Status warnings

Telephone line monitoring

If the telephone line is faulty or becomes disconnected, the home unit will announce
'WARNING – the telephone line is disconnected' after 1 minute and the green LED
flashes. This warning will be repeated every 30 seconds until the telephone line
becomes available again.
To silence the warning, re-connect the telephone line. If the telephone line is
connected and the warning continues, press the green cancel button. If the warning
continues you should contact your telephone line supplier (e.g. BT) as the telephone
line may be faulty.

Power failure monitoring

If a power failure occurs, the home unit will continue to work using its back-up
battery, however, as a warning the red LED will flash once every 4 seconds (see
section – what the lights on the unit indicates). The unit will also announce
'WARNING – there is no mains power'. This warning is repeated every 5 minutes. To
silence the warning reconnect the power lead.
If the power failure lasts for more than 1 hour, during the next hour the unit will
automatically call the monitoring centre. A call will be raised every 4 hours to the
monitoring centre until the power is restored. The battery provides 40 hours back-up.
