Troubleshooting

If you hear a repetitive trouble alarm
when you try to arm the system, and it
does not arm.

Check the zone indicators. If a door or
window is open, its zone indicator is on.
If there is a problem with a Sensor or
Motion Detector, its zone indicator
flashes slowly. Either:

• Press DISARM. Check each Door/

Window Sensor is working properly
and that no doors or windows are
open. Then arm the system.

Or:

• While the trouble alarm is sounding,

press BYPASS to override the
problem zone (its zone indicator then
flashes rapidly). Then arm the system
again.

If the alarm trips when you enter the
house before you have time to disarm it.

Arm the system in the delay mode.

To do this: Set the MIN/MAX switch on
the entrance Door/Window Sensor to
MAX and the Handheld Remote to MAX
and then press ARM.

• Be sure you set House and Unit

Codes on the module(s) to the same
letter and number as set on the
Console.

• Be sure the light you are trying to

control has its on/off switch in the on
position. Be sure its bulb is good.

• Plug the module into another outlet

near the Console.

• Check that the battery indicator on the

Remote comes on when you press a
button.  Replace battery and reinstall
remote if necessary.

Lights will not turn on or off from the
LIGHT ON or LIGHT OFF buttons on the
Remote.

PROBLEM

SOLUTION

Troubleshooting

• Check that the Console's slide switch

is set to RUN1 or RUN2.

• Check that the battery indicator on the

Remote turns on when you press
ARM. Replace the battery and
reinstall the Remote if necessary.

If the system does not arm.

If a zone indicator flashes slowly.

One of the sensors/motion detectors has
not reported in, in the last 4 hours.

Check that the battery in the sensor/
motion detector is good.

If you need to arm the system and want
to ignore a sensor/motion detector which
is not functioning:

1. Press ARM on the Remote control.

You hear a repetitive trouble alarm to
alert you that there is a problem.

2. While the trouble alarm is sounding,

press BYPASS on the Console. The
zone indicator flashes rapidly.

Then press ARM on the Remote. The
problem zone is not protected but all
other zones are armed.

Note: if you bypass an open window and
arm the system (as described above)
and later close the window, that zone will
now arm and its zone light will stop
flashing.

The BYPASS button was pressed to arm
the system while a sensor/motion
detector was reporting a problem

If a zone indicator flashes rapidly.
