Troubles can be viewed while armed using the LCD keypad, provided the keypad is version 2.0 or later.
Older keypads will incorrectly display "Fire Trouble". If using older LCD keypads, programming section
[013], option [3] as OFF will ensure troubles are displayed correctly.
If the Troubles are Latching option is enabled, when a trouble restores before a user has viewed it (via [✱ ✱ ✱ ✱ ✱ ][2]), the
Trouble (or System) LED will stay on (latch). Once a user has viewed the trouble, the LED will turn off (unless other
troubles are present on the system). The trouble LED will turn off when a user enters [✱ ✱ ✱ ✱ ✱ ][2] on either partition.
The PC5132-NB and PC5132-433 receivers detect jamming signals that can prevent the receiver from properly receiving
transmissions from enrolled devices. If the system detects jamming signals for longer than 30 seconds, the Trouble (or
System) light will turn on. The keypad will not sound trouble beeps for an RF jam trouble unless the Audible RF Trouble
(Keypad Beeps) option is turned on. If the system detects jamming signals for longer than 5 minutes, the panel will send
a General System Trouble reporting code.

The various troubles are described below:
Light Trouble
1 Service Required: Press [1] to determine the specific trouble. If one of the following zone lights is on, the
corresponding trouble is present:
• Light [1] – Low Battery. Main panel backup battery charge is low (below 11.5 volts under load).Trouble
is restored when the battery charges over 12.5 volts.
• Light [2] – Bell Circuit Trouble. The bell circuit is open (see Section 5.12 "Siren"). When a Bell Circuit
Trouble occurs, the keypad buzzers will turn on. They will remain on until a user enters a valid access code.
• Light [3] – General System Trouble. This trouble condition applies if there is verification that an RF jam
has been present for at least 5 minutes.
• Light [4] – General System Tamper. Tamper has been detected in a module. Entering and exiting Installer
Programming will not reset the system tampers. All tamper conditions must be physically restored.
• Light [5] – General System Supervisory. The panel has lost communication with a module connected
to the Keybus, or a wireless detector has failed to report to the PC5132 receiver within the
programmed supervisory window time (see Section 2.7 "Enable Supervision"). The event buffer will
log the event.
• Light [6] – Indicates that an RF jamminig signal has been detected for more than 30 seconds.
• Light [7] – PC5204 Low Battery. The PC5204 module has a low backup battery.
• Light [8] - PC5204 AC Failure. The PC5204 module has lost AC power.
2 AC Failure: AC power is no longer being supplied to the control panel. The trouble LED will flash if an AC
Failure is present, if the Trouble Light Flashes if AC Fails
This trouble will not be displayed if the AC Trouble Displayed
See section 5.7.5 "Communicator Reporting Codes - Maintenance" for information on AC trouble reporting.
3 Telephone Line Monitoring Trouble (TLM): There is a trouble with the telephone line (see section 5.11
"Telephone Line Monitor"). If the system has a GSM1000, this trouble can be reported to a monitoring station
by programming reporting codes in sections [349] and [350].
4 Failure to Communicate (FTC): The communicator failed to communicate with any of the programmed
telephone numbers (see section 5.3 "Communicator - Dialing").
5 Zone Fault (including Fire Zone): A zone on the system is experiencing trouble, meaning that a zone
could not provide an alarm to the panel if required to do so (if a fire zone is open, or there is a short on a
DEOL zone, or a supervisory fault on a wireless zone). When a zone fault trouble condition occurs, the
keypad(s) on the system will start to sound. The keypads will sound until a user enters a valid access
code. Press [5] while in Trouble mode to view the affected zones.
A Fire zone trouble will be generated and displayed in the armed state. A Fire zone trouble will also
restart the trouble beeps from all keypads.
6 Zone Tamper: A zone configured for Double End Of Line resistor supervision has a tamper condition, or
the tamper switch is open on a wireless device. When a tamper condition occurs, the keypad(s) will start
to sound (if the system is armed, an alarm will occur). The keypad buzzer will remain sounding until a
user enters a valid access code. Press [6] while in the Trouble mode to view the affected zones. If a zone
is tampered or faulted, it must be fully restored to clear the trouble.
7 Device Low Battery: A wireless device has a low battery condition. Press [7] one, two, or three times to
view which devices are experiencing battery failure. An ICON/LED keypad will indicate battery failure
using zone lights 1 to 8. The following will occur:
