I don't think this info has ever been posted.

When looking at GE type wireless device status in Dealer PC Access there are codes displayed. They are not the same as displayed on the two digit display on the 42A00 receiver.
The codes are:

0 - Normal
1 - Tripped
2 - Low Battery
4 - Supervision Failure
8 - Cover

These codes are additive. So if a wireless zone is tripped and has a low battery you will see a status of 3. Unfortunately, there is no way to use these codes in programming to take action based on a specific code. This is a shame since implementing cover awareness would prevent false fire alarms when taking smoke detectors
down to change batteries.
 
Great info! Looks like they are binary codes.

0000 = 0 = Normal
0001 = 1 = Tripped
0010 = 2 =Low Battery
0100 = 4 = Supervision Failure
1000 = 8 = Cover
