Troubleshooting and support

This section provides information to help you diagnose and solve various problems that may arise while 
configuring or using your GE Security product and offers technical support contacts in case you need 
assistance.

Troubleshooting

If the bus LED is not flashing, turn off panel AC power and verify that all wiring is correct.

Note:  

All buffered messages may be received from the two-way paging network upon restoring power to the module.

If the module status LEDs do not immediately turn on after initial power-up, you may have to wait five to eight 
minutes for the module to communicate with Alarm.com services.

If touchpads/sirens are beeping even though the system is not armed, press *, 2 to display the trouble condition. 
Refer to specific touchpad manual for details.
