To perform a WalkTest on the Simplex 4010ES, you must enable a test group from the front panel and manually trigger devices. The 4010ES supports up to eight WalkTest groups, which allows you to test specific areas while the rest of the building remains protected (Page 46) [1].

  1. Press the Menu key and use Next or Previous until "ENABLE WALKTEST?" is displayed, then press Enter (Page 48) [1].

  2. Scroll to the desired WalkTest group and press Enter (Page 48) [1].

  3. Configure the test options by pressing the corresponding keypad numbers:** 1** to turn the test ON, 2 to enable LOG, and 4 to select SIG for audible signals or NO for a silent test (Page 48) [1].

  4. Manually activate initiating devices using a magnet or canned smoke (Page 46) [1].

  5. Verify the signal pulses, which will code out the device address before the system automatically resets (Page 47) [1].

  6. The test will automatically abort and restore normal operation after eight hours if not manually turned off (Page 54) [1].
