Table 2.1 Point (Device) Troubles
System Troubles
A message from the “Trouble Type” column in Table 2.2 will appear in the second line on the left
of the panel display when a device trouble occurs. Use this table to help determine the cause of the
trouble.
DUAL ADDRESS There is more than one device of a single type
(detector or module) with the same SLC
address. A detector and a module can share
the same address on an SLC, but two
detectors, or two modules, can not. Note that
some addressable devices (e.g. certain power
supplies, XPIQs and RFXs) may not appear to
be detectors or modules, but are addressed on
the SLC as such.
Readdress the incorrect device.
GENERAL TROUBLE The power supply is not working properly. Check the battery for problems. Replace battery if
necessary.
GROUND FAULT There is a ground fault on the main or auxiliary
power supply.
Correct the fault.
INVALID RESPONSE The device has returned a response to the
panel that the panel did not expect.
Check the device for functionality, addressing and
wiring.
LOW TEMPERATURE The temperature read by a Heat+ or
Acclimate™+ detector is too low.
Raise the heat in the area of the detector.
LOW THRESHOLD The detector chamber reading is too low; the
detector is not operating properly.
The detector must be removed and replaced by an
authorized service representative.
MAINTENANCE REQ The detector is dirty and needs cleaning Clean the detector.
MAINT URGENT The detector requires cleaning immediately. It
is a false alarm risk.
Clean the detector immediately.
MISMAT HDWE TYPE The programming information in the panel’s
database for this device does not match the
type of device at the address specified.
Correct programming.
MOD EXT PWER LOSS The control module point has lost external
power.
Determine whether there is an AC power loss or
whether the power supply wiring is incorrect.
NO ANSWER The device (module or detector) is not
responding to the poll. Either the device is not
working or it is not connected properly.
Determine whether the device is functional, and
connected and addressed properly on the SLC.
NORMAL Indicates activated monitor module set to
monitor trouble condition.
Correct trouble condition.
OPEN CIRCUIT The module device has an open circuit on its
supervised wiring.
Check the connections from the module to the input
or output device to which it is wired.
RFX COMM LOSS Communication has been lost with an RFX
device
Check the RFX to determine the problem.
SECURITY TAMPER An RFX device has been removed from its
base.
Check the RFX device for tampering.
SHORT CIRCUIT The module device has a short circuit on its
supervised wiring.
Check the connections from the module to the input
or output device to which it is wired.
VERIFY OVER MAX This detector, or FZM-1 or panel circuit monitor
module, which has been programmed to
participate in alarm verification, has gone into
and come out of verification its programmed
limit without going into alarm. Either something
is wrong with the detector or there is a
condition nearby (such as someone smoking)
that causes it to go into verification frequently.
Check the detector and the conditions nearby to
determine the problem.

TROUBLE The annunciator at address x is in trouble.
AUXILIARY TROUBLE Auxiliary device connected to the NFS-3030 CPU at J5 is in trouble or cable is missing.
BASIC WALK TEST A Basic Walk Test is in progress.
CORRUPT LOGIC EQUAT The database that houses the panel’s logic equations is corrupt. It must be re-downloaded, or all programming
must be cleared and re-entered.
