Example trouble condition explanations and help text
Front Door Sensor Bypassed: Indicates that your system is not actively monitoring this sensor, which is being ignored and will not trigger an alarm if it's activated. This can happen when a contact sensor is open when your security system is armed. Resolve this issue by disarming your system, closing the contact sensor, then rearming your system. If you need additional support, contact us.
Image Sensor Tamper: Indicates that this image sensor was moved, opened, or shaken. Image sensors have an accelerometer that senses when it is in motion or tilted. Any time your image sensor is moved or something causes it to vibrate (like a door closing hard), you will see this issue. Make sure your image sensor is upright and leave it motionless for at least 5 minutes. If this does not resolve the issue, contact us for support.
Panel Low Battery: Indicates that the backup battery in your security panel is drained, which typically happens after an AC power failure. To resolve the issue, let the battery recharge. If the battery cannot recharge, it may need to be replaced by support.
Thermostat Too Warm: Indicates that the temperature reported by your thermostat is higher than the threshold that you have specified in the Temperature Notification rule. Check your thermostat and rule settings. If you need additional support, contact us.
