C.S. TRANSMIT?
0 = NO
When the Test Mode is activated, the system will sound fire bells (or any bell having a non-
zero response type programmed in the #93 Menu Mode of the Quick Start Guide) for three
seconds. The system will also send a Start of Walk-Test message to the central station, and
will light all keypad indicators and display window segments to verify that they are working
properly. The keypads will then display FIRE WALK-TEST IN PROGRESS and will sound a
single beep every 15 seconds while this test is active.
The system will build a list of all the fire zones (response types 9, 16, 17, 18) that need to be
tested. These points will be scrolled on the display. For each point, the keypad will display
UNTST XXX, where XXX is the point number, followed by an alpha descriptor for the point.
If the auto-test option has been selected, the control panel will attempt to automatically test
all of the polling loop points that have a zone response type of 9 or 16. For points that must
be manually tested, fault and reset each fire alarm sensor in turn. Each action should cause
keypads to beep and fire bells to ding. The keypads will display the zone number and the
associated alpha descriptor while the zone remains faulted. The system automatically issues
a smoke detector power reset about 10 seconds after it finds a fault on one of these zones, to
allow faulted detectors to be reset.
To end the test, enter any security code and press [OFF]. An End of Walk-Test message will
be sent to the central station (if programmed). Note that the test will automatically end if no
faults are detected within a 60-minute time period.

Burglary Walk-Test (Code + TEST [5])

This test causes the system to sound keypad beeps in response to faults on burglary and non-
fire related 24-hour zones for the purpose of allowing proper zone operation to be checked
without triggering alarms. Note that the system will not trigger alarms for burglary and
non-fire related 24-hour zones, but will trigger fire alarms while this test is active. This test
can only be activated by the installer, a master user or manager user by entering the
corresponding security code and pressing [TEST] while the burglary portion of the system is
disarmed. UL requires that this test be conducted on a weekly basis.
When this test is first activated, the system will sound burglary bells (or any bell having a
zero response type i.e., 0 = disabled in each bell's supervisory zone) for 3 seconds. The
system will send a Start of Walk-Test message to the central station. The keypads will
display BURG WALK-TEST IN PROGRESS and will sound a single beep every 15 seconds
while the test remains active.
Open and close each protected door and window in turn. Each action should produce 3 beeps
from the keypad. Walk in front of any motion detectors. Listen for three beeps when the
detector senses movement. The keypad will display the zone number and alpha descriptor
while a door or window remains open or while a detector remains activated. The system
automatically issues a Zone 8 Glassbreak Detector Power Reset about 10 seconds after it
finds a fault on this zone, to allow faulted detectors to be reset.
To end this test, enter any security code and press [OFF]. An End-of-Walk-Test message
will be sent to the central station.
Enter 1 (YES) to have the results of the test sent to the
central station. This report will consist of a list of points
1 = YES
that have been tested followed by a list of points that have
not been tested.
Enter 0 (NO) if the results of this test are not to be
reported. A Walk-Test Start and Walk-Test End report
will be sent in either case (if programmed).
