Fault records by panel

Most likely to occur in the event of a broken network connection, i.e. short or open circuit cable or broken optical fibre. May also indicate an NGM PCB hardware fault. There would normally be two fault messages, one at…

The source states this fault has the same cause and remedy as 'ID2net: Channel 1 Link Fault' — see that entry.

Displayed only if the NGM PCB stopped working after a period of working correctly. If this is not quickly followed by the Network startup fault message, the NGM PCB has successfully re-started. Action (shared with…

Displayed if either: a. the NGM PCB fails to start initially, or b. the NGM PCB fails to start after the occurrence of a runtime fault, such as a panel/NGM PCB communication loss. Action (shared with Network runtime…

A network fault has occurred causing the panel to ignore data from network CH1. Not available on some panel options.

There is a fault in the network card's isolated power supply; replace the card.

A network fault has occurred causing the panel to ignore data from network CH2. Not available on some panel options.

The communications link between the local network card and the core network card is faulty. Not available on some panel options.

The panel has an event to transmit but the network master panel is not permitting it to transmit. This fault will be reported by duplicate panels.

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…

Per the manual, a steady yellow Network Fault indicator means a system network error has occurred. Action listed: call the service engineer.

This message indicates an open circuit on the power fault input of the NGM. Action: Check for missing or broken wiring. Check that the PSU is not faulty.

The configuration data received by the network card is corrupt.

One or more panels has its network CH1 and CH2 wiring reversed.

There is a memory corruption in the network card; replace the card.

The network has unexpectedly lost the master panel, so another panel has automatically been assigned as master until the problem is fixed.

Action: Check the transmission line; check the faulty 'Station'.

The physical order of the panels does not match the order downloaded to the master panel.

See loop-comms diagnostic section of the manual for details.

If a control panel previously configured to be in the fire network is not detected, a fault message indicating the offline status (with the Firenet ID) is reported. From the ZP2 Series Installation Manual, "Firenet…

Fault in the connection with another panel, when two or more panels are connected in a network.

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…

Yellow FIRE OUTPUT indicator, flashing: the manual says a fault condition is present on a monitored relay circuit or on the addressable device loop outputs. Continuous means a device or action associated with the…

Yellow LOOP indicator, flashing: the manual says a fault condition is present on one or more addressable device loops, or one or more addressable devices. Continuous means a device or an action associated with the…

Yellow POWER FAULT indicator, continuous: the manual says a battery supply or charger fault has been detected, and to check the fuse and the battery voltages.

Yellow POWER FAULT indicator, flashing: the manual says the mains supply has failed, and to check the fuse and the 230 V AC supply on the PCB AC terminals.

Yellow SOUNDER indicator, flashing: the manual says a fault condition is present on a monitored sounder circuit or on the addressable device loop sounders. Continuous means a device or action associated with the…

Yellow SYSTEM FAULT indicator, flashing: the manual says it indicates the presence of a processor or a checksum error. Power the system down to clear, reprogram all settings and test the system.

When a repeater fault is displayed, press and hold ENTER: a fast flash of the Repeater Fault LED indicates a network cable error.
