5. Using the defaults will display all devices with Lone Worker Protections as well as the status of the the Latest Test and the Latest Test Result.
6. Click the time stamp link in the Latest Test column to see the individual Lone Worker Protection test results.
NOTE: In this example the Latest Test Result shows that the Lone Worker Protection test failed and the breakdown of each individual test shows why. In this example, the Tilt test was unsuccessfully completed.

If a specific Lone Worker Protection is not set up the column displaying that individual option will be blank.
