Walktest; Read Status - Fire-Lite MS-9200UDLS Manual

Operating Instructions

4.22 Walktest

Walktest is a feature which allows one person to test the fire alarm system. An audible walktest
will momentarily sound the Notification Appliance Circuits in the building and store the walktest
information in a file at the panel. A silent walktest will not sound the NACs but will store the
walktest information in a file which can be viewed at the panel. Disabled NAC devices will not
activate during walktest.
Alarm/Shorted Condition
When in audible Walktest, the panel responds to each new alarm and activates its programmed
control outputs for four seconds, if those outputs have been programmed for silenceable activation.
It also stores each alarm in the walktest history file which can be sent to an optional printer. The
stored display will be the same as if the device actually activated except the colon (:) in the time
stamp is replaced with an asterisk (*).
Note that if the system under test includes one or more enabled MMF-302 monitor modules, the
following may apply:
If the MMF-302 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 MMF-302. The MMF-302 reports this loss of power as an open
condition in addition to the alarm condition.
Open Condition
Addressable devices are monitored for fault conditions during Walktest mode. When a new trouble
condition occurs, the FACP will activate all NACs and control modules programmed for Walktest
and mapped to the faulty device, then shut them off after eight seconds.
While in Walktest, the trouble relay is activated and the system Trouble LED flashes (as in all of
the Program and status change operations). The alarm relay is not activated.

4.23 Read Status

Read Status functions do not require a password. The control panel will continue to provide fire
protection while in Read Status mode. This mode can be entered while the control panel is in alarm
or trouble. If a new alarm or trouble occurs during these functions, the Read Status is exited to
prevent confusion.
Read Status Entry
When the operator presses the control panel
Pressing 1, while this screen is being displayed, will cause the control panel to enter the Read
