Fault Description Solution
MAINS FAIL xxx Mains supply failed System detects mains frequency out of
specification, as well as voltage.
The AC FAIL timer is operative.
FUSE x FAULT Fuse identified failed, OR Output protected by
fuse drawing excessive current
Fuse 1 = Bell
Fuse 2 = Aux
Fuse 3 = BUS
Fuse 4 = Battery
LOW VOLTS xxx Power supply volts low Ensure the voltage coming out of the control
panel PSU is ~12VDC.

Fault Description Solution
Engineer Access
Denied
Access to Engineer Menu NOT possible, as
system is not fully disarmed.
Ensure that ALL areas are disarmed, using a
suitable User Codes / tags at appropriate
keypads / readers.
Check Failed Input xxx Input in fault on attempting to exit Engineer
mode.
Applies to 24-hour tamper, or other Input types
that would generate an alarm condition if the
system were returned to disarmed mode. Also
applies to tamper fault on other Input types.
Check for fault on Input, or omit in programming.
Error Area not
accessible
A Input has been programmed to an area for
which no arming point is valid to disarm.
It would therefore be impossible to fully disarm
the system after a tamper alarm on that Input.
Programming must be adjusted before exiting
Engineer mode.
Error some Areas
cannot be disarmed
Arming points have been programmed so it’s
possible to arm an area, but not disarm it.
Programming must be adjusted before exiting
Engineer mode.
