Typical Trouble Condition Displays

To silence the beeping sound for fault conditions, press any key.

	FAULT	Indicates that a problem exists with the zone(s) displayed, accompanied by
		rapid beeping. First, determine if the zone(s) displayed are intact and make
		them so if they are not. If the zone uses a wireless detector, check that
		changes in the room (moving furniture, televisions, etc.) are not blocking
		wireless signals from the detector. If the problem has been corrected, the
		zone descriptor(s) and FAULT should disappear from the display. If not,
		key an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) to clear the display. A fault
		condition can also indicate a wiring problem. If the “FAULT” display
		persists, notify your service company. Note that the system will not allow
		arming if a fault condition exists. To arm the system with a fault condition
		present, you must first bypass the zone(s) having the fault condition.
	FC	Indicates that a failure has occurred in the telephone communication
		portion of your system or a problem with the phone line existed when
		dialing was attempted.†

Routine Care

•Treat the components of your security system as you would any other electrical equipment. Do not slam sensor-protected doors or windows.

•Keep dust from accumulating on the keypad and all protective sensors, particularly on motion sensors and smoke detectors.

•The keypad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft cloth. Do not spray water or any other fluid on the units.
