Testing the system
Before testing, we recommend that you close the panel cabinet door and the
covers on all modules (mounted outside the cabinet.) The testing environment
should match the system working environment.
You should test the system after installation or service and after adding or
removing devices from the system. See “Cellular backup communication” on
page 104 if you do not achieve correct test results.

• “Basic system commands” below
