Display Description Troubleshooting
0
Loop is healthy
If experiencing problems with detection, reassess DIP switch settings or call
HME* for guidance with settings.
1
Loop is in good condition
2
Loop is in moderate condition
3
Loop is approaching a critical
condition
Severe weather may exacerbate problem. Loop replacement is
recommended. Call HME* for guidance
4
Loop is close to failure Severe weather may make the loop fail. Loop replacement is necessary.
5
Loop is healthy, but connection
from the loop to the AVDB is bad
Check electrical connections to loop and to AVDB as well as any cable
splices. Call HME* if problem persists.
6
Loop is in good condition, but
connection to loop is bad
7
Loop is in moderate condition, but
connection to loop is bad
8
Loop is approaching a critical
condition, connection to loop is bad
Check electrical connections to loop and to AVDB as well as any cable
splices. Loop replacement is recommended. Call HME* for guidance.
9
Loop is close to failure connection
to loop is bad
Check electrical connections to loop and to AVDB as well as any cable
splices. Loop replacement is necessary.
C
Loop Shorted
Disconnect loop from lead-in cable outside the building and re check. If still
shorted, the cable is bad. If open (code “d”), loop replacement is indicated.
d
Loop disconnected from AVDB Check electrical connections at AVDB, loop, and any splices in the cable.
L
Loop inductance is outside of
operable range
Schedule loop replacement.
U
Loop inductance is outside of
range and connection is bad
Check all electrical connections and re test. Loop replacement may be
necessary.
F
AVDB has failed Call HME* for replacement AVDB.
b
AVDB booting
Normal to appear for a few seconds after reset. Call HME for replacement
AVDB if code persists.

SELF DIAGNOSTICS
If an abnormal condition with the loop or detector occurs, the LED display will show a number or letter (see below). Follow the
recommendations appropriate for the code that is displayed.
