Introduction
About the Alarm System
Your intruder alarm system uses state-of-
the art electronics to provide comprehensive
and flexible protection for domestic or
commercial premises. The system
comprises several components, such as
keypads and sensors, linked to a control
unit.
This guide describes how to set, unset and
reset your alarm system.
To ensure problem-free operation, discuss
the system with your alarm company or
system manager before operating it.
User Codes and
Proximity Tags
Before you can set, unset or reset the alarm
system, you must enter your unique user
code or present your proximity tag (if used)
to the keypad. The user code may be 4 or 6
digits, depending on how your system is set
up

About Zones and Partitions
Zones
Your alarm system has a number of
“zones”. Each zone is a detection
device, such as a movement sensor or
magnetic contact, that is monitored by
your alarm system. Each zone has a
unique 4-digit number and an optional
description of up to 16 characters to
identify it.
Your alarm company has configured
each zone to respond in a certain way
when it is activated, depending
whether the system is set or unset. For
example, a zone that uses a Passive
Infra-Red (PIR) detector may cause a
full alarm when triggered when the
alarm system is set.

Zones are grouped into partitions,
which can be set and unset
independently. Each partition can
consist of one or more zones.
Users may be given access to all
partitions or to selected partitions. You
can set and unset only the partitions to
which you have access.

About the Keypads
You can operate your alarm system from
one or more keypads located around the
premises.
Keypad
The keypad can be used
to set and unset the
alarm system, and also to
program and test it. The
information shown on the
display is referred to
throughout this guide.
The keypad may include
a proximity tag reader.

Communication Devices
Your alarm system may be fitted with a
communication device to signal alarms and
other events to the police via an Alarm
Receiving Centre (ARC).
Remote Signalling
If your system has a communication device,
it is important that you fully understand how
to operate the alarm system to avoid false
alarms. Too many false alarms may result
in the police refusing to respond to your
alarm system.
Downloading
A personal computer (PC) can be linked to
your alarm system through a telephone line.
This enables the system to be programmed
and tested remotely.
This feature is known as downloading and
is normally performed with your
authorisation by either your alarm company
or your ARC.
