We recommend that you test your Sensaphone weekly to be sure it is
functioning properly. This will ensure that when a problem arises the
Sensaphone will be ready to alert the appropriate personnel.
There are several tests that can be performed:
1) Call the unit and listen to the Status Report. This will test the unit’s abil-
ity to answer the phone and speak a message. It will also verify that all of
the zones are reading properly, the alarm conditions are OK, the electric-
ity is on, the microphone is functioning, and the batteries are OK.
2) Create an alarm on each zone by tripping all connected sensors.
Temperature sensors: Heat or cool the sensor.
Motion sensors: Have someone walk in front of the sensor.
Door/window sensors: open the door/window.
