Alarm Acknowledgments
After an alarm has been silenced by a valid user code, the display will
continue to show the alarm type and zone until a valid user code is entered a
second time. This “Acknowledgment” is designed so that the user sees what
caused the alarm after things are quieted. To reset (clear) the display the
alarm must be acknowledged using the following procedure:
To acknowledge the alarm and reset the system:
1. Enter a user code.
2. The alarm/condition will clear from the keypad display.
Troubles
There are many different types of trouble conditions that can be annunciated
by the system including the following:
Trouble Conditions
AC Power Failure
Low Backup Battery
Telephone Line Fault
Fire Alarm Trouble
Missing Keypad, Expander (Zone or Output)
Communications Fail
Troubles are annunciated by an intermittent beeping from the keypad and a
display of the Trouble condition(s). The beeping may be silenced by pressing
the asterisk * key but the trouble must be acknowledged before any other
keypad operation may continue.
Acknowledging a Trouble condition:
1. Enter a user code.
2. Until the trouble condition is resolved, the keypad will momentarily
flash the condition along with the normal keypad information. If a
new Trouble should occur, the keypad beeping will resume.
