PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTION

For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at

point of entry

skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building. In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system so

that alarm signals can still be sent to the Central Monitoring Station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over the phone lines).

EARLY WARNING FIRE DETECTION

Early warning fire detection is important in a home. Smoke and heat detectors have played a key role in reducing fire deaths in the United States. With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72). These recommendations can be found on page 43 of this manual.

,QWURGXFWLRQ

Congratulations on your ownership of a First Alert Professional Security System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today. This system provides:

•

Three forms of protection: burglary, fire* and emergency

•

At least one keypad which provides control of system and displays system status

•

Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary protection

•

Smoke or combustion detectors* designed to provide early warning in case of fire. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a Central Monitoring Station.

* Commercial installations and some residential systems may not include fire protection – check with your installer.

NOTE: The features and procedures described in this manual apply to both the FA168C and FA148CP security systems. Differences are noted where applicable.

6\VWHP%DVLFV

Burglary Protection

•

Several modes of burglary protection: Stay, Night-Stay, Away, Instant, Maximum.

STAY: arms perimeter zones only and entry delay is on

INSTANT: same as STAY, except entry delay is off

NIGHT-STAY: arms perimeter zones and selected interior zones; entry delay on

AWAY: arms perimeter and all interior zones, entry delay is on

MAXIMUM: same as AWAY, except entry delay is off

•

You can BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the system armed.

•

CHIME mode alerts you to the opening of protected doors and windows while the

system is disarmed.

6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ

Fire Protection

•

Fire protection is always active (if installed) and an alarm sounds if a fire

condition is detected

•

If necessary, you can manually initiate a fire alarm using the keypad (if

programmed).

•

Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for information regarding fire protection,

smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes.

Security Codes

•

You were assigned a 4-digit security code during system installation.

•

Use your security code when arming and disarming the system, and when

performing other system functions.

•

Other users can be assigned different security codes, each with different

authority levels, which define the system functions a particular user can perform.

– 5 –

Page 6

6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ

Zones and Partitions

•

The system sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones,” which are

specific areas of protection (e.g., front door, kitchen window, etc.).

•

Zone numbers are displayed at the keypad when an alarm or trouble condition

occurs on a sensor.

•

Partitions (FA168C) provide two independent areas of protection, with each

partition containing a group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without

affecting other zones or users.

•

Partitioned systems (FA168C) can include a common zone area, which is an area

shared by users of both partitions (such as a lobby in a building).

Arming, Step-Arming and Disarming Burglary Protection

•

The system must be armed before the burglary protection can sense intrusions.

•

To arm your system, enter your user code followed by the desired arming key.

•

If programmed, the [#] key can be pressed instead of entering the security code

when arming the system.

•

You can also use the step-arming key, if programmed, to arm the system, which

lets you use a function key to arm the system in one of three modes by simply

pressing the key repeatedly.

•

To disarm the system, enter your user code then press the [OFF] key.

Alarms

•

When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound, and

the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm.

•

If your system is connected to a Central Monitoring Station, an alarm message

will also be sent.

•

To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.

&RQWLQXHG

– 6 –

Memory of Alarm

•

When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the

zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm.

•

The message remains displayed even after disarming the system, but can be

cleared with another “off” sequence.

Page 7

6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ

Phone Access

•

If included, a phone module permits you to access the system via a touch-tone

phone, either on-premises or by calling-in when away.

•

You can receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the

status of the security system.

•

You can arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands

remotely via the telephone, with voice confirmation provided after each command

entry.

•

Complete information regarding the use of this feature is provided in a separate

manual entitled “Phone Access User's Guide” that is supplied with the voice

module.

Paging Feature

•

If programmed, the system can automatically send certain system condition

messages to up to four (FA168C) or two (FA148CP) pagers.

•

The display consists of code numbers that indicate the type of condition that has

occurred.

Function Keys

•

The “A”, “B”, “C”, and “D” keys on the keypad can be programmed to perform

various functions.

•

Functions include: activate a Panic alarm; arm the system; provide step arming;

switch lights on/off; send a message to a pager; display Time/Date; start a Macro

&RQWLQXHG

Scheduling

•

Your system can be programmed to automatically perform certain functions (e.g.,

arm the system) at a predetermined time each day.

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature the following:

•

A telephone style (digital) keypad

•

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of all

occurrences

•

Built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and troubles. The sounder also

"beeps" during certain system functions and when depressing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press).

•

Backlighting of the LCD display windows. Backlighting turns on when entering the

premises through any assigned entry/exit door, or when any key is pressed. This feature is helpful when a keypad is located in a dimly lit area.

IMPORTANT:

If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.

There are two basic types of keypads which are functionally the same, but they have different types of displays.

Alpha Display 2-line alpha display keypads feature a 2-line, 32-character

alphanumeric LCD which can display system messages in friendly English. These keypads can also be programmed with custom zone descriptors.

Fixed-Word Display Fixed-Word display keypads are functionally identical to Alpha

display keypads, but the LCD display uses pre-designated words to identify the nature and location of occurrences.

beeping will sound during the exit delay period until the last 5 seconds, which then changes to fast beeping (alerting you to the end of exit delay). If you cannot leave by this time, you should stop, disarm the system, and start over to avoid a false alarm.

Exit Delay Restart.

STAY, you can re-start the person in. The system automatically re-arms when exit delay expires, which avoids having to disarm the system and then re-arm it again. In addition, when the system is armed AWAY, re-entering the premises (e.g., forgot a wallet) through the entry/exit door before exit delay time expires will reset the exit delay time.

(QWU\'HOD\

Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the designated entrance door. You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The first is for your primary entrance and the second can be used for a secondary entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system.

Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "CANCELED ALARM" or "CA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station.

To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF.

If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or interior zone is still open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station. The message ""EXIT ALARM" or "EA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. To stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF a second time. An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two minutes after the end of the exit delay.

Your system may have been programmed for this feature to minimize false alarms sent to the Central Monitoring Station. Ask your installer if "Exit Alarm" is active in your system. If so, check this box.

Your system may be set up to automatically send alert messages to several pagers (up to four for FA168C, up to two for FA148CP) as certain conditions occur in your system.

•

The following events can be programmed by your installer to be sent to the pagers: arming and disarming arming/disarming from a keypad using a security code; auto-arming/disarming, arming with assigned button, and keyswitch arming do not send pager messages.)

•

You can also program the system to send an automatic pager message to alert you in the event that someone has not arrived home (disarmed the system) within a defined period of time (see the Scheduling section for details on programming a “latch key report”).

•

Your installer programs the pager phone numbers and reporting events.

•

The pager message consists of a 7-digit system status code that indicates the type of condition that has occurred.

•

An optional, predefined 16-digit character string can precede the 7-digit system status code; these characters can consist of a PIN no., subscriber account no., or any additional data that you may wish to have sent to the pager.

Your installer assigned a master code that is used to perform all system functions. In addition, you can assign different security codes for use by other users (FA168C provides 46 additional codes; FA148CP provides 30 additional codes).

•

Only the System Master and Partition Master can assign user codes to users.

•

Users are identified by 2-digit user numbers and are pre-assigned to either partition 1 or partition 2 (FA168C).

•

Only the Installer or System Master can change user partitions.

•

In addition to a security code, each user is assigned various system attributes.

•

User codes can be used interchangeably within a partition when performing system functions (a system armed with one user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the guest code described below.

•

User code programming involves these steps:

1. Choose a user number from the set of users assigned to the partition in which the user will be operating, and assign a 4-digit security code.

2. Assign an authority level to that user.

3. Assign other attributes as necessary (see attributes on the next page).

NOTE: The factory settings are designed to meet most normal user situations. Therefore, the only step you usually need to do when adding users is assign a user number (from the partition’s pre-assigned user numbers) and a security code.

You must use an Alpha keypad.

•

The system arms only if all partitions are “ready to arm.”

•

If any partition is “not ready,” the system does not arm at all.

•

You can use the GOTO command to bypass open zones before arming.

•

If any partition is already armed when global arming is attempted, that

partition remains in its existing armed state.

Ask your installer if a "common zone" was assigned. If so, check

this box

Your system may have been set up to use a common zone, which is an area shared by users of both partitions, such as a foyer or lobby. If so, please note the following:

•

The common zone will sound and report alarms only when partitions are armed. If only one partition is armed, the system ignores faults on the common zone.

•

Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other partition arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is corrected.

•

Faults on the common zone are displayed on common zone keypads, and will also appear on another partition’s keypad when that partition is armed.

•

Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.

•

Entry/exit time for the common zone is the same as for partition 1.

In The Event Of Telephone Operational Problems

In the event of telephone operational problems, disconnect the control from the phone line by removing the plug from the phone wall jack. We recommend that your installer demonstrate this disconnection on installation of the system. Do not attempt to disconnect the phone connection inside the control. Doing so will result in the loss of your phone lines. If the regular phones work correctly after the control has been disconnected from the phone wall jack, the control has a problem and you should immediately call for service. If upon disconnection of the control, there is still a problem on the phone line, notify the Telephone Company that they have a problem and request prompt phone repair service. The user may not under any circumstances attempt any service or repairs to the security system. Repairs must be made only by authorized service (see the LIMITED WARRANTY statement for information on how to obtain service).

Replacing

Batteries in

Wireless Sensors

Wireless sensors may not have been used in your security system

IMPORTANT:

Use only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.

The components of your security system are designed to be as maintenance-free as possible. However, to make sure that your system is in reliable working condition, do the following:

1. Test your system weekly

2. Test your system after any alarm occurs.

You can silence the keypad’s warning tones by pressing the OFF key, but the keypad's low battery message display will remain on as a reminder that you have a low battery condition in one or more of your wireless sensors. When you replace the weak battery with a fresh one, the sensor sends a "good battery" signal to the control as soon as the sensor is activated (opening/closing of door, window, etc.), causing the low battery display to turn off. If the sensor is not activated, the display will automatically clear within approximately 1 hour.

Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects a low battery in wireless sensors, including smoke detectors, the personal emergency transmitter, and the portable wireless keypad and displays a low battery message*. (A low battery in a portable wireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and displayed as 00.). Battery-operated smoke detectors with a low battery also emit a single "chirp" sound approximately once every 20–30 seconds.

Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and applications, provide 2–4 years of service. 3-volt lithium batteries provide up to 4 or more years of operation. Actual battery life will depend on the environment in which the sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures or large swings in temperature, may all lead to the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.

Routine Care

– 40 –

The low battery message comes on as a warning that battery replacement in indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, a sensor causing a low battery indication is still fully operational.

• Treat the components of your security system as you would any other

electrical equipment. Do not slam sensor-protected doors or windows.

• Keep dust from accumulating on the keypad and all protective

sensors, particularly on motion sensors and smoke detectors.

• The keypad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft cloth. Do not spray water or any other fluid on the units.

Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, for continuous protection. In the event of an emergency, the strategically located smoke and heat detectors will sound their alarms and automatically send signals to your system, triggering a loud, interrupted pulsed sound* from the Keypad(s) and any external sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your Keypad and remain on until you silence the alarm (see below for silencing fire alarms).

With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72) noted below.

Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: A smoke detector installed outside of each separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.

In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.

Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:

1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so that they can be heard by all occupants.

2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should lead to the door that permits normal exit from the building. The other may be a window, should your path be unpassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows if there is a long drop to the ground.

3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs and rooftops that can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep these routes free from obstruction and post copies of the escape routes in every room.

4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This will prevent deadly smoke from entering while you escape.

5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route. If the door is cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door if smoke or heat rushes in.

6. When smoke is present, crawl on the ground. Do not walk upright, since smoke rises and may overcome you. Clearer air is near the floor.

7. Escape quickly; don't panic.

8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from your house, where everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the authorities and account for those missing. Choose someone to assure that nobody returns to the house — many die going back

WARNING! THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:

• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.

• Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work without power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.

• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.

• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.

• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson. Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.

• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection performance can decrease.

• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is muffled from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.

• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.

• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.

• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly. Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure their lives and property. We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones to learn about these developments.
