Testing the System
It is important to fully test the system. Here are typical, recommended system tests
that should be performed at system installation, and subsequently as needed:
Bus Test: To test bus communication quality. See Performing a Bus Test, page 54.
Background noise-level threshold & calibration for wireless devices:
See Measuring Background Noise Level and Defining the Threshold Limit, page 69.
Wireless Communication Test: For testing the signal strength of wireless devices.
See Performing a Wireless Comm. Test for Measuring Signal Strength, page 70.
Walk Test (for zones): Arm the system, and then enter the protected area in order
to trigger alarm events at each detector to ensure operability. See the installer
Maintenance menu
Walk test, page 213.
Monitoring Station Test: See View Menu
Advanced MS Test, page 211.
GSM signal strength (RSSI): View the signal strength result measured by the
GSM module (from 0—5). Go to: installer Maintenance menu
Diagnostics
GSM
Module, page 213.
Additional tests at the installer Maintenance menu: For keypads, sirens, strobes,
wireless, and diagnostics (including main battery test, and zone resistance test).
See from page 213.
Follow-Me Test: After programming FM destination(s), go to:
installer Follow Me Menu
Test. Trigger an alarm activation (for example, as
done during a Walk Test), and see if the FM notification is received at the FM
destination(s). See Follow Me Menu, page 210.
