Glossary
Alarm Memory
This is the history of the most recent tampers and violations that occurred the last time the system was armed,
as well as which zones were bypassed.
Arm
Arming the system sets the system into the ARMED mode. In this mode, violating a zone will activate an alarm
condition. If the system is programmed correctly, this will cause the appropriate reporting code to be sent to the
monitoring company.
Bypass
Bypassing deactivates a zone. When the panel is ARMED, violation of a bypassed zone will be ignored.
Disarm
Disarming the system sets the system into the DISARMED mode. Fire, medical and panic functions remain active
while the system is disarmed.
Entry/Exit Zones
These are zones that you may pass through during the entry/exit delay period without triggering an alarm. Their
purpose is to provide a means by which you can exit after arming the system – and a means of getting to the
panel to disarm it after gaining access to the premises. Generally, the last exit point of the building and the first
entry point, this is the front door of the home in most cases.
Follower Zone
A zone that may be temporarily violated during the Exit Zone delay period or after a violation of an Entry/Exit
zone. This allows the user (limited time) access to disarm the system, and sufficient time to exit before arming
comes into effect. A Follower zone will behave as per an Instant zone if violated prior to the violation of an
Entry/Exit zone. Generally, a detector in a passageway between the entry zone and keypad will be setup as a
Follower Zone.
Instant Zone
When the system is armed, violation of an Instant Zone will immediately cause an alarm condition to be
registered.
Partition
A partition is a group of zones that may be armed and disarmed independently without affecting zones or users
assigned to other partitions. The Alarm Panel may have been programmed by your installer to have up to 8
partitions. Typically, a guest cottage appended to a main house may be partition 2, and the main house partition
1.
Stay Arm
This is an arming mode that allows certain pre-programmed, Stay zones to be bypassed (temporarily disabled)
while the system is armed. If you arm the system and do not leave the premises within the exit delay, the system
will assume that you are staying home and will stay arm.
Stay Arm and Go
Arming that allows the user to Stay arm and leave the premises.
Stay Zone
A zone that is bypassed automatically when the system is Stay arm
Violate
A zone is “violated” when a sensor connected to a zone input registers a door opening, a window opening,
somebody moving in the room, or glass breaking – depending on the sensor for that zone.
Zone
A zone is a specific area of your premises monitored by a sensor that detect violations (doors/windows opening
or people moving) in that area.

1. Introduction to the IDS X-Series Panels

Congratulations on your purchase of an IDS Alarm Panel to protect your most valued possessions.
The IDS X-series is a versatile and expandable range of alarm panels with 8 partitions and can be expanded to
monitor up to 64 zones depending on the model. Most features are optional and may be programmed directly
through the keypad. There is a dedicated panic zone, monitored siren output, auxiliary power outputs and 5
(expandable to 25) programmable outputs that may be programmed to perform various trigger/switching
functions. These can all be programmed by your installer.
For correct operation, these Alarm Panels must be used in conjunction with the specified transformer/battery
combination and appropriate peripheral sensors and signalling devices.
2. Before Operating Your Alarm System

 Read the entire manual carefully and keep it in an accessible place.
 Note that this is not a DIY product, and your security system should be installed and serviced by a qualified
security professional who should instruct you regarding the level of protection provided and the operation
of the system.
 Should you have any questions regarding the operation of the system, contact your installer.
 Note that your system should be tested on a regular basis. Before testing the system, please notify your
security company of your intention to do so.
 NEVER disconnect the mains power, as the back-up battery will eventually discharge thereby causing the
control panel to shutdown.
 Note that a security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and (if applicable)
you’re central monitoring station, of an emergency situation.
 Note that smoke and heat detectors may not detect all fire situations.
 This manual is not a fully detailed installation manual – the installation manual is only available to accredited
installers.
 Note that the performance of your alarm system will to a large extent be determined by the quality and
installation of the detectors attached to your panel.

Numerical Values
Simple numerical values are represented via the zone LEDs. For instance, if zone LED 15 is on, it is representing
a value of 15. This is commonly used when enabling and disabling bitmapped locations. Each zone LED directly
corresponds to a number of the same value. For numbers or information that exceeds a value of 16, binary-coded
decimal values are used, as explained in the following sections.
Reading Binary Values
Values within a data program location will be displayed by the zone LEDs in binary coded decimal format i.e. zone
LEDs 1-4 indicate units (ones) and zone LEDs 5-8 indicate tens (tens), and so on. To read a binary value on the
keypad, add up the values represented by each lit LED as shown in Table 2.
Table 2: Values Represented by each Zone LED
Zone LED Value Digit Zone LED Value Digit
Zone 1 1 Zone 9 1
Zone 2 2 Zone 10 2
Units Hundreds
Zone 3 4 Zone 11 4
Zone 4 8 Zone 12 8
Zone 5 1 Zone 13 1
Zone 6 2 Zone 14 2
Tens Thousands
Zone 7 4 Zone 15 4
Zone 8 8 Zone 16 8

11
EXAMPLE:
Imagine the following zone LEDs are on: Zone 1, Zone 3 and Zone 5.
Units are represented by the sum of Zone 1 and Zone 3 (i.e. 1 + 4).
Tens of units are represented by the value of Zone 5 (i.e. 1 x ten).
Therefore, the displayed value is (1+4) + (10) = 15.
Values within a time program location are displayed in a similar format as per Table 3.
Table 3: Binary Coded Decimal Four Digit Display
Zone LED Calculation Unit Zone LED Calculation Unit
1 (x 1 = 1) 9 (x 1 = 1)
2 (x 2 = 0) 10 (x 2 = 2)
m s
3 (x 4 = 4) 11 (x 4 = 4) Mm:Ss
4 (x 8 = 0) 12 (x 8 = 0) = 54:43
5 (x 1 = 1) 13 (x 1 = 1) m = LEDs 4 through 1
6 (x 2 = 0) 14 (x 2 = 0) M = LEDs 5 through 8
M S
7 (x 4 = 4) 15 (x 4 = 1) s = LEDs 12 through 9
8 (x 8 = 0) 16 (x 8 = 0) S = LEDs 16 through 13
Using an LCD keypad means that data and time information can be read directly without a need to convert.
3.2 Entering Data on an LED Keypad
Data is easily entered on a keypad. Below is a list of keys and their functions.
[*] – This key is used as an enter key, to confirm the data that you have inputted. It is also used to scroll to
the next sub-location.
[#] – This key is used to clear data that is incorrect. It can also be used to exit a programming option.
[F] – This key is used if there is a fire emergency. If programmed to do so, the fire reporting code will be
sent to your monitoring company.
[M] - This key is used if there is a medical emergency. If programmed to do so, the medical reporting code
will be sent to your monitoring company.
[P] - This key is used if there is an emergency situation that requires emergency personnel to respond. A
panic alarm will be transmitted to your monitoring company.
Keys marked 1 through 9, and including 0, are used to input data into the programming options.
4. The Keypad Buzzer

[#] WITH any key from [0] to [6] for 1 second
The keypad includes a buzzer that is used for audible signalling and verification of certain keypad functions. There
are 7 possible volume settings: loud being the default setting. To program the keypad volume, use Table 4.
Table 4: Keypad Buzzer Settings
Key Entry Keypad Buzzer Sound Key Entry Keypad Buzzer Tone
[#] [3] Loud (Default setting) [#] [6] 2kHz (High)
[#] [2] Medium [#] [5] 1kHz (Medium)
[#] [1] Soft [#] [4] 440Hz (Low)
[#] [0] Click
To change the volume (for this example to the “soft” setting) press the [#] and [1] keys simultaneously for 1
second (long press). After a 1-second time lapse, the keypad will respond with a beep at the new volume setting.
This is a keypad specific setting, and applies to the keypad that this operation is performed on.
All zones programmed as Chime or Buzz zones, will sound with a loud buzz regardless of the keypad volume set
above.

12
5. Arming the Control Panel
5.1 Away Arm

[#] [USER CODE]
(Leave via Entry/Exit zone)
1. Ensure that the READY LED is on. If not, check that all protected doors and windows are closed and that all
movement has ceased in areas covered by motion detectors. If necessary, close the front door.
2. Press the [#] key.
3. Enter a valid [USER CODE]. If an incorrect code is entered, the keypad buzzer will beep three times. In the
event of an error press the [#] key and re-enter the code.
4. The READY LED turns off, and the ARM LED will come on and the keypad buzzer will beep repeatedly for
the duration of the exit delay. Any bypassed zones will be indicated by a steady on zone LED.
5. Leave only via a designated exit route (leaving by any other route can set off the alarm). The panel will arm
at the end of the exit delay.
LCD Keypad
[#] [USER CODE] (Leave via Entry/Exit Zone)
1. Ensure that the LCD display reads ‘Ready to Arm’ alongside the partition number being armed. If not,
check that all protected doors and windows are closed and that all movement has ceased in areas covered
by motion detectors. If necessary, bypass any required zones and close the front door.
3. Enter a valid [USER CODE]. If an incorrect code is entered, the keypad buzzer will beep three times. In
the event of an error, press the [#] key and re-enter the code.
4. The ARM LED will come on and the keypad buzzer will sound for the duration of the exit delay. The LCD
display will read ‘Exit Delay’ alongside the partition number that is being armed. Any bypassed zones will
be displayed on the LCD display as solid text. Any violated zones will be displayed on the LCD display as
flashing text. To scroll through zones which have been bypassed or violated use the [PANIC] and [MED]
keys.
5. Leave only via a designated exit route. The panel will away arm at the end of the exit delay, if any enter/exit
zone is violated, e.g. the front door.
6. Once the panel has armed, the LCD display will read ‘Armed’ alongside the partition that has been armed.
Quick Away Arm
Hold down the [1] key until the beep
If this function is enabled, it is possible to AWAY arm by simply holding down the [1] key until the keypad buzzer
sounds and the arming process begins.
NOTE:
If the partition is already STAY armed, this key will initialise AWAY arming. It is therefore possible to change
directly from STAY arm to AWAY arm.

13
5.2 Stay Arm
Stay arming allows the user to monitor selected perimeter zones and bypass interior zones. The user can remain
on the premises with access to designated areas during the STAY ARM cycle. Any zone that may be violated
accidentally should be programmed as a BUZZ ZONE. When violated, a BUZZ ZONE will cause the keypad buzzer
to sound for 30 seconds before triggering the alarm and sounding the siren. Entering a valid USER CODE before
the siren sounds will silence the keypad buzzer and prevent the siren from sounding.
To provide greater flexibility, the panel caters for the programming of 4 different STAY PROFILES. Each STAY
PROFILE contains a unique combination of STAY, BUZZ and ALARM zones that caters for a particular STAY ARM
requirement.
EXAMPLE:
PROFILE 1 might be used when the family goes to bed in the evening. In this profile, some interior zones may be
programmed as alarm zones or buzz zones, whereas PROFILE 2 is used while watching television when all interior
zones would be bypassed.
(See How to Select a Stay Profile, under section 14.1 page 34)
How to Stay
[#] [USER CODE]
(Do not leave premises)
1. Select the required STAY PROFILE (See section 14.1 page 34).
2. Ensure that the READY LED is on, or the zones that are violated are stay zones. If not, check that all
protected doors and windows are closed and that all movement has ceased in the areas covered by motion
detectors.
4. Enter a valid [USER CODE]. If an incorrect code is entered, the keypad will give an error beep. In the event
of an error press the [#] key and re-enter the [USER CODE].
5. The READY LED turns off, and the ARM LED will come on and the keypad buzzer will sound for the duration
of the exit delay.
6. DO NOT violate the Entry/Exit zone (normally the front door). If the Entry/Exit zone is violated the system
will arm in the AWAY mode.
7. Upon expiry of the exit delay, the READY LED will remain off.
8. Any STAY zones will be automatically bypassed (indicated by a steadily on LED).
9. Ensure that you enter only those areas that are bypassed.
LCD Keypad
[#] [USER CODE] (Do not leave premises)
1. Select the required STAY PROFILE. (See Section How to Select a Stay Profile page 34)
2. Ensure that the LCD display reads ‘Ready to Arm’ alongside the partition number being armed. If not, check
that all protected doors and windows are closed and that all movement has ceased in the areas covered by
motion detectors.
4. Enter a valid [USER CODE]. If an incorrect code is entered, the keypad will give an error beep. In the event
of an error, press the [#] key and re-enter the [USER CODE].
5. DO NOT violate the Entry/Exit zone (normally the front door). If the Entry/Exit zone is violated the system
will arm in the AWAY mode.
6. The LCD Keypad will read ‘Exit Delay’, the ARM LED will come on and the keypad buzzer will sound for the
duration of the exit delay.
7. When the panel arms, any STAY zones will be automatically bypassed. These are displayed on the LCD
display as solid text. Any violated zones will be displayed on the LCD display as flashing text. To scroll
through zones which have been bypassed or violated use the [PANIC] and [MED] keys.
8. Ensure that you enter only those areas that are bypassed.

14
Quick Stay Arm
It is possible to STAY arm by holding down the [5] key until the keypad buzzer sounds. The panel will immediately
arm into the stay mode without any exit delay. All stay zones will be bypassed.
NOTE:
Holding the button down again will cause the panel to toggle between stay profiles that have zones selected to
be bypassed when stay armed. This STAY profile then becomes the active profile and the panel will STAY arm
using this profile - until you elect to switch profiles again.
Stay Profile Menu
If the option to show the stay profile menu is enabled when pressing the [5] or [6] key to stay arm will display
the stay profiles available, allowing you to choose the profile before stay arming. (Please check with your
installer)
(See How to Select a Stay Profile, under section 14.1 page 34)
How to Stay Arm and Go
This is a single key arm function that allows the user to STAY arm and leave the premises. If a partition is already
stay armed, holding down the [6] key initiates an exit delay, thus allowing the user to leave the premises without
disarming. At the end of the exit delay, the partition will re-arm in the same stay profile it was armed in before
the [6] key was held down.
1. Hold down the [6] key until the keypad buzzer sounds. The keypad buzzer will sound for the duration of the
exit delay. Only leave via a designated exit route.
2. The READY LED will turn off and the ARM LED will come on.
All stay zones will be bypassed.
NOTE:
Holding down the [6] key until the keypad buzzer sounds also ensures an entry delay on entering the premises.
LCD Keypad
(Hold down the [6] key for two seconds until the keypad buzzer sounds)
This is a single key arm function, which allows the user to STAY arm and leave the premises.
If a partition is already stay armed, holding down the [6] key initiates an exit delay, thus allowing the user to
leave the premises without disarming. At the end of the exit delay, the partition will re-arm in the same stay
profile it was armed in before the [6] key was held down.
1. Make sure all zones are clear. Hold down the [6] key until the keypad buzzer sounds. The LCD display
reads ‘Exit Delay’ alongside the partition number being armed. Any zones that have been bypassed will be
displayed on the LCD display as solid text. Any zones that are violated will be displayed on the LCD display
as flashing text. Use the [PANIC] and [MED] keys to scroll through zones that have been bypassed or
violated. The keypad buzzer will sound for the duration of the exit delay. Only leave via a designated exit
route.
2. At the end of the exit delay, the ARM LED will come on and the display will read ‘Stay Armed’. All stay
zones will be bypassed.
Stay Profile Menu
If the option to show the stay profile menu is enabled when pressing the [5] or [6] key to stay arm will display
the stay profiles available, allowing you to choose the profile before stay arming. (Please check with your
installer)

5.3 Key-switch or Remote Arming (If Fitted)
1. Ensure that the READY LED is on before leaving.
2. Leave the premises and lock the door.
3. Activate the remote or the key-switch. (A remote can be used to Away Arm.) The panel will arm in the
away mode.
LCD Keypad
1. Ensure that the LCD display reads ‘Ready to Arm’ before leaving.
2. Leave the premises and lock the door.
3. Activate the remote or the key-switch. A remote can be used to Stay Arm or Away Arm.
4. The alarm will arm in the away mode.
NOTE:
If a remote control is used it is advisable to either have the siren toot on arm function enabled, or to use a Remote
Arm/Disarm LED Unit at the entry/exit point (P/N: 862-84-10). This provides verification that the system has
armed. (Speak to your installer about this feature).
5.4 Auto Arm
The panel may be programmed to arm automatically at a pre-programmed time. Should the premises be
occupied at the time of auto-arming, a valid user code entered during the pre-arm delay will terminate the arming
sequence. The pre-arm delay is signalled by an exit beep.
NOTE:
This can be enabled via the maintenance code, see section 20 page 40.
6. Disarming the Control Panel
6.1 How to Disarm with a User Code

[#] [USER CODE]
1. Enter the premises through a designated entry route. Entering via any other route will cause an alarm.
2. As soon as the Entry/Exit zone is violated, the entry delay will begin. The keypad buzzer will sound for the
duration of the entry period.
3. Press the [#] key and enter a valid [USER CODE].
4. Once the system disarms, the ARM LED will turn off and the keypad buzzer will stop sounding.
5. If no valid user code has been entered prior to the expiry of the entry delay period an alarm condition will
be registered.
6. If the entry period is too short, have your installer change the entry delay period.
NOTE:
If a strobe (or flashing light) has been installed and an alarm condition is registered, the strobe will continue
flashing after the siren has stopped sounding. Entering a valid user code will cancel the strobe.
6.2 How to Disarm Using a Key-switch or Remote
1. Activate the remote or key-switch. (The blue button on the IDS remote, unless otherwise programmed).
2. The system will disarm and the armed LED indicator (if installed) will turn off. If the siren toot on disarm
option is enabled, the siren will provide a double toot when the panel is disarmed.
7. Bypassing Zones
 The term BYPASS is used to describe a zone that has been deactivated; i.e. violation of a bypassed zone,
whilst the system is armed, is ignored and will not cause an alarm condition.
 Once the system is armed, it is not possible to bypass zones.
 All bypassed zones will be automatically cancelled each time the panel is disarmed and must be re-bypassed
before the next arming.
 To permanently bypass ones, create a stay profile and the zone. Refer to section 14 Stay Zones page 34.

16
7.1 Bypassing/Un-bypassing a Zone

Section: 9
9.1 Event Log

This is ONLY viewable on a LCD Keypad; it does NOT work on an LED keypad.
When you view event logs, the LCD display reads as follows:
“HH:MM DD/MM/YYYY”
“eeeeeeeeee p ddd”
Where;
HH:MM = event time MM-DD- YYYY = event date
eeeeeeeeee = event description p = partition event occurred in (if applicable)
ddd = event data (if applicable)
1. The system time and date need to be setup correctly in order for the event log to pull the correct
information. These can be setup in options 40 and 41.
2. When the event log menu is entered, a reference will be taken of the last event recorded. Any event prior
to this reference may be viewed by scrolling back (with the [MED] key) but if the user decides to scroll
forward (with the [PANIC] key) then just events up to and including this reference point will be viewable.
3. If no event is encountered then the second line will appear as “No Event - ---”.
4. Pressing [6] followed by [*] after the event log viewing is already active will reset the menu to the most
recent event.
5. Each event description will be followed by two numbered fields if further data is applicable to describe an
event. The first number is the partition number within which the event occurred. The second number will
either be the zone or user number associated with the event type.
Below is an example of how an event will be displayed on the two-line IDS LCD keypad.

Master User
When assigned to a user, this property allows the user to act as a Master User. Master User Code has full access
to programming all the user options.
Duress Code
 This is a special 4 (default) or 6-digit user code (check the code length with your installer) and should only
be used in the unique situation where an intruder forces one to disarm the system "under duress".
 When the [DURESS CODE] is entered, the control panel disarms normally - however a DURESS
REPORTING CODE is transmitted to the monitoring company to inform them that you have been forced to
disarm the control panel by an intruder.
 It is advisable to choose a code that can easily be remembered by all family (or staff) members.
Arm to Disarm Code [Maid's Code]
This property may be used to limit access to the premises. A maid's code will only disarm the system if the same
code was used for arming. If armed with a code other than this code, the system will view an attempt to disarm
using a maid's code as an invalid entry. Any valid user code will disarm the system if it has been armed with a
maid’s code.
Arm Only Code
This code will arm the partitions assigned to the user depending on their status. If all partitions are disarmed,
entering an arm code will arm all of the assigned partitions. In a case where some partitions are armed and
others disarmed, entering this group code at the keypad of the disarmed partition will arm the disarmed
partitions only.

25
Disarm Only Code
This code will disarm the partitions assigned to the user depending on their status. If all partitions are armed,
entering a group code will disarm all of the assigned partitions. In a case where some partitions are disarmed
and others armed, entering this group code at the keypad of the armed partition will disarm the armed
partitions only.
Global Arm/ Disarm Code
When there is more than one partition, and all are disarmed, entering a global code will arm all partitions that
are ready to arm. If all partitions are armed then entering a global code will disarm all partitions. Where some
partitions are armed and other partitions are disarmed then entering a global code at the keypad of an armed
partition will disarm all partitions. Similarly, entering a global code at the keypad of a disarmed partition will arm
all partitions, if they are ready to arm. A remote transmitter programmed with a global code will arm all disarmed
partitions when the arm/disarm button is pressed, if they are ready to arm.
NOTE:
A partition that is not ready to arm, for instance one with a zone violation, will NOT arm with the global
arm/disarm code.
Programmable Output Code
This user property enables the use of various programmable outputs to perform home automation actions,
such as turning on lights, switches, motors, etc. Any event which is able to trigger a programmable output can
be assigned to an output number from 1 to 41. Assigning an event to outputs 1 to 5 will use the panel’s
onboard outputs 1 to 5. Assigning an event to outputs 6 to17 will use an output on a zone expander, 18-33 are
reserved, and 34-41 will use an output on a keypad. Refer to section 12.11 for details on using programmable
outputs.

14. Stay Zones
Stay zones are those zones that are bypassed automatically when the system is “STAY ARMED”. Any zone that
should not trigger an alarm when violated in stay mode must be programmed as a stay zone.
Stay zones need only be programmed once. Each time the system is armed in the Stay Mode the pre-selected
stay zones will be bypassed automatically. The panel allows for 4 unique STAY PROFILES to be stored, consisting
of a pre-selected combination of STAY and BUZZ zones, to suit a specific STAY ARM requirement. STAY and BUZZ
zones can be programmed for each profile only once the particular profile has been selected. See section 14.2.
NOTE:
Stay arming with the [5] key does not change the current stay profile.
However, if a partition is stay armed using Stay Profile 1, it is possible to toggle the panel directly to Stay Arm
Profile two by holding the [5] key for two seconds until a beep is heard.
EXAMPLE:
 Stay Profile 1 – used for when the family has gone to bed, and only the bedroom zones are bypassed.
 Stay Profile 2 – used for family time at home. All internal zones are bypassed; but the window, door, and
outdoor zones are armed.
 Stay Profile 3 – used for during the day when there is activity. In this instance, only the perimeter will be
armed.

Alternatively use the [PANIC] or [MED] keys to scroll through the zones.
5. A [Y] next to a zone number indicates that that particular zone is programmed as a stay zone.
NOTE:
Buzz zones will be shown by flashing LEDs. (See Section How to Program Stay Zones). A Buzz zone cannot
be selected as a Stay Zone. The Buzz status must be cleared first.
7. Repeat steps 4 - 6 until the all the required Stay zones are programmed/cancelled..
8. Press the [#] key to exit the Stay zone programming mode
NOTE:
 Panic zones cannot be selected as Stay zones.
 Buzz zones (shown by flashing LEDs), cannot be selected as Stay zones. The Buzz status must be cleared first.
15. Buzz Zones

Violation of a Buzz zone when Stay Armed will cause the keypad buzzer to sound for a period of 30 seconds
during which time a valid user code must be entered. If a valid user code is not entered during this period, the
system will register an alarm condition. This feature helps prevent unnecessary false alarms.
NOTE:
If an Entry/Exit zone is programmed as a Buzz zone, violation of the Entry/Exit zone (when the panel is Stay
Armed) will cause the keypad buzzer to sound for the duration of the entry delay time (in place of the default 30
seconds). This, if the panel is Stay Armed, allows the user to enter the premises and disarm the panel. If it is not
programmed as a Buzz zone, the alarm will be triggered immediately. If the panel was stay armed, a violation of
the Entry/Exit zone will always start the Entry/Exit delay. Any Entry/Exit zone programmed as a Buzz zone will
not buzz.

8 Box tamper 16 Zone Tamper
16.1 Explanation of Trouble Conditions
Panel AC Supply Failure
This occurs when your Alarm Panel does not receive any power from your mains electricity. Causes of this can
be a power failure, or your transformer is not plugged in or faulty. Your alarm company might not receive your
panic or alarm signal. Make sure to test your system.
This trouble condition will only clear once the power has been restored.
Panel Communications Failure
This occurs when communication to your monitoring company is not successful.
The event will clear upon exiting the trouble viewing mode. If the event is a regular occurrence contact your
installer.
Telephone Line Trouble
The causes of this could be a fault, or short, on your phone line; or your phone line could be cut.
Contact your installer. This trouble condition will only clear once the phone line restored.

37
Siren Tamper
This can occur when the siren has been removed from circuit or the siren fuse on the panel has blown. Your
siren will not sound and you or your neighbours will not be alerted if the alarm is violated.
Contact your installer. This trouble condition will only clear once the siren has been reconnected or the fuse
has been replaced.
Low Battery
This trouble condition can be caused by a low battery voltage, a dead battery, or no battery. If the battery is
there, try charging it. If this not does work, then you may have to buy a new battery. A battery is an official
accessory, as it supplies backup power to your Alarm Panel. Batteries have a defined lifecycle and regular
charging and discharging shortens this. You should regularly replace your battery.
Contact your installer. This trouble condition will only clear once the battery voltage has been restored.
Aux 12V Resettable Fuse Blown
This trouble condition indicates that the fuse has blown, or that there is a fault.
Contact your installer. This trouble condition will only clear once the fault has been restored.
Engineer Reset
An alarm condition has occurred, the installer needs to come and clear the condition by entering an installer
code. The panel cannot be armed until this has occurred, nor will the trouble condition clear.
Box Tamper
The metal housing where the panel is stored has been opened. To clear trouble condition, make sure the door
to the housing is closed and then view the trouble condition.
Peripheral Device Tamper
Your peripheral device could be a keypad, remote receiver or bus-wired zone expander. This trouble condition
indicates that one of these devices has been tampered with. If the problem persists, contact your installer
immediately.
To clear this trouble condition, restore the tampered device and then view the tamper.
Peripheral Communications Failure
The panel has lost communication to one of the peripherals attached to it, and an intrusion may not be
detected. Contact your installer.
Peripheral Low Supply Voltage
Supply voltage to a peripheral has dropped below the recommended limit. Contact your installer.
Wireless Detector Battery low
A wireless detector has indicated that its battery voltage is low and needs to be changed
Wireless Detector Supervision Failure
A wireless device has not checked in with the alarm panels wireless receiver in the required time. This could be
caused by a flat battery in the device, removal of the device or the signal being blocked.
Wireless Receiver Jam
A signal at the same frequency as the detectors has been detected and could stop the wireless devices from
communicating with the wireless receiver
Wireless Detector RSSI Trouble
This indicates a wireless device has communicated to the wireless receiver and the signal strength was below
the required minimum.
Zone Tamper
A device wired or wireless has been interfered with, either opened or removed from its mountings, etc.
