Testing Sensors/Zones We recommend that you test sensors/zones after all pro-

gramming is completed and whenever a sensor/zone-related problem occurs. If the system does not respond as described in Sensor Test

(on page 18), see Appendix A: Troubleshooting on page 19. Note While the sensor test is a valuable installation and service tool, it only tests sensor operation for the current condi-

tions. You should perform a sensor test after any change in environment, equipment, or programming. To test sensors:

1. Go into sensor test; trip sensor. 2. Count the number of beeps that the panel emits. Refer to Table 7 for the preferred number of beeps required. Table 7: Minimum Beeps Type of Sensor Wireless Intrusion Sensors Wireless Smoke & Heat Sensors Number of Beeps 78 beeps 78 beeps Type of Sensor Number of Beeps Wireless Environmental/Panic Buttons 78 beeps Hardwire Loops Emergency Buttons (Remote Handheld Touchpads only) Keychain Touchpad DTIMs 1 7-8 beeps 3 beeps 7-8 beeps If a Wireless Sensor Does Not Test When possible, locate wireless sensors within 100 feet of the panel. While a transmitter may have a range of 500 feet or more out in the open, the environment at the installation site can have a significant effect on transmitter range. Refer to Appendix A: Troubleshooting (on page 19) to resolve the problem. For wireless sensors that dont respond, use an ITI RF Sniffer (60-401) test tool to verify that the sensor is trans-

mitting. Constant beeps from the RF Sniffer indicate a run-

away (faulty) sensor. Remove the sensors battery and replace the sensor. Testing Phone Communication Perform a phone test to check the phone communication between the panel and the central monitoring station, see Phone Test (Reports) on page 14. Testing Central Station Communication After performing sensor and phone tests, check that the sys-

tem is reporting alarms successfully to the central station. To test communication with the central station:

1. To avoid the dispatch of emergency personnel, call the central station and tell the operator that you will be testing the system!

2. Arm the system. 18 Allegro

J Preliminary 2/5/02 Appendix A: Troubleshooting Feature Problem Panel Power Action/Solution Panel does not power up and does not display or respond. 1. Check that panel transformer is plugged into an unswitched outlet. 2. Check the AC circuit breaker to be sure the circuit is live. 3. Check that the backup battery is installed correctly and the AC power transformer is plugged in. 4. Check for proper panel and transformer wiring. 5. Measure the incoming AC voltage at panel terminals 1 and 2. It should read about 8 VAC. No incoming AC voltage at panel terminals 1 and 2. 1. Unplug the AC power transformer and disconnect the wires from the transformer and the panel. 2. Check transformer to panel wire for short or open circuits. 3. Plug in the transformer and check for 8.0 VAC at the transformer unconnected terminals. If zero (0) volts, replace the transformer. If transformer is good, call Tech Support. Panel display indicates Low CPU Battery. Note If the AC power was out for an extended period of time, the battery may not be fully charged yet. 1. Perform a battery test by entering and exiting sensor test. 2. Check that the backup battery is installed correctly and the AC power transformer is plugged in. 3. Measure the incoming AC voltage at the panel terminals 1 and 2. It should read about 8 VAC. 4. Remove the backup battery power by disconnecting the battery and replace the battery. Note If AC power is present, the battery voltage is only monitored during a backup battery test. The panel automatically runs a backup battery test under the following conditions: (1) during user sensor test,

(2) once every 4 hours, (3) when the back cover is closed. In order for the panel to update the battery status, a backup battery test must be run. Note With the AC power transformer plugged in, the panel automatically charges the battery. While the battery is charging for the first time it is normal for the system to indicate Low CPU Battery. Charging the battery can take a number of hours depending on the batterys initial charge. Once the battery reaches 4.8 VDC (full charge as measured while in battery test), the condition clears. If the trouble condition persists after 24 hours, replace the backup battery. A Low Battery report to the central sta-

tion will not be made for the first 24 hours after power up. After pressing STATUS the panel flashes AC Fail, (panel continues to operate from backup battery). 1. Check the AC circuit breaker to be sure the circuit is live. 2. Check for proper panel and transformer wiring. 3. Check that the transformer is supplying AC to the panel. 4. Check that the transformer is plugged into a nonswitched outlet and secured with the provided screw.

WARNING Be careful when securing the transformer to an outlet with a metal cover. Hold the cover tightly in place. You could receive a serious shock if the metal outlet cover drops down onto the prongs of the plug while you are securing the transformer and cover to the outlet box. Access Code Customer cannot remember access code(s). 1. Check your records to see if you have the customers access code(s) on file. 2. Verify the access code(s) using the Downloader. 3. Clear memory and reprogram the panel locally. 4. Use Apartment Manager code to enter program mode and view the primary and user codes. Installer cannot remember install code. 1. Check your records to see if you have the install code on file. 2. Verify the install code using the Downloader. 3. Use the Dealer Code to enter program mode and view the installer code. 4. Call Technical Support for assistance. Arming/Disarming Allegro 19 Preliminary 2/5/02 Feature Problem System protests and will not arm immediately. Action/Solution 1. Press STATUS for an indication of the problem. 2. Make sure all monitored perimeter doors and windows are closed. 3. Make sure all perimeter and interior sensors are closed.

Action/Solution 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 or there is too much inter-

ference. 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 minute. Sensor batteries are getting low. Replace batteries. Note System Sensor smoke sensors do not transmit a low battery signal to the panel/receiver until battery voltage drops to within a range of 7.0 to 7.8 VDC. The sensor sounds beeps to notify occupants that the sensors batteries need replacing, but the sensor does not transmit a low battery signal to the panel until the next supervisory signal (69 minutes later). Wireless Touchpad System doesnt respond to commands entered from wireless touchpad. Check for dead batteries. Perform a sensor test. Touchpad reports trouble condition. Check the touchpad battery for low voltage. Replace battery, if necessary. DTIM Phone Panel displays phone module memory failure, or Service required. 1. Perform a sensor test. 2. Call technical support for assistance. Panel displays Phone Module Low Battery. 1. Replace the battery and perform a sensor test. 2. Call technical support. Constant dial tone, preventing dial-out on premises phones. One or more polarity-sensitive phones exist on-site. Panel displays phone 1 fail, phone 2 fail, or phone failure. 1. Perform a phone test. 2. Check to make sure manual phone test option is on. 3. Verify that high and/or low level reporting option is on. 4. Perform a sensor test to verify communication between the DTIM and panel. See Phone Test

(Reports) on page 14 5. Check DTIM wiring (see DTIM installation instructions). Phone Test Panel does not display option to perform a phone test. The central station phone number is not programmed in. DTIM has not been enrolled. Downloader Download/upload session fails on a pre-programmed panel. 1.
