6.1 Trouble Conditions
The control panel always watches for possible trouble conditions. If a trouble
condition occurs, the keypad “Trouble” light will turn on and the keypad will
beep. Press [
✱
][2] to display the trouble conditions.
The following trouble conditions apply to the PC5132-RS and/or any
enrolled devices. For a description of all troubles, please see your system
Installation Manual.
• General System Tamper
• Zone Fault
• General System Supervisory
• Device Low Battery
• Zone Tamper
Wireless Zone Low Battery Transmission
Within the supervisory transmission, the device will indicate the status of the
battery. If a battery is low, the system will indicate a Device Low Battery trouble.
NOTE: Since the WLS908 does not send supervisory transmissions, a low
battery on this device will not cause a Device Low Battery trouble. The user
should be instructed to test this device every week. See section 5.4 for testing
instructions.
The system will delay reporting the event to the central station for the number
of days programmed for
Zone Low Battery Transmission Delay
in section
[370]. This will prevent unnecessary reporting of the event if the user has been
instructed on how to replace batteries.
Replacing Batteries in Wireless Devices
1
Remove the cover of the device from its back plate. This creates a
tamper condition on the zone.
2
Refer to the battery installation instructions on the installation sheet of
each component. Be sure to
note
the proper orientation of the batteries
as you install them.
3
When the fresh batteries are in place, re-attach the cover to the back
plate. The tamper is restored and the zone sends a battery trouble
restoral signal to the PC5132-RS. The battery trouble is now clear and the
device should function normally.
NOTE: When batteries in one device need to be replaced, the batteries in all
devices should be replaced at the same time.
