Fault codes and messages

6 records

Fire Protection Fault

Source-checked

Communication trouble with Fire Control or Fire Fighting equipment

The yellow Fire Protection Fault indicator illuminates constantly to advise the user that the panel is having trouble communicating to optional Fire Control or Fire Fighting (Extinguishing) Equipment.

Fire Routing Fault

Source-checked

Fault on the monitored circuit to Fire Routing equipment

The yellow Fire Routing Fault/Disabled indicator flashes when there is a fault on the monitored circuit to the Fire Routing equipment. The system maintenance company should be contacted as soon as possible to identify the problem. (The same indicator shows constant, rather than flashing, when the output has instead been manually disabled — a separate, intentional state.)

General Fault

Source-checked

System not operating as expected

The yellow General Fault indicator flashes when the system is not operating as expected. The system maintenance company should be contacted as soon as possible to identify the problem.

Power On indicator off

Source-checked

Loss of both mains and battery power

The green Power On indicator should always be illuminated. If it is off, both mains power and the internal batteries have failed — the system maintenance company should be contacted immediately.

Sounder Fault

Source-checked

Problem with a sounder — may not operate in an emergency

The yellow Sounder Fault/Disabled indicator flashes if there is a problem with any sounder; the sounders may not operate in an emergency situation, so the system maintenance company should be contacted as soon as possible. (The same indicator shows constant, rather than flashing, when a sounder has instead been manually disabled by the user — a separate, intentional state.)

System Fault

Source-checked

Serious fault with panel microprocessor or memory

The yellow System Fault indicator flashes when there is a serious fault with the panel microprocessor or memory components. The system maintenance company should be contacted as soon as possible to identify the problem.
