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.

In homes with more than one sleeping area a smoke detector (indicated by an inverted "s" in a circle) should be provided to protect each area.

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.

Case of Fire

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 Function Keys

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 time expires and the system will disarm.

If you enter through a wrong door or fail to disarm the system before the entry delay expires, you will generate an immediate

* Enter your personal passcode and press ENT.

Your system may be programmed to send an "opening" report to the Central Station when disarming.

a My system sends an opening report.

□ My system does not send an opening report.

ENTI before the delay

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.
