Diagnostics of the
control panel and
peripherals
You can test the function of all wireless
sensors deployed throughout the protected
area, to collect information about the
received signal strength from each
transmitter and to review accumulated data
after the test.
To perform diagnostics and to obtain
signal strength indication: see the keypad
Installer’s Guide
Conducting periodic
tests
The system should be tested at least once a
week and after an alarm. The periodic test
can be conducted locally or from a remote
location (with the assistance from a non-
technical person in the house).
To conduct a walk test locally: see the
keypad Installer’s Guide or the keypad
User’s Guide
To conduct a walk test from remote
location: refer to the Remote Programmer
PC software User's Guide.
Partitions
The partitioning feature, when enabled,
divides your alarm system into distinct areas
each of which operates as an individual
alarm system. Partitioning can be used in
installations where shared security systems
are more practical, such as a home office or
warehouse building.
1. Enable partitioning: see the keypad
Installer’s Guide
2. Setup partition association for each
device: see the keypad Installer’s Guide
To understand more about partitioning:
see the keypad Installer’s Guide.
Device configuration
templates
The default parameters with which a new
device is enrolled into the system can be set
before you enroll devices. This default
template saves time on device configuration.
1. Define enrollment defaults for devices:
see the keypad Installer’s Guide
2. Enroll or pre-enroll devices: see the
keypad Installer’s Guide

Reporting to Private
Users and/or

and to report these events to the Monitoring
Station by SMS, PSTN or IP communication.

Quick installation with
link quality indication
With PowerG devices, there is no need to

wireless device, because PowerG devices
include a built-in link quality indicator.
Choosing the mounting location is a quick
and easy process.
To choose the ideal location to mount a
wireless device, see Chapter 2 Choosing the
Installation Location.
