How to determine trouble condition on a DSC 1555 panel

On Some DSC LCD Fixed keypads, a trouble is indicated by this symbol: which can be confused for the Medical Panic button. Here's how to determine what the trouble condition is:

1. Press *2 on the keypad.

1. Any of the numbers 1 – 8 may show up, indicating one or more of 8 possible trouble types
   1. 1 = Service Required (See Below)
   2. 2 = AC Fail
   3. 3 = Telco Trouble
   4. 4 = Comm Failure
   5. 5 = Zone Fault (press 5 for a list of zone numbers)
   6. 6 = Zone Tamper (press 6 for a list of zone numbers)
   7. 7 = Low Battery (non-system) (See Below)
   8. 8 = Lost Clock Setting

1. When a 1 is indicated, pressing 1 again will show a number or numbers indicating the type of service required:
   1. 1 = Low System Battery
   2. 2 = Bell Circuit Trouble
   3. 3 = General Trouble
   4. 4 = General Tamper (such as keypad tamper)
   5. 5 = System Supervisory (such as for an expansion module)
   6. 6 = RF Jam
   7. 7 = PC5204 (Power Supply) Trouble Low Battery
   8. 8 = PC5204 (Power Supply) Trouble AC Loss

1. When a 7 is displayed, this indicates an RF Zone has a Low Battery. By pressing 7 again:
   1. 1 keypad beep plus Zone Number or Numbers indicate which zones are experiencing Low Battery
   2. Press 7 again, 2 beeps plus zone numbers 1 – 4 lit indicate a handheld RF Keypad with a low battery
   3. Press 7 again, 3 beeps plus zone numbers 1 – 8 or 1 – 16 indicate wireless keys with low battery.

1. To Exit this mode when finished, press # until the display returns to normal. This will back you out one screen at a time.
