If your DSC Security System indicates a low battery, it could be because the main panel battery voltage is less than 7.2VDC. If the battery is new, allow 24 hours for it to charge. Check that the voltage measured across the AC terminals is 16-18 VAC, and replace the transformer if needed. Also, try disconnecting and then reconnecting the battery leads.
How to fix a 'Zone Fault' on my DSC PowerSeries Security System?
A 'Zone Fault' on your DSC Security System indicates either a hard-wired zone fault with a short circuit or that one or more wireless devices haven't checked in within the programmed time. * For a hard-wired zone fault: Remove the wire leads from the I/O and COM terminals and measure the resistance of the wire leads. Connect a 5.6K resistor (Green, Blue, Red) across the I/O and COM terminals and verify the trouble condition clears. * For wireless devices: Perform a Module Placement Test (Program Section [904]) to ensure the wireless device is in a good location. If the test results are bad, test the device in another location. If it tests good in a new location, the original location is bad. If the device continues to give bad results, replace it.
