Check with the Central Station that each zone
(sensor type) was reported, then inform the
Central Station that the testing is complete.
WALK TEST MODE
Walk Test Mode is for testing all the sensors. It
verifies that each sensor is being received correctly
by the Control Panel. The walk test also tests the
Control Panel's indicators and sounder.
The Walk Test Mode will automatically
NOTE:
end after 25 minutes.
Signal Strength Indicators
An important feature is the received signal strength
indicators displayed by the Control Panel for each
of the sensors. Even though the Control Panel's RF
receiver is high‐sensitivity, reception quality of
sensors at the Control Panel can vary over time,
depending on the amount of background RF noise
on the receiver's operating frequency. The signal
strength indicators are an important aid to the
installer for determining the best location to mount
the sensors and Control Panel.
During the walk test, the Control Panel displays the
signal strength of the RF transmissions received
from each of the sensors. This helps to identify any
sensors with a weak signal at the Control Panel.

Re‐mount sensors with low signal strength to a
location that produces stronger reception at
the Control Panel. The higher the sensor signal
strength, the better.
During the test, the system will beep every 30
seconds to indicate that the system is in Walk Test
Mode. During the last 5 minutes of the test, the
system will beep two times every 30 seconds.
Entering the Walk Test Mode sends a
NOTE:
"start test" report to the Central Station.
Exiting the Walk Test Mode sends a "stop
test" report to the Central Station.
To perform a walk test, do the following:
From the Installer Toolbox screen, press Walk
1
Test.

The
icon displays on the Control Panel
Status Bar and a beep will sound every 30
seconds to indicate that the system is in Walk
Test Mode.

Each of the sensors and their status are shown
on the on the sensor test screen. Use the ↓
and ↑ arrows to scroll through the sensor list.

Activate the first sensor listed and view the
result on the display:
•
When a sensor is received by the Control
Panel, three beeps occur and the display lights
a green bar to the left of the sensor's name.
•
The received signal strength of the sensor
displays as one to five green bars. The more
bars, the higher the signal strength.
•
If the signal level is sufficient, a check mark
displays for that sensor.
•
If the signal level is insufficient or the signal
test fails, the display lights a red bar, and an
"x" displays for that sensor.
•
For sensors with multiple loops, wait 15
seconds between triggering each loop.
Continue testing with each of the other
5
sensors listed.
After all the sensors have been tested, press
OK to test the Control Panel's indicators and
sounder.
