number. Press the # key to toggle the test status of each zone in the Walk Test: the test status of the zone
changes to TEST if it is included in the test and # = TEST if it is not. When all the required zones have been
selected, press the ent key to start the walk test.
Press the key to include all zones in the Selected Zones walk test, without having to individually select the
zones. Once all zones are selected, the # key can be used to remove selected zones from the test.
NOTE: PA, PA Silent, PA Delay, PA Silent Delay and Fire are not included in the test when the key is
used to include all zones.
The response times of the zone circuits are reduced to 20 msecs (40 msecs for RF RIO’s) for the duration of
the walk test to facilitate the detection of loose connections or damaged wiring.
Once the walk test has started, opening a zone (or a zone that is open at the start of the test) activates outputs
programmed as Entry/Exit Horn. If a single zone is open, the keypad displays the address and function of
the zone. If multiple zones are open, then the keypad indicates how many zones are open; the open zones can
be viewed by pressing the A or B keys.
NOTE: The Walk Test option does not display the status of the zones. If an open zone is included in the
walk test, the Entry/Exit Horn will activate as soon as the test is started and remains active until the
zone is closed.
While the walk test is active the message WALK TEST ACTIVE / ESC to abort is displayed; press the #
key to view all zones that have been walk tested so far. To return to the walk test press the # key again.
NOTE: RF zones will also record the signal strength in reduced gain mode.
2 = Audible
This option allows the user to do a Walk Test that does produce an audible sound. The Walk Test works in
the same way as the Silent Walk Test.
Ending the Walk Test
To terminate the walk test, press the esc key. The test will terminate automatically if no zones are activated for
20 minutes.
The results of the test can be viewed by accessing the event log (refer to option 22 = DISPLAY LOG). The
start of the walk test is indicated by the display WALK TEST +; each zone that was tested is recorded (the
activation of each zone is recorded only once during the test — even if it was opened several times); the end
of the test is indicated by WALK TEST –.
