Communicator Troubles displayed on a HS2016/2032/2064/2128

The communication trouble is the only trouble that will appear on the keypad Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) when encountered

by a communicator installed in a HS2016/2032/2064/2128. For more information about the trouble on the communicator mod-

ule refer to the panel event buffer or by accessing *2 to view the individual trouble types. Log entry will show Fault or Restore for

each of the following events:

Alt comm SIM lock Trouble/Restore

Alt. comm Cellular Trouble/Restore

Alt. comm Ethernet Trouble/Restore

Alt. comm Fault/Restore

Alt comm Receiver (1-4) Absent/Restore

Alt comm Receiver (1-4) Supervision Trouble/Restore

Alt comm Receiver (1-4) FTC Trouble/Restore

NOTE: When Panel displays "Alternate Fault", communicator programming is not accessible via the keypad.

The communicator has 2 on-board LED indicators: a yellow trouble LED and a red network connection status LED.

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.

# of

Flashes

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 communicator will send the 'Panel Absent Trouble Event'

message to the central station receiver. When communication returns, a 'Panel Absent Restore Event' is sent by the com-

municator 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.

NOTE: The panel supervision trouble/restore are internally generated events by the communicator. Trouble is generated if the

communicator misses 6 polls. Trouble is restored on receipt of first poll from the panel.
