9) Trouble Shooting
Q – Display - The system display shows [NOT READY] or [NOT
READY - TROUBLE]
A – There is a fault outstanding, press the status button on any
keyfob or press the
button repeatedly and listen to each
message. Any “…Alarm” messages i.e. “Hall Tamper Alarm” can
be ignored however, zone and tamper open messages need to
be addressed i.e. “Hall Tamper OPEN”.
Q – Display - How do I clear the [READY - MEMORY] message?
A – Press the status button on the Keyfob or press
repeatedly
to review the memory condition. Start the ARMING process then
disarm the system. The memory prompt should be cleared.
Q - Tamper - I have tted a sensor with cover closed but the
system is saying the tamper is OPEN, what is wrong?
A - Typically this can happen on PIR sensors when the back plate is
not tted well or the PCB board is incorrectly positioned. Remove
the PCB and check that the back tamper clicks when you ret it,
then replace the cover again listening for the tamper to click.
Q – Siren - The internal siren will sound on the control panel but
will not sound the external siren
A - This is due to the abort time found in the Installer mode-
‘Dene Panel’-menu 5. If this is set to above 0 seconds it will
delay the external siren and telephone communications.
Q – Communication - I have entered the private phone numbers
but the panel does not dial when the system is triggered.
A – You need to also enable option 20 in the dene Coms menu.

nothing happens.

to select the type (Silent or Audible) pressing , to
conrm.

says certain devices are [NOT OK]

triggered (tamper or alarm)
