Dealing with a sensor False Alarm
The Control Panel reports alarm conditions on all sensors when armed both visually (on the
status bar, and through a system alert icon) and audibly (through voice and chime
announcements). There are times, though rare, that an sensor will send an alarm condition to
the Control Panel when no alarm exists. The conditions of a false alarm vary depending on the
type of sensor and how that sensor communicates with the Control Panel.
• Perform a System, Sensor, and Panel Test to find any false alarm conditions. See "System
Test" on page 31. See "Sensor Test" on page 31. See "Panel Test" on page 32.
