Safety Features
The controller board stores the controller's address, applications, and point values. In the
event of a power failure or a reset, these values are retrieved from the controller's permanent
memory and are used by the controller unless overridden by a field panel. If one of the
following conditions occurs, the controller will activate safety features present in its fail-safe
mode.
•
Sensor failure.
•
Loss of power. Upon controller power loss, communication with the controller is also
lost. The controller will appear as failed (
Controller LEDs
To determine if the controller is powered up and working, verify that the Basic Sanity Test
(BST) Light Emitting Diode (LED) is flashing ON/OFF once per second. The controller
contains eleven LEDs located on the circuit board. See the Controller LED lndicators section
of Chapter 1, Product Overview for more information about LEDs.
