NFS2-3030 Programming Manual — P/N 52545:A 11/29/2005 69
Walk Test Alter Status
Basic Walk Test - The basic test allows a single operator to run audible tests on the panel. All logic
equation automation is suspended during the test. All ACS devices will default to Disable. They
may be enabled by selecting NO at the DISABLE ACS BOARDS soft key on the Walk Test Menu
screen (Figure 4.9).
Advanced Walk Test - The advanced test allows field-supplied output point programming that will
react to input stimuli such as CBE and logic equations. When points are activated in advanced
testing, each initiating event will latch the input. Release of the latch and subsequent activation of
the next point is controlled through use of the NEXT TEST soft key. All ACS devices default to
disable. They may be enabled by selecting NO at the DISABLE ACS BOARDS soft key on the
Walk Test Menu screen (Figure 4.9 ). An advanced test is audible.
An audible test is intended for pull station verification, magnet-activated tests on input devices,
input and output device and wiring operation/verification. Only devices previously configured to
participate and designated as part of the test through the following screens will make sound.
Walk Test Activation Indications
FlashScan poll mode
- Once the START TEST soft key has been pressed:
• Each intelligent addressable input device will blink its address in red, and each intelligent
addressable output device will blink its address in green. Pattern examples are given below.
• An input device activated in Walk Test latches on steady green for the duration of the test. If
the device is put in trouble (for instance, the detector head is removed, then replaced), the LED
will be latched on for the duration of the test.
• An output device activated in Basic Walk Test will remain active and the LED will glow steady
green for
– 4 seconds for alarms
– 8 seconds for troubles.
• An output device activated in Advanced Walk Test will remain active and the LED will glow
steady green until the NEXT TEST soft key is pressed.
CLIP poll mode
- Once the START TEST soft key has been pressed:
• Intelligent addressable input and output devices continue to blink red as usual until activated.
• An input device activated in Walk Test latches on steady red during activation. If the device is
put in trouble (for instance, the detector head is removed, then replaced), the LED wil be
latched on for the duration of the test.
• An output device activated during Basic Walk Test will remain active and the LED will glow
steady green (if a FlashScan module) or steady red (if a CLIP module) for
– 4 seconds for alarms
– 8 seconds for troubles.
• An output device activated in Advanced Walk Test will remain active and the LED will glow
steady green (if a FlashScan module) or steady red (if a CLIP module) until the NEXT TEST
soft key is pressed.
Conventional Devices
- Monitor modules with the Type Codes SMOKE CONV, HEAT DETECT, and
SMOKE DETECT, and outputs with the Type Code FORM C RESET do not participate in Walk Test other
than blinking their addresses if they are polled in FlashScan mode. To prevent the occurrence of
false alarms for conventional devices, 24 volt power will be interrupted for up to a minute after
Walk Test has been exited.
