Abstract:
Systems and methods for self-administering a sound test to verify operation of a speaker and/or alarm within a hazard detection system are described herein. The sound test can verify that the audible sources such as the alarm and speaker operate at the requisite loudness and frequencies. In addition, the sound test can be self-administered in that it does not require the presence of a person to initiate or verify that the audible sources are functioning properly.

Claim (Index 38):
A mobile device operative to communicate with a smart home device contained in a structure and that comprises a loud sounder, the mobile device comprising:\n communications circuitry; a user interface responsive to user inputs; and at least one processor operative to receive a user input via the user interface to activate a sound check feature in the smart home device, wherein when the sound check feature is enabled, the smart home device is operative to self-administer a sound test of the loud sounder at a non-invasive time frame by temporarily activating the loud sounder and reporting a result of whether the audio signal satisfied sound test criteria; and transmit, via the communications circuitry, a command to activate the sound check feature in the smart home device.
