receiver.
1d. Metal shielding between transmitter and
RF receiver.
1e. Transmitter malfunctioning.
1f.
5881/5882 malfunctioning.
1g. Transmitter No. (zone) not programmed.
1h. 5881/5882 address incorrect.
1i.

REMEDY
1a
Check or change transmitter's battery.
Check FA162C's AC power.
1b. Check code switches inside transmitter.
Must match with RF House Code
programmed in FA162C.
1c. Move transmitter or RF receiver.
1d. Check for large metal obstructions, then
relocate transmitter if necessary.
1e. Verify by activating 5881/5882 with
another, similar transmitter. If O.K. now,
return defective transmitter.
1f.
Verify by making sure other transmitters
cannot activate 5881/5882. If defective,
replace and return original 5881./5882.
1g. Verify programming.
1h. Set DIP switch on 5881/5882 for address
Ò0Ó.
1i.
Set field 22 for Ò1Ó.
2a. Set ZT to a valid active zone type in field
* 56.
2b. Install proper battery.
2c. "Enroll" unit in field * 56 or * 83.
3a. System battery is low or missing.
3b. Remote RF keypad battery is low.
3c. Transmitter for zone ÒnnÓ has a low
battery.
4a. Enter "Code" + OFF to exit TEST mode.
4b. Enter "Code" + OFF and replace the
