Basic System Commands
Table 8 describes basic touchpad operating commands. For complete details on system operation,
including user programming, refer to the system User’s Manual.
Testing Zones/Sensors
Test sensors/zones after all programming is completed, whenever there is a change in environ-
ment, equipment, or programming, and whenever a zone- or sensor-related problem occurs.
If the system does not respond as described in the following procedure, see the “Troubleshoot-
ing” section.
Note
While the sensor test is a
valuable installation and ser-
vice tool, it only tests sensor
operation for the current
conditions. You should per-
form a sensor test after any
change in environment,
equipment, or programming.
1. Place all sensors and zones in their non-alarm state.
2. At an alphanumeric touchpad, enter the sensor test mode by pressing 8 + installer code + 3.
The touchpad sounds one beep and displays
SENSOR TEST. The panel starts a 15 minute
timer.
3. Trip each zone/sensor one at a time. Touchpads (and interior sirens) should sound one short,
high-pitched beep and the display should show the sensor name (or number) and
OK.
4. Press the
STATUS button when you think all zones/sensors are tested. The touchpad displays
any untested sensors/zones and touchpad panics. If all sensors/zones and touchpad panics
have been tested, the display shows
SENSOR TEST OK.
5. Test any untested zones/sensors and touchpad panics.
Note
If you hear a long, low-
pitched beep, proceed to the
following section “If a Wire-
less Sensor Does Not Test.”
6. The system stays in sensor test mode for 15 minutes. When less than 5 minutes remain,
touchpads and interior sirens beep and the panel announces the remaining time over the
speakers once every minute. After 15 minutes the panel disarms to OFF, automatically. If
you need more time to complete the sensor test, press 8 + installer CODE + 3 while the sys-
tem is still in sensor test mode. This restarts the 15 minutes of test time.
