Test pre-installation legacy functionality

Before making any modifications to the ATI hardware programming or wiring, ensure that the legacy functions are operational. Any pre-existing problems that were not identified during testing before making changes to wiring or programming configuration could make troubleshooting more difficult after full system testing begins.
If the site has ATI MassAlert ™ software, have the customer or site operations POC initiate a Quiet Test and Health Feedback function of the poles and observe the health statuses of each pole on the MassAlert ™ software.
In addition, the site should initiate a Public Address function and make a manual microphone announcement. The microphone announcement should be observed as providing a loud and clear signal from an unobstructed listening position 100–200 yards from a Giant Voice pole, preferably in line-of-site with the pole and not near any buildings or large structures.
Record any displayed faults or lack of clarity of any broadcasts observed. It may only be possible to create audio with the new integration on par with the legacy audio functionality.
