Fault records by panel

Message shown on the ID50/ID60 panel. The manual's Appendix 3 gives the meaning as: A fault with the auxiliary supply has been detected. Action listed in the manual: Check the auxiliary voltage and any associated wiring.

As given in the source's own event table: "Short circuit (the mains power supply is lost)" — the source's wording for this entry is terse and possibly abbreviated; quoted as written rather than expanded.

Parameterised message covering auxiliary outputs 1 and 2 (X = 1 or 2), as printed in the source ('Aux. Output 1 Fault'; 'Aux. Output 2 Fault'). Indicates a failure of the auxiliary drive circuits, not the attached…

For VIEW, MULTI (Optiplex), or SMART sensors: the analogue reading is below the Chamber fault threshold, or below the Maintenance Urgent threshold, or a Maintenance Alert has existed for longer than 100 days without any…

The "Alarm Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip. This is one of the labelled LED indicators on the 6500 control panel's front fascia, confirmed directly from Protec's own product photography. The brochure…

The "Alarm Routing Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip, covering the alarm signalling/routing path (e.g. to an ARC or monitoring centre). This is one of the labelled LED indicators on the 6500 control panel's…

The "Aux Supply Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip, covering the panel's auxiliary power supply. This is one of the labelled LED indicators on the 6500 control panel's front fascia, confirmed directly from…

The "Fire Protection Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip, covering fire protection outputs (e.g. suppression or protection-related outputs) configured on the system. This is one of the labelled LED indicators…

The "Network Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip, covering the panel-to-panel network connection used when multiple 6500 panels are networked together. This is one of the labelled LED indicators on the 6500…

The "Power Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip, covering the panel's own power supply. This is one of the labelled LED indicators on the 6500 control panel's front fascia, confirmed directly from Protec's own…

The "System Fault" LED on the 6500 panel's indicator strip. This is one of the labelled LED indicators on the 6500 control panel's front fascia, confirmed directly from Protec's own product photography. The brochure…

Yellow Earth Fault indicator on the ZX series panel: an earth connection fault has occurred on a cable. To clear it, correct the fault condition and then perform a panel reset (page 7). The alphanumeric display shows a…

Yellow EARTH FAULT indicator, flashing: the manual says an earth fault has been detected where a path exists from the circuit wiring to earth. Remove circuits one at a time to discover which one, and then rectify.

Yellow SYSTEM FAULT indicator, continuous: the manual says it indicates the presence of a processor or a checksum error. To clear it, power the system down, reprogram all settings and test the system. During a system…

The manual lists several reasons for the zone fault LED to light: a device has been removed from that zone; a device has been changed for one of a different type; there is a double address in the zone; or a device in…

'Fire control line' fault. Action: Check the line for open line/short-circuit; check the function of the external control devices; check the function of any existing feedback switch.

The manual says a fault has been detected with the auxiliary 24 V supply output of the 6100. There may no longer be an auxiliary supply to external devices, or the auxiliary devices are drawing too much current. The…

Per the manual, if the panel detects a short circuit or leakage current to earth/screen from one of its supply rails (0 V or +Ve) an Earth Fault is displayed. The normal voltage between 0 V and Earth SCRN is 1.7 V; the…

Per the manual, if the panel detects a short circuit to earth/screen from one of its supply rails (0 V or +ve) an Earth Fault is displayed. Remove the circuit cables one at a time and reset the system: when the faulty…

Yellow EARTH FAULT indicator, flashing: the manual says an earth fault has been detected where a path exists from the circuit wiring to earth; remove circuits one at a time to discover which one, and then rectify. An…

This indicates the auxiliary supply has a fault.

Flashes yellow when there is a fault on the output's auxiliary 24V supply — typically because the 24V auxiliary output (used to supply relays switched by the remote output) is overloaded and its protection fuse has…

Lit whenever any fault condition exists on the panel. One documented specific cause: if the buzzer sounds and the General Fault light is lit steadily with no other cause found, the panel has been left in a test mode —…

Added to the event log when one or more event types (alarm, zone alarm, fault, condition, etc.) exceed the maximum limit of 512 events per type — this limit applies at panel level and per system, including repeater…

Per the manual, if the system faces a loop -ve open circuit during initialisation, initialisation does not fail at that point but continues to the end of the loop and all devices are operational (as long as no other…

Per the manual, if the system faces a loop +ve to -ve short circuit or a loop +ve open circuit during initialisation, initialisation fails at that point and a message of Loop not complete is displayed. Devices up to…

Per the manual, if the system faces a loop -ve open circuit during initialisation, initialisation continues to the end of the loop and all devices are operational (as long as no other faults exist). A message of…
