VII) Testing Your System
Test your system before an emergency occurs.
Do not neglect to review programmed information and verify all elements of your
system thoroughly before relying on the dialer to deliver the necessary information
to the desired parties accurately and completely. We strongly recommend testing the
system in test mode before connecting to a telephone line. The test mode tests the
stored information, not the full functionality of the dialer. To test the full
functionality of the dialer, the unit must be tested in the operate mode. In the test
mode, the dialer will not make more than one attempt per number dialed or play any
OGM more than once.
NOTE: IF YOU ENTER THE WRONG CHOICE, PRESS “M” KEY
REPEATEDLY AND RETURN TO THE “PROGRAM MODE”, THEN
SELECT THE SECTION TO CHANGE (“1” ACCEPT SECTION, “2” FOR
NEXT SECTION), THEN ENTER CORRECT INFORMATION.
a) STEP 1 Press the “M” Mode key until the LCD reads: TEST: T-LINE
1(YES) 2(NO)
b) STEP 2 Press “1” to display the T-Line configuration. The data will scroll
through all selections. Press “2” to scroll to the next section.
c) STEP 3 The LCD will read: TEST: CHANNEL(S)
1(YES) 2(NO)
Press “1” to test channels.
Press “2” to scroll to the next section.
d) STEP 4 The LCD will read: SELECT: 1-4
5(ALL) 0(DONE)
Select the channel you wish to test (1-4). Press “5” to test “all” Channels. Once a
channel is selected (or “all”) the programmed channel information will be
displayed on the LCD. Verify data accuracy as the LCD scrolls through by
comparing the information displayed with that specified on your Program
Planner. Listen to your recorded message(s) to ensure that the correct OGM (if
programmed) is delivered. Press “0” to exit testing.
e) STEP 5 Now connect your dialer to the telephone line yo u will be using and test
the system again, to determine if it functions correctly in an actual emergency
situation. Make sure you notify the receiving party of your intent to call them,
and tell them it is just a test.
f) STEP 6 To test the operation of your entire system, set Mode to OPERATE and
proceed as explained in the next section: Operating Your System.
