Why is my power light flashing on my Hills alarm system keypad? 

The power light (red LED) on your Hills keypad will start flashing because this indicates that your back-up-battery to the main unit is very low and now needs to be replaced. When the alarm battery has been replaced and reset properly, the power light will stop flashing showing that the battery is now in good condition as it should be.

Why is my service light lit "ON" to my Hills alarm keypad? 

The service light (yellow LED) on your Hills keypad lights up because it wants to let you know that your alarm system now needs servicing.

If the service light is "ON" pressing the [*] star key followed by the [2] number two key to indicate the service condition. The LED or LED`S will illuminate indicating what service need attending to. Please refer to your alarm manual to locate the fault conditions that is causing this to occur.

Common faults to a Hills service light "ON" are a low main battery, wireless zone low battery, loss of zone supervision, telephone line fail, failure to communicate, fuse fault, loss of system time, expander trouble, zone trouble, box tamper trouble and siren trouble fault.

What does a failure to communicate error code mean?

A communication failure fault is a common trouble condition message displayed on the code pad and in most cases can easily be restored

This message indicates that your communication from your alarm system to your mobile phone is not working properly and has stopped receiving notifications. The most common cause related to this issue has been the NBN not being fully compatible for communicating to the onboard control panel phone dialler. Users may visually see a "COM FAIL" message displayed on the keypad

Warning sounds like a beeping alarm keypad will alert users indicating a problem and this should now be fixed straight away. Ignoring this issue or waiting until later should be avoided and the best solution is to book a service technician call-out to rectify this case immediately. In many cases, this situation can be repaired easily as you may now only require installing a new version software update
