Why does my security console beep five times?

The five beeps you hear from your PS561 security console are a low battery indication.

If a zone light is flashing, change the batteries in that sensor.

If no zone lights flash, replace the battery in the console.

If you have replaced the batteries and the beeping continues, try resetting the console.
