6.2 Conducting a Periodic Test
The PowerMaster enables you to conduct the periodic test in four parts:
Siren Test: Each siren of the system is automatically activated for 3 seconds (outdoor sirens with low volume).
Temperature Sensor Test: When Temperature Sensors are enrolled in the system, the control panel displays the
temperature of each zone in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Test all devices: All devices are tested.
Other Device Test: Each of the other devices in the system is activated by the installer and the display indicates which
devices were not yet tested. The "it's me" indication helps to identify the untested devices if necessary. A counter also
indicates the number of devices that remain untested.

/ sensors or press any key of the selected handheld device to initiate the test.
After a device has been activated, the control panel reads "Zxx IS ACTIVATED" and the "N"
indicator drops one count.
Pressing during the testing process will display details of each device that has not yet
been tested. The control panel reads the device number, followed by the device type (for
