Performing a Walk Test

In order to ensure the Olarm FlipX is working exactly the way you want it to. Perform a walk test which helps you check the detector’s coverage to make sure it's detecting movement in the right places.

To start the Walk Test:

  • Open and close the detector front cover
  • Initiate the walk test in device settings in-app
  • The red LED will flash twice to indicate walk test mode
  • 3 minutes duration before returning to normal operation

What to do for a Walk Test:

  • Walk slowly across the detection area 
  • Watch for LED flash to indicate successful detection
  • Try walking in different spots: left, right, closer, farther away
  • Make sure your most important areas are covered
  • If the LED does not flash, adjust as necessary
