SYSTEM OVERVIEW

General

A Partitioned

System

Congratulations on your ownership of an Ademco Partitioned Security System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today. Ademco is the world's largest manufacturer of security systems and millions of premises are protected by Ademco systems.

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. To realize the system's full potential, it is important that you feel comfortable in operating it. Your system consists of at least one Keypad which provides full control of system operation, various sensors which provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus a selected number of strategically placed smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide early warning in case of fire.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status and provides appropriate information for display on the Keypad(s) used with the system, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.

Simply stated, a partitioned system shares one physical alarm system among different users, each with their own requirements. For the most part, you as a user need not know about other users and their structure in the system, but from time to time, you may see display messages which indicate the system is in use by another user. Do not be concerned, this is normal. Refer to the ACCESSING OTHER PARTITIONS section for additional information.

Zones

Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the sensing device on your Entry/Exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These numbers will appear on the display, along with an alpha descriptor for that zone (if programmed), when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.

Ð 3 Ð

SYSTEM OVERVIEW (cont'd)

Fire Protection

Burglary

Protection

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from your house.

The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned on or "armed" before it will sense burglary alarm conditions. Your system provides four modes of burglary protection: STAY, AWAY, INSTANT and MAXIMUM, and even allows you to BYPASS selected zones of protection while leaving the rest of the system armed. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening and closing of doors and windows while the system is disarmed. Refer to the other sections of this manual for procedures for using these features.

The following table lists the four different arming modes and the results of each.

Arming Features For Each Arming Mode

Alarms

Memory of Alarm

When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound, and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will also be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.

When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm (ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains displayed until it is cleared by disarming the system (see DISARMING THE SYSTEM section).

(GOTO Command)

The system can store a string of up to 16 keystrokes, which can be activated anytime by simply pressing the "D" key. This feature can be used to make it easy to perform a complicated procedure (such as going to another partition to bypass a zone), or it can be used to simplify an everyday, repeated procedure. Refer to the SPEED KEY section for procedures for using this feature.

automatically arming, disarming and activating various devices and/or performing other system functions at predetermined times. Users can modify some of these schedules by manually delaying a closing time, using temporary schedules, or by programming special user schedules. Refer to the USING SCHEDULES section at the end of this manual for scheduling related procedures.

control various devices, such as lights or appliances. These timers are similar in concept to the individual appliance timers that might be purchased at a department store. The devices that can be controlled are programmed into the system by the installer. Up to 16 of these devices can be programmed. Refer to the PROGRAMMING DEVICE TIMERS section for procedures.

Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in another partition by using the GOTO command. Note that only those partitions authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this manner.

To GOTO another partition, enter your security code, then press

✱

followed by the desired partition number (1-8).

The keypad will remain in the new partition until directed to go to another partition, or until 120 seconds has elapsed with no keypad activity. Entering partition number 0 will return the keypad to its original partition.

Abbreviated user's instructions are built into the system that can be easily viewed on the alpha keypad's message display screen. This feature will prove particularly useful if this manual is not conveniently accessible when you need to perform a system procedure with which you are not familiar.

To view the abbreviated instructions:

Simply press and hold down the function key of interest until the description starts to appear (about 5 seconds) and then release it.

Refer to the FUNCTIONS OF THE KEYPAD section for descriptions of each key function.

Your system may include a 4285 VIP module that will permit you to access the system via a Touch-tone phone, either onpremises or by call-in when away. The phone access feature will enable you to do the following:

¥ Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone

regarding the status of the security system.

¥ Arm and disarm the system and perform most function

commands via the telephone, with voice confirmation provided after each command entry.

¥ Control 4204 relays through the #70 Manual Relay Activation

The Keypad This system uses alpha keypads, which feature a 2-line, 32

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of all occurrences. Keypad display back lighting is programmable to always stay on or to light only when a key is pressed, then turn off a few minutes later.

The keypads also feature a built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and troubles. It will also "beep" during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay times, during CHIME mode, and when depressing keys to arm and disarm the system (to acknowledge the key press). These sounds can be optionally suppressed in some of your keypads (so as not to disturb other users of the system). Ask your installer if this has been done.

ENTRY/EXIT DELAYS

General

Information

Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any arming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period.

Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter through the designated entrance door. But the system must be disarmed before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad will beep during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the premises or while away for extended periods of time. See your installer for your delay times.

Ð 10 Ð

SECURITY CODES

& AUTHORITY LEVELS

General

Information

Duress Code This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or

At the time of installation, you were assigned an authority level and a personal four-digit security code, known only to you and yours. The security code must be entered when arming and disarming the system. The authority level defines the system functions that you can perform.

As an additional safety feature, other users that do not have a need to know your code can be assigned different security codes, and each user can be given a different authority level. Users are identified by "user numbers", which are assigned when assigning a user's security code.

All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions within the limits of each code's authority level (a system armed with one user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the Operator Level C code. See AUTHORITY LEVELS section on the following page for detailed information regarding user authority levels.

arm the system under threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the central station of your situation, if that service has been provided. The duress code is pre-assigned by the installer during installation (auth. level 6).

Important: This code is useful only when the system is connected to a central station.

Quick Arming Note that if "Quick Arming" was programmed by the installer, the

# key can be pressed in place of the security code when arming

the system. The security code must always be used to disarm the system, however.

General Rules on

Authority Levels

and Changes

To Exit User Edit

Mode

¥ A user may not delete or change the user code of the SAME or

HIGHER authority than which he is assigned. ¥ A user may only ADD users to a LOWER authority level. ¥ A user may assign access codes only to those partitions to

which the user adding the code has access. (ex. a user with

access to only partition 1 cannot assign codes in partition 2.) ¥ The only way to assign a user's authority level is by using the

"Add A User" procedure. To change a user's authority level,

that user must first be deleted, then added again. ¥ A user can only be DELETED or CHANGED from within the

partition he is assigned. ¥ User numbers must be entered as 3-digit entries. One- or two-

digit user numbers must be preceded by a "0" (example, 003,

004, etc.). Security codes are entered as 4-digit numbers. ¥ Before assigning a security code, be sure it does not conflict

with any DURESS code.

Note: When adding, changing or deleting users, all other alpha keypads in that partition will display "User Edit Mode Ð Please Stand By", and key depressions (except Panic) at those keypads will be ignored. Panic key depressions will cause an alarm and terminate user entry.

You can exit any of the user edit modes described on the following pages at any time by doing the following:

To Access

Another Partition

Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in other partitions by using the GOTO command. Note that only those partitions authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this manner.

To GOTO another partition:

READY

1. Enter your security code, then press Ê✱Ê + partition

number (0-9). Entering partition number 0 will return the keypad to its original partition.

LOG-ON TO

AAAA PART. X COMPLETE

The keypad will remain in the new partition until directed to go to another partition, or until 2 minutes has elapsed with no keypad activity.

AAAA = alpha descriptor programmed by the installer

X = partition number

Global Arming The Global Arming option may have been programmed for use

by some users. If Global Arming was enabled for use with your security code, a keypad prompt (message) will appear after pressing one of the arming function keys (STAY, INSTANT, AWAY, MAXIMUM, OFF). Follow the keypad prompts to continue arming the system. See your installer for detailed instructions on the use of this feature.

If global arming does not apply to your security code, use the procedures described in the following pages.

Master Keypad

Operation

A "Master" keypad is one that reflects the status of the entire system (Partitions 1-8) on its display. This is useful because it eliminates the need for a security officer in a building to have to "log-on" to various partitions from one partition's keypad to find out where an alarm has occurred.

A description of a typical display follows:

To obtain more information regarding a particular partition, enter ✴ + [Partition No.] (i.e., ✴4). This will allow viewing

partition. In order to affect that partition, the user must log on with a code that has access to that partition. Also, in order for a user of any partition to log onto the "Master" partition (Partition 9) to view the status of partitions. Otherwise, access will be denied.

The following is an example of what would be displayed for a fault condition on Zone 2 (Loading Dock Window) on Partition 1 (Warehouse) when logging on from a keypad on Partition 9:

This is the normal display that appears at Partition 1's keypad(s).

How User Codes Affect the Common Lobby

Codes with "Global" Arming

If your code is given "global arming" when it is defined the keypad will ask "Arm all?" or "Disarm all?" whenever you try to arm or disarm the partitions you have access to from an alpha keypad. This allows you to pick and choose the partitions to be armed or disarmed, and so eliminates the "automatic" operation of the lobby. Keep in mind, however, that if attempting to arm all, and another "affecting" partition is disarmed, you will not be able to arm the lobby, and the message "UNABLE TO ARM LOBBY PARTITION" will be displayed.

Codes with "Non-Global" Arming

If arming with a non-global code, or if arming with a global code from a non-alpha keypad, the lobby partition operation will be automatic, as described in the previous table.

Other Methods of Arming/Disarming

When arming or disarming a partition that affects and/or arms the common lobby in one of the following manners, lobby logic remains active:

¥ Quick-Arm ¥ Keyswitch ¥ Wireless Button ¥ Wireless Keypad

Supervisory

Zones

NOTE: Ask your installer if your system was set up to allow system zones and system outputs to be bypassed.

Your system may allow you to bypass certain "system zones" which monitor various aspects of system status and certain system outputs which annunciate system status. These zones and outputs are listed below. This feature is used to disable the monitoring of one or more system zones or to disable the operation of one or more system outputs when, for example, the system is to be serviced or tested. If enabled, this feature can only be used by a master user.

¥ zone #970: monitors the supervision status of the bell 1

output (if enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zone disables the operation and supervision of the bell 1 output.

¥ zone #971: monitors the supervision status of the bell 2

output (if enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zone disables the operation and supervision of the bell 2 output.

¥ zone #972: monitors the panel's field wiring to determine if a

short to earth ground exists. Bypassing this zone disables earth ground fault monitoring.

¥ zone #973: monitors devices that your installer has connected

to input 1 on the main PCB J2 connector (such as a back-up ALARMNET radio transmitter). Bypassing this zone causes the system to ignore the status of devices connected to input

¥ zone #974: monitors the supervision status of the main dialer

output (if enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zone disables the operation and supervision of the main dialer output.

¥ zone #975: monitors the supervision status of the back-up

dialer output (if installed and enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zone disables the operation and supervision of the back-up dialer output.

¥ zone #976: this zone is assigned to the auxiliary relay output.

Actually, this zone does not monitor anything since the auxiliary relay output is not supervised. However, bypassing this zone allows the operation of the auxiliary relay output to be disabled.

¥ zone #977: this zone is assigned to the ALARMNET radio

trigger outputs. Actually, this zone does not monitor anything since the ALARMNET triggers are not supervised. However, bypassing this zone allows the operation of the triggers to be disabled.

Smoke Detectors for Minimum Protection Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection Heat-Activated Detectors

FOR PROPER PROTECTION

THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE LOCATION OF FIRE AND BURGLARY DETECTION DEVICES HELP PROVIDE PROPER COVERAGE FOR THE PROTECTED PREMISES.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SMOKE AND HEAT DETECTORS

With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.

Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each separate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements. The installation of detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally recommended.

For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install smoke detectors in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.

Ð 49 Ð

RECOMMENDATIONS

FOR PROPER PROTECTION (cont.)

In addition, we recommend the following:

¥ Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps. ¥ Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps

with the door partly or completely closed. Smoke could be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.

¥ Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances

(such as portable heaters, air conditioners or humidifiers) are used.

¥ Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is more

than 40 feet (12 meters) long.

¥ Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or

in any room where alarm control connections to an AC source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room could prevent the control from reporting a fire or an intrusion.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTION

For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or commercial premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building.

In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system so that alarm signals can still be sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

Ð 50 Ð

EMERGENCY EVACUATION

Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:

1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so that they can be heard by all occupants.

2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should lead to the door that permits normal exit from the building. The other may be a window, should your path be impassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows if there is a long drop to the ground.

3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs and rooftops that can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep these routes free from obstruction and post copies of the escape routes in every room.

4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This will prevent deadly smoke from entering while you escape.

5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route. If the door is cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door if smoke or heat rushes in.

6. Where smoke is present, crawl on the ground; do not walk upright. Smoke rises and may overcome you. Clearer air is near the floor.

7. Escape quickly; don't panic.

8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from your house, where everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the authorities and account for those missing. Choose someone to assure that nobody returns to the house Ñ many die going back.

The components of your security system are designed to be as free of maintenance as possible. However, there are some things you can do to make sure that your system is in reliable working condition.

1. Test your system weekly.

2. Test the system after any alarm occurs (see

SYSTEM

Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects a low battery in any wireless sensor, including smoke detectors, the optional personal emergency transmitter, and the optional portable wireless keypad. (A low battery in a portable wireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the keypad will display 00.)

Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and applications, provide 2Ð4 years of service. Actual battery life will depend on the environment in which the sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures or large swings in temperature, may all lead to the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.

If you have a low battery in a wireless sensor, a low battery message is displayed on the keypad.

TESTING THE

In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low battery also emits a single "chirp" sound once approximately every 2030 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke detector with the weak battery. If you do not replace a smoke detector's low battery, the smoke detector may sound continuously, as if there were a fire alarm.

Note:

battery replacement in indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, the sensor(s) causing the low battery indication is still fully operational.

Important:ÊÊUse only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.

GLOSSARY

The following terms are used throughout the manual.

ARM/DISARM: "Armed" simply means that the burglary portion of your system

is turned ON and is in a state of readiness. "Disarmed" means that the burglary system is turned OFF, and must be rearmed to become operational. However, even in a "disarmed" state, "emergency" and "fire" portions of your system are still operational.

KEYPAD: This is the area on your Keypad containing numbered

pushbuttons similar to those on telephones or calculators. These keys control the arming or disarming of the system, and perform other functions which were previously described in this manual.

ZONE: A specific area of protection.

PARTITION: An independent group of zones that can be armed and

disarmed without affecting other zones or users.

BYPASS: To disarm a specific area of burglary protection while leaving

other areas operational.

DELAY ZONE: An area of protection containing doors most frequently used to

enter or exit (typically, a front door, back door, or door from the garage into the building). The delay zone allows sufficient time for authorized entry or exit without causing an alarm. Consult your installer for the entry and exit delay times that have been set for your system during installation and record them on the separate sheet provided in this manual.

DAY/NIGHT ZONE: An area of protection whose violation causes a trouble

indication during the disarmed (DAY) mode and an alarm during the armed (NIGHT) mode.

WARNING!

THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or fire or other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example: ¥ Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass

an alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.

¥ Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices

will not work without power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.

¥ Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm

receiver. Even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a

metal object is moved into the path. ¥ A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough. ¥ While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they

may not activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according

to data published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors

used in conjunction with this System may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been

improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke cannot

reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke

detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector,

for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing

limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not

always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent

explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits,

children playing with matches, or arson. Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the

smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to

allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death. ¥ Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in

their installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do

create multiple beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by

those beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors,

closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or

spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their

detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient

temperature of protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection

performance can decrease.

Ð 61 Ð

WARNING!

THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

(continued)

¥ Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are

located on the other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of

the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms.

Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is muffled from a stereo, radio, air

conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may

not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers. ¥ Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be

out of service or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by

sophisticated intruders. ¥ Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient

time to protect themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system,

authorities may not respond appropriately. ¥ This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment

is designed to last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time. The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly. Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure their lives and property. We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones to learn about these developments.

ADEMCO ONE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

Alarm Device Manufacturing Company, a Division of Pittway Corporation, and its divisions, subsidiaries and affiliates ("Seller"), 165 Eileen Way, Syosset, New York 11791, warrants its security equipment (the "product") to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for one year from date of original purchase, under normal use and service. Seller's obligation is limited to repairing or replacing, at its option, free of charge for parts, labor, or transportation, any product proven to be defective in materials or workmanship under normal use and service. Seller shall have no obligation under this warranty or otherwise if the product is altered or improperly repaired or serviced by anyone other than the Seller. In case of defect, contact the security professional who installed and maintains your security equipment or the Seller for product repair.

This one year Limited Warranty is in lieu of all other express warranties, obligations or liabilities. THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE FACE HEREOF. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES MADE BY SELLER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS PRODUCT, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF ORIGINAL PURCHASE. ANY ACTION FOR BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, MUST BE BROUGHT WITHIN 12 MONTHS FROM DATE OF ORIGINAL PURCHASE. IN NO CASE SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR UPON ANY OTHER BASIS OF LIABILITY WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER'S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT. Some states do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

Seller does not represent that the product may not be compromised or circumvented; that the product will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or that the product will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. Buyer understands that a properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of a burglary, robbery, fire or other events occurring without providing an alarm, but it is not insurance or a guarantee that such will not occur or that there will be no personal injury or property loss as a result. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. HOWEVER, IF SELLER IS HELD LIABLE, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF CAUSE OR ORIGIN, SELLER'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT, WHICH SHALL BE THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLER. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. No increase or alteration, written or verbal, to this warranty is authorized.

EVENT LOGGING PROCEDURES

General Information

The system has the ability to record various events in a history log wherein each event is recorded in one of five categories (listed below), with the time and date of its occurrence. The Event Log holds up to 224 events, with the oldest event being replaced by the logging of any new event after the log is full. Using an alpha keypad, the Event Log can be viewed one category at a time, or can display all events, regardless of category (ALL EVENT LOG). The system also allows selection of displaying the COMPLETE log, or only those events occurring since the last installer service (RECENT). In addition, events in the other partitions can be viewed by users authorized to access those partitions. Note that events are displayed in chronological order, from most recent to oldest.
