The communicator has four on-board LED indicators. These include one yellow trouble LED, one red
network connection status LED and two green signal strength LEDs. The LED meaning is described in
this section.

Yellow Trouble LED

This yellow LED will flash to indicate a trouble on the unit. The number of flashes indicates the type of
trouble. See the table below for the coded flashes and the conditions which will activate the trouble status
LED.

5 Cellular Trouble
6 Ethernet Trouble
7 Receiver Not Available Trouble
NOTE: Only the highest priority trouble (2 flashes is the highest priority trouble) is indicated. When this
trouble is restored, the next highest trouble will indicate, if present. This will continue until all
troubles have been cleared (yellow LED is not flashing).
The following paragraphs describe the conditions associated with the trouble indicated:

Panel Supervision Trouble (2 Flashes)

This trouble will be indicated when communication between the communicator module and the panel
fails. If the module can not communicate with the panel (e.g., loss of power to the panel) the com-
municator will send the 'Panel Absent Trouble Event' message to the central station receiver. When com-
munication returns, a 'Panel Absent Restore Event' is sent by the communicator to the central station
receiver. The reporting codes are ET0001 for trouble and ER0001 for restore. The panel absent event
always uses the primary receiver account code when communicating to the central station.
