Why does my Bosch D8125 Control Unit transmit PT BUS TROUBLE reports?
- N
  nicole65Aug 13, 2025
  A short on either the Data Expansion Loop or the ZONEX data terminals generates a PT BUS TROUBLE report on the Bosch Control Unit. While the short remains, the control panel responds as though the sensor loop for each point connected to the POPEX module was shorted. Check the wiring for shorts. Also, ensure all POPIT and OctoPOPIT address switches are set correctly. POPITs cannot be used for Points 128 or 248, and OctoPOPITs cannot be used for Points 121 through 128 or 241 through 248.

What to do if one or more points remain in trouble or alarm with all devices connected to the sensor loops normal on my Bosch Control Unit?

  If the sensor loop is open, shorted, or grounded, it may cause troubles or alarms depending on point programming of your Bosch Control Unit. Remove the sensor loop from the D9412/D9112 or POPIT and use a meter to check its continuity. The resistance should be no more than 100 Ω, plus the value of the end-of-line resistor on the wires. If the resistance is less than the value of the end-of-line resistor, inspect the wiring for shorts. With the wires for the loop removed, check them for continuity to ground. A ground before the end-of-line resistor on an on-board point’s sensor loop is interpreted as a short. A ground on a sensor loop for a POPIT point is interpreted as an open.

Why do points intermittently appear as missing on my Bosch D8125 Control Unit?
- M
  Matthew GonzalezAug 21, 2025
  If points intermittently appear as missing or are erratic on your Bosch Control Unit, it could be due to a problem with the data expansion loop. Also, ensure that the Debounce Count parameter is set at the default of 2, except for Interior Follower Points, where it should be 3. Decreasing the Debounce Count to 1 may cause points to appear as missing, while increasing it may cause missed alarms.

How to fix all off-board points showing as MISSING on my Bosch D8125?
- F
  Frank SmithAug 26, 2025
  If all off-board points are showing as MISSING on your Bosch Control Unit, there may be a short on Aux Power, Terminal 3, or ZONEX power, Terminal 24, as these terminals share a common circuit breaker. Check the wiring and devices connected to these terminals for shorts or grounds. Also, if only one POPEX module is connected to the control panel, verify that the POPEX module is correctly connected to the D9412/D9112 and the Data Expansion Loop.

How to troubleshoot a missing point on my Bosch Control Unit?
- T
  Timothy GonzalesAug 28, 2025
  If a point appears as missing at keypads and in reports to the receiver on your Bosch Control Unit, it could be because the POPIT is not connected or is incorrectly connected to the data expansion loop. Verify that a POPIT module programmed for the missing point number is connected to the data expansion loop of the correct ZONEX module (Points 9 to 127 connect to ZONEX module 1, and Points 129 to 247 connect to ZONEX module 2). Meter each POPIT to verify the polarity of the data expansion loop; voltage should be 9 to 13 VDC at each POPIT. Also, ensure that the sensor loop switch on the OctoPOPIT is not turned off for a programmed point. Finally, verify that the switches on the POPIT are set for the missing POPIT number, as incorrect switch settings can cause both missing and extra POPITs.

What to do if keyswitch points report as MISSING on my Bosch D8125?
- M
  Marcus WhiteSep 1, 2025
  If keyswitch points report as MISSING on your Bosch Control Unit, the point may be disconnected from the SDI data bus. The POPIT cover may have been removed and not replaced, or the cover may not be seated properly. Ensure the SDI bus is reconnected or the POPIT cover is seated firmly on the POPIT to restore the point.

Why don't faulted points generate alarms on my Bosch D8125?
- E
  Eric DavisSep 5, 2025
  If faulted points do not generate alarms or troubles as programmed on your Bosch Control Unit, it could be because the Sensor Reset was pressed when the alarm or trouble was generated. The D9412/D9112 ignores input from all points in the same area programmed for sensor reset during sensor reset. Also, check that two points are not programmed with the same address, as this can prevent them from functioning correctly.

Why does my Bosch Control Unit service walk test show extra points?
- D
  Dylan CookSep 8, 2025
  If the Bosch Control Unit's service walk test displays extra points, it means the switches on a POPIT were incorrectly set to a point number not in your program. This causes the default text for that # PTS UNTESTED point number (PT ###) to display when the point is faulted.
