Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
If the armed indicator is flashing.
If the PowerHorn does not trip when the
alarm trips.
The Motion Detector causes false
alarms.
SOLUTION
This indicates that there has been an
intrusion. Also, if a zone indicator is on,
this indicates which zone was violated. To
turn the zone indicator off, and stop the
armed indicator from flashing press ARM
then DISARM on the Console or remote
control. If a zone indicator is not lit, the
violated zone may have been one of the
second eight zones. Press BYPASS to
see which zone was tripped.
• Be sure you set the dials on the
PowerHorn to the same House Code
and Unit Code as set on the Console.
• Plug the PowerHorn into another
outlet near the Console.
• All brands of motion detectors sense
motion by detecting a change in
temperature, therefore do not place
the detector near any sources of heat
such as over a heating vent or an air
conditioner.
• Do not place in a direct source of
bright light, such as sunlight.
• Do not place near cellular telephones
or microwave ovens.

Troubleshooting
Special Notes
Intercom Systems
Intercom systems which send voice signals over existing electrical wiring may interfere
Troubleshooting
with the ability to control modules from your X10 security system with the intercom in
use. If the intercom system has its own separate wiring it will not cause a problem.
Arming
The ARM button on the Console arms the system in the delay mode only. Use a Remote
if you want to arm the system in the instant (min) mode.
Outdoor infrared Motion Detector
The PR511 Outdoor Motion Detector will not trigger the X10 security system. It can,
however, control the same lights that the security system controls.
