A display of LO 6A T and one or more zone numbers and descriptors,
accompanied by a “tone” every 60 seconds at the console: A low battery
condition exists in a wireless sensor/transmitter. We recommend that the battery be
replaced as soon as possible. The warning tones can be silenced by keying an
OFF sequence (Code plus OFF). After the new battery has been installed, the low
battery message display should clear within approximately 1 hour.
A display of SYSTEM LO BAT with no zone numbers: This indicates that the
system back-up battery has a low battery condition. If there is no apparent cause
for this (such as AC power having been cut off for an extended period, or an alarm
having caused the external sounder to be activated for a long period), CALL FOR
SERVICE.
On some consoles, a POWER indicator, when off, indicates that AC power to the
system is off and it is operating on the back-up battery. On other consoles, the
message “AC POWER LOSS” (cycled on and off approximately every 30 seconds
with otfier messages that are present) will be displayed when AC”power fails and the
system is operating on battery power only.
If only some lights are out on the premises, check circuit breakers and fuses and reset
or replace as necessary.
CALL FOR SERVICE if AC power cannot be restored.
