Test the SiXSIREN
The SiXSIREN should be tested immediately after installation and weekly. Activate Test Mode remotely from the
Controller (see Controller’s manual for details). The product must be tested at least once a year.
Test Mode tests the sounder and LED:
• Sounder – the Burglary warble tone will sound for 3 seconds.
• LED – the White LED strobe will flash for 15 seconds.
