Replacing Panel Backup Batteries
Your panel uses six NiCd or alkaline backup batteries in case of an AC power failure. The
actual length of time the panel will operate on backup batteries depends on your backup
power time setting, the type of batteries used, and the condition of the batteries. The
default setting for backup power is 5 hours and may be changed by your security consult-
ant.
Test your backup batteries weekly by checking the system status, as described in the sec-
tion "Required System Tests" on page 39. If the panel announces,
System battery failure
when you check system status, replace your batteries.
