GE 60-960-95 Home Security System User Manual


 
Concord Ultra 72
Touchpad indicates [sensor #] supervisory and/or Sensor [sensor #] supervisory is heard.
1. Use an RF Sniffer (60-401) to verify that sensor is transmitting. If sensor is not transmitting,
check battery for low or no voltage and replace.
2. Change mounting position of sensor (from horizontal to vertical or vice versa) and test sensor
several times for consistency.
3. Sensor signal is not reaching panel/receiver because sensor is too far away. Remove sensor
from mounted location and test from other locations. Mount sensor in area where signal can
reach panel/receiver.
Smoke sensor beeps once every 44 seconds.
Sensor batteries are getting low. Replace batteries.
Wireless Touchpads
System doesn’t respond to commands entered from wireless touchpad.
1. Verify that receiver antennas are installed and connections are secure.
2. Check that touchpad battery(s) are properly installed.
3. Check the touchpad battery(s) for low voltage. Replace battery(s), if necessary.
4. Use an RF Sniffer (60-401) to verify that touchpad is transmitting.
5. Touchpad is not learned into panel memory. Enter program mode and learn touchpad into
memory (see LEARN SENSORS).
6. Touchpad is learned into wrong partition. Delete touchpad and learn into correct partition or
change the partition in the EDIT SENSORS menu.
Wireless Touchpads (continued)
Touchpad reports trouble condition.
Check the touchpad battery(s) for low voltage. Replace battery(s), if necessary.
Phones
Loss of dial tone at on-site phones after wiring RJ-31X jack or connecting the DB-8 cord.
1. Wait 2 minutes and try again. The panel may be busy trying to report to the central station.
2. Disconnect the panel DB-8 cord from the RJ-31X jack. If the phone still doesn’t work, the sys-
tem is okay and the problem is in the wiring.
3. Check RJ-31X jack wiring and TELCO block wiring. Replace RJ-31X jack if necessary.
4. Check DB-8 cord connections at the panel and RJ-31X jack. Replace cord if necessary.
5. Perform a phone test after troubleshooting the phone line.
Constant dial tone, preventing dial-out on premises phones.
One or more polarity-sensitive phones exist on-site. Reverse the phone wires connected to the
brown and gray wire terminals on the RJ-31X jack.
Light Control
Light controlled by X10 Lamp Module is not working.
1. Check that the lamp has a working bulb and that the lamp switch is on.
2. Check to make sure X10 module is not plugged into an outlet controlled by a switch. Move to a
nonswitched outlet location and test.
3. Panel is not powered by a power line carrier transformer. Replace existing transformer with a
power line carrier transformer.
4. Power transformer and X10 modules are not plugged into outlets on the same electrical phase.
Relocate modules or transformer to different outlets to determine working locations.
5. Check that the HOUSE dial on the X10 module matches the partition house code programmed
into the panel.
6. X10 module is located in wrong partition. Move module to correct partition and retest.
7. Partition house codes are not programmed into panel. Enter program mode and set partition
house codes.
Energy Saver Module
Module does not respond to system commands or appear to control furnace.
