Test your panels without triggering every phone in the building
Scheduled panel testing is essential — but it shouldn't flood every phone with alarm messages or create confusion about whether there's a real emergency.
One click to silence notifications — not your monitoring
Panel testing triggers dozens of alarms in quick succession. Without test mode, that means a flood of notifications hitting every phone on your contact list — and people stop trusting the alerts. Magnifire's test mode suppresses notifications while still capturing every single event, so your test data is complete and your team isn't desensitised.
-
Activate securely from the panel, web app, or phone app — with a fallback duration so it never accidentally stays on - App and SMS suppression during testing — no alert fatigue
- Every test event still captured and tagged
- End-of-test notification confirms normal monitoring resumed
Digital records that satisfy the standard
Paper logbooks get lost. They get damaged. They get questioned in audits. Magnifire creates digital, tamper-proof testing records automatically — every event timestamped, every session summarised, every report downloadable as a PDF. When the auditor asks for your testing history, you hand them a link instead of a binder.
- Automatic test session recording with timestamps
- PDF reports for every test session
- Tamper-proof digital records
- Satisfies Australian Standard 1851 requirements
Testing tools that work the way they should
Flexible Activation
Start and stop test mode from the panel, the web app, or the phone app — securely, by the technician on site or remotely. A configurable fallback duration ensures test mode never accidentally stays on if someone forgets to end the session.
PDF Test Reports
Every test session generates a PDF report with timestamps, event counts, and session details. Automatically emailed to subscribed report recipients and available for download any time — so stakeholders see the work the moment it's done.
AS 1851 Compliant
Structured, timestamped, tamper-proof digital records that meet the documentation requirements of Australian Standard 1851 — no paper logbooks required.
Common questions about testing
No. Test mode only suppresses Magnifire's own notifications (app and SMS) — your existing alarm monitoring provider and brigade connection are completely unaffected. As with any panel test, the technician will still need to isolate the panel from the brigade during testing; Magnifire's test mode doesn't replace that step.
Yes. Every event during a test session is captured, timestamped, and tagged in the test record — Magnifire just doesn't send out app or SMS notifications while test mode is active. Your test report includes the complete event log, so you have a full picture of exactly what happened during the session.
Magnifire's test records include timestamps, event details, and session summaries — the kind of structured, tamper-proof documentation that satisfies AS 1851 requirements. Many auditors prefer digital records over paper logbooks because they're harder to fabricate or lose.
