Conduct a Walk Test

1. From the Main Menu, press for System Tests.

2. Select for Walk Test-No Rpt. The LCD will display "WALK TEST STOPPED" on Line

1 and "ENTER = start test" on Line 2. If you select this option, central station reporting
will be disabled while the test is in progress.

Or

Select for Walk Test-with Rpt. The LCD will display "WALK TEST STOPPED" on
Line 1 and "ENTER = start test" on Line 2. If you select this option, central station report-
ing will occur as normal during the walk test.

The panel generates a TEST report to the central station when the walk test begins. During
a walk test, the panel’s normal fire alarm function is completely disabled, placing the
panel in a local trouble condition. All zones respond as 1-Count zones (respond when a
single detector is in alarm) during a walk test. Each alarm initiated during the walk test
will be reported and stored in the event history buffer.

3. Press

to end the walk test. The system will reset. The panel will send a "TEST

RESTORE" report to the central station.

If you do not end the walk test manually within four hours, it will end automatically.

If an alarm or pre-alarm condition is occurring in the system, you will not be able to enter the
walk test.

Note: the panel does not do a full 30 second reset on resettable power outputs. As soon as the device is back to

normal, the panel is ready to go to the next device.

IMPORTANT!

If any alarm verification zones are being used, the user will be asked if they
wish to disable alarm verification during walk test. This occurs for either walk
test option.
