If '3' is pressed, followed by ENTER, the following is displayed:
Press '1' to perform a silent walktest with all sounding devices, control modules and the bell 1 and bell 2 outputs
OFF. Select '2' to perform an audible walktest which sounds all silenceable control modules and bells 1 and 2 (if
programmed as 'BELL_CKT' as explained in Section 3.2.03) output during walktest. (Disabled NAC outputs will not
activate during Walktest). Each alarm and trouble condition (short and open) will be printed in real time and stored
in the 500 event history buffer. After pressing either '1' or '2', the screen shown below will appear:
If ENTER is pressed, the second line goes blank, and the unit is in Walk Test mode. Walk test may be stopped at
any time by pressing Backspace, returning the unit to the main screen. A one hour time-out automatically returns
the system to normal operation.

When in Walk Test, the panel responds to each new alarm and activates its programmed control outputs for four
seconds, if those control outputs have been programmed for silenceable activation. It also stores each alarm in
the history file and printer with a "TEST XX" status label. XX is a count of the number of times a device with this
address has been tested. Note that this is a convenient way to identify two detectors that are erroneously set to
the same address. A complete Walktest will cause a TEST 02 indication for the addresses to which both devices
are set and no TEST report for the address that one of the devices should have been set to.
Note that if the system under test includes one or more enabled M302 monitor modules, the following may apply:
If the M302 monitor module is used for a supervised, 2-wire smoke zone, alarming any monitor module in the
system will result in the activation of programmed control outputs for an additional eight seconds or less. This
is caused by the temporary removal of 24 VDC resettable power from the M302. The M302 reports this loss
of power as an open condition in addition to the alarm condition.

300 Series devices as well as both main circuit board NACs are monitored for fault conditions during Walktest
Mode. When a new trouble condition occurs, it activates all control modules programmed for WALK test and Bell
Circuit 1, then shuts them off after an 8 second interval (4 seconds longer than alarms). The trouble status label is
"TEST T".
While in Walk Test, the trouble relay is on, and the System Trouble LED flashes (as in all of Program and Status
change operations). The alarm relay is not activated. The LCD displays the following:
