Fire Safety
Residential fire is a leading cause of accidental death. Most fire related
deaths occur at night when the occupants suffocate in their sleep from
smoke and deadly gases, rather than fi'om bums. To help reduce this
risk, the following three-step program should be implemented:
1. Minimize fire hazards around the home. Smoking in bed,
cleaning with flammable liquids such as gasoline, leaving
children home alone, and unsafe Holiday decorations are
some of the more common causes of household fire.
2. Install a fire warning system. The primary purpose of this
system is to protect lives, not property, by giving the earliest
possible warning of the danger. In the event of a fire, the
alarm system generates a loud intermittent tone distinctly
different than a burglar alarm.

3. Plan and practice an escape plan. A fire alarm warning may
be wasted unless the family has planned for a quick
evacuation. Because there may be very little time between
detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly, it is
important that every member of the family understand
exactly what to do. . .

Since stairwells and hallways may be blocked during a fire,
exiting through a bedroom window at night should be an essential
part of the escape plan. If the sleeping area is above the ground
floor, provide a means for safely descending outside the building if
one does not already exist.
As part of this plan, all family members should arrange to meet
at a predetermined location away from the house (such as a
neighbors), to verify that all are accounted for.
In
Case of Fire
1.
The primary purpose of a fire warning system is to protect
lives. In the event of a fire alarm, quickly leave the building and
call the fire department fi'om a neighbor's or public telephone.

If it is determined the alarm was accidentally tripped, the bell
should be silenced, the detectors reset and your alarm
company notified immediately of the situation. -j
The Command Center
Your security system helps to secure life, property, and
investments against fire, theft, and bodily harm. The Command
Center is an advanced digital arming station that offers a variety
of features unavailable with any other system. Function,
versatility, and ease of operation make the Command Center the
ideal system for the home or office.
With custom programming, the Command Center is tailored to
meet your individual needs. For easy identification, each area of
your property can be given its own code number which
corresponds to the numeric display indicators of the Command
Center. The Command mode allows you to perform a variety of
functions with maximum simplicity — only the touch of two or
three keys is required to control almost every feature on the
Command Center. Three function keys allow common commands
to be performed with the touch of just one kdy.
The Command Center — putting the control of your security
system right at your fingertips.
Maintenance and Service
The Command Center requires very little maintenance, however,
the system should be tested weekly to insure early detection of a
need for service. A test schedule and maintenance program can be
arranged with your alarm compnay. If a change in operation is
noticed during normal use or testing, call for service as soon as
possible. Do not attempt to repair the control panel, arming
stations, or detectors yourself.

Your Command Center Keypad
The Command Center is an illuminated digital arming station that
is the command center for your entire security system. The
Command Center does much more than just arm and disarm your
security system; several system commands can be initiated by the
Command Center. A system status display panel keeps you
informed of security conditions, as well as store alarm
information for future reference. A built-in sounder alerts you of
several different conditions which may require action. The
Command Center also includes three function keys which can
perform virtually any system command (except arming
commands) with the touch of one key. It also indicates various
security system conditions such as your system's armed status,
protective zone status, power supply status, and Command mode
status.
Zone Designation
Each area of your property is assigned to a specific zone with a
number. A zone can be a single door (like the entrance door) or
an area of your property (like the second floor). Each zone is
represented by its zone number on the Command Center display
panel. There are three basic types of zones:
1. Perimeter: All exterior doors and windows of the building,
forming the outside "wall of protection" around your
building.

2. Interior: All interior forms of burglary protection (carpet
mats, motion sensors, inside doors, etc.).
3. 24 Hour: A zone that remains armed all the time and is not
disarmed from the Command Center (fire, panic zones, etc.).
Armed Status Indicators
Three lights are used to indicate the armed status of your security
system. Each of these lights is explained below. During an exit
delay period these lights flash on and off slowly.
Perimeter — When-this red indicator is lit, your perimeter
zones are armed. When this indicator is not lit, your
perimeter zones are not armed.
Interior — When this yellow indicator is lit, your interior
zones are armed. When this indicator is noi lit, your interior
zones are not armed.
Instant — This red indicator shows how your system is
armed: either instant or delayed. When this indicator is lit,
your security system is armed without entry/exit delay time.
When the system is armed with entry/exit delay, this
indicator is not lit.
Zone Status Indicators
Zone status indicators on the Command Center annunciate the
condition of your system's protective zones. Each zone has its own
indicator which can show three different zone conditions (listed in
order of priority).
Zone Bypass — When a zone is bypassed (not armed with
the rest of the system), its indicator light flashes on and off
slowly.
Faulted Zone — A faulted zone is indicated by a steadily
lighted zone status indicator.
Zone Alarm Memory — When a zone has been faulted
into alarm its indicator flashes on and off rapidly.
The Zone Status Indicators also indicate if the system is ready to
arm or not. If the zone status indicators are not lit, the system
can be armed by entering your personal passcode or any of the
arming commands available to your system. If any of the zone
status indicators are lit, the system has a faulted zone. Correcting
the faulted zone will usually mean closing a door or window.
AC Power Indicator
When the red AC indicator lights steadily, your security system
is operating from AC voltage. When the AC indicator is
flashing, your security system is operating on back-up battery
power. If the indicator continues to flash, contact your Central
Station.
Command Mode Indicator
When the COMMAND bar is pressed, the red Command Mode
indicator lights steadily to show that the system is ready to accept
a command. The Command Mode indicator remains lighted for
15 seconds or until the command is completed.
Digital Keypad
The Command Center has a lighted digital keypad used to enter
passcodes and system commands into the security system. As
you touch the keys to enter a passcode, the Command Center
emits a short beep tone to indicate that your entry is accepted.
COMMAND Bar
The I COMMAMD bar is used to perform one- or two-digit
COMMAND functions.
NOTE: Some systems require a security passcode to be entered
before the function keys or COMMAND bar can operate.
O My system requires a security passcode:
_________________
d My system does not require a security passcode.
Enter mm Key
When the passcode has been completed, you must press the ENT
(ENTER) key to activate the passcode. If you do not press the
ENT key, the passcode is ignored by the security system.
System commands (entries that begin with the COMMAND bar)
do not require the ENT key to activate the entry.
When entering a passcode or command at the Command Center,
each key must be pressed within five seconds of the last key
entry. After five seconds have expired from the last key entry,
the entire entry is cleared and the passcode must be started over.
Function Keys
The Command Center has three function keys (labeled A, B, and
C). The function keys can be used to perform system commands
with the touch of one key. Your alarm technician programs the

Arming Your Security System
Disarming Your Security System
Your security system can be armed in many different ways,
depending on the arming command used. Arming commands are
those commands used to arm the system. The most basic arming
command is to arm the entire system. This is accomplished by
entering your personal passcode and pressing EHT , or by
entering COMMAND 1.
There are several other arming commands to arm the system. For
example: arm only the perimeter, arm only portions of the
perimeter, etc. These arming functions and their respective
commands are described later in this guide. Remember:
To ARM your $«curity system;
* Enter your personal pa^^code and press ENT. I
or * Enter an arming Command. |
Your system may be programmed to send a "closing" report to
the Central Station when arming.
My system sends a closing report.
a My system does not send a closing report.
Your security system is disarmed by entering your personal
passcode and pressing ENT . When your system is armed, you
must enter the premises through a designated entry door to
prevent an immediate instant alarm condition. Opening the door
starts an entry delay time and the Command Center emits a
pulsing "beep" tone to remind you to disarm the system. Enter
your personal passcode and pressing

a My system sends an opening report.
□ My system does not send an opening report.
Silencing the Alarm
The alarm audible has a specific period of time that it sounds
before it automatically shuts off. If an alarm occurs and you want
to silence the siren before the time expires, simply enter your
personal passcode plus | ENT | and the alarm will stop.
To SILENCE your security system:
• Enter your personal passcode and press ENT
for audible alarms.
or • Enter COMMAND 4 for service alerts.
NOTE: Some security systems are programmed so that the
sirens cannot be silenced until the zone is restored to a normal
(non-alarm) condition.
O My system can be silenced by entering my personal passcode.
D My system cannot be silenced unless the zone is returned to
normal.
Reporting an Alarm
O My system reports to a Central Station.
O My system does not report to a Central Station.
Your security system automatically disconnects your telephone
from its line when transmitting reports to the Central Station.
This prevents reports from being interrupted during transmission.
Once the report has beeft completed, the telephone line is restored
to normal service.
NOTE: If damage occurs to the telephone line and your
telephone service is interrupted, reports will not be transmitted to
the Central Station unless an alternate means of transmitting
signals is installed in your system.
Command Center Warning Signals 4.
The Command Center contains a built-in sounder used as an
interior warning device. A bell or siren can also be mounted on
the exterior of your premises to alert your neighbors of an
emergency, and to give the police an audible reference to help
them locate the alarm. Several different warning signals are
emitted from the Command Center to alert you when an event
occurs (not all signals will be heard outside). Some of these tones
are optional, and can be selected by your alarm technician.
1. Entrance Warning: The Command Center beeps during
the entry delay period to remind you to disarm your security
system. If the security system is not disarmed before the
entry delay expires, an alarm signal may be sent to the
Central Station and the alarm audible sounds.
5.
Watch Tone: When the Perimeter Watch Mode is
activated, the Command Center emits a brief tone to alert
you when any perimeter zone is faulted and the zone indicator
lights to indicate which zone is faulted. The tone sounds
only when the door or window is opened. It does not sound
again for that zone until the door or window is closed and
then reopened.
Service Tone: Some zones may be programmed to sound
a service tone when they are faulted. The zone indicator light
annunciates which zone is faulted. To silence the service
tone, emer COMMAND 4 or enter your personal passcode.
plus ENT j, at the Command Center.
NOTE: Some zones, such as fire zones, may be

Areas where personnel are working can be kept disarmed until
they are finished and the areas are vacated. To arm all zones,
simply disarm the unit and rearm using COMMAND 1 or your
personal passcode plus | I^4T| .

Duress Passcode
G 1 have this feature.
G 1 do not have this feature.
A duress passcode is used to send a silent alarm signal to the
Central Station. It arms or disarms the security system just like
your personal passcode; however, as the system is armed or
disarmed, an alarm signal is transmitted to the Central Station. If
you have the duress feature, this command center activates
duress in one of two ways, as described in Passcode +1 or
PasscodeS. Be sure that your security technician indicates how
this feature works in your system.
Application
The duress passcode is used when someone threatens you and
demands that you disarm (or arm) your security system. By
disarming (or arming) with a duress passcode, the Central Station
is alerted of an alarm situation.
Passcode + 1
Passcode + 1 is based on your personal passcode. By increasing
the last digit by one, the duress feature is activated. Example; If
your personal passcode is 1234, the duress passcode is 1235.
G My system uses Passcode + 1 for duress.
NOTE: If your system has a security passcode that "unlocks"
the COMMAND bar, increasing the last digit of that passcode by
one will also send a duress signal to the Central Station.
PasscodeS
The second type of duress passcode is called PasscodeS. This is a
dedicated passcode, separate from and different than your
personal passcode.
G My system uses PasscodeS for duress.
Important!
Be sure to press the

Force Arming the System

(!!!) Force Arming will not be reported to the Central Station.
Under normal conditions, your Command Center cannot be master
armed while there is a faulted zone. Force arming allows you to
arm the system with any zone faulted other than priority zones.
(Priority zones are zones that must be normal when the system is
armed.) Force arming arms only those zones that are ready to arm.
Any zone faulted at arming time is bypassed (not armed).
To arm with zones faulted:
1. Enter your personal passcode and press the||g|||l
enter an arming command (COMMANDS 1, 2, or 3). The
Command Center emits a "beep" tone with each keytouch
indicating a zone is faulted.
2. Press the COMMAND bar and then the | ENT key.
The system now arms all zones which are normal.
NOTE: If the fault is restored (returned to normal) while
arming, the zone will be armed. If the fault is restored after
arming, how your system is programmed determines
whether or not the zone will be armed with the rest of the
system.
key, or
When force arming, a trouble report is sent to the Central Station
indicating that the system was force armed, and which zone was
faulted. A closing report may also be sent by those systems that
are programmed for opening and closing reports.
Force arming can be programmed to apply to most arming
commands as well as your personal passcode. Your alarm
technician will check the boxes below to indicate which arming
commands can force arm your system.
I can force arm with my personal passcode.
ID I can force arm with COMMANDS 1, 2, or 3.
Security System Glossary
Arm and Disarm — Your security system is always "on" 24
hours a day. This allows for 24-hour fire detection and police
alert. When you enter your personal passcode into the Command
Center you are arming or disarming your "burglary" protection.
When the burglar protection is armed, intruders will be detected
and initiate an alarm condition. When the burglar protection is
disarmed, the security system will not detect intruders.
Bypass — The process of deliberately not including certain
zones of protection when arming the security system.
Central Station — A facility where trained personnel monitor
your security system 24 hours a day. Your system may contact
Central Station personnel to dispatch the proper authorities.
Closing Report — A signal to the Central Station indicating
that the system has been armed. Commercial accounts may use
these reports to indicate that the business is now closed.
Command Center — Command centers displays system
status, sounds warnings with a sounder, and may also control
many other functions of a security system including Arming and
Disarming.
Entry Delay — A predetermined amount of time provided by
the security system to enter an armed building through a delay
door. Once the delay door has been opened, the entry delay
begins. If the security system is not disarmed before the delay
time expires, the system goes into alarm.
□ A faulted zone will be armed with the rest of the system if
restored.
□ A faulted zone will not be armed with the rest of the
system if restored and will not be armed until I disarm the
security system and re-enter an arming command.
I am allowed to have a maximum of.
when force arming.
Exit Delay — A predetermined amount of time provided by the
security system to leave the armed building through a delay door.
Once the system is armed, the exit time begins. You must exit
the building before the exit delay time expires.
Faulted Zone — If a zone is not normal (a door or window is
open), that zone is considered faulted.
Force Arm — A zone that is faulted can be left out of the
security system when force arming. Force arming reduces the
level of security, and should be used with discretion.
Master Arm — An arming command that arms all of the
detection system, including both interior and perimeter zones.
Opening Report — A signal to the Central Station indicating
that the system has just been disarmed. Commercial accounts
may use these reports to indicate that the business is open.
Passcode — Personal Passcode is used to arm or disarm the
Command Center. The Security Passcode is used to access, or
unlock, the COMMAND bar.
Perimeter Arm — An arming command that arms only the
perimeter of your building.
Shunt — See "Bypass"
Zone — Each area of your building is assigned to a specific
zone. A zone can be a single door or an entire room or area of
your building (like the second floor). Most zones are either
perimeter, interior, or fire (24 hour) zones. 25
