How to Walk-Test the System
A walk-test allows you to test
your system's functions without
causing an alarm. You can be
sure your security system is
functioning properly by con-
ducting a walk-test once a
week.
The first step of a walk-test is
to place your system in walk-
test mode. Then, walk in front
of motion sensors, and open
protected doors and windows.
Each time a sensor detects
your presence, the keypad
beeps, and names the zone in
its display.
If your system fails to detect a
sensor, exit the walk-test mode
and make sure the sensor's
zone is not bypassed. If it is
bypassed, remove the bypass
and repeat the walk- test. If this
does not correct the problem,
contact your service represen-
tative.
Important: during a walk-test,
your building is not protected
against actual alarms.
To Conduct a Walk-Test:
1. Press and hold the
[walk test] key for 2 seconds
until you hear two beeps.
When prompted, enter the
master user code. You see:
WALK TEST?
Byp=NO Home=YES
2. Press the key. You
see:
AREA #
WALK TEST
Test your sensors by opening
protected doors and win-
dows, and by walking in front
of motion sensors. You see
something like this:
FAULTED ZN 03
In this example, a fault was
noted on zone 3.
3. To exit, press the
key.
