This Device must be tested at least 1 time per week. Failure to do so can result in no alert notification and a
loss of production.
Call/Text Testing
SMS text message- If the date and time are setup correctly, then a Weekly text message will be sent every
Wednesday at 12:00. The message only goes to the first text number in the list and will be sent only one time.
Sending the correct acknowledgment code will conclude the test and it will be recorded that the user
responded to the test.

System Alert Testing
It is recommended that at least 1 time per week, a test alert is sent from the control(s) being monitored. It is
recommended that the alert be allowed to move through every number in the notify list to make sure that number
is called and/or sent an SMS message.
