This test will verify the monitor input functions of the Alto 818.
1. Exit the command mode by typing BYE (B) at the command prompt.
2. Using the toggle switch installed on the MSM as in Figure 5-1, close the contact. If a jumper
wire is used, short the L and H contacts on the MSM. The terminal monitor should indicate
an active relay point with a message similar to:
40 16:23:22 (1.2) MONITOR POINT ACTIVE
Alternately, log in, enter the command mode and type STATUS (STA) at the prompt to display
the monitor point status. The terminal should display the status similar to:
| Building Mode | Tamper | Power | Alarm |
|-------O-------|----A---|-------|-------|
