10.2.1 Event History
The event history can be useful for tracking or recalling a trouble condition.
The panel indicates a ground fault trouble
condition (trouble message "GROUND
FAULT" displays).
An earth ground fault occurs when the panel senses an unexpected flow of
current from one or more of its terminals to the earth connection (Terminal 2).
Isolate the wiring that is causing the fault by removing wiring connections
one at a time until the earth fault is no longer present. Pause at least five
seconds after removing a wire before removing the next one.
The panel will also go into ground fault if a computer is connected to the
panel via a serial cable attached to the panel’s 9-pin connector. This is a
correct method for on-site communication between a panel and a computer.
Ignore the ground fault message in this case. The trouble will clear
automatically when you disconnect the computer from the cable
5496 module that has been physically
connected to the panel but is not being
recognized.
Check the status of the 5496 green LED. If it flashes in the pattern .5 sec. on /
.5 sec. off, it is likely that the 5496 has not been added to the system through
programming. JumpStart will add any 5496s connected to the panel. If you
have already run JumpStart, 5496s can be added manually (see Section 4.9).
Check that the correct ID for the 5496 module has been set through the
dipswitches. Assign ID#1 to the first 5496 and ID#2 to the second 5496. See
Section 4.9.1 for complete details.
If the wiring between the 5496 and the panel is correct, measure the voltage
from 5496 Terminal (+) to Terminal (-). Voltage should be in the range 27.2-
27.4V when AC power is present.
If the green LED is not flashing, the likely cause is incorrect wiring from
between the 5496 and the panel. See Section 4.4 for wiring details.
