7.14.3 Battery/Sounder Test
If a power failure occurs, your control panel has a built-in battery that will continue to power the control panel for several hours. The control
panel automatically recharges the battery when power is restored. In addition to an automatic battery test performed every 2 minutes, the
battery may also be tested manually. This test also uses the battery to manually activate all the system sounders for 2 seconds ([#] [8] [5]
only). If the battery voltage is low, a battery fault will occur (see Error Display).

7.14.2 Fire Walk Test
The Fire Walk Test is used to confirm that Smoke detectors will report alarms to the keypads. The Fire Walk Test tests all fire zones,
including verified fire and waterflow. At the start of the Fire Walk Test a Fire Walk Test report, if programmed, is sent to the central station.
Fire alarm reports are not sent to the central station during the Fire Walk Test. A Fire Walk Test restoral is sent upon completion of the Fire
Walk Test. The Fire Walk Test is enabled for 20 minutes once it is started. The test time is extended to 20 minutes every time another zone
is tested. When a fire zone is tested, any output programmed to follow that zone will activate for 5 seconds.
