Go to Perimeter 81 Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.
IDP initiated:

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the Perimeter 81 tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Perimeter 81 for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
