"Warm Bulb Checks" while the lights are powered on, the hot monitoring measures the individual power outputs, to assist in detection of any short and open circuits. A faulty incandescent bulb is detected within approx. 2 seconds.

For the record, LEDs are not cold-monitored, as LEDs react too quickly and would light up or strobe, when powered off.
For the record, LEDs are not warn-monitored in that way due to flickering and brightness issues in supplying extra voltage to an illuminated bulb. Other than myself claiming that, the documentation you linked explained that, as well as the "electrical expert" that was replying here.
