TROUBLE DISPLAY

The Spectra system continuously monitors fourteen possible trouble conditions. When a trouble condition occurs, the [
button or [

The control panel performs a dynamic battery test under load every 60 seconds. This trou-
ble indicates that the back-up battery is disconnected or that the battery should be
replaced, as it will not provide adequate back-up current in case of AC loss. This trouble
will also appear when the control panel is running on battery power and the battery voltage
has dropped to 10.5 volts or lower. This means the battery must be recharged or replaced.
This means the battery voltage of a Liberator wireless transmitter has dropped to 6.5V or
less. Also, the yellow LED on the transmitter can flash to indicate this trouble. The bat-
tery should be replaced.
Upon power failure, the AC LED on all keypads will turn off. The control panel can trans-
mit the report code programmed in section [205]. This report code can be delayed by
programming a Power Failure Report Delay in section [086]. The AC LED turns back on
as soon as power is restored.
There is no bell or siren connected to the bell output terminals of the control panel or there
is no device connected to the PGM2 terminals (1755, 1755EX, 1758 and 1758EX only). If
you are not using the
avoid this, connect a 1KΩ resistor across the bell or PGM2 output.
The
output uses a fuseless circuit and will automatically shut down if the current
BELL
exceeds 3A with a 1725, 1725EX, 1728, or 1728EX or 2.5A with a 1755, 1755EX, 1758,
or 1758EX . After opening the short or reducing the load, the bell current is restored upon
the following alarm generation. This trouble indicator will only appear when a condition has
occured that would activate the bell output (e.g. during an alarm).
The auxiliary output uses a fuseless circuit to protect the power supply against current
overload and automatically shuts down if the current exceeds 1.1A. After opening the
short or reducing the load, the panel will restore power to the auxiliary output.
The control panel has failed all attempts to communicate with the central monitoring station.
The control panel's internal clock must be re-programmed. To re-program the timer press the
[8] key and enter the current time using the 24-hour clock (i.e. 8:30PM = 20:30).
If the Tamper Recognition options are enabled, this trouble indicates a wiring problem on
one or more zones or that the cover has been removed on one or more wireless transmit-
ters. In order to provide line short recognition the zone connections must have EOL resis-
tors. If you press the [9] key, the keypad will display which zones are in trouble.
If the Telephone Line Monitoring (TLM) feature is enabled (see section [135]), this trouble
indicates that the control panel has not detected the presence of a telephone line for 30 sec.

pad to terminate the "beeping" sequence. When communication has been restored, the
