___________________ Re: Can you clear my doubt about home security system? 2Jun 04, 2013 3:43 pm If it's a back to base monitored system then the system usually auto dials the monitoring company once a week and sends a log as well as any diagnostic reports. With our system, if there are any issues (eg. backup battery is flat) then the monitoring company contacts us to let us know. Might pay to check with them. On the other hand, if it's a local alarm only, then I suppose you probably should test it every now and then. Your panel should have an option to put the siren on "silent" so you can run a test routine on your IR sensors. It's all about wireless, self install now.
