G5303_2008-06H.qxd 7/9/2008 10:37 AM Page 24 ➜ Nuisance prevention® circuitry Your system has Directed’s Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC). It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc. Example If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, NPC will interpret those triggers as false alarms.
G5303_2008-06H.qxd 7/9/2008 10:37 AM Page 25 Diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It is designed to detect any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence. Refer to the System Status Chirps and Table of Zones sections of this guide for diagnostic information.
G5303_2008-06H.qxd 7/9/2008 10:37 AM Page 26 ➜ Disarming diagnostics Extra chirps that are heard when disarming the system are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming the system, then the security system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are heard when disarming the system, a zone was triggered so many times that the Nuisance Protection® Circuitry has bypassed that zone. In either case, the status LED will indicate which zone was involved (see Table of Zones section).
G5303_2008-06H.qxd 7/9/2008 10:37 AM Page 27 ➜ Table of zones A zone is represented by the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify a particular type of input. Standard input assignments are listed in the following table, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches that have been installed.
G5303_2008-06H.qxd 7/9/2008 10:37 AM Page 28 Note: Your system stores the last two triggered zones in memory. If your system has been triggered but the LED has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can still recall the last two zones that were triggered. Contact your dealer for details. Code hopping The receiver and transmitters use a mathematical formula called an algorithm to change their code each time the transmitter is used.
