READING ALARM MEMORY AND TROUBLE DATA

5. READING ALARM MEMORY AND TROUBLE DATA

Reviewing Alarm/Tamper Memory

The PowerMax+ retains in its memory alarm and
"tamper" events that occurred during the last arming
period.
Note: Alarms enter the memory only after expiry of
the "abort period" (see Appendix A). This means that
if you disarm the system immediately - before the
abort period expires - there will be no memory
indication.
A. Alarm / Tamper Indications
When the memory contains at least one event and
the system is in the disarmed state, a flashing
MEMORY message will be displayed as exemplified:
READY
(alternating)
READY
or, if the system is not ready for arming -
NOT READY
(alternating)
NOT READY
B. Investigating Alarm/Tamper Data
To review memory content, click the SHOW/OK
button.
EXAMPLE 1: An alarm was triggered because the
garage door - zone No. 12 - opened but then re-
closed. In addition, the bedroom motion detector -
zone No. 7 - sent a "Tamper" message because its
cover had been removed.

In response to additional clicking of <SHOW/OK>
button, the display show details of other events
retained in memory (if any), or reverts to its initial
state (see A above).

Reviewing Trouble Information

A. Trouble Indications
If TRBL flashes in the display, the TROUBLE
indicator illuminates, and 3 beeps are sounded once
per minute, you will have to investigate the system in
order to find out the origin and type of trouble at
hand. Trouble types are:
SENSOR / KEYFOB / WIRELESS COMMANDER
TROUBLES
• Inactivity - No radio signals have been received
from a particular sensor / wireless commander (if
its supervision feature has been enabled) during a
pre-defined period.
• Low battery - The battery in a sensor, keyfob or
wireless commander is near the end of its useful
life.
• "Clean me" - The fire detector must be cleaned.
• Gas trouble - Gas detector failure.
• Siren AC failure - There is no power to the siren.
• X-10 trouble - An activation command was sent to
a two-way X-10
implementation confirmation (acknowledgement)
was not received.
GSM TROUBLES (if used)
• GSM AC failure - No power to GSM unit.
• GSM low battery - GSM battery voltage is low.
• GSM tamper- Someone tampered with the GSM
unit.
