Using Outputs for Communication Failure
When the programmed output turns on and trips the control panel zone, a communication failure is indicated at the
control panel, notifying the user. Program the output number (O1 or O2) in communication failure output within the
output options programming menu. See Communication Failure Output for programming instructions. See Figure 9a
for wiring instructions.

When wired with Output 1 programmed as the Communication Failure Output, a Communication Failure from the
communicator will put the ring terminal to ground which will cause the host panel to display a communication failure
as it normally would. See Figure 9b.
