If your ADT security system is showing ‘FC' then it is not communicating as it should. ‘FC' stands for ‘Failed Communication,' and is a common issue with ADT security systems. Luckily, minor issues like this do not require that you contact ADT to resolve. With a few basic steps (outlined below), it is something you can troubleshoot and resolve all by yourself.
In this particular case, it is necessary that you reset the FC code. This can typically be done by punching in your code, followed by ‘5.'
