Abstract
An example method of performing a valve check on a plurality of valves utilized in a wellbore servicing operation includes identifying a set of valves to be checked from the plurality of valves. The method also includes simultaneously actuating each valve in the set to transition from a first position to a second position. The method further includes for each valve in the set, recording a first response time based on the transition from the first position to the second position and determining if the first response time for the valve exceeds a first predetermined upper threshold. The method also includes presenting a display of each valve in the set and an indication whether the first response time exceeds the first predetermined upper threshold.
