Remember! The memory indication and content are

cleared upon the next arming of the system.

5.2 Reviewing Trouble Information

A. Trouble Indications

If TRBL flashes in the display, the TROUBLE indicator

illuminates, and 3 beeps are sounded once per minute,

you will have to investigate the system in order to find out

the origin and type of trouble at hand. Trouble types are:
SENSOR

KEYFOB

WIRELESS

COMMANDER TROUBLES

• Inactivity - No radio signals have been received from a

particular sensor / wireless commander (if its supervision

feature has been enabled) during a pre-defined period.

• Low battery - The battery in a sensor, keyfob or

wireless commander is near the end of its useful life.

• "Clean me" - The fire detector must be cleaned.

• Gas trouble - Gas detector failure.

• Siren AC failure - There is no power to the siren.

• X-10 trouble - An activation command was sent to a

two-way X-10 unit but the command implementation

confirmation (acknowledgement) was not received.

GSM TROUBLES (if used)

• GSM AC failure - No power to GSM unit.

• GSM low battery - GSM battery voltage is low.

• GSM tamper- Someone tampered with the GSM unit.

• GSM line fail - GSM telephone line failure.

• GSM net fail - GSM network failure.

• RSSI low - The GSM received signal strength is low.

• GSM modem off - The GSM unit does not operate.

• GSM communication fail - There is no communication

(RS-232 format) between PowerMax+ and GSM unit.

SYSTEM TROUBLES

• AC Supply Failure - There is no power and the system

is working on backup battery power (this trouble is

reported 5 minutes after its occurrence).

• System Jammed - A radio-frequency signal is blocking

communication channel of sensors and control panel.

• Communication failure - A message could not be sent

to the central monitoring station or to a private telephone

(or a message was sent but was not acknowledged).

• CPU low battery - The backup battery within the control

panel is weak and must be replaced (see Para. 9.1).

• CPU tamper - The control panel is being tampered with.

• Fuse Trouble - The siren fuse is burnt out.

IMPORTANT! If the trouble beeps bother you, disarm the

system again (even though it is already disarmed). This

will cancel the trouble beeps for 4 hours.

B. Investigating Trouble Sources

In a state of trouble, a flashing TRBL message is

displayed as shown in the following examples:

R E A D Y H H : M M

(alternating)

R E A D Y T R B L

or, if the system is not ready for arming -

N O T R E A D Y H H : M M

(alternating)

N O T R E A D Y T R B L

You can review the current troubles one by one, by clicking

the SHOW/OK button.
EXAMPLE: The kitchen sensor - zone No. 9 - has been

inactive and the living room sensor - zone No. 15 - has

reported a low battery. However, these troubles do not

prevent the system from being “ready to arm”.

To investigate the source of trouble, proceed as follows:

Action Resultant

Display

Sound

R E A D Y H H : M M

Z 0 9 I N A C T I V E

(alternating)

K I T C H E N

Z 1 5 L O W B A T T E R Y

(alternating)

L I V I N G R O O M

In response to further clicking of <SHOW/OK>, the display

will show details of other troubles (if any), or will revert to

the initial alternating displays (see example above).

5.3 Reviewing Memory and Troubles
at the Same Time

If alarms / tamper events are retained in the alarm

memory and at the same time a state of trouble exists, the

display will behave as shown below:

R E A D Y H H : M M

(alternating)

R E A D Y M E M O R Y

(alternating)

R E A D Y T R B L

or, if the system is not ready to arm -

N O T R E A D Y H H : M M

(alternating)

N O T R E A D Y M E M O R Y

(alternating)

N O T R E A D Y T R B L

Note: When a
voice message
is in memory, the
MSG display will
also appear (as
shown in Para.
3.4).

To read status information - memory data, open zones and
trouble sources (in this order) - click the <SHOW / OK>
button repeatedly. The memory content will be displayed
first, in the same manner shown in Para. 5.1. If the system
is not ready, open zone information will follow in the same
manner as shown in Para 2.2. Trouble sources will be
displayed last, in the same manner shown in Para. 5.2.

5.4 Correcting Trouble Situations

The trouble indications (illuminated TROUBLE indicator

and flashing TRBL message) are cleared once you

eliminate the cause for trouble. If you do not know how

to cope with a trouble situation, report it to your

installer and seek his advice.
INACTIVITY:

Once an inactive sensor or wireless

commander renews its periodical transmissions, the

inactivity trouble no longer exists and will no longer be

indicated by the control panel.
LOW BATTERY: Upon replacing the battery in a wireless

device in a keyfob or in a wireless commander that reported

a low battery, the next transmission made by the relevant

sensor will include a “battery restored” message, and “low

battery” will no longer be indicated by the control panel.
SYSTEM TROUBLE: Correction of any one of the system

troubles is automatically sensed by the control panel, and

the trouble indication is cleared accordingly.
