– Detectors – when the battery is inserted, or if the detector is faulted.
Notice!
The Auto Learn mode option is not recommended as the preferred method of entering in the
RF ID’s due to the potential of the RADION system picking up the first available RF ID it
detects. For optimal results, manually enter in the RF ID’s through the supported keypad, or
via RPS.
For more information on enrolling RF ID’s in the control panel, refer to the Installation and
Operation manual of the compatible control panel on enrolling RF ID‘s.
3.3.6 Walk test
Use the following pattern testing procedure to test the detector range and functionality.
Motion walk test
Remove and replace cover to activate a 90-sec Walk Test Mode. During this Test Mode, any
activity in the sensor’s coverage pattern will cause a transmitted alarm and LED activation.
Each alarm will also extend the Test Mode for an additional 90-sec. Walk Testing should be
done across the coverage pattern. The edge of the coverage pattern is determined by the first
flash of the LED. This may change slightly depending upon the sensitivity setting. Walk Test
the unit from both directions to determine the pattern boundaries. Although generally not
required, if masking is desired, the lens diagram shows the appropriate areas to be masked.
Use an opaque material (such as, electrical tape) to mask the desired areas.

Final test
While the detector is in the Walk Test Mode, turn on all heating and air conditioning sources
which would normally be active during the protection period. Stand away from the sensor and
outside the coverage pattern and watch for alarms. After setup and tests are completed, and
there has been no activity in the sensor’s coverage pattern for approximately 90-sec, the LED
will flash to indicate that the Walk Test mode is ending.
Maintenance
At least once a year, a walk test should be performed to verify the range and coverage for
proper operation.
Magnet walk test
Perform a magnet test to ensure proper functionality of the door and window contacts.
Magnet testing can be performed by opening or closing the door/window in which the magnet
is installed. In this test, you are verifying the distances of which the magnet engages and
disengages the transmitter.
3.3.7 Complete the installation
Depending on the results of testing the RADION system from a system-wide approach (walk
test, signal strength and margin tests), make the appropriate modifications/adjustments to
complete the install process.
