The POWER ON LED flashes when the mains power is off or has failed. Check the mains supply. If the mains supply is present, verify that the MX1 PSU is functioning correctly.
What to do if Vigilant MX1-Au shows 'MX Loop overload' point in fault?
If the “MX Loop overload” point is in fault, use the MX Loop Status Display to check the voltage and current being drawn by the loop. Check for additional loads resulting from recent system changes, such as additional devices or sounder bases. Re-validate the loop design using MX1Cal.
What to do if Vigilant Fire Alarms LCD shows 'ERROR: CANNOT COMMUNICATE WITH MAIN BOARD'?
If the LCD shows “ERROR: CANNOT COMMUNICATE WITH MAIN BOARD”, check the links on the LCD/keyboard and the cabling. Also, verify the controller indicators and ensure the controller firmware is not corrupt and is operating. Press SILENCE and recheck when programming is completed. You may need to replace or re-fit the components.
How to fix Alarm Devices Fault/Disabled LED flashing on Vigilant MX1-Au?
If the Alarm Devices Fault/Disabled LED is flashing, check the Alarm Devices equipment and wiring for faults. Do NOT disable the Alarm Devices to mask this fault, as doing so will prevent any non-faulty outputs from operating. Instead, disable the specific point(s) in fault.
What to do if Vigilant Fire Alarms keyboard is not enabled?
If the keyboard is not enabled when the keylock is in the KEYBOARD-ENABLE position, check that the doorswitch loom is correctly connected to J3 on the Controller board. Removing J3 is equivalent to the door being closed. Replace the doorswitch and retest. Replace the loom and retest. Check the panel configuration.
What does it mean when Vigilant Fire Alarms shows 'MX Loop left S/C' point in fault?
If “MX Loop left S/C” point is in fault, it means there is a short-circuit on the MX Loop wiring between the MX1 and the first isolator or an open circuit on loop or short circuit between isolator devices. Locate and rectify the short circuit. Use the Devices command in the MX Loop Status screen on the front panel to show which devices are present on the left and right sides of the loop.
