Zone Faults During Arming
Before attempting to arm the system, ensure that the premises are secure (all doors and windows closed etc.) and the Ready light is
on.
If an attempt is made to arm the system with any zones active (e.g. door ajar, open window, etc.) the internal sounders will bleep
repeatedly (fault tone) and the display will show the zones that are active.
The fault tone will stop and the exit tone will resume when all zones are secure. If it is necessary to leave a zone open then it must be
omitted (see page 7 for details).
If an active zone cannot be secured then it may be 'in fault', in this case contact the alarm company immediately.
Arm Fail - Failing to Arm
If the exit procedure is started and zones are still 'Active' at the end of the exit procedure, an Internal alarm will occur (internal sounders only)
and the strobe light on the external sounder will flash.
If this occurs the arm fail must be cleared and the zone in fault identified before the system can be armed (see page 4 for details on clearing an Arm Fail).
The Ready LED
To help prevent faults during arming a Ready light has been provided, see table above for details on how the Ready LED operates.
