WHAT TO DO IN THE EVENT OF AN ALARM.
A properly installed electric fence should not cause false alarms and any alarm
condition should be investigated.
An alarm condition must be cleared on the Master Keypad. This can be done
by using a specific Energizer On/Off command for the energizer with the
alarm condition or a global On/Off command. If the alarm condition is still
present on turn On the alarm on the Master will sound again.
•
Turn the energizer(s) Off and On again at the Master. The Specific
Command is preferable.
•
If the alarm does not sound again the alarm condition no longer exists
and no further action is required. If the alarm sounds immediately
again the alarm condition still persists. Switch the specific slave off and
remedy the cause.
Go to the specific energizer and bypass the particular cause of alarm and
remedy when possible. Note that the Master keypad does not function when
plugged into a slave energizer.
Example:
A six zone system comprising of a Master and Two Slaves. A
permanent fence fault occurs on Zone 1 of the second slave because a tree
was blown over and has damaged the fence. This would be displayed by a
flashing both
FENCE
and
5
indicators on the Master keypad with siren and
buzzer activated on both the Master and Slave. Using the specific energizer
On/Off command:
Master PIN*03# i.e. turn energizer 3 (slave 2) OFF.
Master PIN*03# i.e. turn energizer 3 (slave 2) On again.
Because the fence fault persists the alarm will sound again.
Either fix the fence, with the energizer turned off, or go to the energizer and
bypass Fence Zone 1 by entering -Slave Master PIN*11# and repair the fence
at a later stage. Note the Slave Master PIN may or may not be identical to the
Master PIN depending on the installer programming the system. After the
repair turn the Slave back on either at the Slave or at the Master.
Global resets are possible without turning the Energizers Off in the system.
