The System Test performs a two-second check of the keypad sounder and bell or siren, in addition to 

testing the keypad status lights and the panel backup battery.

whether verbal chime or prompting are enabled and regardless of the volume setting. The keypad 
LEDs will all flash for the 2-second duration and a progress wheel will be shown on the screen. 
This test also forces the panel to perform a battery check, and it sends a test transmission signal
