System Status Reports
A System status report is provided automatically following phone
access to the system. System status is also reported through an
optional warning speaker by pressing
✴
✴
on the installer designated
security keypad(s). The system status report includes the following:
•
Alarm warning sounds (if any). Not provided in some systems.
•
Fire alarms (if any).
•
Burglary and other alarms (if any).
•
Checks (if any).
•
Power status (an AC power loss or low battery condition exists).
•
Arming status (plus Bypasses, if any).
•
Remote access (only when Off).
•
Chime sounds (if chime mode is on and door or window is opened).
Not provided in some systems.
•
Zone faults (if any). If not annunciated in your system, press
✴
key to hear zones that are faulted.
Note: Silent (panic) alarms will be annunciated as faults.
There is a 1-second pause between each individual status report. A
system command may be entered during these pauses, or immediately
following the end of the report.
Alarm Warning Sounds
If a Fire or Burglary alarm is in progress (or in alarm memory), the
status report will commence with a short burst of either a Fire alarm
sound ("bell" sound), or Burglary sound (2-tone siren sound).
Note: Alarm warning sounds may not be provided over the
phone with your particular system.
Fire Alarm
The word “FIRE” will then be annunciated, followed by a zone
description* (for instance, “UPSTAIRS BEDROOM”) and a 2-digit
zone number (zones below 10 will be annunciated with a leading zero).
*
If programmed by your installer.
