Trouble Condition

AC POWER FAILURE

The panel power transformer may be unplugged or there may be an AC power outage.  If the 
transformer is plugged in, check the circuit breaker or fuse that controls that outlet.

The backup battery will take over, but if AC power is not restored within 15 minutes, the system 
will alert you and the central monitoring station (if your system is monitored).  It reports again 
when power is restored.

LOW BATT

The power in the emergency backup battery is low and must be recharged or replaced.  If AC power 
is out, the security system may shut down once the battery is below the operating level.  When AC 
power is restored, the panel will recharge the battery. If the trouble condition exists more than 24 
hours after AC power is restored, call your security dealer for service.

SENSOR SUPERVISORY There is a problem with how the sensor is communicating with the panel.  

1. Test the sensor as described in “Sensor Test.”
2. If the sensor does not test OK, call your security dealer for service.

SENSOR TROUBLE

A sensor may have an internal problem or a fire/smoke sensor may not have properly reset after 
activation, or the sensing chamber may be dirty or partially obstructed.
1. Test the sensor as described in “Sensor Test.”
2. If testing the sensor does not clear the trouble condition, call your security dealer for service.

SENSOR XX LOW 
BATTERY

A sensor has a low battery.
1. Disarm the system.
2. Remove the sensor cover. If the battery is an Alkaline AAA or AA, change the battery(s). If the 

battery is any other type, call your security dealer for service.

SENSOR XX TAMPER

A sensor cover is off or open.  Secure the cover and trip the sensor to clear the tamper condition.

PHONE FAILURE 
TROUBLE

The system can’t communicate with the central monitoring station. The system tries to report to the 
central station three times before indicating Phone Failure Trouble, then makes five more reporting 
attempts.
1. Make sure the panel is connected to the special phone jack installed by your security dealer.
2. Disconnect the panel from the special phone jack and check phones for dial tone. If you hear a 

dial tone, call your security dealer for service. If you don’t hear dial from any phones, telephone 
service in your area may be out.

Phone Failure Trouble takes precedence over other system problems, so you must clear the Phone 
Failure message (by disarming the panel) before you’re able to see other system messages.

RECEIVER 
INTERFERENCE or 
RECEIVER FAILURE

There is a receiver failure or receiver interference problem.  Call your security dealer for service.

MEMORY FAILURE or 
all text is lit on a fixed 
display touchpad 

There is a system memory failure.  Call your security dealer for service.
