Sensors

Indoor Motion Sensors detect motion in a protected indoor area. When motion is detected the panel may respond by sounding chimes or an alarm.

Outdoor Motion Sensors detect motion in a protected outdoor area. When motion is detected, the system may respond by sounding chimes or turning on outside lights. These sensors are not used for intrusion detection.

Door/Window Sensors detect the opening of a door or window.

Smoke Sensors detect smoke and a significant rise in temperature. They have a built in siren that sounds when smoke or a significant rise in temperature is detected.

Freeze Sensors detect furnace failure. If the insi de temperature drops below 41

°F, the sensor will notif y the

panel. The sensor will s end a restore signal to the p anel when the temperature rises to 50°F.

Carbon Monoxide Sensors detect carbon monoxide. They have a built in siren that sounds when carbon monoxide is detected.

Modules

Appliance Modules can be programmed to turn appliances or fluorescent lights on and off.

Lamp Modules can be programmed to turn non-fluorescent lights on and off.

Universal Modules are primarily used for controlling devices other than appliances and lamps. Check with your installer for other applications.

Security System Components

The security system uses devices called sensors that use radio waves to communicate alarms to the Control Panel (panel).

The system is supervised, meaning that the panel checks the status of each sensor to detect problems. If the panel detects trouble it will notify you with beeps and indicator lights on the panel itself.

Your security system installation may include any of the following devices:

Control Panel

The Control Panel is used to operate and program your security system. It communicates to you through voice messages, beeps, and by lighting or flashing buttons. The panel can communicate to a central monitoring station, numeric pager, or both.

Touchpads

Remote Handheld Touchpads are used to control the security system primarily from within the home.

Keychain Touchpads are used to control the security system from within or near the outside of your home.

Audio Verification Module (AVM) is primarily used by the central monitoring station to monitor sounds and verbally communicate with a person inside the home. This feature is similar to a speaker phone feature on a phone.

How You Communicate to Your System

Sending commands or instructing your security system is done through key presses on the panel, touchpads, or through the use of a remote telephone.

Control Panel

You can enter commands for your security system thro ugh simple key presses on the panel. Depending on how your system is programmed, you may need to enter an access code for certain commands. An access code is a numeric code that allows authorization to operate your security system.

Note

The Master Access Code default is 1-2-3-4 when the security system is shipped from the factory. You should change your code after your system is installed (see “Programming Your System”).

Keychain Touchpad

Keychain Touchpads are handy for simple arming and disarming functions. They are portabl e and can be carried offsite in a purse or pocket

Telephone

Touchtone telephones can be used to communicate with your system while you are off-site. Ask your installer if you have this feature.

How to Use Your Control Panel

The panel interface consists of four rows of buttons.

❑ HOME SECURITY ❑ CODE ❑ HOME CONTROL ❑ EMERGENCY

Note

It may be necessary to enter an access code to arm your system. Check with your installer to see if this feature is enabled.

HOME SECURITY

Exit Delay

Exit Delay is the amount of time the system gives you to exit the home before the system is armed (between 5 and 254 seconds). This is programmed by the installer. When you arm you will hear beeps during the exit delay (see the table “Status Beeps” of this manual to determine the meaning of panel/system beeps).

Your Exit Delay is set for ___ seconds.

Entry Delay

Entry Delay is the amount of time the system gives you to disarm the system after entering the home. This is programmed by the installer. When you enter your home you will hear beeps during the entry delay (see the table “Sta- tus Beeps” of this manual to determine the meaning of panel/system beeps).

Your Entry Delay is set for ___ seconds.

Quick Exit

The Quick Exit feature is used when someone wants to briefly leave while the home is still armed (i.e. get the newspaper). This feature needs to be enabled by your installer. When you press the Disarm button the panel will announce exit time on. This will allow a designated exit door to be open for up to 2 minutes without triggering an alarm.

Note

The designated door may be opened and closed once. If you close the designated door behind you when you exit, you will have to disarm the system upon reentering. Leave the designated door open while using the Quick Exit feature.

The Home Security buttons are used to arm and disarm doors, windows and motion sensors in your system. The System Status button is used to give informati on on system activity.

Arm

Turn on i ntrusion/bu rglary p rotection for y our system. You can arm door/window sensors, motion sensors or both depending on the buttons you press.

The MAIN MENU includes the following buttons:

❑ Light Control ❑ Option # ❑ Sensor/Remote ❑ Access Code

Press the appropriate button. Depending on the button you pressed, the system will prompt you to continue by pressing other buttons on the panel.

Access Codes

Your security system has a master access code, access codes 1-5, and a panic code used f or arming and di sarming the panel. The master code is used for disarming and programming your system. Access codes 1-5 are generally used for children or as temporary codes for a baby-sitter or service personnel. The panic code may be entered to arm, disarm or subdisarm the system in a non-medical emergency situation. The panel will call the central station with a panic alarm report, but there will be no indication of an alarm at the panel.

Note

Codes are always needed to disarm the system. Depending on the pane l config uration, co des may be needed to arm the system.

Your system may be set up so that the master code or an access code is required when arming. If so, the panel will prompt you to enter a code when you attempt to arm the system.

Note

Because different codes can be entered using the same button presses you have to use caution when programming the panic code. You need to ensure that the panic code does not use the same button presses as other access codes. For example if the master code is 1234, do not program the panic code to be 2244. The panel wou ld inte rpret thes e codes to be the same code.

Station

When your security system detects one of the problems above, six rapid beeps sound every minute, until the trouble condition is corrected.

Silencing Trouble Beeps

To stop the trouble beeps, press the SYSTEM STATUS button or arm/disarm the system while the trouble condition exists. T ro uble bee ps will be gin 4 hours later, unless the trouble condition is corrected.

AC Power Failure

This condition occurs if your security system has been accidentally unplugged or if there has been an A C power outage. The backup battery will take over. If AC power is not restored within 15 seconds, the panel will go dark and alert you with trouble beeps. If you press any button, the display will light and pressing SYSTEM STATUS will confirm the AC power failure. If AC power is not restored within a programmed period of time (5-254 minutes) the system will call the central monitoring station (if programmed by installer). The backup battery, if fully charged, will last for 18 - 24 hours with no AC power.

System Battery Failure

This condition occurs if the emerg ency backup b attery has failed. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button to hear the trouble message. If your AC power is not working, your security system will shut down once the battery has failed. If the condition does not clear after AC power has been restored and 24 ho urs have passed, call your security system dealer.

Siren 1 or 2 Failure

Call your security system dealer.

System Access Alarm

The panel cover was opened while the system was armed. The system will call the central monitoring station to report a tamper alarm.

Sensor Failure

This condition occurs if a sensor is not communicating with the panel. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button to hear which sensor(s) failed. Perform sensor tests. It may be necessary for you to call your security system dealer if the problem continues.

Sensor Low Battery

This condition occurs if a system sensor has a low battery. The sensor may still be communicating with the panel. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button to hear which sensor has a low battery. It may be necessary for you to call your security system dealer to resolve this problem. Some sensor batteries can be replaced by the homeowner.

Fail-To-Communicate

This condition occurs if your security system cannot communicate to the central monitoring station. Your system will try to report to the central monitoring station 8 times before it tells you there is a Fail-To-Communicate problem. Status beeps will start and the System Status button will light. Press the System Status button to hear the trouble message. It may be neces sary fo r y ou to call your security system dealer if the problem continues.

Sensor Open

This condition occurs if a door or window is open, a system sensor h as been disturbed or tampered and not reset properly. For example, a Motion Sensor may be off the wall or a Door/Window Sensor cover may have been removed from the sensor. Your sy stem will indicate this condition to you by causing the System Status button to light. When you press this button, the system responds with Sensor # Name open. Correct the problem by resetting the sensor. If this condition continues, call your security system dealer

Sensor Tampered

This condition occurs when a sensor is physically tampered with. If the system is armed an alarm will occur. For example, the cover is taken off of one of the sensors. Your system will indicate this condition to you by causing the System Status button to light. When you press t his butto n, the system responds with, Sensor # Name tampered. Correct the problem by resetting the sensor. If this condition continues, call your security system dealer.

Option 50 Detected

The panel receiver may be experiencing some interference. The system will call to notify the central monitoring station about this problem.

Clearing System Status

Press the SYSTEM STATUS button, listen to the status message, then disarm the system to clear system status. If the trouble condition was a low CPU battery, perform a sensor test. The SYSTEM STATUS button should turn off if all trouble conditions have been corrected.

Testing

As an added safeguard, there are system tests you should do yourself on a regular basis. It is recommended that you test your system weekly.

Alarm System Limitations

Not even the most advanced alarm system can guarantee protection against burglary, fire, or environmental problems.

All alarm systems are subject to possible compromise or failure-to-warn for a variety of reasons.

Testing Communication

Communication between your system, the central monitor ing station and your pager should be tested at least once per week to make sure you have the proper telephone connection.

To perform a phone test:

1. Open the panel cover.

2. Enter the master access code.

3. Press the Test button twice. The panel will announce

Phone test, press again to change or done to select.

4. Press the DONE button. The panel will announce Phone test is on twice. If the test

is successful the panel will announce Phone test ok within 3 minutes. The panel will announce Phone test is on three times if you have a pager . If the phone test t o the pager was successful, your pager will display -101-101. If the test is

❑ If sirens are not placed within hearing range of per-

sons sleeping, in remote parts of the premises, or if they are placed behind doors or other obstacles.

❑ If intruders gain access through unprotected points of

entry or areas where sensors have been bypassed.

❑ If intruders have the technical means of bypassing,

jamming, or disconnecting all or part of the system.

❑ If power to sensors is inadequate or disconnected. ❑ If freeze or any environmental sensors are not lo cated

in areas where the appropriate condition can be detected.

❑ If smoke does not reach a Smoke Sensor. For exam-

ple, Smoke Sensors cannot detect smok e in ch imneys, walls, roofs, or smoke blocked by a closed door. Sensors may not detect smoke in other levels of t he build ing. Sensors may not warn in time when fires are caused by smoking in bed, explosions, improper storage of flammables, overloaded electrical circuits, or other hazardous conditions.

❑ If telephone lines are out of service.

Inadequate maintenance is the most common cause of alarm failure. Therefore, test your sys tem at least on ce per week to be sure sensors, sirens, and phone communications are all working correctly.

Although having an alarm system may make you eligible for reduced insurance premiums, the system is no substitute for insurance.

WARNING!

Security system devices cannot compensate you for the loss of life or property.

Emergency Planning

Since an emergency is always unexpected, you should develop plans to help prepare for a variety of emergency situations. Periodically discuss and rehearse emergency plans to include the following:

❑ Understand how to use your security system ❑ Know the normal state of doors and windows; open,

closed, or locked.

❑ Escape fast! (Do not stop to pack.) ❑ Use a different escape route if closed doors feel hot to

the touch.

❑ Crawl and hold your breath as much as possible to

help reduce smoke inhalation during your escape.

❑ Meet at a designated outdoor location. ❑ Emphasize that no one should return to the p remises if

there is a fire.

❑ Notify the fire department from a neighbor’s phone. ❑ Emphasize that no one should enter the premises if

they hear sirens in the house.

❑ If you arrive at the premises and hear sirens, do not

enter . Call for emergency assistance from a neighbor’s

Your Floor Plan

Use the following guidelines when drawing your floor plan (use the next page to draw your floor plan):

❑ Show all building levels. ❑ Show exits from each room (two exits per room are

recommended).

❑ Show the location of all security system components. ❑ Show the location of any fire extinguishers.
