Trouble Shooting

Trouble Symptom Solution and Suggestion

Zone LED fault The system consists variety devices, any fault or incorrect
use on detector wiring , bell, and manual call point will
affect panel.
a. Use multi-meter measure AC power terminal, normally
you should get 220 V.
b. Check the voltage display whether the Normal LED is
ON.
c. Check fuse whether it is good.
d. Check external facility and wiring is meet requirement.
Fuse function Each fuse used in panel has individual protection function,
it must not be replaced with incorrect specification and
bad quality one. Burnt fuses are probably caused by wiring
error, short circuit or faulty external devices.
AC power fuse burnt Check the input power and fuse if they are comply to the
specification.
Standby power fuse burnt Check the wiring for polarity correctness.
Sounder fault Disconnect the sounder wire, then use multi-meter to
measure the sounder terminal and should read 24 VDC.
If not, please check the external wiring.
Zone fault Most zone fault caused by incorrect wiring.
Zone fault LED ON a. Check the panel if there is any non-connected zone and
EOL resistor.
b. Disconnect the wire of faulty zone and replaced with
10KΩ, the fault signal should disappear.
c. If above steps released fault means the panel is normal,
please check the external wiring before connect back
to panel.
d. Check wiring for open and short condition, detector
head and base is well connected, EOL resistor is well
connected.
e. Use multi-meter to measure the faulty zone
resistance, normally it should read 10KΩ.

Zone Fault LED ON a. Check any voltage existed between L and C after zone
wire is disconnected, normally it should be 0.
b. Check detector if it is normal.
Zone LED and Fire LED ON a. Disconnect the wire of faulty zone and measure the
faulty zone resistance, normally it should read 10KΩ.
b. Disconnect the faulty zone wire and then reset the
panel, replaced by 10KΩ and fix the trouble before
reconnect the wire.
