diagnostics
The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is constantly
monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are connected to it. It
detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from dis-
abling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report
any triggers that occurred during your absence.
arming diagnostics
If the system is armed while an input is active (sensor triggering, etc.)
the unit will chirp once when arming and then once more five seconds
later. This is called Bypass Notification. Refer to the
Arm/Disarm Diagnostic
Chart
for bypass notification details.
You are able to see exactly which zone is causing the bypass notification by
disarming the system and turning the ignition on. The zone will be report-
ed by flashing the active zone 5-times. See the Table Of Zones.
The security system will ignore the input that was active when the sys-
tem was armed, until the input goes away. 3-seconds later the system
will monitor that input normally. For example, if the protective switch
is active, you will hear one Bypass Notification chirp (the protective
switch is bypassed from the alarm system). Once the protective switch
is reset, then 3-seconds later the system resumes normal monitoring of
this switch.
