2.1 Auditory Feedback (Beep Tones)
When you enter information on your keypad, it will guide you with beep tones to communicate acceptance or rejection of your entries.
Confirmation Beep: When an operation (i.e. arming/disarming) is successfully entered or when the system switches to a new status/ menu, your keypad will emit intermittent beep tones (“
BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP”).
Half Beep: When a step of an operation is successfully entered on the keypad, it will emit short intermittent beep tones (“
BEEP-BEEP-BEEP”).
Rejection Beep: When reverting to a previous status, or when an operation is incorrectly entered, your keypad will emit a continuous beep (“
BEEEEEEEEP”).
2.2 Keypad Indicator Lights
For this keypad, the state of the “Status”, “AC”, and “Action” lights (see Figure 1 on page 2) represent a specific condition in your system.
2.2.1 Normal Mode
If no actions are being performed on your keypad, it will remain in Normal Mode. In Normal Mode the keypad will illuminate:
• The “AC” light if power is present.
• The numerical lights representing any open or tampered zones.
• The area lights if any areas are armed.
• The M
• The T
EM action light if any alarms have occurred.
RBL action light if any troubles are occurring.
Digiplex LED Keypad 3n
2.2.2 Confidential Mode
The installer can program your keypad not to display the status of your system by changing the keypad from Normal Mode to Confidential Mode.

3.0 Partitioned System
Your installer can set your keyp ad to re co gnize separate protected areas. A separated system is called a partitioned system, which can be useful in situations where shared securit y systems are more practica l. For example, a company that has bo th a n office and a warehouse area, can arm and disarm ea ch area separately while controlling access to each area. Therefore, o ne person m ay have access to only one area, whereas another perso n ma y have a ccess to all areas. Access to the areas is determined by the Use r Access Code.
3.1 Area Display
The Area S tatus Display enables you to see the status of the individual areas within a partitioned system (see section 3.0). Depending upon which system you have, your installer can partition the system into separate areas. Your keypad can be programmed to display up to four areas. These areas are indicated as area lights A1 to A4.

TAY action light if the area is Stay or Instant Armed. ORCE action light if the area is Force Armed. YP action light if zones are bypassed.
6 User Manual
4.0 Zones
Zones are protected spaces within an area, which are monitored by the alarm system. Zones can be protected by devices such as magnetic door contacts and motion detectors.
4.1 Zone Display
The numerical lights display the status of the individual zones within a partitioned system. Your keypad can display up to 48 zones which are displayed on numerical lights 1 to 48.
Digiplex LED Keypad 7n
5.0 Arming
When the system is armed, it will respond to any breach in the zones according to the way each zone is programmed. For example, if someone opens a window that is armed, the system can trigger an alarm and alert your security company.
5.1 Exit Delay Timer
Arming the system will start the Exit Delay Timer. This will provide enough time for you to exit the protected area before the system arms. The Status light will flash green while the time elapses. The timer can be assigned different time limits and the keypad can be programmed to beep while the time elapses on the timer.
5.2 Regular Arming
This method is used for everyday arming of the system. All zones within the protected area must be closed to arm the system. To check the status of the zones in each area, refer to Area Display on page 5.
How do I Regular Arm the system?

Use One-Touch keys (see section 5.6) or a keyswitch to arm the area (see section 5.7).
8 User Manual
5.3 Stay Armin g
Stay Arming will partially arm your system to permit you to remain in the protected area. For example, you can arm your doors and windows at home without arming the motion detectors so you will be protected while you sleep. Only User Access Codes with the Stay and Instant Arm option enabled can Stay Arm the system.
How do I Stay Arm?
1) Enter your [
ACCESS CODE].
2) Press the [STAY] key. If you have acce ss to more tha n one area, press the area ’s number, then press the [0] key. The STAY LED and the selected area LED will illuminate.
Use One-Touch keys (see section 5.6) or a keyswitch to arm the area (see section 5.7).
5.4 Instant Arming
This feature is similar to S tay Arming. Instant Arming will pa rtially arm your system to permit you to remain in the protected area, but all zones, including the entry/exit points, are changed to Instant Alarm Zones. Therefore, if any armed zone is breached, the alarm will instantly be triggered. Only User Access Codes with the Stay and Instant Arm option enabled will be able to Instant Arm.
Use One-Touch keys (see section 5.6) or a keyswitch (see section 5.7) to arm the area.

5.5 Force Arming
Force Arming allows you to arm your system when specific zones are open. Your installer can program certain zones to remain unarmed when you initiate Force Arming. Once the open zone is closed, however, the system will then arm it as well. Only User Access Codes with the Force Arm option enabled can Force Arm the system.
This feature is commonly used when a motion detector is protecting an area occupied by a keypad. During Force Arming, the motion detector will remain unarmed (will be ignored) until you exit the area that it protects. The system will then arm the motion detector.

5.8.2 No Movement Auto-Arming
Your system can send a report to the security company and/or arm the system if there is no activity in the area during a specified period of time. Speak to your installer about this feature.
5.9 Bypass Programming
The installer can program certain zones with the bypass option. This will enable you to program the system to bypass certain zones when you arm the protected area. When a zone is bypassed, it will be ignored the next time you arm the system. If for example, you are renovating part of a protected area you can bypass some of its zones. The system will keep the bypassed zone(s) in memory until the area is armed. Once the area is disarmed, the system will unbypass the zones.
To Bypass a Zone:
• Your installer must program the selected zone(s) to have the Bypass feature enabled.
• Program your User Access Code to include the Bypass option.
• Ensure that your User Access Code can access the zone’s area assignment.
Fire Zones cannot be bypassed.

5) Practice feeling the way out with eyes closed.
6) Remind everyone never to stand up during a fire, always crawl low under the smoke and keep mouths covered.
7) Instruct everyone never to return to a burning building for any reason.
8) Check smoke alarms regularly.

11.4 Minimizing Home Fire Hazards
How can you avoid the four most common causes of fires at home?
1) Never leave cooking food unattended. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure.
2) Stay alert when smoking. Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths. Smoke detectors and smolder-resistant bedding and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents.
3) Maintain your heating system. Heating is the second leading cause of residential fires. However, heating fires are a larger problem in single family homes than in apartments. Unlike apartments, the heating systems in single family homes are often not professionally maintained.
4) Since fires produce smoke and deadly gases that can overcome occupants while they sleep, smoke detectors should be installed outside each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements.
11.5 Burglar Alarm
If your armed system is breached, the burglar alarm devices specific to your system will be triggered. If your keypad is in Normal Mode:
• The Status light and area lights of the area in alarm may flash red.
• The keypad may beep.
• The M
• The bell or siren may be activated.
• The zones in alarm will be recorded in the Alarm Memory Display.
EM action light will illuminate.
In case of a burglar alarm, leave the premises and call your security company from a safe place.

This test requires two people. One person will watch the keypad while the other person walks around and opens the zones (i.e. open the doors and windows that are protected). The numerical lights for the opened zones will illuminate when opened (or breached). If a zone does not register, contact your installer. Use Area Status Display to view the open zones in other areas assigned to your keypad. Your installer will provide details on the best way to test your particular system.
12.2 Fire Alarm Testing
Do NOT use an open flame or burning materials to test your fire detection devices. Your installer will provide details on the best way to test your particular system.
12.3 System Maintenance
Under normal use your system requires virtually no maintenance other than regular testing. Your installer should change the battery every three years.
