Walk test
A walk test checks that doors and PIRs still report. The alarm stays unset — you are not doing a full set.
- The alarm must be unset. Close the doors and windows you will test, so each one can open cleanly.
- Press D, then enter the master manager code (or present the manager tag). On some systems a normal user code opens a shorter User Menu that still has walk test.
- Press NO until you see WALK TEST, then YES.
- Select one area only (usually A for the whole house). Press YES to test the zones in that area, or pick a single zone if it offers that.
- The display cycles through the zones still to test. Open each door, or walk in front of each PIR, until that zone drops off the list.
- When the keypad shows Walk Test Complete, you are done. Press A on a main menu title to leave.
If a zone never leaves the list, that door or PIR did not report. Try again, then tell us the zone name. A flashing ALERT light first? See unable to set.
How to open the menu: master manager menu.
