3-2.5.2.5.3 How to Run a Silent Walk Test
Purpose: To suspend normal system operation for functional testing of
one or more SmartOne initiating devices.
The ARIES Control Unit will operate identically as described in
Paragraph 3-2.5.2.5.2 when in a silent walk-test mode, except that it
will not energize the outputs programmed for walk-test activation.
CAUTION
Physically disconnect the wiring to all agent-release and pre-action-sprinkler
circuits before walk testing any SLC initiating devices. Restore the system to
normal operating condition at the conclusion of these tests and any other
functional tests that were performed.
