How to Perform a Central Station Test

Central Station Signal Test is a new feature added to ClareOne in the Fall 2021 release. It enables installers to send manual tests and to configure periodic test signals to the central station. A manual test will send a test signal code 601, and the periodic test will send a test signal code 602.

The central station test can be managed from FusionPro or directly on the ClareOne.
