Advisor Advanced ATSx000A(-IP) Installation and Programming Manual 51
The menu also allows you to run a walk test for a single zone, as well as a
general walk test, which is required by a central station operator to verify all
alarm system features, including set and unset, entry and exit, tampers, etc.
1.2.5.1 Walk test start
Before walk test starts, you are asked if the reporting to central stations must be
enabled.
Choose Yes if all corresponding events must be reported to the central station.
These include test events, walk test events, as well as activated zone list. If set
to No, only a walk test result event is sent.
Note: If the reporting has been inhibited during installer logging in, the walk test
reporting is disabled as well. See “Accessing the installer programming menu” on
page 37 for more details.
Next, you are prompted to choose between total and reduced walk test.
The following options are available:
• Total: Standard walk test. All appropriate zones are tested.
• Reduced: Reduced walk test. This test is limited only zones that were not
active recently, during last 4 hours, or since the last set.
Note: The time period is programmed in “1.2.5.2.9 Reduced walk” on page
53.
Choose a walk test scope and press Enter.
The Walk test start command starts the engineer walk test for zones that have
the engineer walk test option enabled (see “4.1.n.6.10 Engineer walk test” on
page 99).
The tested areas need to be unset.
Note: If zones that generate alarms regardless to the area state, for example,
24H type, are included in the walk test, they are suspended during the test, and
do not cause an alarm. However, their activation is reported even if reporting is
disabled during test start.
While the test is running, the list of untested zones scrolls automatically. The
LCD displays a zone and the condition that must be achieved. For example, the
screen below shows that zone 1 should be activated.
Zones disappear from the displayed list as they are tested.
