Q.Why does one of my Zones continually flash?
A.This can be caused by 1 of 2 conditions. First condition, if it is a rapid flash it means a Sensor in the Zone has a low battery. If more than one Sensor is in a Zone, you will need to test each Sensor by putting the unit into test mode (see pg. 9 of this manual). It may also be that a Sensor is out of range and cannot make contact with the Control Center. If this is the case, you may need to move the Control Center closer or use a Signal Repeater. The second condition, if it is a slow flash, one of the Sensors is triggered. Check to ensure the Sensors in the Zone are closed/reset (i.e. close door, window, etc).
Q.If one Sensor has a low battery, should I replace all of the batteries?
A.If Sensors were added at the same time, chances are good all the batteries will need to be replaced.
Q.How do I know if any Sensors have low batteries?
A.The Control Center will indicate if any Sensor does not have sufficient power to transmit a status signal (battery is low). You can also check each Sensor independently by using the Test Mode (see pg.9 in manual).
Q.If one Sensor has a low battery, will the other Sensors in the Zone (or other Zones) continue to operate?
A.Yes, as long as the other Sensors have sufficient battery power, they will continue to transmit information to the Control Center and the system will operate normally.
