Troubleshooting<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Trouble [1] Low Battery<\/td>\nThe main panel battery is below 11.5 VDC. The trouble condition will not clear until the battery is at least 12.5VDC under load.<\/td>\n\n
    \n
  • If the battery is new, allow 1 hour for the battery to charge.<\/li>\n
  • Ensure the panel is getting proper AC power. Measure across the two AC terminals of the panel and ensure the AC input is between 16 and 18VAC. If not, replace the transformer.<\/li>\n
  • To verify the battery charging circuit disconnect the battery and measure the voltage across the two battery leads. The voltage should be 13.75VDC.<\/li>\n
  • With the battery connected remove AC from the panel and measure across the battery terminals. If the voltage is below 12.5VDC replace the battery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Trouble [2] Bell Circuit<\/td>\nThere is an open circuit between Bell+ and Bell-<\/td>\n\n
    \n
  • Remove the wires from Bell+ and Bell- and measure the resistance of the wires. If an open circuit is measured there is a break in the wiring or the siren is defective.<\/li>\n
  • Put a 1K resistor (brown, black, red) across Bell+ and Bell- to verify the trouble condition clears.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Trouble [3]General System Trouble<\/td>\nAn open circuit is present on output #1 of the PC5204 module<\/td>\n\n
    \n
  • If the output is not being used make sure a 1K resistor (brown, black, red) is connected between O1 and AUX+.<\/li>\n
  • If the output is being used remove the wires from O1 and AUX+ and measure the resistance of the wires. If an open circuit is measured there is a break in the wiring or the device connected is defective.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The PC5204 has an AUX failure<\/td>\n\n
    \n
  • Ensure the module is getting proper AC power. Measure across the two AC terminals of the module and ensure the AC input is between 16 and 18VAC. If not, replace the transformer.<\/li>\n
  • Remove all devices connected to the AUX+ terminal of the PC5204 and measure the voltage between AUX+ and BLK of the KEYBUS. If the voltage is below 13.75VDC the module is defective.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The printer connected to the PC5400 is off-line<\/td>\n\n
    \n
  • Check the connected printer for trouble (no power, out of paper, jam etc\u2026).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The wireless receiver has detected excessive noise in the 433MHz range (Power432, 632, 832 only)<\/td>\n\n
    \n
