    What to do if my GE Concord 4 says 'AC POWER FAILURE'?
    • G
      gsmithAug 19, 2025
      If your GE Security System displays an 'AC POWER FAILURE' message, it indicates that the panel power transformer might be unplugged or there could be a power outage. If the transformer is plugged in, check the circuit breaker or fuse that controls the outlet.

      If your GE Security System displays 'SENSOR XX LOW BATTERY', it means that a sensor has a low battery. To resolve this: 1. Disarm the system. 2. Remove the sensor cover.

    Why can’t I arm my GE Concord 4 to Level 3—AWAY?
    • A
      Amy TylerSep 3, 2025
      If you can’t arm your GE Security System to Level 3—AWAY, it might be because a delay door is open or was not activated after the arming attempt. Close the delay door, arm the system to Level 3, then exit through a delay door.

    Why does my GE Concord 4 Security System alphanumeric touchpad display “INVALID” when bypassing a sensor?
    • C
      cody47Sep 5, 2025
      If your GE Security System alphanumeric touchpad displays “INVALID” and your fixed display touchpad sounds a single, long beep when you attempt to bypass a sensor, it could be due to several reasons: * The sensor you’re trying to bypass may not be active in the current arming level. For example, an interior motion detector will not be active in Level 2—STAY. * You may be trying to bypass a 24-hour sensor that cannot be bypassed, such as a smoke detector. * Your access code has not been assigned the direct bypassing attribute.

    Why don't my lights come on automatically as programmed on my GE Concord 4?
    • M
      Michelle CarlsonSep 6, 2025
      If the lights don’t come on automatically as programmed with your GE Security System, check the following: * Does the lamp have a working bulb? * Is the lamp plugged in at a working outlet that is not controlled by a light switch? * Is the lamp plugged in to a lamp module? * Make sure that you’ve attached the correct time schedule. * Check to see that you’ve set up the time schedule correctly. * Check the User Sheets to see in which partition the light is set up to be active.
