If an Alarm Sounds

Fire Alarm

If your system has been installed with fire detectors and the alarm sounds in a

pulsing mode, follow your emergency evacuation plan immediately. See guidelines

for Family Escape Planning elsewhere in this manual.

Intrusion Alarm

If an intrusion alarm sounds (continuous bell/siren), the alarm may be silenced by

entering your security code. Transmission to the monitoring station will NOT be

interrupted by silencing the alarm unless a transmission delay is put in by your

installer. If the alarm was unintentional, notify the monitoring service or local

authorities immediately.

You may determine the source of the alarm by going to the Alarm Viewing section.

Once the source of the alarm has been corrected, the panel can be restored to its

original armed state.

temporarily out of service due to damaged wiring or contacts may be bypassed to

allow system arming (partial protection) until repairs can be made.

Keypad Zones

There are three keys on the keypad labelled [F] Fire, [A] Auxiliary and [P] Panic.

These keys are only functional if they have been programmed by the installer. The

installer should indicate which of these keys are active by placing a colored label

next to the key.

[F] Fire

Holding this key down for two seconds will sound a fire Alarm. The alarm will sound

pulsing and a transmission will be sent to the monitoring station. The keypad

sounder will sound three beeps once the panel has accepted the alarm.

[A] Auxiliary

Holding this key down for two seconds will send a transmission to the monitoring

station. The keypad sounder will sound a continuous series of short beeps once

the panel has accepted the alarm and begun the transmission. The keypad

sounder stops beeping once the key is released. A short series of beeps on the

keypad will indicate that the transmission was successful.

[P] Panic

Holding this key down for two seconds will send a transmission to the monitoring

station. The keypad sounder will repeatedly sound three short beeps once the

panel has accepted the alarm and begun the transmission, if the installer chooses

to make acknowledgements audible. The keypad sounder stops beeping once the

key is released. The installer can program this key to sound the alarm or to transmit

the alarm silently.

Quick Arm Feature

When the Quick Arm feature is enabled, the system may be armed by simply

pressing [✱] [0] instead of entering the four digit security code. The [✱] [0]

command will NOT disarm the panel.
