Perform walk tests
When you perform a walk test, the control panel includes only points assigned to areas within
the keypad's scope, based on the walk test type chosen. During a walk test, the points do not
process normally, and only indicate that they were tested. You can perform four different
types of walk tests on this system.
Each walk test type automatically terminates after 20 min of inactivity.
All point verification is disabled for all points during any walk test.
The control panel sends Walk Test Start and Walk Test End reports to the central station.
