System Trouble Alerts
The system monitors itself for abnormal operating conditions and will alert you if trouble is
detected.
The system monitors these and other conditions:
• AC power to the Control Panel
• The telephone line (optional)
• The cellular telephone connection (if used)
• The Control Panel's backup battery
• The sensor's batteries
• Sensor supervisory status (if used)
• External sounder connection
• Sensor radio reception and sensor tampering (sensor's case opened) when disarmed
• Control Panel tampering (panel's case opening) when disarmed (optional).
• Communication to the Central Station
Trouble conditions can be reported to the Central Monitoring Station. Service to correct the trouble
condition should be preformed as soon as possible.
Trouble Alert Icon
If the system detects trouble, it will fl ash the trouble alert
six alert beeps every minute. Scrolling text along the top of the display also describes the trouble
condition(s) that exist.
The trouble alert
icon displays a number
in the upper right corner that is the number of
current trouble alerts.
The trouble alert
icon will fl ash until
the trouble alerts are acknowledged, then it
will light constant until all the troubles are
corrected. When all troubles are corrected, the
icon will disappear.

to display all current trouble alerts.
2. View the listed trouble events. If there
are more than three alerts, use the ↑

3. After viewing the trouble events,
press OK to acknowledge. This
will silence the alert beeps.
Nighttime Trouble Alert Holdoff
As an option, the system can be programmed by your installer to suppress the trouble alert sounder
from 10 PM to 9 AM. Any trouble alerts will still be displayed and reported (if enabled), but the
sounder will not beep. Some trouble conditions may clear automatically, other trouble conditions
may require service to correct. If the trouble condition still exists after 9 AM, the sounder will beep to
indicate trouble. Regardless of whether the trouble alert sounder is suppressed or not, every trouble
condition is always displayed on the trouble alert list and recorded in the system history event log.
