Additional Notes
6.1 Trouble Conditions
The control panel always watches for possible trouble conditions. If a trouble
condition occurs, the keypad “Trouble” light will turn on and the keypad will beep.
Press [✱][2] to display the trouble conditions.
The following trouble conditions apply to the PC5132 and/or any enrolled devices.
General System Tamper - This trouble is generated when the PC5132 plastic
cover is removed and/or if there is a jamming condition present.
General System Supervisory - This trouble will be indicated if the panel loses
communication with any module connected to the Keybus. The event buffer will
log a detailed description of the event.
Device Low Battery - This trouble is generated when a wireless device exhibits a
low battery condition. Press [7] one, two, or three times to view which devices
are experiencing battery failure. An LED keypad will indicate battery failure
using zone lights 1 to 8.
Zone Tamper - This trouble is generated when an enrolled wireless device is
removed from its mounting location.
Zone Fault -
Each wireless zone will send a supervisory signal every 64
minutes. If the receiver does not receive a signal within the time
programmed for the Wireless Supervisory Window, it will generate a zone
fault.
Tamper Switches
There are two tamper switches on the PC5132 board. Removing both the plastic
cover and/or the PC5132 from its mounting location will cause a general system
tamper.
6.2 Jamming Signal Detection
The PC5132 receiver detects jamming signals that can prevent the receiver from
properly receiving transmissions from enrolled devices. See section 4.4 “Jamming
Signal Detection” for information on jamming signal detection programming.
6.3 Wireless Zone Low Battery Transmission
Within any transmission, the device will indicate the status of the battery. If a battery
is low, the system will indicate a Device Low Battery trouble.
The system will delay reporting the event to the central station for the number of
days programmed for Zone Low Battery Transmission Delay in section [370].
This will prevent unnecessary reporting of the event if the user has been instructed
on how to replace batteries.
