To perform a WalkTest on the Simplex 4100ES, you must enable a specific test group from the front panel and then manually activate initiating devices. The system supports up to eight groups, allowing you to test specific areas while the rest of the building remains protected (Page 56) [1].
Press MENU and scroll using NEXT/PREV until "ENABLE WALKTEST?" is displayed, then press ENTER (Page 57) [1].
Select the desired WalkTest group (1-8) and press ENTER (Page 57) [1].
Toggle options using the keypad: Press 1 to turn the group ON. Press 2 to enable LOG if you require a silent test (Page 57) [1].
Manually activate devices starting from the lowest address. The system will pulse a code on the signals to identify the triggered device (Page 57) [1].
To verify trouble conditions, cause a fault on a device; the signals will sound steady for 4 seconds (Page 57) [1].
For IDNet and MAPNET devices, the signals pulse the channel number, pause, then pulse the device address. For example, address M1-25 will pulse once, pause, and then pulse 25 times (Page 57) [1].
Devices and signals automatically reset after testing, except for pull stations which must be manually reset (Page 57) [1].
