Wireless Device Low Battery Trouble Transmission Delay
When a device reports a low battery trouble, the keypad will indicate the trouble
immediately, but the panel will delay transmission of the trouble to the monitoring
station. You can program the length of the delay (in days) in Installer ’s
programming. If the user does not correct the low battery condition before the
delay expires, the low battery trouble will be transmitted.
The low battery alarm and restore codes will only be reported once per armed
period. The Low Battery Restore transmission is not delayed. The default
transmission delay is 7 days.
To change the transmission delay:
1. At a LCD keypad, enter [*][8][Installer’s code].
2. Enter Ref #[00040211] to go to the 4164 Low Bat Dly section.
3. Enter the new transmission delay (from 000 to 255 days).
4. To exit, press [#].
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
PC4164-RS. The battery trouble is now clear.
NOTE
: When batteries in one device need to be replaced, the batteries in all devices
should be replaced at the same time.
NOTE
: WLS908 Wireless Panic Pendants contain no user-serviceable parts. When the
device exhibits a low battery condition, the unit must be replaced.
