10.SYSTEM TROUBLE INDICATIONS
✦The
✦If the Console detects a problem with any of the supervised system sensors or with its power, it will display the appropriate trouble indication and, if monitored, report the trouble to the Central Station through the communicator (depending on communicator programming).
CONSOLE LOW BATTERY
✦The Console constantly charges and monitors the optional backup battery (if installed).
✦If the backup battery condition is abnormal, the Console's POWER light will indicate the trouble.
✴The POWER indicator normally glows when AC power is on.
✴With a charged backup battery installed, if the Console looses AC power, the POWER indicator will dim as the Console runs on the backup battery.
✴If the backup battery is low, recharging, or not installed, the POWER indicator blinks when AC power is present.
✴If the AC power is off and no backup battery is installed, the POWER indicator will be off (in this case, the system has no power and is disabled).
✦Normal battery life for the type of backup battery used in the Console is
SENSOR LOW BATTERIES
✴If the BATTERIES indicator on the Console blinks, one or more sensors have a low battery.
1.Pressfor one second to view sensor status. The sensor status indicator for any sensor with a low battery will light along with the BATTERIES indicator. Any trouble indications will follow during the fi ve second status cycle.
2.Replace the sensor's battery as described in its instructions.
3.Switch to Test Mode after replacing the sensor battery and completely test the system (see Test Mode). Switching to Test Mode clears the low battery indication.
SENSOR RADIO TROUBLE
✴When the TROUBLE indicator blinks, one or more sensors have not reported status during the eight hour status time window.
1.Pressfor one second to view sensor status. The sensor status indicator for any sensor that has not reported in will light along with the TROUBLE indicator. Any low battery indications will follow during the fi ve second status cycle.
