The panel will prompt you to trip each sensor one at a time.
You may follow the panel voice prompting or test the sen-
sors in any order. Use the “Sensor Tripping Instructions”
table in your Simon 3 Installation Manual to trip sensors
We recommend that you test the touchpad after all program-
ming is completed and whenever a touchpad-related prob-
lem occurs.
If a Touchpad Fails the Sensor Test
If sirens do not beep when a touchpad is tripped, use an ITI
RF Sniffer (60-401) test tool to verify that the touchpad is
transmitting. Constant beeps from the RF Sniffer indicate a
runaway (faulty) touchpad. If the touchpad is faulty, replace
it.
How to Improve Sensor Communication
❑ Relocate the touchpad.
❑ If necessary, replace the touchpad.
To Relocate a Touchpad:
1. Test the touchpad a few inches from the original posi-
tion.
2. Increase the distance from the original position and
retest until an acceptable location is found.
3. Mount the touchpad in the new location (see Mounting
the Dialog Touchtalk 2-Way RF Touchpad section).
4. If no location is acceptable, replace the touchpad.
To Replace a Touchpad:
1. Test a known good touchpad at the same location.
2. If the transmission beeps remain below the minimum
level, avoid mounting a touchpad at the location.
3. If the replacement touchpad functions, contact GE
Interlogix for repair or replacement of the problem
touchpad.
Mounting the Dialog Touchtalk 2-
Way RF Touchpad
To mount the touchpad on a wall, do the following:
1. Open the door of the touchpad.
2. Gently pull down on the tab at the bottom of the touch-
pad to separate the touchpad body from the touchpad
mounting plate.
3. Use the two screws (included with the touchpad) to
attach the touchpad to the wall.
4. Reattach the touchpad to the mounting plate.
Testing the Touchpad After Mounting
Repeat the steps listed in the “Performing a Sensor Test”
section in this manual.
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.
Test touchpad operation by pressing the buttons as
described below;
1. Numeric Buttons (0 - 9) - Used to enter an access code
or turn individual lights on and off.
2. Disarm Button - The control panel is disarmed to level
1. Doors, windows, and motion sensors are disarmed.
Disarm also requires the access code to be entered.
3. ARM Doors & Windows Button - The control panel is
armed to level 2.
4. ARM Motion Sensors Button - The control panel is
armed to level 3. If the ARM Doors & Windows button
was previously pressed, the control panel is armed to
level 4 (Doors/Windows and Motion Sensors armed).
5. Lights On Button - Pressing this button twice quickly
turns off all lights controlled by the system.
6. Lights Off Button - Pressing this button twice quickly
turns off all lights controlled by the system.
7. Emergency Buttons - If learned in as a sensor type 0 -
Intrusion, 03-Silent, 06 or 07-Emergency and pressed
simultaneously, will activate alarm reports to the cen-
tral station.
