4. Testing the System
It is important to fully test the system after installation. CommPact has several testing
tools to verify that the system will operate optimally, including the wireless
communication
1. Go to the main menu and press
'√'
2. Enter engineer code
3. Decide which quick key should be selected as summarized in Table 10.

Option Description and Notes
7>0>3 WL Sounder
Test
The external sounder is sounded briefly
7>0>4 Sounder Test Built-in sounder is sounded briefly
7>0>6 Walk Test A list of registered devices appears. Trigger each device;
when the system receives a successful transmission from a
device the device is removed from the list

TX List This test is a scrollable inventory of all registered devices and
their last reported status. Using the arrow buttons, scroll
through the devices list. The devices list displays the
zone/device number or descriptor.(Press the
key to toggle
the display) , the signal strength of the last received
transmission and the last received status of the transmitter
7>9>1 GSM Signal
Strength
Display the signal strength of the cellular network. In severe
cases of low GSM signal consider using external GSM
antenna.
7>9>2 RF RSSI level Measure the RF RSSI level (RF noise measured by the
systems' receiver). The result in levels from 1 to 9 is similar to
the level of detector transmitter's signal strength. It is
recommended that the gap between the RF noise level and
the TX signal strength be at least 2. For example, if the RF
RSSI level is 5 and the TX signal strength is 6, consider
relocation of the Control Panel or its peripherals, or use
Repeater (EL-2635).
5 Follow Me Enter telephone number and perform a test to ensure follow
me is operating
6>1 View Event
Log
Displays the last 1022 events of the system. The event
displays type of event, event time and the zone number. In
addition it indicates if the event has been reported to the
CMS as follows: R: Report Sent, F: Report Failed, C: Report
Canceled, N: No Report, D: Disable – Not reported to CMS
