To perform a phone communication test:

1. Disarm the system.

2. Press 8 + System or Partition Master CODE + 2.

touchpads display, “PHONE TEST” or “System Armed to PHONE TEST.”

3. If the phone test is successful:

systems with the optional voice feature will announce, “Report OK.”

 

Within a few minutes, the touchpad display should return to the Level 1 display. If it does not

 

return in three minutes, note how long before the Level 1 display returns and contact the installer.

 

After the test has started, the arming level can be changed to 1—Off, then to 2—Stay or 3—

 

AWAY, if you wish.

Troubleshooting

Your security system uses a variety of different alarm sirens, status beeps, voice messages and

 

trouble beeps to communicate with you. The next few pages describe the different sounds and

 

what they mean. Try to familiarize yourself with the differences. You will hear sounds each time

 

you tell your security system to do something, like arm or disarm. Some sounds you will hear

 

only when there is a problem with the system, like a low battery. There are also sounds you will

 

only hear in an emergency. Getting to know your system sounds allows you to react quickly and

 

appropriately to the messages you hear.

 

Trouble Beeps and Trouble Messages

 

When your system detects a problem, it lets you know by sounding trouble beeps from system

 

touchpads and sirens, and by displaying trouble signals as messages on touchpads.

 

Trouble beeps are a series of five short beeps once a minute.

 

The table on the next page lists the causes of trouble beeps, the visual display you can expect to

 

see, and possible solutions for the trouble condition.

 

Silencing Trouble Beeps

 

If possible, correct the situation which is causing the trouble beeps. If this is not possible, call for

 

service. If the problem is not corrected, trouble beeps and messages start again 4 or 10 hours

 

later.

 

Your security system also has a feature that will prevent trouble beeps from starting during nor-

 

mal sleeping hours. This “sleep time” period is normally set from 10 pm to 8 am. Contact your

 

installer if you wish to verify or change this setting.

To silence trouble beeps:

1.Perform a system status check by pressing * on a touchpad,

2.Change the arming level.

The table on the next page describes the conditions under which trouble beeps occur and when they begin. (These sounds are heard from interior sirens and touchpads if available.)
