System Schematic For Alarm Module (ALM)All the fault indicators of the remote annunciator flash and/or all the fault indicators of the control panel alarm module flash. The indicators flash once per two seconds (0.5 Hz).Note: The maximum number of modules (Alarm, Remote Annunciator, or Customer Interface Module), that can be connected to the GSC is three. (There is no limit on the number of Custom Alarm Modules that can be used in an application.) The maximum distance between a module and the GSC is 305 m (1000 ft). If these specifications are not met, the information on the data link can be erratic. Also, the indicators on the alarm module could flash. If the conditions are not in compliance with the specifications, reduce the number of modules and/or shorten the distance to the GSC.The data link will malfunction under the following conditions with multiple modules:
One of the modules is powered down. ("B+" or "B-" is disconnected.)
The module that is powered down remains connected to the data link.Under these conditions, the indicators that are controlled by the data link of the other modules that are powered up will flash at .5 Hz.
Check the data wire.
Turn the ECS to OFF/RESET.
Disconnect the harness connector from the GSC.
Check for an open. Measure the resistance from terminal 2 of the alarm module to contact 35 of the GSC harness connector. The resistance should be 5 ohms or less.
Check for a short. Measure the resistance from contact 35 of the GSC harness connector to the battery (B+) and ground (B-) at the relay module. The resistance should be greater than 5000 ohms.Expected Result: For 1.c, the resistance should be 5 ohms or less. For 1.d, the resistance should be greater than 5000 ohms.Results:
OK - All resistance measurements are correct. Proceed to next step.
Not OK - One or more of the resistance measurements are NOT correct. Therefore, the harness wiring with the incorrect resistance is faulty. Troubleshoot the faulty wiring and repair the faulty harness wiring. STOP.
Measure the voltage at the alarm module.The ECS remains in the OFF/RESET position.
Reconnect the harness connector to the GSC.
At the alarm module, measure the DC voltage from terminal 2 to terminal 7. The voltage will be changing. The voltage should be between 1
