Not really.  All that's needed is to call the central office 
for the alarms telling them to put the system on "Test" for 
a certain length of time.  The central office will ignore any 
and all alarms during that time.  But past that time, they'll 
call the appropriate emergency crews.  

At least that's what's done here in the U.S. Don't know 
about elsewhere. 

Now maybe it's worth visiting that issue when writing 
up the user manuals. - Doug McKean
