Testing Monitored Sensors
(Performing a Walk Test)
A
Walk Test
allows you to test specific
sensors (points) in the system, to ensure that
they are functioning correctly.
A walk test can be done by users with "System Test"
authority.
A walk test must be completed within 15 minutes.
Emergency points (i.e. smoke, fire alarm, panic, etc.)
on a Monitored system display as Armed and should
not
be tested during a Walk Test. The monitoring
station must be contacted if these points are to be
tested. When tested successfully, Emergency points
will indicate PASS and Armed will change to Alarm.
"Pass" indicates that a point is functioning correctly
(i.e. the sensor is operating properly), while "Fail"
indicates that a problem may exist with that point or
that the point was not tripped.
All points except Emergency points may be
bypassed during the Review for convenience, but
arming the system with a bypass reduces system
security.
