IMPORTANT NOTICE

Your security system consists of a DSC NT9005 controller and various wireless devices.
The controller is the “brain” of your security system. It controls and checks all the detectors, and communicates with the central station (if remote monitoring is enabled). You will access system functions with your NT9005 controller, which is described on pages 2 and 3 of this manual. Each NT9005 has a siren, number pad, emergency keys, and five function keys.
Using the NT9005 keypad you can send commands to the system and check the current system status. Your installer will mount the NT9005 in a convenient loca­tion inside your premises.
Your security system can provide monitoring of intrusion, fire, and emergency. The security system has several zones (monitored areas). Each of these zones will
have a detector (motion detector, glassbreak detector, door contact, etc.). A detec­tor sends signals to the NT9005 which will respond according to programming.
A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and – if the system is remotely monitored – your central station of an emergency situation. Security systems are generally very reliable but they may not work under all conditions and they are not a substitute for pru­dent security practices or life and property insurance. Your security system should be installed and serviced by qualified security professionals who should instruct you on the level of protection that has been provided and on system operations. For important warnings and cautions, see page 32.

Introduction

Fire Detection

Te s ti n g

Remote Monitoring

Maintenance

This NT9005 controller is capable of monitoring fire detection devices such as smoke detectors and providing a warning if a fire condition is detected. Good fire detection depends on having an adequate number of detectors placed in appro­priate locations. The system must be installed in accordance with NFPA 72 (N.F.P.A., Batterymarch Park, Quincey MA 02269). Carefully review
Fire Safety
on
page 21.
NOTE: Your installer must enable the fire detection portion of this equip­ment for it to work.
To make sure your system continues to work as intended, you must test your sys­tem weekly. Please refer to
Testing your System
on page 18. If your system does
not work correctly, call your installer for service.
This system can send alarms, troubles and emergency messages over telephone lines to a central station. If you accidentally initiate an alarm, immediately call the central station to prevent an unnecessary response.
NOTE: Your installer must enable remote monitoring for it to work.
With normal use, the system requires minimum maintenance, but please note the following points:
1. Do not wash the security equipment with a wet cloth. Light dusting with a slightly moistened cloth should remove normal dust accumulations.
2. Use the system test described on page 18 to check the battery condition of the NT9005 controller. DSC recommends that the standby battery be replaced every three years.
3. Consult the manufacturer’s literature for testing and maintenance instructions for other system devices such as smoke detectors, motion detectors, and glass­break detectors. For instructions on replacing detector batteries, see
Batteries
on page 24
.
Replacing
NOTE: The NT9005 is only compatible with DSC wireless devices.

Section 3: Turning Your System On
(Arming) and Off (Disarming)
This section describes how to turn your system on and off. Read this section care­fully.

Tur nin g O n Your System

1. Before you turn on your system, make sure that it is Ready. You can tell that the
system is ready when the green (Ready) light is ON.
see the Note below
2. Enter your access code on the keypad. If you have entered the wrong code, the
keypad will sound one long beep - try again to enter the correct code. When you enter a valid access code:
• The keypad sounds fast beeps.
• The red (Armed) light turns ON.
• The keypad starts to beep once every second. This tells you that the system is turning on (Audible Exit Delay).
3.
If you will be leaving

If you will be staying
you are staying, and the system turns on only the perimeter areas.
NOTE: If the green (Ready) light is not ON:
• Close all doors and windows
• Stop motion in all areas with motion detectors
If the yellow (Trouble) light is ON, check for possible trouble conditions (see

Tur nin g O f f Your System

1. If you are outside, enter through the entry/exit door. The keypad beeps to remind you to turn off the system.
NOTE: Entering by any other door will immediately cause an alarm.
2. Enter your [access code]. If you have entered from outside, you must enter the correct access code before the keypad stops beeping. If you do not enter a valid access code during this time, the system will sound an alarm.
NOTE: If you have entered the wrong code the keypad will sound one long beep - try again to enter the correct code.
As soon as you enter the correct code, the red (Armed) light turns OFF and the keypad stops beeping.
3. If an alarm occurred while the system was ON, the NT9005 will display the Memory icon. See
Checking Alarms in Memory
on page 14.
CAUTION: If you return and find that an alarm has occurred while you were away, it is possible that an intruder may still be on the premises. Go to a nearby safe location, and call your central station or the local authorities to investigate. The alarm memory is cleared each time the system is turned on, so any alarms showing have occurred while you were away.

Other Ways to Tur n You r System On

There are two basic methods for turning on your security system.
: Use this method when everyone will be away from the premises. See
Away
page 9.
: Use this method when one or more people will stay on the premises. See
Stay
page 10.
You can also use any of the following methods to turn on your system (see pages 10 to 11):
Quick Arming:
Turn on your system without having to enter an access code.
Your installer must turn on this feature before it will work.
No Entry Arming:
Turn on your system with no entry delay time - use this
method when no one else will be entering the premises.
Automatic Arming:
The system will turn itself on at pre-set times.
Your
installer must turn on this feature before it will work.
8
Turning Your System On (Arming) and Off (Disarming)

Tur nin g O n Your System When Everyone is Away (Away Mode)

When you turn on your system using the Away method, both interior zones (e.g., motion detectors) and perimeter zones (e.g., door and window contacts) will be active and will cause an alarm if they are opened.
1. Check that your system is ready (green Ready light is ON).
2. Enter your [access code]. As you enter each digit, the keypad sounder beeps. If you entered the access code incorrectly, the keypad sounder buzzes steadily for two seconds. Re-enter your access code correctly.
When you enter a valid access code:
• The keypad sounds 6 fast beeps.
• The red (Armed) light turns ON.
• The exit delay time begins and the keypad beeps once every second. The keypad beeps quickly (twice per second) for the last 10 seconds of the exit delay time.
3. Exit the premises through the entry/exit door. Doing this tells the system that you are away, and the system turns on all the interior zones.
At the end of the exit delay time, all keypad lights, except the red (Armed) light, turn OFF. The system is now ON.
NOTE: If the Bypass icon is ON, there could be one or more zones not turned on. See Turning Off Part of Your System (Bypassing Zones) on page
15. If you turn on the system with a zone bypassed or a trouble present,
your security protection is reduced.
Away Button
You may also be able to turn on your system in Away mode using the
Away
button on your keypad. Press and hold it for two seconds to turn ON the system in Away mode.
Your installer will tell you if this feature has been enabled on your system.

What to Do if the Siren Sounds Immediately After You Exit

In order to reduce false alarms, the system can notify you of an improper exit when turning on the system in the Away mode. If you do not securely close the entry/exit door during the exit time, the keypad will emit one continuous beep and the siren will sound.
If this occurs:
1. Re-enter the premises.
2. Enter your [access code] to turn off the system. You must do this before the entry time ends.
3. Turn the system on again, making sure to close the entry/exit door properly. (See
Turning On Your System When Everyone is Away (Away Mode)
.)
9

Tur nin g O n Your System While You Are At Home (Stay Mode)

Use the Stay mode when you want to stay at home, and also want to prevent unauthorized entry from outside. The system will only turn on the perimeter zones (e.g., door and window contacts), and will leave the interior zones off (e.g., motion detectors) so that you will be free to move around inside.
1. Check that your system is ready (green Ready light is ON)
2. Enter your [access code]. As you enter each digit, the keypad sounder beeps. If you entered the access code incorrectly, the keypad sounder will buzz steadily for two seconds. Re-enter your access code correctly.
When you enter a valid access code:
• The keypad sounds 6 fast beeps.
• The red (Armed) light turns ON.
• The Bypass message is displayed.
• The exit delay time begins and the keypad beeps once every second. The keypad will beep twice per second for the last 10 seconds of the exit delay time.
3. DO NOT leave through the entry/exit door. This tells the system that you are not leaving, and the system automatically turns off the interior zones.
At the end of the exit delay time, all keypad lights, except the red (Armed) light, will turn OFF. The system is now on.
Re-activate bypassed zones
To turn on the rest of the system when it is in Stay mode:
*
1. Press or

Section 5: Using Advanced Functions

This section describes how to perform more specialized functions: turning off spe­cific detectors (bypassing zones), turning the door chime on or off, checking sys­tem troubles, and testing your system.

Tur nin g O f f Part of Your System (Bypassing Zones)

Sometimes, you may need to temporarily turn off one or more detectors (e.g., if you need to go into a protected area while the system is turned on or if a detector is temporarily out of service but you need to turn on the system).
This is called “bypassing”. When you bypass a detector, it next time you turn on your system.
Detectors (zones) cannot be bypassed once the system is on. Bypasses on detec­tors are automatically cancelled each time the system is turned off. You must bypass the detectors again, if required, before you turn the system on again.
Bypassing a Zone

To find out the number of a detector, check in
TIP:
4. To turn a detector back on, enter the two-digit number of the zone (01-32). The system will return the zone to normal status and the zone will be ON when the system is next armed.
The system will then scroll all bypassed zones.
5. When you are finished turning off detectors, press .
6. The next time you turn on your system, the bypassed detectors on. When you turn your system off again, all zones will return to normal (they will not be bypassed).
Bypassing a Group of Zones
Two groups of pre-programmed zones can be stored for future use. 1 Bypass all zones you wish to group as described above. 2 Enter 95 to store the zones in group 1 or 96 to store them in group 2. 3 To recall group 1 press 91; to activate group 2 press 92
NOTE: Bypassed detectors will not be able to sound an alarm - this reduces your level of security. If a detector is not working, call a service technician immediately so that the problem can be resolved and your system returned to proper working order.

Section 7: Fire Safety

Read this section carefully. It contains important information about fire safety.

Household Fire Safety Audit

Fire Escape Planning

Most fires occur in the home. To minimize this danger, we recommend that a household fire safety audit be done and a fire escape plan be created.
1. Are all electrical appliances and outlets in a safe condition? Check for frayed cords, overloaded lighting circuits, etc. If you are uncertain about the condition of your electrical appliances or household service, have a professional evaluate these units.
2. Are all flammable liquids stored safely in closed containers in a well-ventilated, cool area? Cleaning with flammable liquids should be avoided.
3. Are fire-hazardous materials (e.g., matches) well out of reach of children?
4. Are furnaces and wood burning appliances properly installed, clean and in good working order? Have a professional evaluate these appliances.
There is often very little time between the detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly. Therefore it is very important to develop and rehearse a family escape plan.
1. Every family member should participate in developing the escape plan.
2. Study the possible escape routes from each location within the house. Since many fires occur at night, special attention should be given to the escape routes from sleeping quarters.
3. Escape from a bedroom must be possible without opening the interior door.
Consider the following when making your escape plans:
• Make sure that all exterior doors and windows are easily opened. Ensure that they are not painted shut, and that their locking mechanisms operate smoothly.
• If opening or using the exit is too difficult for children, the elderly, or the handi­capped, plans for rescue should be developed. This includes making sure that those who are to perform the rescue can promptly hear the fire warning signal.
• If the exit is above the ground level, an approved fire ladder or rope should be provided as well as training in its use.
• Exits on the ground level should be kept clear. Be sure to remove snow from exterior patio doors in winter. Outdoor furniture or equipment should not block exits.
• Each person should know of a predetermined assembly point where everyone can be accounted for (e.g., across the street or at a neighbor’s house). Once everyone is out of the building, call the Fire Department.
21
• A good plan emphasizes a quick escape. Do not investigate or attempt to fight the fire, and do not gather belongings or pets as this wastes valuable time. Once outside, do not re-enter the house. Wait for the fire department.
• Write the fire escape plan down and rehearse it frequently so that should an emergency arise, everyone will know what to do. Revise the plan as conditions change, such as the number of people in the home, or if there are changes to the building’s construction.
• Make sure your fire warning system is operational by conducting weekly tests (see
Checking Trouble Conditions
on Page 16). If you are unsure about sys-
tem operation, contact your installing dealer.
• We recommend that you contact your local fire department and request further information on fire safety and escape planning. If available, have your local fire prevention officer conduct an in-house fire safety inspection.
22
Section 8: Guidelines for
Locating Smoke Detectors
Research has shown that all hostile fires in homes gen­erate smoke to a greater or lesser extent. Experiments with typical fires in homes indicate that detectable quantities of smoke precede detectable levels of heat in most cases. For these reasons, smoke alarms should be installed outside of each sleeping area and on each sto­rey of the home.
The following information is for general guidance only and it is recommended that local fire codes and regula­tions be consulted when locating and installing smoke alarms.
It is recommended that additional smoke alarms beyond those required for minimum protection be installed. Additional areas that should be protected include: the basement; bedrooms, especially where smokers sleep; dining rooms; furnace and utility rooms; and any hall­ways not protected by the required units.
On smooth ceilings, detectors may be spaced 9.1m (30 feet) apart as a guide. Other spacing may be required depending on ceiling height, air movement, the pres­ence of joists, uninsulated ceilings, etc. Consult National Fire Alarm Code NFPA 72, CAN/ULC-S553-M86 or other appropriate national standards for installation recom­mendations.
Do not locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or gabled ceilings; the dead air space in these locations may prevent the unit from detecting smoke.
Avoid areas with turbulent air flow, such as near doors, fans or windows. Rapid air movement around the detector may prevent smoke from entering the unit.
Do not locate detectors in areas of high humidity. Do not locate detectors in areas where the temperature rises above 38 Smoke detectors should always be installed in accor-
dance with NFPA 72, the National Fire Alarm Code. Smoke detectors should always be located in accor­dance with:
• Paragraph 2-2.1.1.1 of NFPA 72, Chapter 2: ‘
detectors shall be installed outside of each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bed­rooms and on each additional storey of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics. In new construction, a smoke detector also shall be installed in each sleep­ing room’.
• Paragraph 2-2.1.1.2 of NFPA 72, Chapter 2: ’Split level arrangement: Smoke detectors are required where shown. Smoke detectors are optional where a door is not provided between living room and recreation room’.

Section 9: Replacing Batteries

F
rom time to time, the batteries in the detectors and other components of your system will need to be changed. If a device has a low battery, your system will display a trouble mes­sage (see
When the batteries in one device need to be replaced, it is suggested that the batteries in all system devices be replaced at the same time. The batteries used in the devices are Eveready Alkaline Energizer or Energizer Lithium batteries.
NOTE:
tral station.
Checking Trouble Conditions
Before changing the batteries in the detectors, you should inform your cen-
on page 16
).

Tips for Buying Batteries

• Your system is designed to work with either Eveready Alkaline Energizer or Lithium bat-
teries according to the individual device. When replacing batteries, be sure to buy the same brand and type. Do not replace the batteries with any other type. The reliability of your security system depends on its batteries, and “no name” or generic brand batteries may not provide the best quality and dependability.
• Use fresh batteries. Most batteries have a “best before” date printed on their packaging
or on the batteries themselves. Buy batteries that have a “best before” date of two years or more from your purchase date.
• When disposing of used batteries, follow the instructions and precautions printed on
the batteries. Many cities and communities have collection sites or disposal services. Contact your municipal offices for more information.
• If in doubt about the batteries used in your system, or if you have trouble installing
them, contact your installer for assistance.

WARNING Please Read Carefully

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital inf ormation. As t he only individual in contact w ith sys­tem users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warn ing to the attention of the users of this system.

System Failures

This system has been car efully desi gned to be as effective as p ossible. There are circumstances , however, involving fire, burglary, or other types of emergenci es where it may not provi de protect ion. Any al arm system of any ty pe may be com­promised deliberately or may fa il to operate as expected for a variety of reasons . Some but not all of these reasons m ay be:
Inadequate Installation
A security system must be installed properly in or der to provide adequate pr otec­tion. Every inst allation sho uld be evaluated by a security pro fessional to ensure that all access points and areas a re covered. Locks and latches on windows and doo rs must be secure and opera te as intended. Windows, door s, walls, ceilings and other building materia ls must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected. A reevaluation must be done during and after any con­struction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police depa rtment is highly rec­ommended if this service is available.
Criminal Knowledge
This system contains security feat ures which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is impo rtant that a security sys­tem be reviewed periodically to ensure that its fea tures remai n effective and th at it be updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected.
Access by Intruders
Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by moving through an area of insufficient coverage, dis con­nect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the sys­tem.
Power Failure
controllers, intrusion detectors, sm oke detector s and many o ther securi ty devices require an adequate power supply for pr oper operation. If a device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batterie s have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition and installed co rrectly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interrupt ion, however brief, will render that device inopera­tive while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any leng th are often accompanied by voltage fluctuatio ns which may damage electronic equipment su ch as a security system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensur e that the system operates a s intended.
Failure of Replaceable Batteries
This system’s wireless transmitters have bee n designed to provide several years of battery life under normal con ditions. The exp ected battery life is a func tion of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. W hile each transmittin g device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the ba tteries need to be repla ced, this mo nitor may fail to operate as expect ed. Regular testing and maint enance will keep the system in good operating condition.
Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices
Signals may not reach the receiver under all circums tances whic h could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate j amming or ot her inad­vertent radio signal interference.
System Users
A user may not be able to operate a pan ic or emergency switch possibly due to per­manent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm syst em and that they know how to respond when the system indic ates an alarm .
Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly ale rt occupants of a fire for a number of reasons, so me of which follow. The sm oke detector s may have been improperly installed or positioned. Smoke m ay not be able to reach the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is in a ch imney, walls or roofs, o r on the other side of closed doors . Smoke detectors may not de tect smoke from fires on another level of the residenc e or building.
Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide t imely warning of fires cause d by carelessness or sa fety hazards such as smoking in bed, viol ent explosions, es caping gas, impro per storage of flammable materials, overloaded electric al circuits, children playi ng with matches or arson.
Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.
Motion Detectors
Motion detectors can only detect mo tion within the designated area s as shown in their respective installation instr uctions. They ca nnot discriminate between intrud­ers and intended occupants. Motion detectors do not pr ovide volumetric area pro­tection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by these beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceil ings, floor, closed doors, glass partit ions, glass doors or windows. Any typ e of tampering whether intentional or uni ntentional such as masking, paintin g, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, win dows or any other part of the detection system will impair its proper operation.
Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. How­ever their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambi ent temperature rises near or above body temperature or if the re are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detect ion area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting and so on.
Warning Devices
Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone s leeping if t here is an intervening wall or door. If warning devices are located on a differ ent level of the resid ence or premise, th en it is less likely that the occupants will be a lerted or awakened. Audibl e warning devices may be inter­fered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air condition­ers or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible warning d evices, however loud, may not be hea rd by a heari ng-impaired person.
Telephone Lines
If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeat its operation by more sophisticate d means which may be difficult to detect.
Insufficient Time
There may be circu mstances when the system will operate as intend ed, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergen cy due to their inabil ity to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monit ored, the resp onse may not occur in time to protect the occupants or their belongi ngs.
Component Failure
Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as poss ible, the system may fail to function as in tended due to the failure of a component.
Inadequate Testing
Most problem s that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intend ed can be found by r egul ar testing and mainten ance. The complete system should be tested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an atte mpted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The test ing should include all sensing devic es, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devic es and any oth er operatio nal devices that are part of the syste m.
Security and Insurance
Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize t he harmful effects of an emergency situation.
