An Intruder Alarm Maintenance Inspection is a routine check to ensure that an intruder alarm system is functioning correctly, efficiently, and securely. It helps to identify and address issues before they compromise the system’s reliability or performance.

Using eAuditor for an Intruder Alarm Maintenance Inspection ensures a systematic and efficient process for maintaining the system’s reliability. Here’s how to perform the inspection effectively:

Steps to Perform an Intruder Alarm Maintenance Inspection Using eAuditor

1. Create a Custom Inspection Template:

   • Open eAuditor and design a detailed template covering the following sections:
     • General Information: Date, time, location, inspector details.
     • Control Panel: Power supply, error messages, and operational tests.
     • Sensors and Detectors: Motion sensors, door/window contacts, and tamper detection.
     • Communication Systems: Monitoring center connections (e.g., phone lines, cellular).
     • Alarm Sounders: Internal and external sirens.
     • Battery and Backup Power: Battery charge and performance.
     • System Logs and Settings: Error/tamper logs, programming checks.

2. Checklist Components:

   • Add specific tasks such as:
     • Test each motion sensor and door/window contact for proper triggering.
     • Inspect wiring for damage, wear, or loose connections.
     • Check the control panel’s error status and reset if necessary.
     • Test external and internal alarm sounders for functionality.
     • Verify that backup batteries can power the system during outages.
     • Test communication with monitoring centers (e.g., triggering alerts).
     • Review system logs for abnormalities and tampering alerts.

1. Conduct the Inspection:
   • Use eAuditor on your mobile device or tablet during the inspection.
   • Log findings in real-time, including:
     • Test results (pass/fail).
     • Photos or videos of damaged components or areas of concern.
     • Comments or notes about specific observations or recommended actions.
   • Mark items as “resolved” once fixed.
2. Functional Tests:
   • Trigger the alarm system intentionally to verify proper functionality.
   • Test all zones for accurate detection and alarm activation.
3. Report Generation:
   • Generate a detailed, professional report in eAuditor after the inspection.
     • Include all findings, photos, and recommendations.
     • Highlight urgent repairs or parts replacement.
4. Schedule Follow-Up Actions:
   • Use eAuditor to schedule regular maintenance inspections or set reminders for repairs or upgrades.
