How To
How to test a home alarm system
How to test a Home Security System
Your alarm monitoring program must be installed on your computer as a first step. You can download the most current version from manufacturer's website. The next thing you want to do is to set up your phone number so that when someone calls the monitoring center they get routed directly to your line. If you don't know what to do, contact your local provider for help. Now you can start testing once everything is in place.
Two main methods can be used to test your system. The first way is to use a dummy device. This device is essentially a fake one that looks just like the real one. Although it has all the same features of the real thing, it doesn't actually function. The sound it makes when it turns on is identical to the real thing, if it was functioning properly. But there are some disadvantages to using the dummy. It doesn't provide any information about the system's actual functionality. A second concern is that it could look suspicious to those who just happen to be looking at it. Finally, it could cause problems if it gets stolen.
The second option is to test the system manually. This means that you go through every feature of your system and make sure that it works properly. You would check, for example, whether the motion sensors are working, the cameras are recording properly, and if the door locks work. All of these should be tested at least once per week. Once everything is tested thoroughly, you will be able to feel confident that the system is working properly.
