The Communicator has 4 on-board LED indicators. These include 1 yellow trouble LED, 1 red
Network Connection Status LED, and 2 green Signal Strength LEDs. The LED meaning is
described in this Section.
Yellow Trouble LED
This yellow LED will flash to indicate a trouble on the unit. The number of flashes indicates the
type of trouble. See the table below for the coded flashes and the conditions which will activate the
Trouble Status LED.
NOTE:
Only the highest priority trouble (2 Flashes is the highest priority trouble) is indicated.
When this trouble is restored, the next highest trouble will indicate, if present. This will continue
until all troubles have been cleared. (yellow LED is not flashing).
The following paragraphs describe the conditions associated with the trouble indicated:
Panel Supervision Trouble (2 Flashes)
This trouble will be indicated when communication between the Communicator module and the
Panel fails. If the module can not communicate with the Panel (e.g., loss of power to the panel) the
Communicator will send the ‘Panel Absent Trouble Event’ message to the central station receiver.
When communication returns, a ‘Panel Absent Restore Event’ is sent by the Communicator to the
central station receiver. The reporting codes are ET001 for Trouble and ER001 for Restore. The
panel absent event always uses the primary receiver account code when communicating to the cen-
tral station.
NOTE:
The Panel Supervision Trouble/Restore are internally generated events by the Communi-
cator. Trouble is generated if the Communicator misses 6 Polls. Trouble is restored on receipt of
first Poll from the Panel.
