Zones 1–8

•Steady On — door or window is open.

•Steady Off — door or window is closed.

•Slow Flashing — wireless sensor transmitter is reporting a problem (such as a low battery).

•Fast Flashing — wireless sensor transmitter reported a problem (such as an open window or a low battery) and you pressed BYPASS on the console (see “Trouble Alarm”).

Trouble Alarm

If you hear a repetitive trouble alarm when you try to arm the system, this in- dicates that there is a problem.

The system does not arm until you:

•Correct the Problem — Press DISARM to stop the trouble alarm. Check the zone reporting the problem to see if a door or window is open or a sensor’s battery is dead. Then arm the system again.

•Ignore the Problem — Press BYPASS on the console while the trouble alarm is sounding.

The indicator(s) for the problem zone(s) flash rapidly. Press ARM HOME/ARM AWAY to arm the sys- tem. The problem zone(s) are not protected, but all other zones arm

Note: If you bypass an open window or door and arm the system, then later close the window or door, that zone then arms.

Reading the Status of

Zones 9–16

If there is a problem with zones 9–16, the console does not show a flashing zone light, but you hear the trouble alarm if you try to arm the system.

Hold down BYPASS on the console. The indicator lights show which zone (9–16) is reporting the problem. If you do not want to bypass the problem, correct it and arm the system again.
