You have established a proper customer identification number, abort code or password with the Monitoring Central Station to use for your security verification.
All the devices within the alarm system have been tested and are working properly.
The alarm installer trains all of the people who will be using the alarm system and that they also have been given a proper customer identification number, abort code or password.
You have all necessary, emergency phone numbers written down for future reference. (Example: alarm installation company, Monitoring Central Station, responding authorities, etc.)
You know how to “arm” and “disarm” the system properly and that you know how to operate all the devices within the alarm system, so that you feel comfortable using the system. If you don’t understand some of the functions of the alarm system, it is critical that you ask questions of the alarm installer and get the appropriate explanations before he or she leaves the premises! This will help to prevent false alarms later on.
