For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at
point of entry
to a home or commercial premises. This would include any
every possible
skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building.
In addition, we recom mend that radio backup be us ed in a security system so
that alarm signals can sti ll be sent to the Cen tral Moni toring Station in the e vent
that the telephone lines are out of order ( alarm signals are nor mally sent over
the phone lines).
EARLY WARNING FIRE DETECTION
Early warning fire detection is impor tant in a home. Smok e and heat detectors
have played a key role in reduci ng fire deaths in the Unit ed States. W ith regard
to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's
National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72). Thes e recomm endations can be f ound on
page 43 of this manual.
This manual is a step-by-step guide that will acquaint you with the system's
features and benefits. It def ines the components and their functions, describes
their operation, and provides clear step-by-step instructions for normal and
emergency procedur es. K eep this m anual in a c onv enie nt place so t hat you ca n
refer to it as necessary.

Congratulations on your ownership of the VISTA-10P Security System. You've made a
wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology
today. This system provides:
• Three forms of protection: burglary, fire* and emergency
• At least one keypad which provides control of system and displays system status
• Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary protection
• Smoke or combustion detectors* designed to provide early warning in case of fire.
Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status
messages over the phone lines to a Central Monitoring Station.
* Commercial installations and some residential systems may not include fire
protection – check with your installer.

Burglary Protection
• Several modes of burglary protection: Stay, Night-Stay, Away, Instant, Maximum.
STAY: arms perimeter zones only and entry delay is on
INSTANT: same as STAY, except entry delay is off
NIGHT-STAY: arms perimeter zones and selected interior zones; entry delay on
AWAY: arms perimeter and all interior zones, entry delay is on
MAXIMUM: same as AWAY, except entry delay is off
• You can BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the system armed.
• CHIME mode alerts you to the opening of protected doors and windows while the
system is disarmed.
Fire Protection
• Fire protection is always active (if installed) and an alarm sounds if a fire
condition is detected
• If necessary, you can manually initiate a fire alarm using the keypad (if
programmed).
• Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for information regarding fire protection,
smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes.
Security Codes
• You were assigned a 4-digit security code during system installation.
• Use your security code when arming and disarming the system, and when
performing other system functions.
• Other users can be assigned different security codes, each with different
authority levels, which define the system functions a particular user can perform.
6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ

6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ
Zones
• The system sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones,” which are
specific areas of protection (e.g., front door, kitchen window, etc.).
• Zone numbers are displayed at the keypad when an alarm or trouble condition
occurs on a sensor.
Arming, Step-Arming and Disarming Burglary Protection
• The system must be armed before the burglary protection can sense intrusions.
• To arm your system, enter your user code followed by t h e desired arming key.
• If programmed, the [#] key can be pressed instead of entering the security code
when arming the system.
• You can also use the step-arming key, if programmed, to arm the system, which
lets you use a function key to a rm the system in one of three modes by simply
pressing the key repeatedly.
• To disarm the system, enter your user code then press the [OFF] key.
Alarms
• 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.
Memory of Alarm
• 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 (e.g., “fire”).
• The message remains displayed even after disarming the system, but can be
cleared with another “off” sequence.
Phone Access
• If included, a phone module permits you to access the system via a touch-tone
phone, either on-premises or by calling-in when away.
• You can receive synthesized voice messa ges over the telephone regarding the
status of the security system.
• You can arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands
remotely via the telephone, with voice confirmation provided after each comma n d
entry.
• Complete information regarding the use of this feature is provided in a separate
manual entitled “Phone Access User's Guide” that is supplied with the voice
module.

Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay.
([LW'HOD\
Exit delay gives you time to leave t hrough the designated exit door without setting
off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after arming your system in any arming
mode and Alpha Display keypads display the message “You May Exit Now.” When
“You may exit now” disappears, the system is fully armed. If programmed, a slow
beeping will sound during the exit delay period until the last 10 seconds, which then
changes to fast beeping (alerting you to the end of exit delay). If you cannot leave by
this time, you should stop, disarm the system, and start over to avoid a false alarm.
Exit Delay Restart/Reset.
after arming STAY, you can re-start the exit delay at any time – simply press the
[✱] key, then let that person in. The system automatically re-arms when exit delay
expires, which avoids having to disarm the system and then re-arm it again.
In addition, when the system is armed AWAY, reopening and closing the ent ry/exit
door before exit delay time expires (e.g., reentering to get a forgotten item) will reset
the exit delay time.
(QWU\'HOD\
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the
designated entrance door. You must disarm the system (simply enter your security
code) before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad beeps
during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. There are two
entry delays (if programmed). The first is for your primary entrance and the second
can be used for a secondary entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to the
keypad to disarm the system.
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the INSTANT or
MAXIMUM arming mode. This mode provides great er security while on the
premises or while away for extended periods of time.
See your installer for your delay times.
Exit D elay: seconds Entry Delay 1: seconds

Entry Delay 2:

([LW$ODUPV
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior
zone is faulted when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), t h e system sounds
an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry
delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "CANCELED ALARM" or "CA " is
displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No
message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station.
To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear the
display, enter your code plus OFF.
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or
interior zone is still open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is
sent to the Central Monitoring Station. The message ""EXIT ALARM" or "EA" is
displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. To
stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the
display, enter your code plus OFF a second time.
An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door or interior z one is faulted within two
minutes after the end of the exit delay.
Your system may have been programmed for this feature to minimize fals e alarms sent to the Central
Monitoring Station. Ask your installer if "Exit Alarm" is active i n your system. If so, check this box.
