Appendix A
The FPT-DACT considers the connection of
the FMR-DACT-KEYPAD as an abnormal
condition.
A.2 Input Points
When there is a problem with the FPT-DACT’s input
points, the Sys Trouble LED remains steady on. If the
input point(s) are programmed for supervision, plug in
the FMR-DACT-KEYPAD and press [1] to select
1: STATUS from the Main Menu. If the status shows
any point troubles, check the input point wiring and
verify all EOL resistors, if attached, are intact. Refer to
Section 4.2 Input Point Operation on page 22 for
additional information.
A.3 Trouble Relay
When powered up, the FPT-DACT’s on-board trouble
relay is energized (normal standby). Refer to Figures 12
and 13 on page 15. If the on-board trouble relay remains
in the off-normal (de-energized) position, check the
trouble relay’s programming configuration.
Releas on Trbl: This setting, Release on Trouble, keeps
the trouble relay activated and releases it to indicate a
trouble condition.
Activ Gnd Strt: This setting, Activate on Ground Start,
keeps the trouble relay deactivated and activates it when
the FPT-DACT needs to place a call.
If the FACP supervises the connection to the FPT-
DACT’s on-board trouble relay, and there is a wiring
fault or the EOL resistor is missing, the FACP shows a
system trouble condition on the appropriate FPT-DACT
input point (if it is used and programmed). The FPT-
DACT sends a System Trouble Report. The FPT-
DACT’s Sys Trouble LED or the on-board trouble relay
do not activate.
A.4 Manual Test Report Failure
If the FPT-DACT fails to send the Manual Test Report
in two attempts or the [* Clear] key is pressed, the report
transmission is aborted. A COMM FAULT message is not
sent. The FMR-DACT-KEYPAD emits a three-beep tone
and the message COMMUNICATOR FAILED appears.
After 2 sec the keypad display updates to show
CLEARING ALL REPORTS!! Any report in the report
queue, including the Manual Test Report, is deleted. The
rotating Test Menu appears after 2 sec.
A.5 Reports in Queue
If there are any reports in the queue, the FMR-DACT-
KEYPAD shows the message REPORTS IN QUEUE
PLEASE WAIT. The FPT-DACT waits for these reports
to be sent. If you press [* Clear] on the FMR-DACT-
KEYPAD, the wait ends, the FMR-DACT-KEYPAD
emits a three-beep tone, and the keypad’s LCD shows
the message, ERROR DURING COMM TEST. The
rotating Test Menu returns to the keypad’s LCD after
showing the message for 2 sec.
When the report queue is empty, the FPT-DACT
prompts you to select the telephone line to be used
(either Line 1 or Line 2). The FPT-DACT can also
prompt you to alternate the telephone lines. For details,
refer to 1: TEST COMM in Section 5.5.4 3-TEST on
page 44.
When the third option (ALTERNATE) is selected, the
telephone line is switched from the line used in the last
Manual Test Report to the other line. This switch occurs
whether you select the line number or ALTERNATE.
Pressing [* Clear] instead of a selection key switches
between Line 1 and Line 2. Sending an Auto Test does
not affect the telephone line sequence of the Manual Test
Report. When the line selection is complete, the Manual
Test Report is added to the report queue.
If the report queue is full of reports to send, a Data Lost
Report is sent unless one is already in the queue and the
Manual Test Report is not sent. The Data Lost Report
goes in the History Log whether or not the it was added
to the report queue.
A.6 Error During Comm Test
When a Manual Test is requested, the FPT-DACT
verifies there is at least one good telephone line. If not,
the FMR-DACT-KEYPAD emits a three-beep tone and
ERROR DURING COMM TEST appears for 2 sec. The
rotating Test Menu returns to the keypad’s LCD.

No. of
Flashes
Indicates Description
4 ROM
Checksum
Failure
The ROM checksum failed.
Failure can occur at any time.
During failure, the FPT-DACT
continuously cycles through its
start-up routine. Each time the
start-up routine occurs, the SYS
TROUBLE LED flashes four
times.
Contact Technical Support
immediately at (888) 886-6189.
5 EEPROM
Checksum
Failure
An EEPROM Test is performed
every 10 minutes. If the
checksum fails, the FPT-DACT
automatically defaults. The SYS
TROUBLE LED lights and
TROUBLE PROGRAMMING
appears on the keypad. You
must reprogram all configuration
settings.
If this failure occurs often,
contact Technical Support
immediately at (888) 886-6189.
