The only way to ensure that your alarm system is working properly is to test it with the Chubb Security Systems Monitoring Centre. We recommend that you do this once a month.

Alarm System Test Procedures:

• Advise the Chubb Monitoring Centre of your intent to test
•  Call the Monitoring Centre and identify yourself by providing your name and password or pass-code
•  Tell the Monitoring Centre that you are about to test your alarm system, and that you will call them back upon completion of the test

• Test your alarm system
•  Turn your alarm system on, just as you would if you are leaving your premises
•  Wait for the delay time to expire (usually 30 seconds)
•  Walk through the secured area and open secured doors and windows. If your system has a siren installed, it will sound when you trip the alarm devices
•  Once you have tripped all the alarm devices, wait 45 seconds, and turn off your alarm system

• Confirm the result
•  Call the Chubb Monitoring Centre identifying yourself
•  Ask the Monitoring Centre to verify a successful test of the alarm system by providing you with the alarm signals received
•  If the proper signals were not received, ask the Operator to schedule a service visit

You should perform these tests on a regular basis to ensure that everything is in good working order. Chubb recommends that these tests be conducted on a monthly basis.

If you have any questions regarding system testing, please do not hesitate to contact the Monitoring Centre or your local Chubb location.
