TROUBLESHOOTING

If the system does not arm:

l

Check that the selector switch on

the Console is in the RUN 1 or

RUN 2 position.

l

Check that the battery indicator on
the Remote Control turns on when
you press [ARM]. Replace the bat-
tery and re-install the Remote Con-
trol if necessary.

If a zone indicator flashes slowly:

One of the sensors/motion detectors

has not reported in, in the past 4 hours.

Check that the battery in the sensor/

motion detector is good.

If you need to arm the system and

want to ignore a sensor/motion detec-
tor which is not functioning:

1.

2.

Press [ARM] on the Remote Con-
trol. You hear a repetitive trouble
alarm to alert you that there is a
problem.

While the trouble alarm is sound-
ing, press [BYPASS] on the Con-
sole. The zone indicator flashes
rapidly.

Then press [ARM] on the Remote

Control. The problem zone is not
protected but all the other zones are
armed.

Note: If you Bypass an open window
and arm the system (as described

above) and then later close the win-
dow, that zone will now arm and its

indicator will stop flashing.

If a zone indicator flashes rapidly:

You pressed the Bypass button to arm
the system while a sensor/motion de-
tector was reporting a problem. Deter-
mine the cause of the problem with the
sensor/motion detector to arm that

zone.

If you hear a repetitive trouble

alarm when you try to arm the sys-

tem, and it does not arm:

Check the zone indicators. If a door or

window is open, its zone indictor is

on. If there is a problem with a Sensor
or Motion Detector, its zone indicator

flashes slowly. Either:

l

Press [DISARM]. Check that each

Door/Window Sensor is working

properly and that you have not left

a door or window open. Then arm

the system. Or:

l

While the trouble alarm is sound-

ing, press [BYPASS] to over-ride
the problem zone (its zone indica-
tor then flashes rapidly). Then arm
the system.

If the alarm trips when you enter

the house before you have time to

disarm it:

Arm the system in the delay mode.

To do this: Set the MIN/MAX switch
on the entry door sensor to MAX. Set

the MIN/MAX switch on the Remote

Control to MAX (HT544 and SH624
only) and then, press [ARM].
