SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Congratulations on your ownership of an Ademco Alarm System. You've made a
wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in alarm protection
technology today, including microcomputer technology to monitor all system status.
Ademco is the world's largest manufacturer of alarm systems and millions of
premises are protected by Ademco systems.
Your system is a UL Listed commercial fire alarm control/communicator. It monitors,
on an around-the clock basis, the various fire alarm warning, emergency alarm
warning and fire sprinkler system supervisory sensors that have been installed in
your system. When the control detects an alarm, supervisory, or trouble condition,
it automatically triggers an on-premises warning indication and transmits a message
to a central station over the telephone line so that appropriate action can be taken.
The control features a built-in warning buzzer and LED indicators which provide
the on-premises warning indication. In addition, your system may include an
optional remote keypad and/or optional external alarm warning sounders which will
provide additional on-premises warning indications. Please disregard references to
these devices in the text that follows, if they were not installed in your system.
Zones
Your system has five protection zones. Your installer has assigned each of your
system's sensing devices to one of these zones. For example, warehouse smoke
detectors may have been assigned to zone 01, a fire sprinkler water valve
supervisory switch may have been assigned to zone 02, etc.. If a remote keypad
was installed in your system, it will display these zone numbers when an alarm,
supervisory or trouble condition is detected, so that the nature and location of the
fault can be pinpointed..

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Fire & Emergency
Protection
Alarms
Memory Of Alarm
The fire and emergency protection portions of your system are always on and will
sound an alarm if an alarm condition is detected.
When an alarm occurs, the control's buzzer, the keypad and external sounders will
sound, and a message at the keypad will identify the zone(s) causing the alarm. In
addition, an alarm message will be sent to the connected central monitoring station.
You may stop the sound by pressing the SILENCE/RESET button at the control,
or by entering the OFF sequence (user code + OFF key) at your keypad .
When an alarm, supervisory or trouble condition occurs, the keypad displays the
number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of
condition present (ex. Fire, Alarm, Supv., Check). The display remains until it is
cleared by entering the OFF sequence (user code + OFF key) a second time or
by pressing the SILENCE/RESET button a second time if no keypad is present.

Keypad Displays
The keypads feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of all occurrences.
The keypads feature a built-in sounder which emits the same alarm sounds as the
control's built-in warning buzzer during alarm conditions.
The keypad's display screen displays the same indications as the control's built-in
LED indicators, and in addition, displays the zone number of faulted zones as well
as the type of fault (i.e. alarm, supervisory or trouble) present. The telephone
style keypad keys allow entry of commands for silencing the warning sounds,
resetting faulted smoke detectors, activating various system tests, etc.
There are two basic types of keypad displays, Alpha and Fixed-Word, either of
which may have been used in your system.
• Alpha Keypad Displays feature a 2-line, 32 character alphanumeric Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD) which can display the nature and location of all
occurrences in friendly English.
• Fixed-Word Keypad Displays are functionally similar to the Alpha Keypads,
except that their LCD display uses pre-designated (fixed) words to identify the
nature and location of occurrences.
Unless stated otherwise, all commands and procedures described herein apply
equally to all keypads.
