How to Test Your Security System

 

 

  • Call our 24-hour Central Station and advise the dispatcher that you are going to test your system.
  • Arm your alarm system.
  • Open all protected doors and windows. 
  • Walk through all motion detectors.
  • Let the alarm siren/bell ring for one full minute from the time you begin the test to be certain our Central Station has received the signal.
  • Call our Central Station at the completion of your test to confirm that all signals were received.
  • If any zone(s) did not signal our Central Station, we suggest you ask for a service work order.
