Testing communication
Test communication between your system and the central monitoring station or a
voice report destination at least once per week to make sure you have the proper
telephone connection.
Note: The system must be in disarm mode.
To test system communication, do the following:
1. Scroll to
System tests
and press Enter.
2. The display shows
Enter code
. Enter the master code and press Enter.
3. The display shows
Sensor test
. Scroll to
Comm test
and press Enter.
4. The display shows
Comm test is on
.
5. After the communication test is successful, the display shows
Comm test OK
.
6. Press Status repeatedly to exit.
Note: If your system is not connected to a central monitoring station and you do
not have a voice report destination programmed, you won’t be able to perform
the communication test.
If the communication test is successful, the system displays Comm test OK. If the test is
unsuccessful, the Status button will light and within ten minutes the panel will display
Comm failure. If a communication test fails, call your security system dealer.
Note: During a two-way voice session, additional alarms will be indicated at the
panel immediately and reported to the Central Station as soon as the session
ends.
