5.1 Reviewing the Alarm / Tamper
Memory Content
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:
R E A D Y
(alternating)
R E A D Y
or, if the system is not ready for arming -
N O T R E A D Y
(alternating)
N O T R E A D Y M E M O R Y
B. Investigating Alarm/Tamper Data
You can review the memory content, by clicking 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 the <SHOW/OK>
button, the display will either show details of other events
retained in memory (if any), or will revert to its initial state
(see A above).
EXAMPLE 2: An alarm was triggered because the garage
door - zone No. 12 - opened, but was left open.
Action
Remember! The memory indication and content are
cleared upon the next arming of the system.

5.2 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. The states of trouble
can be divided into sensor / transmitter troubles and
system troubles.
SENSOR/TRANSMITTER TROUBLES
Sound
• Sensor inactivity - No radio signals have been received
from a particular sensor throughout a pre-defined period.
• Low battery - The battery in a wireless device (sensor
or hand-held transmitter) is near the end of its useful life.
SYSTEM TROUBLES
• AC Supply Failure - The mains power has been cut off
and the system is working on backup battery power (this
trouble is reported 5 minutes after its occurrence).
• System Jammed - A radio-frequency signal is blocking
the channel via which the sensors communicate with the
control panel.
