SYSTEM TROUBLE ERROR CODES

Your ADT Safewatch EZ System is constantly monitoring its own components, as well as all critical services, such as AC power and the telephone line, to insure that it is always ready to provide the protection for which it was designed. When a system trouble occurs, the EZ Touchpad will caution you with a Trouble TBL light and a beeping sounder.

If you cannot immediately fix the trouble, the system can still be used. Simply press SILENCE to view the trouble as described below and press SILENCE again to exit the VIEW TROUBLE mode. The system can now be armed.

To view the trouble, press SILENCE, count the number of Trouble TBL and READY flashes and refer to the following table. If there is more than one trouble to view, press SILENCE again to scroll to the next trouble, and again to exit the VIEW TROUBLE mode. The Trouble TBL light will remain pulsing as a reminder if the trouble is still present. NOTE: If EZ Touchpad siren chirps once every 10 sec- onds, call for service.
