The occurrence of a false alarm may be due to various factors. In order to determine the source of a false alarms, keep accurate records including time, date,
weather conditions, activities in area, etc. Consult the following table for possible solutions to false alarm conditions.

Possible Problem
Red LED
Shorted signal Output Loss of Power
Loose Wire(s)
Internal power fault or System power
out of range
VI (visual integrity) fault
Background UV source
Background IR source
Solid Manual VI test (adequate)
Solid Manual VI test (good)
Solid Manual VI test (excellent)
Possible Solution
Check wiring Check fuses (3 AMP fuse on bottom PCB) (any in-line power fuse).
Check power source at unit
Check power supply.
Clean window (use Net Safety Monitoring Lens cleaner only). Check for obstruction(s) within
Field of View. Check reflector position and alignment Check UV / IR source bulb.
If 4-20 output is not used, jumper it to negative PWR(Com-); close current loop.
Confirm external UV source by covering detector window so it is blind to all radiation. - If
signal goes away, background UV is present. Field of View should be cleared of UV
sources/activities (i.e., cracked lenses on sodium/mercury vapour bulbs, welding, grinding,
flare stacks, etc.); realign detector coverage area; redefine Time Delay; reset Sensitivity
setting. - If signal persists, electrical wiring or detector electronics may be at fault
Confirm external IR source by covering detector window so it is blind to all radiation. - If
signal goes away, background IR is present. Field of View should be cleared of IR
sources/activities (i.e., hot bodied sources like manifolds, heaters, etc); (realign detector
coverage area; redefine Time Delay; reset Sensitivity setting. - If signal persists, electrical
wiring or detector electronics may be at fault
Clean all optical surfaces (use Net Safety Monitoring Lens cleaner only)
No action required, optics are moderately clean
No action required, all optical surfaces are perfectly clean
