If your test was not successful, the Base Station will announce “user auto-test failed, please contact “Technical Support”.

It is important to test your system once a month. Testing your system is quick and easy. If you have both a Mobile Device and a Cellular Base Station, after pressing the Base Station Test button, both devices will be in auto-test mode. Always have your Mobile Device nearby when testing your system. It is possible that the Mobile Device will go to a live operator. If the operator speaks to you, please advise them that you are testing your system. If you do not explain to the operator that you are okay and that you are testing, emergency help will be contacted.
