Wireless Maintenance Reporting Codes
The following reporting codes are sent to report a Low Battery condition on the system. Individual zones
are not described using the Pulse formats however the individual zones will be logged to the event
buffer. SIA and Contact I.D. formats will identify the zone with the condition.
General Zone Low Battery Alarm and Restore Codes
A low battery alarm occurs when the system component’s battery voltage supply drops below 3.3 (3.5)
Volts. A zone trouble will be displayed immediately but the transmission may be delayed (see Section
[370]). A low battery restoral may only take place after the alarm sensing device has been tampered and
the batteries have been changed. These reporting codes are transmitted to the System Maintenance
Call Direction group.

Reporting Codes
For the programmable reporting codes, if the reporting code contains the data FF, the communicator will
automatically construct the default reporting code to be sent for the SIA format (please see Appendix A). If the
reporting code contains the data 00, the event is disabled and not transmitted. If the reporting code contains any
other data between 01 and FE, this is sent as the reporting code (also see option SIA Transmits Automatic or
Programmed Reporting codes).
Appendix A has all identifiers and the automatically constructed reporting codes.
Note: XX represents the Zone/User Number.
00 represents a System Event which is not specific to a zone or user number.
