Select 4 for Walk Test-with Rpt. Enter the time period you wish the NAC circuit to be active for each alarm
(06 to 180 seconds). The LCD will display “WALK TEST STOPPED” on Line 1 and “ENTER = start test”
on Line 3. By selecting this option, central station reporting will occur as normal during the walk test.
The panel generates a TEST report to the central station when the walk test begins. During a walk test, the
panel’s normal fire alarm function is completely disabled, placing the panel in a local trouble condition. All
zones respond as 1-Count zones (respond when a single detector is in alarm) during a walk test. Each alarm
initiated during the walk test will be reported and stored in the event history buffer.
3. Press ENTER to end the walk test. The system will reset. The panel will send a “TEST RESTORE” report to
the central station.
If you do not end the walk test manually within four hours, it will end automatically. If an alarm or pre-alarm
condition is occurring in the system, you will not be able to enter the walk test.
Note: the panel does not do a full 30 second reset on resettable power outputs. As soon as the device is back to
normal, the panel is ready to go to the next device.

every 24 hours until it is restored.
8.5.13 Reset Alarms
Press RESET and enter your code or rotate the key at the prompt. If an external reset switch has been installed,

IMPORTANT!
If any alarm verification zones are being used, the user will be asked if they wish to disable alarm
verification during walk test. This occurs for either walk test option.
