If the DSC Cell Phone shows a Yellow LED flashing 9 times, it indicates an FTC (Failed To Communicate) trouble. The unit has exhausted all communication attempts to all programmed receivers for events generated by the communicator. Restart the system. If the trouble persists, contact your dealer.
What to do if DSC TL280 Cell Phone yellow LED flashes 9 times?
If the DSC Cell Phone's yellow LED flashes 9 times, it indicates an FTC (failure to communicate) trouble. This means the unit has exhausted all communication attempts to all programmed receivers for events generated by the communicator. Restart the system; if the trouble continues, contact your dealer.
What does DSC TL280 yellow LED 2 flashes mean?
If the DSC Cell Phone's yellow LED flashes twice, it indicates a panel supervision trouble. To resolve this, check that section [382] toggle option [5] is ON (Alternate Communicator Enabled). Also, ensure that the PC-LINK cable between the panel and communicator is connected properly (not reversed) and is securely in place.
What does it mean if DSC TL280 yellow LED flashes 8 times?
If the DSC Cell Phone's yellow LED flashes 8 times, it indicates a receiver supervision trouble. This trouble appears when supervision is enabled, and the unit cannot successfully communicate with the receiver. If this issue continues, contact the central station.
What to do if DSC TL280 yellow LED flashes 12 times?
If the DSC Cell Phone's yellow LED flashes 12 times, it indicates a module configuration trouble. This usually means that the system account code in section [021] or the receiver account code in sections [101] or [111] has not been programmed. Ensure that a valid account code has been entered in these sections.
Why is there no indication on my DSC TL280?
If there is no indication on your DSC Cell Phone, the cause might be no power. Check the power connections between the panel and the communicator. Also, confirm that the PC-LINK cable is properly installed between the communicator and the panel.
What to do if DSC Cell Phone yellow LED flashes 7 times?
If the DSC Cell Phone's yellow LED flashes seven times, it means the receiver is not available. Ensure that the Ethernet path has Internet connectivity. If you're using a static IP address, verify that the gateway and subnet mask are entered correctly. If your network has a firewall, ensure that the programmed outgoing ports are open (default UDP port 3060 and port 3065). Also, ensure that all the receivers are programmed for DHCP or have the correct IP address and port number.
What does it mean if red and yellow LEDs are flashing together on DSC TL280 Cell Phone?
If the red and yellow LEDs are flashing together on your DSC Cell Phone, it could mean one of two things. It may indicate that the unit is in the initialization sequence, meaning it is still getting its programming and establishing a connection to all programmed receivers; this process can take several minutes. Alternatively, it could mean the bootloader has failed. To check if the bootloader has failed, enter communicator programming [*][8][installer code][851]. If access is granted, continue waiting for the initialization sequence to complete. If access is denied (long error tone), disconnect and then reconnect power to the communicator module.
What to do if DSC TL280 Cell Phone yellow LED flashes 6 times?
If the DSC Cell Phone's yellow LED flashes six times, it indicates an Ethernet trouble. First, check with your ISP to ensure your Internet service is active. Then, make sure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the RJ45 jack on the communicator and your hub/router/switch. Verify the link light on the hub/router/switch is on; if it's off, restart the hub/router/switch. If you are using DHCP, confirm that the unit has been assigned a valid IP address from the server by checking sections [851][992]. If there is no valid IP address, contact your network administrator. If the problem continues, try replacing the Ethernet cable and RJ45 connector.

If the DSC Cell Phone shows a Yellow LED flashing six times, it indicates an Ethernet trouble. First, check with your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to make sure Internet service is active. Then, ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the RJ45 jack on the communicator and the hub/router/switch. Verify that the link light on the hub/router/switch is on; if it's off, try restarting the hub/router/switch. If you're using DHCP, confirm that the unit has been assigned a valid IP address from the server, and check that a valid IP address is programmed in Sections [851][992].
