    What to do if my FBII Security System displays 'COMM FAILURE'?
    • J
      Jennifer ThomasAug 18, 2025
      If your FBII Security System shows 'COMM FAILURE', it indicates a failure to communicate with the Central Station. This could be due to cut or disconnected telephone lines, requiring repair or replacement of the wiring. It may also indicate that the Central Station information is misprogrammed. Alternatively, the panel/dialer itself or the telephone lines could be faulty, in which case you should consider replacing the panel or consulting your local telephone company.

    Why does my FBII XL-2T Security System say 'NOT READY: ZN #'?
    • G
      gsnyderAug 20, 2025
      The 'NOT READY: ZN #' message on your FBII Security System indicates that a zone is faulted, and the system is not ready. Check the loop wiring for any opens or shorts and repair as needed. Also, verify that the EOL resistor isn't open or has the wrong value. It could also be due to a faulty keypad, in which case you should replace it. As a last resort, it may be a faulty panel, in which case you should check the zone terminal voltage for 3.3VDC, bypass the zone temporarily, and consider replacing the panel.

    How to fix AC LOSS error on FBII XL-2T Security System?
    • A
      Andrew RamosAug 22, 2025
      If your FBII Security System displays an 'AC LOSS' error, it could be due to primary AC power being out. Check the transformer connection and the AC input voltage. If the power supply is fine, the keypad itself may be faulty, requiring replacement.

    What to do if the siren on my FBII XL-2T Security System doesn't sound?
    • T
      Thomas WolfAug 26, 2025
      If the siren or speaker on your FBII Security System isn't working, the problem could stem from several causes. First, the siren/speaker itself might be faulty; test it by connecting 12VDC directly to it. If no sound is produced, replace the siren/speaker. Second, the wiring could be faulty; check for any open or short circuits and replace the wiring if necessary. Lastly, the panel/bell output might be faulty; check terminals 22 (+) & 23 (-) for 12VDC when the panel is in alarm (if programmed for bell output). If no voltage is measured, replace the panel.

    How to troubleshoot a blank keypad display on my FBII XL-2T Security System?
    • T
      Timothy RichardsonAug 28, 2025
      If the keypad display on your FBII Security System is not lit, it could be due to a lack of AC and DC power. Check the transformer and battery connections, as well as the AC input and battery voltage with the transformer disconnected. Another possible cause is that the keypad is not powered. Check terminals 15(+) and 12(-) for 12VDC.

    Why is the 'LOW BAT' message appearing on my FBII XL-2T Security System?
    • R
      Robin BarrAug 30, 2025
      A 'LOW BAT' message on your FBII Security System indicates a potential issue with the DC power or low battery voltage. Check the battery connections and the battery voltage with the transformer disconnected. If the voltage is less than 11VDC, let the battery charge or replace it.

    What to do if the ZONE light is ON and the READY light is OFF on my FBII XL-2T?
    • S
      seanrossSep 2, 2025
      If the ZONE light is ON and the READY light is OFF, it indicates that a zone has faulted, and the system isn't ready. This could be due to a zone fault, a faulty keypad, or a faulty panel. First, check the loop wiring for any opens or shorts and repair them. Also, check the EOL resistor for an open or incorrect value. If the issue persists, check the zone terminal voltage for 3.3VDC, bypass the zone temporarily. If none of these steps resolve the issue, the keypad or panel may need replacement.

    Why is the AC/LB light OFF on my FBII Security System?
    • E
      Ethan LewisSep 4, 2025
      If the AC/LB light is off, it could be due to a primary AC power outage or a faulty keypad. Check the transformer connection and the AC input voltage. If the power supply is working, the keypad may need to be replaced.

    How to fix an FBII XL-2T Security System siren that doesn't sound?
    • J
      Jesse NicholsSep 7, 2025
      If the siren or speaker isn't producing sound, the cause may be a faulty siren/speaker, faulty wiring, or a faulty panel/bell output. To troubleshoot: * Connect 12 VDC directly to the siren/speaker. If no sound is produced, replace the siren/speaker. * Check the wiring for any open or short circuits, replacing the wiring if necessary. * Check terminals 22 (+) & 23 (-) for 12VDC when the panel is in alarm (if programmed for bell output). If no voltage is measured, replace the panel.

    What to do if the keypad display is not lit on my FBII XL-2T Security System?
    • D
      Danny RobinsonSep 9, 2025
      If the keypad display is not lit, it could be due to AC and DC power being out or the keypad not being powered. Check the transformer and battery connections, and verify the AC input and battery voltage with the transformer disconnected. Also, check terminals 15(+) and 12(-) for 12VDC to ensure the keypad is receiving power.
