Does anyone know how to get the MA3000 to send a daily test signal, as
required by NFPA, on both phone lines. No problem sending test on telco 1,
just don't know how to make it test on telco 2. On our commercial fire
alarms, each line calls into a different account number and different
receiver for each line. We get no test on the second line.
Thanks,
Allan

Can you program openings and closings to dial on the second line? If
so, set up an auto-arm-auto-disarm window for the same time every day.
This should satisfy your "test" transmission requirements.

with tech support Monday and let you know what I find.

If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options The CF5530 two line module for the Napco MA3000 selects the best working
line of the two connected to it to dial out on. You cannot dictate which of
these is to be used for a test. You can, however, program the system to
send a test to a second phone number by programming the test to be sent to 1
and 3. This will test the second central station line, but not the second
phone line connected to the panel. The panel automatically reports a
problem with either phone should one have failed or has a problem.

Allan:
Unless the AHJ wants something "out of the ordinary", UL's requirements
mirror NFPA 71. I've just checked the latest edition and there's no
actual requirement for performing a 24 hour test transmission on the
back-up line. Check my response to DougL.
