Testing and Maintenance
Your AT&T Security System 8000 requires very little maintenance. All you will
normally need to do is replace its batteries whenever they run low. YOU
SHOULD ALSO TEST YOUR SYSTEM WEEKLY-WITH AND WITHOUT AC
POWER-TO BE SURE EVERYTHING WORKS PROPERLY.
Weekly System Test
Perform the following test procedure every week; once with the Central
Controller plugged in and once with the Central Controller unplugged. This will
ensure that the backup batteries operate properly.
Enter your security code on your keypad. Press Off. Your system is now set
to OFF.
Within 2 minutes of setting your system to OFF, press and hold Test/Demo
on your Central Controller for 3 seconds until a decimal point appears in
the display. Your system is now in the DEMONSTRATION mode.
Enter your security code on the keypad and press Away.
Go to each transmitter and cause it to set off an alarm. (Open the door or
window, activate its motion or smoke detector, or otherwise trip its sensor.)
In the DEMONSTRATION mode, the alarm you hear will not be as loud as
a normal alarm. (The automatic telephone dialer and any external sirens
will be deactivated and the volume on internal sounders will be lowered.)
The pattern of the alarm you hear should correspond to the type of alarm
you triggered-fire, intrusion, environmental, or auxiliary (see page 10).
