Fire Safety

Residential fire is a leading cause of accidental death. Most fire related deaths occur at night when the occupants suffocate in their sleep from smoke and deadly gases, rather than from burns. To help reduce this risk, implement the following three-step program:

1.Minimize fire hazards around the home. Smoking in bed, cleaning with flammable liquids such as gasoline, leaving children home alone, and unsafe holiday decorations are some of the more common causes of household fire.

2.Install a fire warning system. The primary purpose of this system is to protect lives, not property, by giving the earliest possible warning of the danger. In the event of a fire, the alarm system generates a loud intermittent tone distinctly different than a burglar alarm.

In homes with more than one sleeping area a smoke detector (indicated by an inverted “s” in a circle) should be provided to detect smoke in each area.

3.Plan and practice an escape plan. A fire alarm warning is wasted unless the family has planned for a quick evacuation. Because there is very little time between detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly, it is important that every member of the family

understand exactly what to do.

Possible escape routes through open windows marked with arrows.

Primary and alternate escape routes should be established. Since stairwells and hallways can be blocked during a fire, exiting through a bedroom window at night should be an essential part of the escape plan. If the sleeping area is above the ground floor, provide a means of safe descent outside the building if one does not already exist.

All family members should plan to meet at a predetermined location away from the house (such as a neighbor’s), to verify that all are accounted for.

In Case of Fire

1.The primary purpose of a fire warning system is to protect lives. In the event of a fire alarm, quickly leave the building and call the fire department from a neighbor’s or public telephone.

2.If it is determined the alarm was accidentally tripped, the bell should be silenced, the detectors reset, and your alarm company notified immediately of the situation.

Introduction

Your security system helps to secure life, property, and investments against fire, theft, and bodily harm. The keypad is an arming station that offers a variety of features. Function, versatility, and ease of operation make the keypad the ideal system for the home or office.

With custom programming, the keypad is tailored to meet your individual needs. The Command mode allows you to perform a variety of functions with maximum simplicity - only the touch of two or three keys is required to control almost every feature on the keypad. Three function keys allow common commands to be performed with the touch of just one key.

The keypad puts the control of your security system right at your fingertips.

Maintenance and Service

The keypad requires very little maintenance; however, the system should be tested weekly to detect service needs early. A test schedule and maintenance program is arranged with your alarm company. If a change in operation is noticed during normal use or testing, call for service as soon as possible. Do not attempt to repair the control panel, arming stations, or detectors yourself.

AC Power Failure

If your keypad indicates AC power has failed, and you have power in the remainder of your premises, there could be a problem with the electrical transformer or circuit breaker supplying power to your security control panel. First, check to be sure the transformer is securely plugged into the electrical outlet. If it appears to be damaged in any way, do not attempt to repair it. Call your security company for service.

Transformer location: _________________________________________

If the transformer is plugged in, check the circuit breaker supplying power to the outlet. If the breaker is tripped, reset it. If it trips again, the overload condition must be corrected.

The D720 Series Keypad

The keypad is an illuminated digital arming station that is the keypad for your entire security system. The keypad does much more than just arm and disarm your security system; it can initiate several system commands. A system status display panel keeps you informed of security conditions, as well as storing alarm information for future reference. It also indicates various security system conditions such as your system’s armed status, protective point status, power supply status, and Command mode status. A built-in sounder alerts you of several different conditions, which requires action. The keypad also includes three function keys that perform many system commands with the touch of one key.

Security System Basics

What is a Point?

A point is a detection device, or group of devices connected to your security system. Each area of your property is assigned to a specific point with a number. A point is a single door (like the entrance door) or an area of your property (like the second floor). Each point is represented by its point number on the keypad display panel. There are two basic types of points: Controlled and 24-hour.

Controlled Points

Controlled points respond to alarm conditions depending upon whether the system is turned on (armed) or turned off (disarmed). Controlled points are programmed to respond instantly to alarm conditions or provide a delay for you to reach the keypad and disarm the system. There are two types of controlled points: Perimeter and Interior.

1.Perimeter Points: All exterior doors and windows of the building, forming the outside “wall of protection” around your building.

2.Interior Points: All interior forms of burglary protection such as carpet mats, motion sensors, inside doors, etc..

24-Hour Points

24-hour points are always on, even when the burglary system is disarmed (turned off). There are two types of 24-hour points: Fire and Non-Fire.

1.Fire Points: Exclusively monitor fire detection devices. They are always armed and cannot be disarmed. Fire alarms have a unique audible warning signal.

2.Non-Fire Points: Always armed and cannot be disarmed.

Keypad Features

Armed Status Indicators

Three lights indicate the armed status of your security system. Each is explained below. During an exit delay period, these lights flash on and off slowly.

Perimeter--When this red indicator is lit, your perimeter points are armed. When this indicator is not lit, your system is not armed.

Interior -- When this yellow indicator is lit, your interior points are armed. When this indicator is not lit, your interior points are not armed.

Instant-- This red indicator shows how your system is armed; either instant or delayed. When this indicator is lit, your security system is armed without entry/exit delay time. When the system is armed with entry/exit delay, this indicator is not lit.

Point Status Indicators

Point status indicators on the keypad show the condition of your system’s protective points. Each point has its own indicator that shows three different point conditions (listed in order of priority).

Point Bypass -- When a point is bypassed (not armed with the rest of the system), its indicator light flashes on and off slowly.

Faulted Point -- A faulted point is indicated by a steadily lit point status indicator.

Point Alarm Memory -- When a point is faulted into alarm, its indicator flashes on and off rapidly.

The Point Status Indicators also show whether the system is ready to arm or not. If the point status indicators are not lit, the system is armed by entering your personal passcode or any of the arming commands available to your system. If any of the point status indicators are lit, the system has a faulted point. Correcting the faulted point usually means closing a door or window.

Power Indicator

When the red PWR indicator LED lights steadily, your security system is operating from AC voltage and the standby battery is fully charged. When the PWR indicator is off, AC or battery power is not present. When flashing slowly, a low battery power condition is indicated. When flashing quickly, battery power is missing. If the indicator is off or continues to flash, contact your security company.

Command Mode Indicator

When the [COMMAND] bar is pressed, the red Command mode indicator (CMD) lights steadily to show the system is ready to accept a command. If the command requires that a passcode be entered, the CMD indicator slowly blinks, prompting you to enter your passcode. Once a passcode is entered, the Command mode indicator lights steadily again and remains steadily lit while the system is in the command mode. The indicator goes off when the command is completed (or after 15 seconds of inactivity).

Note:	If all of the keypad’s LEDs are blinking in unison, the system requires
	service.

Exiting the Command Mode

If you decide to exit the Command mode before completing the chosen function, you can exit the command mode at any time by pressing the [A] key. The CMD light goes off, confirming that you have left the command mode.

The Keypad

The keypad has a lighted digital keypad used to enter passcodes and system commands into the security system. As you touch the keys to enter a passcode, the keypad emits a short beep tone to indicate that your entry is accepted.

COMMAND Bar

The [COMMAND] bar is used to perform oneor two-digit COMMAND functions.

Note:	Some systems require a security passcode to be entered after the function keys
	or [COMMAND] bar are pressed. If a passcode is required, the CMD light
	blinks. Enter your passcode when you see this light blinking.

Enter (ENT) Key

When the passcode is completed, press the [ENT] key to activate the passcode. If you do not press the [ENT] key, the passcode is ignored by the security system.

When entering a passcode or command at the keypad, each key must be pressed within 5 seconds of the last key entry. After 5 seconds have expired from the last key entry, the entire entry is cleared and the passcode must be started over.

Function Keys

The keypad has three function keys (labeled A, B, and C). The function keys are used to perform system commands with the touch of one key. Your alarm technician programs the Function Keys.

Function Key		Function Performed
	[A]	______________________________
		______________________________
	[B]	______________________________
		______________________________
	[C]	______________________________
		______________________________
Note:	The [A], [B], and [C] keys can perform various functions. These functions
	require a few seconds before they are completed, because the system is
	completing several instructions at once. Therefore, please wait for 5 seconds
	after using the [A], [B], or [C] keys to allow the system to “catch up.”

Turning the System On (Arming)

Your security system is turned on (armed) in many different ways, depending on the arming command used. Arming commands turn the system on. The most basic arming command is to arm the entire system. The simplest way to arm your system is to enter your personal passcode and press [ENT] or to use COMMAND 1.

There are several other arming commands to turn the system on. For example: arm only the perimeter or arm only portions of the perimeter. These arming functions and their respective commands are described later in this guide.

Turning the System Off (Disarming)

Your security system is turned off by entering your personal passcode and pressing [ENT]. When your system is turned on, you must enter the premises through a designated entry door to prevent an immediate instant alarm condition. Open the door starts an entry delay time and the keypad emits a pulsing beep tone to remind you to turn the system off. Enter your personal passcode and press [ENT] before the delay time expires and the system turns off.

If you enter through a wrong door or fail to disarm before the entry delay expires, causes an alarm. If this happens, silence the alarm (by entering your personal passcode and pressing [ENT]) and call your security company to notify them it is not an emergency situation.

Silencing an Alarm

The audible alarm sounds for a specific period of time before it automatically shuts off. If an alarm occurs and you want to silence the bell or siren before the time expires, simply enter your personal passcode and press [ENT].

After silencing the alarm and returning points to normal, you can clear the alarm memory lights by entering your passcode twice (arm and disarm). On some systems the alarm memory lights are cleared by entering COMMAND 4.

To Silence an alarm:

Enter your personal passcode and press [ENT].

Note:	Some security systems are programmed so bells or sirens cannot be silenced
	until the point is restored to a normal (non-alarm) condition.

Reporting to the Central Station

My system reports to a Central Station.

My system does not report to a Central Station.

Your system is programmed to send a closing report to your security company when arming.

My system sends a Closing Report.

My system does not send a Closing Report.

Your system is programmed to send an Opening Report to your security company when disarming.

My system sends an Opening Report.

My system does not send an Opening Report.

Your system is programmed to report Force Arming to your security company.

Force Arming is reported to my security company.

Force Arming is not reported to my security company.

Your security system automatically disconnects your telephone from its line when transmitting reports to your security company. This prevents reports from being interrupted during transmission. Once the report is completed, the telephone line is restored to normal service.

Note:	If damage occurs to the telephone line and your telephone service is
	interrupted, reports are not transmitted to your security company unless an
	alternate means of transmitting signals is installed in your system.

Keypad Tones

Your keypad emits one of several distinct tones to alert you to system events. Additional bells or sirens can also be connected to your system. Bells or sirens mounted on the exterior of your premises alert neighbors to emergencies and provide an audible guide for police and fire fighters. Some of these tones are optional, and are selected by your alarm technician.

	1.	Fire Alarms: Fire alarms are the highest priority events. When a
		fire point activates, your keypad emits a fast, pulsating,
		high-pitched tone. Evacuate all occupants and investigate for smoke
		or fire. Ensure all occupants know the difference between the
		burglary tone and the fire tone. The tone sounds for the time set by
		your security company. The keypad point status LEDs show the
		fire points in alarm.
Note:	Some points, such as fire points, are programmed so the sounder cannot be
	silenced until the point fault is corrected.
	2.	Burglary Alarms: Burglary alarms are the second priority. When a
		burglary point activates while your system is armed, your keypad
		emits a pulsating burglary tone. The tone sounds for the time set
		by your security company. The keypad point status LEDs show
		the burglary points in alarm.
	3.	System Trouble Events: When a system component is not
		functioning properly, your keypad is programmed to repeatedly
		emit three warble tones, then a pause. If the problem is with a
		point, the point status light indicates which point is faulted. To
		silence the system trouble tone, enter COMMAND 4 or your
		personal passcode followed by [ENT].
	4.	Entry Delay Tone: When you enter the premises through a point
		programmed for entry delay, the keypad emits a repeating tweedle
		tone to remind you to turn off your system.

Exit Delay Tone: After you arm your system, the keypad emits a repeating beep tone and counts down the exit delay time. If you don’t exit before the delay time expires, and an exit delay door is faulted, entry delay begins.

5.Keystroke Checking Tones: Pressing any key on the keypad sounds a short beep tone. When you press an incorrect key, a flat buzz tone sounds to indicate an invalid entry.

6.Faulted Point: When you enter an arming command, and a point is faulted, the sounder is activated for 2 seconds. The point status indicator associated with the faulted point is lit.

7.Watch Tone: When the Watch Mode is activated, the keypad emits a brief tone to alert you when any watch point is faulted and the point indicator lights to indicate which point is faulted. The tone sounds only when the door or window is opened. It does not sound again for that point until the door or window is closed and then reopened.

Some system trouble events produce a trouble tone without producing any status light indications. These trouble events fall into three categories:

1.Hardware, software, or wiring problems. For example: a keypad was unplugged from the control panel or the printer was unplugged. Call your security company.

2.Communication or phone failure. For example: you have phone line trouble. Call your security company.

3.Late to close reminder tone. If your system is programmed to send a Closing Report, your keypad sounds the trouble tone to remind you that it is time to close. Arm your system to silence the tone.

Turn the Entire System On With Delays

I have this feature.

I do not have this feature.

This feature requires a passcode.

Command 1 is used to arm the entire system, both perimeter and interior points. Once you enter Command1, the exit delay time starts. You now have a predetermined amount of time to exit the protected area before the system arms. During the exit period, you can move through motion detectors or any protected area on your way to any exit without causing an alarm. To cancel Command 1, enter your personal passcode and press [ENT].

Note:	If you leave the building after the exit time expires, you can begin the entry
	delay or initiate an alarm. It this happens, disarm your system by entering
	your personal passcode and press [ENT]. It your system reports to a central
	station, call them if an alarm occurs.

Application

Command1 is useful in applications where you want your cleaning or service personnel, or anyone else to arm your system when they leave, but you do not want them to have the passcode to disarm the system. Command 1 arms the system, but does not disarm the system.

COMMAND 1

Arming with COMMAND 1:

1.Ensure all points are secure. All of the Point Status indicator lights on the Keypad should be off. If not, refer to Force Arming the System on page 29.

2.Press the [COMMAND] bar. The Command mode indicator light comes on.

3.Press the [1] key. The PERIMETER indicator and the INTERIOR indicator lights begin to flash on and off, showing the system has begun exit delay time.

4.To disarm your security system or cancel COMMAND 1, enter your personal passcode and press [ENT] before the delay time expires.
