rapid resume logic
Rapid Resume Logic ensures that when the security system is powered back up after power has been disconnected,
the system will resume the same state it was in before power was lost. For example, if power is disconnected
during a full trigger sequence, the system will still be in the full trigger sequence when power is reconnected to
the unit. If power is disconnected while the unit is disarmed, it will still be disarmed when power is restored.
troubleshooting
■ Shock sensor doesn’t trigger the alarm.
Has the NPC
™
system been triggered? If so, you will hear five chirps when disarming. To check this, turn the igni-
tion key on and off to clear the NPC
™
from memory, and then retest the shock sensor. For a detailed description
of NPC
™
, see Owner’s Guide.
■ Door input does not immediately trigger full alarm. Instead, I hear chirps for the first three seconds.
That’s how the progressive two-stage door input works! This is the instant response feature of this system. Even
if the door is closed immediately, the system provides an instant trigger by chirping, and then progressing to a
constant siren.
■ Closing the door triggers the system, but opening the door does not.
Have you correctly identified the type of door switch system? This often happens when the wrong door input has
been used.
■ Door input does not respond with the progressive trigger, but with immediate full alarm.
Which zone does the LED indicate? If the LED indicates that the impact sensor caused the trigger, the sensor may
be detecting the door opening. Reducing the sensitivity or relocating the sensor can often solve this problem.
If the LED indicates that the door caused the trigger, you may have programmed the progressive door trigger off.
(See Feature 2-4 in the Feature Descriptions section of this guide.)
■ Status LED doesn’t work.
Make sure that it is plugged in. (See Plug-In Harnesses section of this guide.)
