Troubleshooting

Your security system uses a variety of different alarm sirens, status beeps, and
trouble beeps to communicate with you. The next few pages describe the
different sounds and what they mean. Try to familiarize yourself with the
differences. You will hear some sounds each time you tell your security system to
do something, like arm or disarm. Some sounds you will hear only when there is
a problem with the system, like a low battery. Other sounds you will only hear in
an emergency. Getting to know your system sounds allows you to react quickly
and appropriately.

Trouble Beeps and Trouble Messages

Trouble beeps are a series of five short beeps, once a minute. When your
system detects a problem, it lets you know by sounding trouble beeps from
touchpads and sirens, and by trouble messages on touchpad displays.

Table 2 lists the causes of trouble beeps, the visual display you can expect to
see, and possible solutions for the trouble condition.
