Performing a walk test
Master and admin users can use
Test
– Walk Test
to test detectors without
starting an alarm. Walking past motion detectors should be enough to
trigger them. If you have detectors connected to doors or windows, you will
have to open them to trigger those detectors.
During the test, if the detector is working, the control unit sounds a
confirmation tone and indicates that the detector has passed the test.
Note:
You cannot test wired HUA buttons, fire detectors, and 24-hour
zones during a walk test. The control unit will always start an alarm if you
activate those detectors.
