General Information
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on the
configuration of your system. The system consists of a master keypad for controlling system operation,
various wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and optional smoke or
combustion detectors to provide early fire warning. In addition, optional wireless keypads may have
been installed to allow you to control the system away from the master keypad. The system may also be
controlled from a remote telephone and can be used as a speaker phone.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status, display
appropriate information on the keypad display, and initiate appropriate alarms. Your system may also
have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a
central alarm monitoring station, and may also be capable of two-way voice communication with the
central station.
The user features of this security system are listed below. Ask your installer which features
have been programmed for your system.
•STAY and AWAY arming modes: By using these modes you can protect either the perimeter only,
or the entire premises.
•3 panic key functions: Designated keys allow you to manually activate fire, personal emergency, or
silent alarms. Refer to the PANIC KEYS section for detailed information.
•Real-time clock: Keypad displays current time. Refer to the CLOCK/CALENDAR section for
procedures for setting the time.
•Voice announcement of system status: The master keypad’s built-in speaker announces system
status at the press of a key. Refer to the CHECKING SYSTEM STATUS section for detailed
information.
•Message center: The system allows recording and play back of brief messages. Refer to the RECORDING/PLAYBACK MESSAGES section for procedures.

False Alarm Prevention
Many false alarms are caused by simple accidents, like forgetting to close a door when you leave. The
LYNXR-ENSIA is equipped with several features that help prevent false alarms. Some of these
features are optional or programmable. Although turning off some of these features may provide
additional security, it may also increase the chances of false alarms. Your installer can help you decide
if you want to use the optional false alarm prevention features or not. The following provides a brief
explanation of the features included with your security system that help prevent false alarms from
occurring, and what you should do if such alarms occur.
•Exit/Entry Delays: Your security system has been programmed with delay times that allow you to
exit the premises after arming, and to disarm the system upon entry before an alarm occurs. If you
leave the premises too late when exiting, or disarm too late when arriving home, it will cause a false
alarm. If an alarm occurs, you should disarm the system immediately, and wait for your security
monitoring company to call you.
•Exit Alarms: Leaving the premises and forgetting to close the door is a common cause of false alarms.
The security system will sound an alarm, and display EA, indicating, “exit alarm”. The security system
provides extra time for you to disarm the system before dialing your monitoring company. Disarming
the system immediately may prevent a call to your alarm monitoring company.
•Exit Time Restart-Exit Delay Restart/Reset: If you leave the premises and enter again before the
exit delay has expired, the system will restart the exit time giving you more time to leave. If there are
less than 10 seconds left to exit, the system will sound fast beeps, indicating an alarm will occur soon if
you don’t exit or disarm immediately. When this occurs, you should disarm the system and arm again
when you are ready to leave. The Exit Delay can also be restarted by entering CODE + STAY
•Auto Stay Feature: If you arm the system in the “AWAY” mode from the LYNXR keypad or RF
keypad but no one exits, the alarm system will automatically change to the “STAY” mode. This will
prevent you from tripping alarms by remaining on premises. Disarm the system and arm away again
when you are ready to leave.
•Burglary Abort Window: Your security system has a delay between the time a burglary alarm
sounds, and the time the monitoring company is called. This delay gives you time to disarm the
security system before the alarm is reported to the monitoring company. This delay is factory preset
at 30 seconds, but may be increased or decreased by your installer.
•False Alarms: If a burglary or fire alarm condition occurs and the system has been disarmed, the
keypad will display “CA” or cancel. If this was a false alarm, wait for the monitoring company to call
you. They will verify your security code or password and prevent them from calling emergency
personnel to respond to a false alarm.

General Operation
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 01, sensing devices on windows in the master
bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These numbers appear on the display when an alarm or trouble
condition occurs.
Fire Protection
The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an alarm if
a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information
concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from the premises.
Burglary Protection
Your system provides two modes of burglary protection: STAY and AWAY. STAY mode protects the
perimeter only, allowing you to freely move within the premises. AWAY mode protects the entire
system. Both modes provide an entry delay time that allows you to reenter the premises without setting
off an alarm. The system also allows you to bypass selected zones before arming the system, if desired.
Refer to the BYPASSING PROTECTION ZONES section. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for
alerting users to the opening of protected doors and windows while the system is disarmed.
You must turn on ("arm") the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary
alarms. To arm the system, enter your user code then press the desired arming key (AWAY or STAY).
Refer to the ARMING THE SYSTEM section for detailed procedures and information.
Security Codes
At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal 4-digit security or “master user” code. You
must enter the user code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system
functions. As an additional security feature, other users who do not need to know your code can be
assigned up to 6 different security codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for procedures on
adding security codes to the system.
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, the keypad and optional external sounders will sound for about 15-seconds, and
the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. After 15-seconds, the siren stops temporarily and
voice announcements of the zones in alarm begins. When these zones have been announced, the siren
sounds again and the cycle repeats itself, until the system is disarmed (code + OFF) or until alarm bell
timeout occurs. (To reduce false alarms message reporting is delayed 30 seconds. The delay can be
reduced to 15 seconds, or increased up to 60 seconds at your option. Consult with your installer to
ensure that the correct delay has been programmed.) If your system is connected to a central
monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the
system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed indicating memory of alarm. Refer to the
DISARMING THE SYSTEM section for information about clearing the memory of alarm display

Two-Way Voice Feature
The ADT Safewatch
central station and an individual at the premises. This feature allows the central station to listen, talk
to or conduct a two-way conversation with an individual(s) at the premises and allows the operator to
gather information about the nature and location of the alarm that may be helpful in responding to
police or rescue departments. If the Two-way Voice Feature has been programmed and an alarm
condition is detected, the system sends an alarm message to the central station. After
acknowledgement is received, a “listen in to follow” message is sent to the central station. In response
to this message, the central station operator can enter commands that allow him to initiate a 5-minute
voice session. The options allow the operator to enter the following modes:
• Talk: Allows the operator to speak to individuals at the premises through the system speaker.
• VOX (2-way voice): Allows the operator to hold a two-way (speak and listen) conversation with
individuals at the premises.
•Listen: Allows the operator to listen to any activity at the premises through the system microphone.
If a subsequent zone is violated during a voice session, the system will terminate the session and
process the alarm. During the voice session, the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs will
alternately blink in the Talk and VOX Modes but not during Listen Mode.

Arming the System
NOTE: The control will provide a short confirmation ding when it has been armed using an RF Key Fob.
Arming in Stay Mode
Use this mode when you are staying home, but expect someone to use the entrance door later. Close all
protected perimeter windows and doors before arming. The green READY indicator on the keypad
should be lit if the system is ready to be armed.
To arm in STAY mode:
Your User code**
+ STAY
The keypad beeps three times and displays the armed STAY message. The red ARMED indicator lights
and the system announces “armed STAY–exit now.” When armed in STAY mode, the system will sound
an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the
premises. Late arrivals can enter through the entrance door without causing an alarm, but they must
disarm the system within the entry delay period or an alarm will occur.
Restarting Exit Delay While System Armed
Ask your installer if this feature is active for your system. If active, you can restart the exit delay at
any time after arming in STAY mode. This is useful if you wish to open the entry/exit door to let
someone in after arming the system, and avoids having to disarm the system and then re-arm it again.
To restart exit delay while system is armed in STAY mode: Press STAY
Arming In Away Mode
Use this mode when no one will be staying on the premises. Close all protected perimeter windows and
doors before arming. The green READY indicator on the keypad should be lit if the system is ready to

Entry/Exit Delays
Exit Delay
Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through the
designated exit door without setting off an alarm. A slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay
period, if programmed. . During the last 10 seconds of the exit delay fast beeps will sound as a warning
that the delay time is nearing its end. The exit beeps cannot be silenced.
Exit Alarms Exit Alarm Active
To minimize false alarms sent to the alarm monitoring company, your system may have been
programmed for this feature. Ask your installer if Exit Alarm is active for your system.
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted
when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry
delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the
message "CA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No
message is sent to the alarm monitoring company. To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone
must be made re-secured; to clear the display, enter your security code and press the

Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the designated entrance
door. You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The
keypad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. There are two entry
delays (if programmed). The first is for your primary entrance and the second can be used for a
secondary entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system.
See your installer for delay times programmed for your system.
NOTE: The control will provide a long confirmation ding when it is disarmed using an RF Key Fob.
Use the OFF key to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. See the SUMMARY
OF AUDIBLE NOTIFICATION section for information, which will help you to distinguish between fire
and burglary alarm sounds.
IMPORTANT!
If you return and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT enter the premises, but call the police from a
nearby safe location. If you return after an alarm has occurred and the main sounder has shut itself off,
the keypad will beep rapidly upon entering. This indicates that an alarm has occurred during your
absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE

Smoke Detector Recommendations
UUUU
With regard to the number and placement of smoke and heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted
below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms
and areas of the household. The equipment should be installed as follows: A smoke detector installed
outside of each separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each
additional story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and
unfinished attics.
In addition, 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.

Security Codes
General Information
For additional security you (the Master User Code) can assign secondary user codes to individual users
enabling them to perform specific system functions. These secondary users are identified by "user
numbers" when their codes are assigned. You can assign up to 6 user codes (2-digit user numbers 03-
08). Note that the master user is the only one who can assign codes to secondary users, and is
designated user no. 02; user no. 01 is the Installer’s code.
All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions (a system armed with one
user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the Babysitter Code described
below.
Babysitter Code (User 07): This code can be used to arm the system, but cannot disarm the system
unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to someone (such as a
babysitter) who needs to arm/disarm the system only at certain times. The Babysitter Code is assigned
to User 07.
Duress Code (User 08): This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm the
system under threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the alarm
monitoring company of your situation, if that service has been provided. Duress Code is assigned to
User 08.
The Duress Code is useful only when the system is connected to an alarm monitoring
company.
To Add/Delete a User or Change a User's Code
Changing the Master User Code
Follow the procedure for changing a user's code, but enter User No. 02 and enter the new code twice.
IMPORTANT: Temporary users of the system (e.g., babysitters, cleaning staff) should not be shown
how to use any system function they do not need to know, such as bypassing protection zones for
example.
Sequential key depressions for all steps in a procedure must be made within 2 seconds of one another,
or else the entire entry is aborted and must be repeated from its beginning.
Note: The system prevents User Codes (including the duress code) from being duplicated. If you have
attempted to assign a duplicate 4 digit code, 4 beeps will sound and the entry is rejected. Any
previous existing code will remain unchanged. Choose a different new 4 digit code and repeat

Routine Care
• Treat the components of your security system as you would any other electrical equipment. Do not
slam sensor-protected doors or windows.
• Keep dust from accumulating on the keypad and all protective sensors, particularly on motion

• The keypad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft cloth. Do not spray water or
any other fluid on the units.
First, determine if the zone(s) displayed are intact and make them so if they are not. If
the zone uses a wireless detector, check that changes in the room (moving furniture,
televisions, etc.) are not blocking wireless signals from the detector. If the problem has
been corrected, the zone descriptor(s) and FAULT should disappear from the display. If
not, key an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) to clear the display. A fault condition
can also indicate a wiring problem. If the “FAULT” display persists, notify your service

Maintaining your system
The components of your security system are designed to be as maintenance-free as possible. To make
sure that your system is in working condition, do the following:
1. Test your system weekly.
2. Test your system after any alarm occurs (see the TESTING THE SYSTEM section).
Low Battery Conditions in Wireless Sensors
Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects low battery
conditions in wireless sensors, including smoke detectors, personal emergency transmitter, and the
portable wireless keypad, and displays a “LOW BAT” message, on the master keypad, which also beeps.
A low battery in a wireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the master
keypad (e.g. 5827) will display “00”. In addition, a wireless smoke detector with a low battery also emits
a "chirp" sound approximately once every 20–30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke detector with
the weak battery.
NOTE: A low battery message means that battery replacement in the indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the
meantime, a sensor with a low battery is still operational.
To silence Low Battery Warning Tones at the Keypad: Press the OFF key.
The low battery message display will remain on as a reminder. When you replace the weak battery
with a fresh one, the sensor will send a "good battery" signal to the control when the sensor is activated
(opening/closing of door, window, etc.).
To clear the “LOW BAT” message enter: + OFF key.
Your user code
When replacing batteries, use only those recommended by your installer.
Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and applications, provide 2–4 years of
service. 3-volt lithium batteries may provide from 4-7 years of operation. Actual battery life will depend on the
environment in which the sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had to send, and
the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, and large swings in temperature may all
lead to the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.
Changing the ADT Safewatch QuickConnect Security System Battery
In the event of an AC power loss, the ADT Safewatch
rechargeable, nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The battery pack should be replaced when a “LOW
BAT” message with no zone number is displayed.
NOTE: The battery pack (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-SHA) should be changed every four years and must be replaced by
a qualified service technician.
Following battery pack replacement, rechargeable batteries may take up to 48 hours to charge. The
“LOW BAT” message may be displayed after one minute, however it should clear within 4 hours or by
entering Test Mode.
It is your responsibility to make sure that your system is in good working order. It's easy to test your
system; just refer to your owner handbook or call 1-888-238-7374 and follow the simple instructions. If
you find that a part of your system is not working properly, call ADT at 1-888-238-7374 to request
repair service.

WARNING!
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or fire or other
emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of
reasons. For example:
• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or
disconnect an alarm warning device.
• Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work without
power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put in properly.
Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the
signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not activate or
provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may not work are
as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start
where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke
detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector, for example, may not
sense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind
of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking
in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing
with matches, or arson. Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it
operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation
manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, and
intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes
place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking,
painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability.
Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of protected area approaches
the temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection performance can decrease.
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other
side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they
are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm
is muffled from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however
loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect themselves
from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as
long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This
alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.
Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance.
Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure their
lives and property.
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones to
learn about these developments.
