Diagnostics
The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is constant-
ly mon i tor ing all of the switches and sensors that are connected
to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them
from disabling the entire system. The mi cro pro ces sor will also re-
cord and report any triggers that occurred during your absence.
Refer to the System Status Chirps and Table of Zones charts for
diagnostic information.
Arming diagnostics
If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor
triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then
one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass Notifica-
tion.
Note: Bypass Notification will not occur when using Silent
Mode™ or if chirps have been programmed OFF.
The security system will ignore the input that was active when the
system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds later
the system will monitor that input normally. For example, if your
vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system be-
fore the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass Notification
chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors are mon i tored
normally.
