Testing communication

Test communication between your system and the central monitoring station or a voice report destination at

least once per week to make sure you have the proper telephone connection.

Note: The system must be in disarm mode.

To perform a communication test:

1. Scroll to System Tests.

2. Press Enter. The display shows Enter Code.

3. Enter the master code.

4. Press Enter to accept the master code. The display shows Comm Test.

5. Scroll to Comm Test.

6. Press Enter. The display shows Comm Test is On.

7. After the communication test is successful, the display shows Comm Test Ok.

8. Press STATUS repeatedly to exit.

Note: If your system is not connected to a central monitoring station and you do not have a voice report destination

programmed, you won’t be able to perform the communication test.

If the communication test is successful, the system displays Comm Test Ok. If the test is unsuccessful, the

STATUS button will light and within ten minutes the panel will display Comm Failure. If a communication

test fails, call your security system dealer.
