To reposition a sensor:
1. Rotate the sensor and test for improved sensor communications at 90 and 180
degrees from original position.
2. If poor communication persists, relocate the sensor.
To relocate a sensor:
1. Test the sensor a few inches from the original position.
2. Increase the distance from the original position and retest until an acceptable
location is found.
3. Mount the sensor in the new location.
4. If no location is acceptable, replace the sensor.
To replace a sensor:
1. Test a known good sensor at the same location.
2. If the transmission beeps remain below the minimum level, avoid mounting a
sensor at that location.
3. If the known-good sensor functions, contact UTC Fire & Security for repair or
replacement of the problem sensor.
Phone communication
Perform a communication test to check the phone communication between the
panel and the central station.
To perform a phone communication test:
1. Scroll to the Comm Test option under the System Test menu.
2. Press OK.
The panel confirms that a communication test has begun. When the
communication test is complete, the panel displays Comm Test is OK within 3
minutes.
If the test is unsuccessful, the Status button lights and the display shows Comm
Failure within 10 minutes.
If the test is unsuccessful:
1. Check that the panel is connected to the phone jack.
2. Check the phone number programmed into the panel.
3. Perform the communication test again.
4. If the communication test fails again, check the phone connection wiring.
