THIS MANUAL IS FURNISHED TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
AND BECOME PROFICIENT IN ITS OPERATION. ALL USERS OF YOUR SECURITY
SYSTEM SHOULD READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS IN
THIS BOOKLET. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN THE SECURITY SYSTEM NOT
WORKING PROPERLY. THIS BOOKLET SHOULD BE KEPT IN AN ACCESSIBLE
LOCATION FOR THE LIFE OF THE SECURITY SYSTEM. IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND
ANY PART OF THIS MANUAL YOU SHOULD NOTIFY YOUR INSTALLING COMPANY AND
ASK FOR THAT SECTION OF THE MANUAL TO BE EXPLAINED FULLY.
The SECURITY CONTROL CENTER is turned on (ARMED) and off (DISARMED) by entering
a 4 digit code into the Keypad Control, which is similar to a telephone keypad. The Keypad
Control includes 22 lights and a built in electronic sounder. These provide specific information
relating to the status of the security system which is described in this booklet. Understanding
what the lights and sounds mean will help you easily operate your system.
SO REMEMBER, READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL AND, IF POSSIBLE, PRACTICE ON THE
KEYPAD CONTROL WHILE YOUR PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER IS AT YOUR BUILDING.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ASK YOUR INSTALLING COMPANY.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE LEVEL OF SECURITY YOU WILL OBTAIN WITH THIS
SYSTEM RELATES SPECIFICALLY WITH TWO MAJOR FACTORS:
1.
The quantity, quality, and placement of security devices attached to this system.
2.
The knowledge you have of the security system and how that knowledge is utilized in a
weekly test of the complete system.
YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING FACTS WHEN PREPARING A
SAFETY/SECURITY PLAN FOR YOUR HOME/BUSINESS.
1.
Your security system is an electronic device and is subject to failure or malfunction. Do
not rely on it as your single source of security.
2.
Your system should be tested weekly.
3.
Your system will not work without power.
4.
Warning devices will need to be loud enough, wired correctly, and properly placed to

HOW TO ARM YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
To turn the security system on, close all of the protected doors and windows. The green
“READY” light on the keypad control will illuminate when all of the protected areas and sensors
are secure. If any of the zones are bypassed, a sensor in that zone can be violated without
affecting the “READY” light. The security system will not arm if the “READY” light is not
illuminated. With the “READY” light on, you may arm the security system with your master
code or one of the auxiliary codes.
Each time a key is pressed on the keypad control, a short tone (beep) will sound. If the keypad
beeps three times after the code entry or if it does not arm, it is an indication that the code has
not been accepted. Press the key to reset and re-enter a valid code. If the keypad control
beeps continuously after code entry, it is an indication that the “POWER” light is off, the “FIRE”
and/or “TROUBLE” light is on, or a phone line fault (problem) has been detected. The keypad
sounder can be silenced by re-entering your four-digit code.
should restore power to the system if possible. If the “FIRE” and/or “TROUBLE” light is on,
you should press the
above conditions, you should contact the installing company listed on page 1 of this booklet
for service. When the security system has accepted a valid code, the red “ARMED” light will
illuminate indicating that the system has been turned on. If you choose to leave the protected
area, you must exit through a designated exit door within the exit delay time noted on page 1.
If you choose to stay within the protected area, insure that all interior zones that may be tripped
by your movement are bypassed.

HOW TO DISARM YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
When you enter the protected area through one of the designated entry/exit doors, the keypad
control will sound a continuous tone (beep) for the duration of the entry delay time, or until you
enter a valid code, After a valid code has been entered, the red “ARMED” light
the tone will stop. The security system is now DISARMED. If a valid code is n
the end of the entry delay time, an alarm will occur. (NOTE: IF THE RED “ARMED” LIGHT IS

RESETTING YOUR SECURITY CONTROL CENTER
In the event of a system malfunction in the Security Control Center, press the [#] (reset) key
on the keypad control. This should reset the code sequence and restore normal operation. If
the problem persists, call the service number located on page 1 of this booklet for service.
ALARM MEMORY
To obtain the last alarm information, press and wait 5 seconds. All zones violated
during last alarm will flash. All zones that bypassed during the last alarm will be a steady light.
QUICK-ARM FEA TURE
If checked, your security system has a “QUICK ARM” code programmed. This feature will
allow you to arm the security system by pressing one, pre-designated key on the keypad
control. This “QUICK ARM” code is for ARMING ONLY, and will not disarm the security
system. This makes it ideal for a maid code, babysitter code, etc. This code can only be
programmed and/or changed by your installing company.
AUTOMATIC BYPASS OPTION
If checked, your installing company has selected the “AUTOMATIC BYPASS” option. With this
feature enabled, all interior zones will automatically bypass if you “ARM” your security system
and do not leave through a designated entry/exit door. The “AUTOMATIC BYPASS” will occur
at the end of the exit delay time. At this time, all bypassed “ZONE” lights will become
illuminated. With the interior zones bypassed, occupants are allowed the freedom of
movement inside of the Home/Business white the security system is “ARMED”.

If checked, your installing company has selected the “INSTANT” option. With this feature
enabled, if you do not wish to have a delay on your entry/exit doors, this can be accomplished
by pressing the key on your keypad while the system is “ARMED”. At this time, the
“INSTANT” light will illuminate and there will be no entry delay when the entry/exit doors are
opened. Any time the “INSTANT” light is on and the exit delay has expired, the opening of an
entry/exit door will produce an immediate alarm, making this feature ideal when a high level
of security is desired, and no authorized entries are anticipated. By pressing the key again.
the “INSTANT” light will turn off, and an entry delay will be present on designated entry/exit
doors.
NOTE: Your installing may have programmed the “INSTANT” option to occur in
conjunction with the “AUTOMATIC BYPASS” feature. In this case, the “INSTANT” light and the
bypassed “ZONE” lights will become illuminated at the end of the exit delay. If this occurs, you
still have the ability to turn the “INSTANT” feature off, and/or on by pressing the key.

ENTRY-GUARD OPTION
If checked, your installing company has selected the “ENTRY-GUARD” option. If you wish to
arm your system in a low security mode, you may do so by pressing the preset
GUARD” digit (see page 1 for the selected digit). Five seconds later, the security control will
bypass all non “ENTRY-GUARD” zones, and arm the system with all “Entry-Guard” zones
delayed. This mode of operation will allow you time to DISARM (turn off) the security system
in the event a zone is accidentally opened.
KEYPADACTIVATED PAN/C/HOLD-UPALARM
If checked, your installing company has selected this feature. If so, when the star and
pound keys are pressed at the same time for one second, a local audible alarm will sound.
If your system is connected to a monitoring center, an emergency report could be transmitted
to that center. These keys should only be pressed in an emergency situation requiring
immediate response by law enforcement personnel.
PLEASE NOTE: Some Panic/Hold-up alarrns are programmed to be silent at the protected site
while reporting an alarm to the monitoring center. Check with your installing company to
determine how your security system will respond to the Panic/Hold-up activation.

FIRE ZONE
If checked, your system has designated “FIRE” zones. When this option is selected, and
approved heat or smoke detectors are attached to the selected zones, a steady audible siren
can be initiated from the security system. You should familiarize yourself and your family or
staff with this sound and follow an evacuation plan if this “FIRE” warning sound is heard. (See
page 8 for assistance in formulating an evacuation plan). To silence the audible “FIRE” alarm,
enter a valid code. To reset the “FIRE” light and /or smoke detectors, press the Reset
button on the keypad. After 10 seconds, the “FIRE” light should extinguish, and the light on the
affected smoke detector should go out. If you are unable to reset the “FIRE” light or smoke
detector after all smoke has cleared, you should immediately call the service phone number
listed on page 1 of this booklet.
DURESS CODE
If checked, your security system has a “DURESS CODE” option. If so, this code may be
programmed to send a special message to the central monitoring station if you are forced to
arm or disarm your security system against your will. Check with your Installing/Servicing
company to see if this option has been enabled for your system.
TURNING ON THE CHIME FEATURE
If checked, your security system will operate in the “CHIME” mode, allowing the monitoring of
pre-designated zones while the security system is not armed. While in the “CHIME” mode, the
opening of any of these zones will produce a l-second beep from the keypad control. To use
this feature, press the “CHIME” digit (this digit has been selected by your
and is noted on page 1). Five seconds after pressing the “CHIME” digit, a beep will occur
indicating that this feature has been activated. Repeat this procedure to turn the “CHIME”
feature off.

If checked, your installing company has selected the MULTI-AREA option for your security
system. If so, it may be possible to ARM different areas of your building independently from
each other. The system may have up to 4 independent areas. To view another area from a
keypad, a special “Change Area Code” will be required. To change the current area being
viewed on the keypad control, press

TESTING YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
There are several tests you should perform on a periodic basis (at least once a week) to insure
that your Security System is functioning properly.
Enable “THE CHIME” feature and open all protected windows and doors. The
Keypad Control should sound (beep) for each device and the appropriate yellow
zone light should blink.
Walk into all areas protected by motion detection devices while someone observes
the Keypad Control. The appropriate yellow zone light should blink for each sensor
tested.
l
If your system has a “FIRE” zone, the Smoke or Heat detectors should be tested at
least monthly. If your Security System is monitored by a Central Monitoring Station,
always call beforehand to let them know that you are about to conduct a test of the
fire detection system. Always call after the test to ask for results and to put your fire
detection system back into service.
If the Siren/Bell test option has been selected by your installing company, you may
activate the siren/bell by pressing the one [I

EMERGENCY EVACUATION PLANS
An emergency evacuation plan should be established for an actual fire alarm condition. For
example, the following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association
and can be used as a guide in establishing an evacuation plan for your building.
Draw up a floor plan of your home.
Show windows, doors, stairs, and rooftops that can be
used for escape. Indicate each occupant’s escape routes. Always keep these routes free from
obstruction.
Determine two means of escape from each room.
One will be the normal exit from the
building. The other may be a window that opens easily. An escape ladder may have to be
located near the window if there is a long drop to the ground below. Set a meeting place
outdoors for a headcount of the building occupants.
Practice escape procedures.

shoulder against the door and open it cautiously. Be ready to slam the door if smoke or heat
rush in. Practice escaping to the outdoors and meeting in an assigned spot. Call the Fire
Department from a neighbor’s phone.
NOTE: After the installation of your Security System has been completed, notify your local Fire
and Police Departments to give them your name and address for their records.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in
all rooms. This equipment should be installed in accordance with the National Fire Protection
Association’s Standard 72 (Chapter 2). For additional information write the National Fire
