Testing your System (continued)
This chart explains the procedure for performing a Fire Walk Test.
This test is used to confirm that Smoke detectors will report alarms to the keypads.
The Fire Walk Test tests all fire zones, including verified fire and waterflow.
At the start of the Fire Walk Test a Fire Walk Test report, if programmed, is sent to the central station.
Fire alarm reports are not sent to the central station during the Fire Walk Test.
A Fire Walk Test restoral is sent upon completion of the Fire Walk Test.
The Fire Walk Test is enabled for 20 minutes once it is started.
The test time is extended to 20 minutes every time another zone is tested.
When a fire zone is tested, any output programmed to follow that zone will activate for 5 seconds.
A Fire Walk Test will prevent the system from sending any Fire Reports during the test.
