Congratulations on your ownership of an ADT Security System. You've made a wise
decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology
today.
This security system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and
emergency. To realize the full potential of the system, it is important that you feel
comfortable operating it. Your system may consist of:
• iCenter/iCenter-i Advanced User Interface
• One or more Touchpads for system control
• Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus a selected
number of strategically placed smoke or combustion detectors
About iCenter/iCenter-i
• Home automation devices.
UL
The control of the home environment feature has not been evaluated by UL.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all zones, and provides
appropriate information for display on the iCenter/iCenter-i and/or Touchpads used
with the system. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically
transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm
monitoring station.
The iCenter/iCenter-i Interface
iCenter/iCenter-i is an intuitive, graphical interface that combines security and
home control with interactive Internet features. With clear, simple controls on a
touch-screen interface, the entire family will find iCenter/iCenter-i both easy to
learn and easy to use.
As a security and home-automation control, iCenter/iCenter-i can be used for:
• Quick and easy security system operation
• Control of the home environment, including the heating and air-conditioning
UL
system, lights, garage door, etc.
The control of the home environment feature has not been evaluated by UL.
As a household Internet appliance, iCenter/iCenter-i provides access to a wealth of
information, including:
• News
• Sports

About iCenter/iCenter-i (cont'd)
• Weather
• e-mail, and
• Live updates of user-selectable content such as your horoscope.
Keeping pace with advances in technology, iCenter/iCenter-i will continue to provide
additional Internet functionality, as it becomes available.
Navigating through iCenter/iCenter-i
Navigation through iCenter/iCenter-i typically begins from the "Home" screen. This
is iCenter/iCenter-i’s main default screen (starting screen) and is the first screen
you will see when iCenter/iCenter-i is powered up and initialized. It is from this
screen that you will select from the main menu. Once you have made your
selection, you will navigate through various sub-menus by touching buttons or icons
to perform the function you desire.
About Your Home Screen
Your "Home" screen is your gateway to your iCenter/iCenter-i Advanced User
Interface. From this screen you can:
UL
• access e-mail messages
• control the premises lighting, and most importantly,
• control your security system.
The control of the home environment feature has not been evaluated by UL.
Besides using your personal "Home" screen for E-mail messages, you may also
receive news/display and retrieve additional information of your choosing.
Your "Home" screen is displayed at all times, except when the system is armed or
you select another screen option.

Introduction to Your System
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency.
Monitoring is accomplished with various contact and motion sensors for perimeter
and interior burglary protection, plus strategically placed smoke, heat, or
combustion detectors.
Burglary Protection
The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned on or "armed" before
it will sense burglary alarm conditions. Your system provides three modes of
burglary protection: Away, Stay, and Night, and even allows you to “bypass”
selected zones of protection while leaving the rest of the system armed (e.g. this
enables you to arm the system but leave upper-story windows open.)
The system also provides a Chime mode, for alerting users to the opening and
closing of doors and windows even while the system is disarmed.
System Overview
Partitions
Partitions
PartitionsPartitions
This system provides the ability to arm and disarm up to eight different areas, each
as if it had its own control. These areas are called partitions. Partitions are used
when the user wants to disarm certain areas while leaving other areas armed, or to
limit access to certain areas to specific individuals. Each user of the system can be
authorized to operate all or only some partitions, and can be given different
privileges in each. Information about Partitions is presented later in this document.
Zones
Zones
ZonesZones
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 001,
sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 002, and so on. These
numbers will appear on the display, along with a Custom English descriptor for that
zone (if programmed), when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.
Entry/Exit Delays
Entry/Exit Delays
Entry/Exit DelaysEntry/Exit Delays
Your system has preset time delays, referred to 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 Touchpad will beep during the entry delay
period, reminding you to disarm the system. Ask your installer about the delay
times programmed into your system.

sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.
Memory of Alarm

When an alarm condition occurs, the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the

Fire 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.
User Codes
Each user must be assigned a name with a corresponding 4-digit user code in order
to gain access to various features and functions. Through iCenter/iCenter-i, you may
program users to access any and all of the following systems:
• Fire/Burglary
• Internet
Users for the systems are programmed in a central user setup location that provides
the specific questions for the user pertaining to each system. You may want these
users to be the same, but there are situations in which you may want a user to have
access to one system (e.g., Message Center) without having access to another (e.g.,
the Fire/Burglary system).
Internet Features
As a household Internet appliance, ICenter/iCenter-i provides access to a wealth of
information, including:
• News
• Sports
• Weather
• E-mail, and
• Updates of user-selectable content such as your horoscope.
Additionally, you may control all of iCenter/iCenter-i’s functions from any personal
computer or laptop that has Internet capabilities, including security system
functions (arming, disarming, etc.) and to check to see if you have a voice message.
12
Extended Functionality
Extended functions are advanced functions that can be accessed through a standard
Custom English Touchpad or through emulation mode on your iCenter/iCenter-i
touch screen. Refer to your Control Panel User Guide for these features.

zones intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause
an alarm when violated while your system is armed.
1. The system will not allow you to bypass fire or emergency zones.
2. To bypass zones, the system must be disarmed first.

How to Disarm Using a Keyswitch
To disarm the partition, turn the key to the right and release. If an alarm has
occurred, the red light will be flashing rapidly (memory of alarm).
How to Check the Status of Other Partitions
This system supports between one and eight Partitions (as configured by your
installer.) Partitioning enables a single physical alarm system to control up to eight
areas of protection (partitions). Each iCenter/iCenter-i and Touchpad is assigned a
default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's
information.
For example, if your physical site is a four-apartment housing unit, this alarm
system would be configured with four partitions. Each apartment’s zones (door,
windows, smoke detectors, etc.) are assigned to separate partitions, giving each
apartment independent arming/disarming control of its own partition (area). A
landlord or manager may be granted access to all partitions, so he/she can control
the entire system.
If a user is so authorized, an iCenter/iCenter-i or Touchpad in one partition can be
used to perform system functions in another partition. (Note that only those
partitions authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this
manner.)
