Automatic Control Panel Testing--What the
System Tests for You
Your security system is able to automatically test itself for:
• Power failures
• Low batteries
• Non-working sensors
• Communication troubles with the Central Monitoring Sta-
tion
Trouble Beeps.
When your security system detects one
of the problems above, interior sirens sound trouble beeps
rapidly six times, and then again every minute, until the trouble
condition is corrected.
If you do a status check by pressing the SYSTEM STATUS
button twice or change the system from being armed to dis-
armed or disarmed to armed, the beeps will stop. If the prob-
lem is not corrected, beeps start again 4 hours later.
AC Power Failure.
This condition occurs if your security
system has been accidentally unplugged or if there has been
an AC power outage. The backup battery will take over. If AC
power is not restored within 15 seconds, the Control Panel will
go dark and alert you with trouble beeps. If you press any but-
ton, the display will light and pressing SYSTEM STATUS
twice will confirm the AC power failure. If AC power is not re-
stored within 15 minutes, the system will call the central mon-
itoring station (if programmed by installer). The backup
battery, if fully charged, will last for 18 - 24 hours with no AC
power.
System Battery Failure.
This condition occurs if the
emergency backup battery has been drained. Trouble beeps
will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the
SYSTEM STATUS button twice to hear the trouble message.
If your AC power is not working, your security system will shut
down once the battery is drained. The Control Panel battery
should be replaced once a year if using a 9V Ultralife battery.
Sensor Failure.
This condition occurs if a sensor is not
communicating with the Control Panel. Trouble beeps will
start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the
SYSTEM STATUS button twice to hear which sensor(s) have
trouble. Perform sensor tests. It may be necessary for you to
call your security system dealer if the problem continues.
Sensor Low Battery.
This condition occurs if a system
sensor has a low battery. The sensor may still be communicat-
ing with the Control Panel. Trouble beeps will start and the
SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STA-
TUS button twice to hear which sensor(s) have trouble. It may
be necessary for you to call your security system dealer to re-
solve this problem. Some sensor batteries can be replaced by
the homeowner.
Fail-To-Communicate.
This condition occurs if your se-
curity system cannot communicate to the central monitoring
station. Your system will try to report to the central monitoring
station 8 times before it tells you there is a Fail-To-Communi-
cate problem. Trouble beeps will start and the SYSTEM STA-
TUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button
twice to hear the trouble message. It may be necessary for
you to call your security system dealer if the problem contin-
ues.
Sensor Open.
This condition occurs if a door or window is
open, or a system sensor has been disturbed or tampered and
not reset properly. For example, a Motion Sensor may be off
the wall or a Door/Window Sensor cover may have been re-
moved from the sensor. Your system will indicate this condi-
tion to you by causing the SYSTEM STATUS button to light.
When you press this button twice, the system responds with
Sensor # Name open. Correct the problem by resetting the
sensor. If this condition continues call your security system
dealer
Option 50 Detected.
The Control Panel receiver may
be experiencing some interference. The system will call to no-
tify the central monitoring station about this problem.
Module 1 or 2 Failure.
Call your security system deal-
er.
System Access Alarm.
The Control Panel cover was
opened while the system was armed. The system will call the
central monitoring station to report a tamper alarm.
Silencing Trouble Beeps
Pressing the SYSTEM STATUS button twice or
changing from armed to disarmed or disarmed to
armed while the system has a trouble condition
stops the trouble beeps. Trouble beeps begin again
4 hours later, in some cases, unless the trouble
condition is corrected.
Clearing System Status
If a trouble condition is corrected, press the SYSTEM
STATUS button twice, listen to the status message, then
disarm the system to clear system status. If the trouble
condition was a low CPU battery, perform a sensor test.
The SYSTEM STATUS button should turn off if all trou-
ble conditions have been corrected.
