Why ADEMCO 5800 RF System transmitter doesn't respond in normal operation but clears in Go/NoGo mode?
- J
  Joseph RobinsonSep 8, 2025
  With the ADEMCO 5800 RF System, if there's no response to a transmitter in normal operation, but the zone number clears during Go/NoGo mode, it could be due to the wrong loop input being entered during programming, assuming another input causes the zone to be displayed. To fix this, delete the input's serial number (not the zone) and enter the proper loop input (see field *56). If there is no response at all from this transmitter, this physical transmitter has not been entered into the system. Determine which transmitter is programmed for this zone and reprogram as necessary.

Why is my ADEMCO VIA-30PSE keypad beeping?
- J
  Javier SilvaAug 25, 2025
  If your ADEMCO Security System keypad is beeping periodically, it could be due to several reasons. The system might be in TEST mode, which can be exited by entering "Code" + OFF. Alternatively, a wireless transmitter might have a low battery, indicated on the display; after replacing the battery, enter "Code" + OFF. Finally, a supervision CHECK may have occurred; check the indicated wireless transmitter and restore communication to the RF receiver to cancel the condition.

Why am I getting a repeated low battery signal on my ADEMCO VIA-30PSE?
- L
  Luis LopezAug 27, 2025
  If you're getting a repeated low battery signal from your ADEMCO Security System, it could be due to a few reasons. The transmitter might be located in an area where the temperature drops below 32°F; if so, change its location or use magnetic contacts to protect the opening. It could also be due to a poor-quality or unspecified battery in the transmitter; check the battery and use only the types specified in the instructions. Finally, the transmitter itself might be malfunctioning, in which case you should replace it.

Why does my ADEMCO Security System keypad show a low battery message?
- L
  Lisa BlackwellAug 27, 2025
  The "Bat" or “System Lo Bat” message (without zone numbers) indicates the system battery is low or missing. If you see "Bat" or “Lo Bat” + "00", the remote RF keypad battery is low. If the message is "Bat" or “Lo Bat” + "nn", it means the transmitter for zone “nn” has a low battery. Replace the corresponding battery to resolve the issue.

Why is my ADEMCO Security System's detector alarming for no apparent reason?
- M
  megan27Sep 15, 2025
  If your ADEMCO Security System's detector is alarming for no apparent reason, it could be due to dust or dirt in the sensing chamber; clean the unit's sensing chamber with a vacuum cleaner per the unit's instructions. Another cause might be an improper location; refer to the unit's instructions for locations to avoid and relocate as necessary. Finally, the unit itself might be malfunctioning, requiring replacement of the detector.

Why is my ADEMCO VIA-30PSE not responding to keypad inputs?
- M
  millermichaelSep 9, 2025
  If your ADEMCO VIA-30PSE isn't responding to keystrokes on the keypad, it could be because "CC" or "MODEM COMM" is displayed, indicating the system is communicating with a downloader at the central station; wait until the download session is finished. Alternatively, "d1" or "System Busy" might be displayed, meaning the system has just been powered and is in its one-minute initialization period; to bypass this time, press '#' + '0'. If "E4" or "E8" is displayed, more zones have been programmed than the zone expansion modules can handle; delete some zones or use a higher capability RF receiver. Finally, the keypad address setting might be incorrect; keypads must be set for address 31 (non-addressable mode).

Why is the digital communicator message from my ADEMCO VIA-30PSE Security System not being received?
- A
  amber39Sep 6, 2025
  If the digital communicator message from your ADEMCO Security System is not being received, it could be due to several reasons. The control might be in TEST mode, so remove it from TEST mode. Check that the telephone connection is secure. The digital communicator itself might be malfunctioning, so test with a different VIA-30PSE. The telephone number in the program might need a prefix or access code, so program the prefix or access code into the control. If the telephone call to the central monitoring station requires operator assistance, the system cannot work in this situation.

  Daniel KnappSep 3, 2025
  If your ADEMCO Security System isn't arming properly, it may be because the READY light is not on. Check for faulted zones by pressing [,]; make sure these zones are intact, or use Bypass arming if you prefer.
