Problem
Cause
Solution
1.
False
high
sound
alarms
occur
frequently.
2.
High
sound
does
not
cause
an
alarm.
The
programmed
sound
sensitivity
results
in
over-sensitivity
to
non-alarm
sound
as
well
as
alarm
sound.
Sound
Recognition
Time
is
too
short.
The
unit
is
not
close
enough
to
the
high
sound
source,
or
the
programmed
sound
setting
results
in
a
lack
of
sensitivity
to
high
sound.
Reprogram
the
sound
sensitivity.
Refer
to
Chapter
5,
Section
5.10.
Lengthen
the
sound
Recognition
Time.
Refer
to
Chapter
5,
Section
5.10.
Move
the
unit
closer
or
reprogram
the
sound
sensitivity. Refer
to
Chapter
5,
Section
5.10.
Sound
Level
Monitoring:
5.
False
high
temperature
alarms
from
freezer.
6.
The
Sensaphone
calls
with
a
high/
low
temperature
alarm
but
recites
a
temperature
that’s
within
the
programmed
limits.
Most
freezers
have
a
defrost
cycle
during
which
the
temperature
will
rise
considerably,
thus
causing
an
alarm
to
occur. The
Sensaphone
recites
the
“current”
temperature
when
it
calls
you,
not
the
temperature
at
the
time
the
alarm
occurred.
It
is
likely
that
the
temperature
has
changed
since
the
time
the
alarm
was
detected
and
has
since
returned
to
normal
operating
conditions.
Program
an
zone
recognition
time
longer
than
the
defrost
cycle.
Shorten
the
Call
Delay
or
lengthen
the
Zone
Recognition Time.
