Introduction

The ADT FOCUS® 200 PLUS is a user-friendly security system that monitors your site’s detectors and alarms. Fully programmable, the FOCUS® 200 PLUS allows you to control hundreds of critical security functions from one menu-driven interface as simple to use as the automated teller machine (ATM) at your local bank.

The ADT FOCUS® 200 PLUS consists of a central control unit, an operating panel, and up to 255 protection points. The control unit is protected by a heavy-gauge steel cabinet and protected by a tamper sensor. While monitoring protection points 24 hours a day, the controller itself is electronically monitored by trained ADT personnel. If a hazard or security breach occurs, the appropriate authorities (police, fire) are alerted. In case of a maintenance problem, ADT service personnel can also be notified.

All functions are accessed through the system operating panels or through card/key readers.

FOCUS® 200 PLUS Features

System Overview

• Attractive, easy-to-use, menu-driven operating panel.

• Up to 255 protection points in as many as eight independent groups from one central location.

• Manual activation or deactivation of any function.

• Ability to turn group(s) on in either the AWAY or STAY mode. STAY mode automatically bypasses certain point types. Check with your ADT service technician to see if your system contains any of these point types.

• Ability to bypass points for maintenance or service.

• Ability to program automatic activation/deactivation of security groups.

System Overview (cont’d)

• Capacity of up to 255 individual operating panel users, each having various security privileges.

• Capacity of up to 999 individual card/key reader users, each having various levels of access.

• Control and recording of employee access to workplace areas along with

time and date.

• Recording of security-related activities.

• Ability to send messages to up to 8 paging services.

• Ability to trigger a panic by pressing the * or # key on the operating

panel.

Although the FOCUS® 200 PLUS has many powerful features, ADT has

designed the system to operate as close to “turnkey” as possible. Once the FOCUS® 200 PLUS is set up for your site, operators will need only swipe or insert a card or key, or enter a six-digit ID code once or twice a day.

Control Unit

The FOCUS® 200 PLUS control unit - the brains of your security system is a powerful microcomputer that manages every function of your security system. All information about your site’s security is stored in this unit.

Operating Panel

The FOCUS® 200 PLUS operating panel was designed for intuitive, efficient operation by personnel with little or no experience using security systems.

All operations are accessed through four sequential menus.

The "?" key on each menu provides context-specific help. The QUICK START section will help even the most instrument-shy operator get up to speed in under an hour.

Protection Points and Groups

The FOCUS® 200 PLUS monitors up to 255 protection points in up to eight independent fire and burglary groups. The system lets you designate group names in ways that make sense for your specific needs. For example, “Office” and “Warehouse” could cover two sets of entry doors that activate/deactivate independently.

Turning groups on and off allows different tasks to be carried out at different times of day, all while maintaining the optimal level of safety and security.

By scrolling through the FOCUS® 200 PLUS menu options, you may turn groups on/off in the AWAY or STAY mode, or bypass points at any time for maintenance or servicing. The system also allows you to check points or groups to review their status, and alerts you to the precise location of an activated alarm. Although some features may be manually activated or deactivated at any time, FOCUS® 200 PLUS also features powerful scheduling capabilities for automated, worry-free operation.

The combination of point/group control and scheduling features allows operators of the system to construct versatile scenarios quickly and with no previous programming knowledge.

System Overview (confd)

User Access and Security

Each FOCUS® 200 PLUS card/key reader acts as a security gateway to your workplace, or to a specific area where certain employees have access and others do not. This feature, which operates on manual-input codes, Wiegand, proximity, magnetic cards, or Marlok keys, allows tracking of all securityrelated activities, either through a continuous printout or by accessing the

1000-event history log. The FOCUS® 200 PLUS supports up to 999 different users (maximum 255 user codes, the rest are access cards only) and various levels of security with all the flexibility you will need to assure that every employee has the proper level of access to the workplace areas.

System Overview (cont’d)

Automated Event Recording and Printing

The ADT FOCUS® 200 PLUS provides complete documentation and event

recording capabilities. The system prints all desired events and stores the

last 1000 system events in memory. The types of events recorded in the

memory are:

• Changes in the system • Use of a card/key reader, status.

• Activation/deactivation of points or groups.

In addition to the 1000-event history log, you may obtain a real-time printout of all events at multiple remote printers.

The system’s powerful data-handling capabilities are indispensable for:

• Keeping track of system • Verifying workplace safety and status security

• Assuring smooth operation • Documenting employee access.

Summary

ADT’s FOCUS® 200 PLUS offers the security industry’s best combination of versatility, value, and ease of use. It handles all your site’s security and

access control needs through a pleasant, intuitive, menu-driven user interface. Although the system uses a powerful microprocessor, it was designed so that non-technical personnel can easily access all its features.

The QUICK START section is meant as a guide to introduce new users to the operation of the FOCUS® 200 PLUS operating panel. After reading QUICK START and working through the exercises (a process that should take less than one hour), the user will be familiar with all of the system’s most important functions and operations. Advanced operations and specific ways to get the most out of the system are covered in the rest of this manual.

Modifications to user or system data.

Introduction

In recent years the pace of electronic development of security systems has greatly accelerated. This has brought the price range of reliable monitored security systems to a level that is affordable to most households and nearly all businesses. As a result, the number of security systems installed is expanding swiftly.

Since these security systems are a most significant deterrent to unwanted intrusion, structures protected by security systems are generally safer than those without; this is a benefit to both the residents and the local law enforcement.

However, from time to time, many security system users operate their system improperly and an alarm signal is generated in error. This situation is referred to as a “false alarm.”

When a security system monitoring center receives an alarm signal, your local police and/or fire department will be advised that there is an emergency at your location requiring their timely response. Even if each user has only one false alarm every two years, the police could potentially be called upon to respond to nearly ten million false alarms each year. In most cities, more than 90 percent of all alarms reported to the police are FALSE! In many cities, the police spend as much as 15 percent of their time and resources on false alarm-generated “wild goose chases.” In turn, this:

False Alarm Prevention

• Diverts police and/or fire department personnel from legitimate calls.

• Puts the community members at unnecessary risk.

• Wastes taxpayers' money.

• Embarrasses the security system user.

• Diverts and wastes security company resources.

False Alarm Prevention (confd)

Statistics verify that more than 75% of aii faise aiarms are caused by aiarm system operators

Of these, at least 7 out of 10 are simple errors made by a user while turning the system on or off or when leaving or entering the building. Other typical causes are:

• Entering an area or opening a door or window whose protection has been turned on.

• Animals or large insects roaming through areas with protection turned on.

False alarms on fire-monitored systems are typically caused by burning food, heavy smoking in a room, or steam from a shower.

Working as a team, you and ADT must have a goai of zero faise aiarms

In many cities, the municipal government and police department are attempting to make alarm system users more aware of their responsibility to reduce false alarms by:

• Requiring permits for alarm system users issued by licensed security companies.

• Charging fines for multiple false alarms and, in some areas, escalating fines if false alarms persist.

• Refusing to respond to an alarm when the rate of false alarm signals remains high.

You must heip eiiminate faise aiarms

By installing this dependable, state-of-the-art FOCUS® 200 PLUS system,

which is monitored by ADT Security Systems, you have already taken the

first step.

False Alarm Prevention (confd)

Additional steps are to carefully read and understand this manual, to become thoroughly familiar with your system by practicing entry and exit commands, and to learn how your monitoring system can become part of your workday lifestyle. Learn your Personal Identification Number (PIN), which is necessary when you communicate with your ADT Customer Monitoring Center. Then teach all others who will be using the system. Make sure they are confident they can flawlessly operate the system and are able to promptly cancel a false alarm, should one occur. All users must be very familiar with the operating procedure to cancel false alarms.

Preventing causes of false alarms

The ADT brochure entitled Helping You Prevent False Alarms refers you to this manual for any of several actions you may take to prevent false alarms. These actions are listed below:

1. When You Test Your System: Follow the procedure under the heading TESTING THE SYSTEM in this manual. Make certain your system is

“out of service” before you start testing the various sensors.

2. If You Move to a Different Building: ADT offers a special

consideration to customers who move, provided you give to your local ADT representative the name of the party that purchases or leases your present building. Do not take your operating panel or any part of your system with you. Ask ADT to take your system out of service just before the new party takes ownership of your present building.

3. If You Get a Watchdog: Nearly all types of animals can cause false

alarms. If you get a watchdog or have other animals, do not allow them into a room with an area sensor when your system is turned on.

4. If You Hire Janitorial Help: Assign a special user code to each janitor,

and enter the code into the system using the procedure under the heading SYSTEM PROGRAMMING in this manual. Carefully train your help to turn the system on, turn it off, and cancel false alarms. They must also understand the entry and exit delays and be able to respond to a verification call from your ADT Monitoring Center.

False Alarm Prevention (confd)

5. If You Fumigate Your Building: The chemical fog used in the fumigation process may be sensed as smoke by fire alarm smoke detectors and may also adversely affect area sensors. Therefore, be sure to notify ADT BEFORE starting.

6. If You Change Your Telephone: Changes in the location of the telephone outlets or telephone numbers could compromise the effectiveness of your security system. Have an ADT service technician inspect your system immediately after any such changes.

7. If You Install Anything Near Any System Device: If you install any electrical or electronic equipment within a few feet of any element of your security system, it could cause the security equipment to malfunction. Discuss such installation plans with an ADT service technician prior to proceeding with the installation.

8. If You Remodel or Renovate Your Building: During the course of remodeling or renovating, there are often changes in telephone and/or electrical circuits. In addition, large clouds of construction dust are generated. Any of these can compromise the effectiveness of your security system.

In addition, any change in the position of walls, or door or window openings may disable certain sensors in your system. A change in the location of mirrors, pictures, or other wall hangings, as well as fans or large plants, could cause a false alarm when an area sensor is activated by movement or reflections of movement.

Remember to discuss any renovation or redecorating with your ADT representative before you start construction or redecorating, and once again when you complete it.

Introduction

The QUICK START section is designed to familiarize new users with the operation of the FOCUS® 200 PLUS operating panel in under an hour. It will introduce you the FOCUS® 200 PLUS’ four primary menus and guide you through the logic behind one or two operations from each menu.

Think of the QUICK START section as a “crash course” on how to access basic menus and functions of your new security system. After reading the QUICK START section and going through the exercises, users will be better able to define their particular control and programming needs and to pinpoint problems, then locate the needed information in this manual and follow the specific instructions confidently and efficiently.

Operating Panel Functions

The operating panel is the primary interface between you, the operator, and the electronic components forming the “brains” of your FOCUS® 200 PLUS security system. The panel consists of a liquid crystal display (LCD) on the left and a numeric keypad (similar to the buttons on a TouchTone phone) on the right. Users can access most FOCUS® 200 PLUS operations through the LCD. Some operations require both the LCD screen and the keypad.

Quick Start

Operating panel functions are divided into three main groups:

• Programming — Operations relate to system settings, user names, user

ID numbers, schedules, names of points and groups, and time/date functions.

• System — Operations allow you to turn burglary protection on and off,

bypass protection points, respond to system alarms, obtain a history log, and extend your site’s close time.

• Test — Operations enable operators to test protection points, security

groups, and hardware.

Quick Start (cont’d)

Normal Inactive Screen

When there are no alarms or troubles and no one is using the operating panel, the Normal Inactive Screen will display:

Press the ? to view the Help Screen, which will aid you in responding to an alarm or trouble condition.

The top line of the display will indicate a particular Burglar Alarm (BA) group and the second line will indicate that group’s status. To view status of other BA groups, press More.

As you enter your ID code, the system will verify your entry by displaying

“X.” If you make a mistake entering your ID code, press Clear and re enter the ID code

Responding to Alarms

During an alarm, your system’s alarm annunciating devices (bell, siren, lights, and/or operating panel, depending on the optional devices you selected) will be activated. The operating panel and horns will sound an intermittent tone (with a 5-second pause every 10 seconds) to audibly annunciate a fire alarm and a steady tone to audibly annunciate a burglary alarm.

BURGLARY NOTE: Do not enter the premises until police arrive. Have a

Quick Start (cont’d)

key available to let the police in.

FIRE NOTE:

HOLDUP NOTE:

If you are on the premises when an alarm occurs,

EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY.

During a holdup or hostage (duress) situation, try to remain as calm as possible. All employees should be instructed on the operation of holdup devices. Users with ID codes should be instructed on the use of the Ambush/Hostage and Duress features.

Viewing Current Alarms

During an alarm (excluding holdup, hostage and duress alarms), the operating panel will display the current alarm by type and point description.

► ► ►

►

◄ ? 1 Fire Alarm

Smoke Detector No Other Alarms

◄ Continue ►

◄ ◄ ◄

◄

Quick Start (cont’d)

To view current alarms, perform the following steps:

1 Using the operating panel’s numeric keypad, enter a valid ID code to

display the Action Menu 1 (see page 19) if no burglary groups are on; or press the “Turn off’ selector button (if burglary groups are on) to deactivate all annunciating devices.

2 If any burglary groups are on, complete the steps under “Turning Off

Burglary Protection” in the SYSTEM OPERATION section. When all burglary groups are off, press Continue to display Action Menu 1.

3 Press See alarms to display the alarm type, point number, and

description. 4 Press Prev or Next to display additional alarms. 5 Press Quit to display Action Menu 1.

Entering Your Personal ID Number

The first step in performing any function within the FOCUS® 200 PLUS system is to enter your personal six-digit ID number.

To enter a valid ID code, perform the following steps:

1 Enter your six-digit personal ID number. You should hear a short beep

after each digit is entered. After your number has been accepted, you will

hear a longer beep. 2 Now wait about 15 seconds and try to enter another, random six-digit

number. What happens now?

The number is recognized as an invalid ID code and the operating panel

will display “Code Incorrect, Try Again.”

3 If you make a mistake, press “Clear” to re-enter the number. The operating panel is active for 10 seconds after a valid code is entered. You must enter a menu selection within that time or the operating panel will deactivate, requiring the input of a valid ID code again. Once you have selected a menu item, however, the panel remains active for a full minute before becoming inactive. This timeout feature automatically secures your FOCUS® 200 PLUS security system in the event of a distraction or emergency that causes you to step away from the operating panel.

EXERCISE: PANEL ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION

Enter your ID code. Count to 15 after you hear the long beep. The operating panel should now become inactive. Enter your ID code again. As soon as you hear the long beep, press the More selection once. The screen should change to the next menu, Action Menu 2 (see page 21). Wait a few seconds and press More again. You should now be on Action Menu 3 (see page 23). Now wait a full minute. What happens?

If you waited a full minute in the last exercise, your operating panel should have entered its timeout phase. In other words, you have one minute after entering your last menu selection before the operating panel shuts down.

Hostage

If this feature has been enabled, you can activate a silent holdup alarm by entering your ID code and incrementing the last digit by 2. For example, if your ID code is 011234, enter 011236 instead. Note that an ID code with a last digit of 8 becomes 0 and a 9 becomes 1).

The Navigational Menu Selections

Quick Start (cont’d)

Each of the four Action Menus has several selections, depending on user privilege. Among these are the navigational menu selections, which take you from one menu to the next and back again. The two navigational selections from these menus are More/First and Quit/Previous.

The More/First Selection

The More selection allows you to scroll through the Action Menus. At the last menu designation, the More selection changes to First. Selecting First brings you back to the first Action Menu. The position (bottom right) of the key does not change.

Quick Start (cont’d)

EXERCISE: THE MORE/FIRST SELECTION

Enter your ID code and press the More selection three times. You are

now at the last Action Menu screen, and the More selection on the

screen has changed to First. Choosing First will now bring you back to

the first Action Menu screen. Repeat the steps two or three times to

verify that you have seen each screen before.

The Quit/Previous Selection

Pressing the menu selection Previous on the bottom left of each Action Menu screen returns you to the previous Action Menu. Choosing Quit from Action Menu 1 deactivates the operating panel.

EXERCISE: THE MORE/PREVIOUS SELECTION

Enter your ID code and press the More selection once, then press the

Previous selection. You should be back at Action Menu 1. Now choose

More three times and Previous three times. Again you should be back

at Action Menu 1. Experiment with the More and the Previous

selections until you feel comfortable navigating through the four

Action Menus.

Now return to the Action Menu 1 (choose Previous until its

designation changes to Quit). Choose Quit to return to the inactive

operating panel display.

Other Navigational Selections

Later on, when you begin working in the submenus of the FOCUS® 200 PLUS system, you will encounter other navigational selections such as

Enter, Done, Next, Pgdn, and Continue. The first two are used at the end of

operations such as entering a new group name or changing an ID code. Next,

Pgdn, and Continue are specific to certain submenus. Their meaning is

similar to More in the Action Menus (i.e., they move you to the next logical step in the programming or operational procedure).

Summary: Navigational Selections

Every Action Menu screen contains two navigational selections, More/First and Quit/Previous. More/First allows you to scroll forward among the four Action Menus, while Quit/Previous brings you to the previous menu screen (from screen 2-4) or inactivates the operating panel (from screen 1). If you are not completely comfortable with the navigational selections, go back and repeat the exercises before continuing.

Turning BA Groups Off

When an ID code is entered and any BA (Burglary) group is on, you will be presented with the following screen:

Action Menus 1-4 - Main Features

Now that you are familiar with the navigational and help features common to all FOCUS® 200 PLUS menus, it’s time to take a closer look at what distinguishes one menu from another. To perform all the exercises here, your ID code will need to have access to all levels of operation.

Operating panel Action Menus 1-4 give you access to all the features in your security system through just 14 feature selections (three each on Action Menus 1 and 2, four each on Action Menus 3 and 4). These 14 selections, in turn, lead you logically and intuitively through the system submenus.

The FOCUS® 200 PLUS operating panel was designed to maximize functionality while eliminating memorization of complex commands; one menu leads you to the next — and the next, if necessary — until your operation is complete.

Action Menu 1

the group, point, or user name:

Letters are entered by pressing the key corresponding to them on the

keypad. Pressing a key once, twice, or three times enters the first,

second, or third letter shown on the button. For example, press the 5

key three times to enter the letter L. The letters Q and Z are the

fourth letters for the 7 and 9 keys, respectively.

Numbers are entered by pressing the 0 key once to enter the number

0, or by pressing the 0 key repeatedly to scroll through the numbers

until the correct one is displayed.

Spaces are entered by pressing the 1 key.

Symbols are accessible by pressing the 1 key and scrolling through

the entire character set using the CHR (backward and forward) keys.

Hint: Scrolling through the entire alphabet will take less time if you

hold the keys down instead of pressing and releasing them.

Summary

After reading through the Quick Start section and going through the exercises, you should be familiar with the operating panel of the FOCUS® 200 PLUS security system. If you are uncertain of any operation, return to that part of this section and repeat the exercise.

Quick Start (cont’d)

System Operation Overview

Operating Panel

Your FOCUS® 200 PLUS security system is controlled through interactive

operating panels consisting of a numeric keypad for entering data; a fourline, 17-character (per line) display; and 8 selector buttons for choosing operating functions.

Operating Panel

Your “key” to the system is your personal 6-digit identification code, which

provides access to all operating functions. The system can be programmed to limit the operational capabilities of each ID code and user.

As each digit of an ID code is entered from the numeric keypad, the

operating panel will emit a short beep. When the final digit of a valid ID code is entered, the operating panel will emit a longer beep, signifying the ID code

was accepted.

Note: If you enter 18 incorrect digits, the operating panel will go into “lock out,” preventing further entries for 60 seconds.

__________________System Operation Overview (confd)

As selector buttons are pressed, the operating panel will display system status, selection menus, prompts, and help screens to guide the user through the various operational capabilities assigned to that user. The messages displayed on the operating panel can be customized by programming unique descriptions for the name of each protective point, group of protective points, holiday, and users.

Note: The operating panel remains “active” for 10 seconds after the entry of a valid ID code. However, pressing a selector button within the initial 10 seconds extends the “active” period to 60 seconds.

Upon entry of a valid ID code, the operating panel will display the first of four Action Menus. These Action Menus display all the operating functions the user can access. To choose a displayed function, simply press the corresponding selector button.

If you encounter a problem or require additional information during the operation of the system, simply press the Help button located in the upperleft corner of the operating panel. The display will then provide instructions and information associated with the specific items displayed on the screen. The use of the "Help" button will not interfere with the system operation in process. Press Quit or the upper-left button again to exit the Help display.

If a system trouble or error message is displayed, refer to the

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE section. It provides a list of these messages,

a brief explanation of each message, and the required action to resolve the problem.

Note: The contrast of the display screen can be adjusted at any time. Simply press the [0] and [#] keys simultaneously which are located on the numeric keypad. The contrast adjustment options will be shown on the display screen. To increase the contrast, press the “CONTRAST (+)” selector button. To decrease the contrast, press the “CONTRAST (-)” selector button.
