eeping pace with advances in technology, iCenter will continue to provide
additional Internet functionality, as it becomes available.
Navigating through iCenter
Navigation through iCenter typically begins from the "Home" screen. This is
iCenter’s main default screen (starting screen) and is the first screen you will see
when iCenter 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 Advanced User Interface. From
this screen you can:
access telephone and e-mail messages
•
control the premises lighting, and most importantly,
•
control your security system.
•
Besides using your personal "Home" screen for E-mail and telephone messages, you

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.
Partitions
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.
System Overview
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 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
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.

System Overview (cont'd)
A
larms
When an alarm occurs, iCenter (and any other touchpads) and external sounders
will sound, and the zone(s) causing the alarm are displayed. 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 number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the
problem are displayed, along with the type of alarm (e. g. FIRE, ALARM). These
remains displayed until cleared by disarming the system.
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, you may program
users to access any and all of the following systems:
Fire/Burglary
•
TeleSMART
•
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., TeleSMART) without having access to another (e.g., the
Fire/Burglary system).
Internet Features
As a household Internet appliance, iCenter 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’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.

TeleSMART Messaging Features
TeleSMART is an option available with iCenter, which provides you and your family
with the conveniences of a full-featured digital answering machine. In addition to
all the features of a digital answering system, TeleSMART offers much more,
including caller ID (if service is available), multiple mailboxes, a memo feature, and
a unique Privacy feature that enables you to divert ALL calls to the TeleSMART
mailbox for a duration you select – such as during mealtime, baby’s nap time, etc.

caller to leave a message. If multiple mailboxes are in use, the message can
instruct the caller to press a key (1-4) corresponding to the desired user’s

keys, plus a speaker/microphone to record and retrieve voice messages. The
system can also be set so that a user's messages are automatically played
whenever that user disarms the security system from a TeleSMART touchpad.
Playback Upon Disarm
Depending on how iCenter and TeleSMART are set up, messages can be played back
when the system is disarmed. If multiple users and mailboxes are set up, the
messages for a user can be played back when that user disarms the system
Messages and Memos
Like any digital answering system, TeleSMART records incoming telephone
messages. TeleSMART also enables users to record “Memos” for themselves or for
other users. For example, you may record a memo for your child – then when your
child returns from school and disarms the system, your memo is played back ahead
of any telephone messages.
When TeleSMART answers a call a recorded greeting instructs the

Privacy Feature
The Privacy feature turns off all telephone ringers and lets TeleSMART answer
your calls. This can be useful if you do not wish to be disturbed at certain times.
A simple pull-down menu lets you select the Privacy duration (from 30 minutes to 8
hours). When Privacy is selected (via a check box), TeleSMART will take all calls
for that duration, or until you turn it off.
Use the Message Menu to check for any messages that may have been left while
Privacy was turned on.

peed Key (Macros)
The system can store a string of up to 32 keystrokes, which can be activated
anytime by simply pressing the “A, B, C, or D” keys on your touchpad. 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
procedures for using this feature.
Using Schedules
Your system may have been programmed with schedules for 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
procedures.

Device Timers
The system provides up to 20 "timers" that can be used to control various devices,
such as lights or appliances. These timers are similar in concept to the individual

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 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, a iCenter 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.)
To check the status of other partitions perform the following:
ACTION SCREEN
1. From the "Home" screen press the
SECURITY
screen.
2. Press the "Current Partition" tab (lower edge
of the screen; in this case it displays P1). The

Introduction to Fire Alarm System Operation
Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, providing continuous
protection. In the event of an emergency, the installed smoke and heat detectors
will automatically send signals to your Control/Communicator, triggering a loud
interrupting sound from the touchpad. An interrupted sound will also be produced
by optional exterior sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your touchpad and
remain on until you silence the alarm.
In Case of Fire Alarm
1. Should you become aware of a fire emergency before your detectors sense the
problem, go to your nearest touchpad and manually initiate an alarm by
pressing the panic key assigned as FIRE emergency (if programmed by the
installer) and hold down for at least 2 seconds.
2. Evacuate all occupants from the premises.
3. If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify your local Fire
Department immediately.
Fire Alarm System Operation
If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the cause of the alarm. The zone
descriptor of the zone(s) in an alarm condition will appear at the touchpad.
Silencing a Fire Alarm
1. Silence the alarm by entering your code and pressing the OFF key. To clear the
display, enter your code and press the OFF key again
2. If the touchpad does not indicate a READY condition after the second OFF
sequence, press the READY key to display the zone(s) that are faulted. Be sure
to check that smoke detectors are not responding to smoke or heat producing
objects in their vicinity. In this case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.
3. If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in the detector.
Clear it by fanning the detector for about 30 seconds.
4. When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by entering your code
and pressing the OFF key.
Fire Display Lock
If several zones produce an alarm before any are silenced, the system can be
programmed to lock the touchpad display with the first zone that produced an
alarm. Ask your installer if your system has been activated with this feature. To
display the other zone(s), press the [✴] key for each zone. Also the “A”, “B”, or “C”
keys can be programmed to scroll the touchpad display to view the previous or
subsequent fire alarms.

Recommendations 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.
E
arly 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 smoke detectors

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

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.

2
Fire Alarm System Operation (Cont'd)
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).
Recommendations for 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.
33
Fire Alarm System Operation (cont'd)
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 — many
die going back.

Introduction to User Code Setup
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, you may program
users to access any and all of the following systems:
Fire/Burglary
•
TeleSMART
•
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., TeleSMART) without having access to another (e.g., the
Fire/Burglary system).

How to Set Up a User Code for TeleSMART Use Only
Users that have access to the security system, Internet, and TeleSMART should be
programmed in the procedure described in Section: User Codes. Users that are to
have access only to the TeleSMART options (no security or Internet options) must
be programmed here using the procedure described below.
TeleSMART user numbers and user codes are independent from security system
codes, but, if desired, TeleSMART can let you control your security system from a
telephone by assigning codes as follows:
If TeleSMART user code is... That user can access...
Unique to TeleSMART system, TeleSMART system only.

TeleSMART Messaging Features
Introduction to TeleSMART Messaging Features
TeleSMART is an option available with iCenter, which provides you and your family
with the conveniences of a full-featured digital answering machine. In addition to
all the features of a digital answering system, TeleSMART offers much more,
including caller ID (if service is available), multiple mailboxes, a memo feature, and
a unique Privacy feature that enables you to divert ALL calls to the TeleSMART
mailbox for a duration you select – such as during mealtime, baby’s nap time, etc.

caller to leave a message. If multiple mailboxes are in use, the message can
instruct the caller to press a key (1-4) corresponding to the desired user’s
mailbox, and then leave a message. The system then announces the greeting for
that user and automatically stores the caller's message in that mailbox.

be used in your system – these provide a two-line LCD display, standard control
keys, plus a speaker/microphone to record and retrieve voice messages. The
system can also be set so that a user's messages are automatically played
whenever that user disarms the security system from a TeleSMART touchpad.
Playback Upon Disarm
Depending on how iCenter and TeleSMART are set up, messages can be played back
when the system is disarmed. If multiple users and mailboxes are set up, the
messages for a user can be played back when that user disarms the system
Messages and Memos
Like any digital answering system, TeleSMART records incoming telephone
messages. TeleSMART also enables users to record “Memos” for themselves or for
other users. For example, you may record a memo for your child – then when your
child returns from school and disarms the system, your memo is played back ahead
of any telephone messages.
When TeleSMART answers a call a recorded greeting instructs the

Privacy Feature
The Privacy feature turns off all telephone ringers and lets TeleSMART answer
your calls. This can be useful if you do not wish to be disturbed at certain times.

TeleSMART Messaging Features (cont'd)
A simple pull-down menu lets you select the Privacy duration (from 30 minutes to 5
hours if enabled at the iCenter). When Privacy is selected (via a check box),
TeleSMART will take all calls for that duration, or until you turn it off.
Use the Message Menu to check for any messages that may have been left while
Privacy was turned on.
TeleSMART Operational Structure
TeleSMART features can be accessed through iCenter, a TeleSMART touchpad, and
through a telephone. Not all features are accessible through iCenter and some
features are only accessible through a telephone.
TeleSMART operation is presented first using iCenter, then using a TeleSMART
touchpad and finally those features that can only be performed through a telephone
provided.

example, you might want to let them know you went to the store. These users would

How to Record Outgoing Greetings
When TeleSMART answers a call, the caller hears a recorded greeting (known as
the outgoing message or OGM). The system includes a pre-recorded greeting, but if
desired, you can record your own greetings.
The greeting can instruct a caller to press a key 1-4 (corresponding to user
mailboxes), that lets the caller record a message in a particular user's mailbox.
When recording a greeting:
1. Be sure to include instructions for callers to press the appropriate key (1-4) corresponding
to the desired mailbox. For example: "To leave a message for Kimberly, press 2; to leave a
message for Kaitlyn, press 3."
2. Leave a few seconds of silence at the end of your greeting to give callers time to make their
selection. This is necessary because callers must make a mailbox selection before the "record
now" beep.

voice can be heard at the TeleSMART touchpads and auxiliary speaker.
3. Simply speak into the telephone mouthpiece and say “pick up the phone” or
something similar to get the attention of those at the premises. Remember, the

About the Toll Saver Feature
The Toll Saver feature lets you call in to the system to check if there are new
messages (determined by the number of rings). This lets you hang up before
incurring toll charges.
The Toll Saver feature works in combination with the security system. First, you
must turn Toll Saver on (shown below), but it becomes active only when the security
system is armed in the AWAY or MAXIMUM mode. The Toll Saver feature is
inactive when the security system is disarmed or when armed STAY or INSTANT.
When Toll Saver is active (option is on and system is armed AWAY or MAXIMUM), the
“distinctive ring” feature is automatically disabled.

2 rings = There are new messages/memos in one or more of the mailboxes
4 rings = There are no new messages/memos in any of the mailboxes
2. To save toll charges if there are no new messages, hang up after the third ring.
About Message Beeps
The system can alert you to new messages whenever you pick up the telephone
receiver, if desired. If the message beeps feature is turned on and you have new
messages, the system beeps over the dial tone when you pick up the receiver.

Introduction to Advanced System Features
While most of the commonly used security functions are available from
iCenter’s advanced user interface, there are some less used, advanced
features that can either be accessed through Touchpad Emulation mode on
the iCenter or a standard Custom English Touchpad.
Touchpad (Console) Emulation Mode
Console Mode allows you to use an iCenter interface just as you would a
regular system touchpad. In this mode, you can use either iCenter’s touch
screen "touchpad,” or the touchpad keys (if available on your model). All
commands shown in Console Emulation mode can also be executed from a
standard Custom English Touchpad.
How to Enter Console Emulation Mode
To access the touch screen "touchpad," do the following:

Temporary Open/Close Schedules
Temporary schedules allow you to override the normal schedules
programmed by the installer. Temporary schedules can be in effect for up to
1 week, and take effect as soon as they are programmed.
Schedules are comprised of an arming (closing) time window and a disarming
(opening) time window. A time window is simply a defined period of time, at
the end of which arming or disarming will occur.

Programming Device Timers
Device timers consist of an ON time and an OFF time, and selected days of
the week in which they are active. There are up to 20 timers that can be used
to control various devices, such as lights or appliances. Your installer will
have programmed the appropriate devices into the system (up to 96 devices
can be programmed).
Each timer controls a single device (designated as an output number) that
you select. For example, timer 1 might be set to turn the porch lights on at
7:00pm and turn them off at 11:00pm. Timer 2 might turn on the air
conditioner Monday through Friday at 4:30pm to cool the premises before
you arrive at 5:00pm, and turn it off at 10:00pm when you are retiring for
the night. If desired, different timers can control the same device. For
example, timer 2 could be used Monday through Friday as in the previous
example, and timer 3 could be set to turn the air conditioner on and off at
different times Saturday and Sunday.
