Testing Your System
Note: If you are going to perform a System Test, call your Monitoring Station to inform them when you begin and
also when you end the test.
Testing Your Keypad Sounder and Siren
The System Test performs a two-second check of the keypad sounder and bell or siren, in addition to testing the
keypad status lights and the panel backup battery.
1. Press Options, User Functions [Master Code], then System Test. The following will occur:
- The system activates all keypad sounders and bells or sirens for 2 seconds. All keypad lights turn ON.
- The Ready, Armed, and Trouble LEDs will flash for the duration of the test.
2. To exit the function menu, press [#].
Testing Your Entire System
All smoke detectors in this installation must be tested by your smoke detector installer or dealer once a year to
ensure they are functioning correctly. It is the user's responsibility to test the system weekly (excluding smoke
detectors). Ensure you follow all the steps in the "Testing Your Keypad Sounder and Siren" section.
Note: Should the system fail to function properly, call your installation company for service immediately.
1. Prior to testing, ensure that the system is disarmed and the Ready light is on.
2. Close all zones to return the system to the Ready state.
3. Perform a System Test by following the steps in the "Testing Your Keypad Sounder and Siren" section.
4. To test the zones, activate each detector in turn (e.g., open each door/window or walk in motion detector
areas).
On an HS2TCHPRO/HS2TCHPROBLK keypad
(detector) is activated: "Ready to Force," "Not Ready". Use the zone status button to view which zones are open.
The message will disappear when the zones are closed.
Note: Some features described above will not be functional unless enabled by your installer. Ask your installer
which features are functional on your system.
Walk Test Mode
The installer can initiate a Walk Test mode for the system. While in Walk Test mode, the Ready, Armed, and
Trouble LEDs will flash to indicate that Walk Test is active. When the system automatically terminates the Walk
Test mode, it will annunciate with an audible warning (5 beeps every 10 seconds), beginning five minutes prior to
the termination of the test.
Allowing Computer Access To Your System
From time to time, your installer may need to send information to or retrieve information from your security sys-
tem. Your installer will do this by having a computer call your system over the telephone line. You may need to
prepare your system to receive this 'downloading' call. To do this, press Options, User Functions [Master Code],
then System Serv/DLS from the Touchscreen. This allows downloading for a limited period of time. During this
time, the system will answer incoming downloading calls. For more information on this feature, please ask your
installer.
