What is Practice Mode?

Updated 

Practice Mode begins as soon as monitoring activation is complete and ends automatically after 72 hours. During this time, the Dispatch Center will receive signals from your system but will not contact you or emergency responders.

While in Practice Mode you can get to know your system by practicing arming and disarming it, as well as triggering an alarm without having to worry about emergency services being dispatched. You can also get to know your Base Station settings & customization, and learn more about our Video Verification feature.
