3. Reviewing events and alarm memory
Alarm and tamper memory history
The PowerMaster-360 retains in its memory alarm and “tamper” events that occurred during the last arming
period.
Note:
Alarm events are memorized only after the “abort period” (see Appendix C). This means that if you disarm
the system immediately - before the abort period expires - there will be no memory indication
A. Indication of alarm and tamper condition
If the system is disarmed following an alarm event, a flashing
MEMORY
message will be displayed, as follows:
READY HH:MM
(alternating)
READY MEMORY
B. Displaying alarm and tamper information
To review memory content, click
button.
EXAMPLE: An alarm was triggered because the garage door - zone No. 12 – was opened
but then closed
. In
addition, the bedroom motion detector - zone No. 7 - sent a “Tamper” message because its cover had been
removed.

READY HH:MM
In response to additional clicking of the
button, the display shows details of other events retained in
open tamper (if any), or reverts to its initial state (see A above).
If the system is NOT READY, the display will first read the open zones and then alarm memory events.
Clearing the memory history
To clear the ‘Memory’ history you must first review the cause of alarm as described above. After you return to
the ‘Ready’ screen simply press Away
and enter the code if requested, then press Disarm
followed by the code. The memory message is now cleared. Otherwise the memory indication and content are
cleared when the system is next armed.
Problems with enrolled devices
A. Indication that a trouble condition (TRBL) is detected by the system
If the system detected a problem with any of the enrolled devices, the problem indicator on the Virtual Keypad
illuminates, 3 beeps are sounded via the Virtual Keypad once per minute and a flashing
TRBL
message is
displayed, as follows.
READY HH:MM
NOT READY HH:MM
(alternating)
(alternating)
READY TRBL
NOT READY TRBL
or, if the system is not ready for arming
B. Displaying problems
All TRBL messages need to be reviewed and corrected as described below:
EXAMPLE: The kitchen device - zone No. 9 - has reported a low battery – the living room device zone No. 15 -
has been inactive, and an attempt to communicate a message to your telephone has failed. However, these
troubles do not prevent the system from being “ready to arm”.
