How To
How to test a home security system
How to test a Home Security System
The first step is to install your alarm monitoring software on your computer. Download the most recent version from the manufacturer's site. Next, register your phone number so that monitoring center calls are routed directly to it. If you don’t know how to do that, you can ask your local service provider. After everything is set up correctly, it's time to begin testing.
There are two main methods to test your system. The first way is to use a dummy device. This is basically a fake device that looks like a real one. It doesn't function as well as the real device. You can turn it on and it will sound exactly the same as the real thing. But there are some disadvantages to using the dummy. It won't give you any information about your 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 is where you examine every part of your system to ensure that it functions properly. This would include checking that the motion sensors and cameras work correctly, the door locks function properly, and the camera recording is working. Make sure that you test all of these things at least once per week. Once everything has been thoroughly tested, you can feel confident your system is functioning well.
