolled lights to turn on/off at a scheduled time.

Sensors
We recommend that you test the sensors after all programming
is completed and whenever a sensor-related problem occurs.
Note
While the sensor test is a valuable installation and ser-
vice tool, it only tests sensor operation for the current
conditions. You should perform a sensor test after any
change in environment, equipment, or programming.
1. Place all sensors in their secured (non-alarm) state.
2. Open the panel cover.
3. Enter the appropriate access code.
4. Press Test.
The panel responds with Sensor test, press again to change or
DONE to select.
5. Press DONE.
The panel will prompt you to trip each sensor one at a
time. You may follow the panel voice prompting or test
the sensors in any order. Use the “Sensor Tripping
Instructions” table on the next page to trip sensors.
6. Interior sirens and speakers sound transmission beeps
and a voice announcement identifies the tripped sensor.
Each beep represents one RF packet. Count the num-
ber of beeps and refer to the “Minimum Beeps” table
for minimum requirements. After the beeps, the panel
announces, Sensor Name is activated, sensor status is
XX (XX = number of RF packets). The system will
continue to prompt for sensors that have not yet been
tested. When all sensors have been tested the panel will
announce, Sensor test complete, press DONE.
