DEALING WITH A SENSOR FALSE ALARM
Whenarmed,theControlPanelreportsalarmconditionsonallsensors,bothvisually(onthe
statusbar,andthroughasystemalerticon)andaudibly(throughvoiceandchime
announcements).Therearetimes,thoughrare,thatansensorwillsendanalarmconditionto
theControlPanelwhennoalarmexists.Thecond
itionsofafalsealarmvarydependingonthe
typeofsensorandhowthatsensorcommunicateswiththeControlPanel.
