Check your alarm panel for battery or trouble warnings, and follow up on low-battery notifications from the Control Room. Arrange system and backup-power tests with Copwatch beforehand.

Include a battery assessment in your annual maintenance. Ask our Technical Department whether annual replacement is appropriate for your system, battery type and power-outage conditions. Replace a failing battery sooner.
