eight times before it tells you there is a fail-to-communicate problem. Trouble

the display will show Comm Test Fail or Comm Failure. You may need to call
your security system dealer if the problem continues.
Sensor open

disturbed and not reset properly. For example, a door/window sensor magnet
may have been removed from the sensor. Your system will indicate this condition
to you by causing the STATUS button to light. When you press the STATUS
button, the display shows, for example,
Sn 1 Front Door Open . Correct the
problem by resetting the sensor. If this condition continues, call your security
system dealer.
Sensor tampered
This condition occurs when a sensor is physically tampered with, for example,
the cover is taken off of one of the sensors. If the system is armed an alarm will
occur. Your system will indicate this condition to you by causing the STATUS
button to light. Trouble beeps will start. Press the STATUS button and the display
shows Sn # Name Tampered. Correct the problem by resetting the sensor. If this
condition continues, call your security system dealer.
RF jam detected
The panel receiver may be experiencing some interference. The system will call

Clearing status
Some types of status conditions, such as the alarm history, must be cleared
manually. To clear system status, press the STATUS button, read and/or listen to
the status messages, then press DISARM. If the trouble condition was a low
system battery, perform a sensor test. The STATUS light should turn off if all
trouble conditions have been corrected.
