Ground Fault - A Ground Fault trouble condition will occur if
the Earth Ground (EGND) connection is shorted to a positive
voltage source or shorted to a non-earth ground potential.
This trouble will generate an audible and visual trouble as
well as a Ground Fault reporting code transmission.
Waterflow TBL - If the Waterflow zone on a PC4700 Fire
Module is opened (WFA or WFB), a visual keypad trouble
(trouble LED will come on) with audible indication and a
Waterflow trouble transmission is generated. The LCD will
show the message "FIRE TROUBLE!! Waterflow TBL", until
the Waterflow zone trouble is restored. If there is more than
one PC4700 trouble condition present these trouble
messages will scroll every 3 seconds to the next message.
Cellular Trouble -
This indicates that the LINKS unit has
one or more of the following trouble conditions: AC,
battery, loss of cellular or a tamper fault.
DLS Fault TBL - This trouble condition will generate an
audible and visual trouble when the control panel fails to
complete communications with the downloading computer.
Zn Sensor Fault - This trouble condition will occur when a
wireless zone fails to report a zone supervisory for (XXX)
minutes. To view which zone has the trouble press the []
key while viewing the trouble condition. The zone(s) with
the trouble condition will be displayed in numerical order
on the display. A keypad trouble is generated when the
system is disarmed and a visual "Zn Sensor Fault" trouble
and trouble reporting code will be transmitted.
Zn LwBatt Fault - This trouble condition will occur when a
wireless zone has a low battery condition. To view which
zone has the trouble press the [] key while viewing the
trouble condition. The zone(s) with the trouble condition
will be displayed in numerical order on the display. A
keypad trouble is generated when the system is disarmed
and a visual "Zn Low Batt Fault" trouble and trouble
reporting code will be transmitted
RF Zn Tamper TBL - This trouble condition occurs when
the system toggle option RF Tmp Disarm is disabled and
a wireless zone is tampered on a disarmed partition.
Automation Fault - This trouble condition will occur when
the Escort 4580 losses communication with the Automation
Output control module. An audible trouble (VIA keypad
buzzer) will be generated as well as the trouble LED
activating for the keypads. An Automation Fault trouble
reporting code will be sent to the monitoring station if
programmed. If there is an AC trouble present at the time the
panel will not transmit the Automation Fault reporting code.
Printer Off-Line
- -
- -
- This trouble condition will occur if the
serial printer connected to the PC4400 serial interface
module goes off-line.
PC4400 Trouble
- -
- -
- This trouble will be displayed when a
DVAC Fault occurs (The DVAC line from central station is
not present), or a Module Fault occurs (The PC4400
module has failed an internal diagnostics), or if DVAC
communications has been shut down by central.
Bell CCT Trouble -
If the bell fuse opens or the bell circuit
is open, a keypad trouble and a Bell Circuit trouble
transmission are generated.
Fire Trouble -
If a FIRE loop is open circuit, a keypad
trouble and a Fire Loop trouble transmission are
generated. A trouble on the FIRE loop will unconditionally
initiate an audible and visual (trouble light) indication on
the keypad. This means that even if any other previous
trouble has been silenced, a FIRE loop trouble will restart
the keypad buzzer.
Fire Trouble 2WS - If the fire zone on a PC4700 Fire
Module is opened, a visual keypad trouble (trouble LED
will come on) with audible indication and a fire zone
trouble transmission is generated. The LCD will show the
message "FIRE TROUBLE!! 2 Wire Smoke", until the fire
zone trouble is restored. If there is more than one PC4700
trouble condition present these trouble messages will
scroll every 3 seconds to the next message.
Loss of Time -
When the PC4020 is powered up, the
internal time of day clock needs to be set to the correct
time. This trouble is cleared when an attempt is made to
reset the internal time of day clock. See “System Master
Codes” for resetting the time of day clock.
Module Com Fault -
The panel has lost communications
with a module and cannot recover it. Check to see if the
module is connected properly, then do a system reset.
See “Diagnostics” in the Programming Manual to
determine which module is not communicating.
Combus Low Pwr
-
Modules are not getting enough
voltage from the Combus. Check for proper connection of
Combus, or the Combus needs to be repowered. See
4204 modules and the 4204 PGM Combus power option
for supplying voltage to the Combus. See “Diagnostics” in
the Programming Manual to determine which module has
low voltage.
Internal Fault
-
A problem has occurred with the Combus
microprocessors. If this trouble occurs, check
connections to the Combus and do a system reset.
4204 Battery TBL
-
If any PC4204 relay output module’s
battery drops below 11.3 volts, a battery trouble is
generated.
To determine which of the PC4204’s has the low battery,
check the reporting code transmitted to the monitoring
station or check the event buffer printout if there is a
printer attached, or through downloading. The battery
voltage is checked once every 4 minutes. So the battery
trouble may not restore instantly when the battery voltage
is restored.
4204 AC Trouble
-
If any PC4204 relay output module
loses incoming AC power, the keypad trouble light will
indicate a 4204 AC trouble. But there will be no audible
annunciation until there is also a low battery condition.
The PC4204 AC troubles will be transmitted to the
monitoring station immediately.
4204 AUX Trouble
-
If the Aux fuse on any PC4204 relay
module should open or if the Aux supply is overloaded, a
4204 Aux trouble is generated.
