General

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

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. Your system consists of at least one Keypad which provides full control of system operation, various sensors which provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide early warning in case of fire.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status and provides appropriate information for display on the Keypad(s) used with the system, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.

A Partitioned

System independent areas of protection intended for use by independent users. For the most

Zones Your system’s sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones.” For example,

Simply stated, a partitioned system is a single physical alarm system that provides part, you as a user need not know about other users and their structure in the system,

but from time to time, you may see display messages which indicate the system is in use by another user. Do not be concerned, this is normal. Refer to the ACCESS/h/G

OTHER PARTITIONS section for additional information.

the sensing device on your Entry/Exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These

numbers will appear on the display, along with an alpha descriptor for that zone (if programmed), when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Burglary

Protection

Security Codes

Your system provides four modes of burglary protection: STAY, AWAY, INSTANT and MAXIMUM, and allows you to BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the system armed. You must turn on or “arm” the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary alarms. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening of doors and windows while the system is disarmed. Refer to the other sections of this manual for procedures for using these features.

The following table lists the four different arming modes and the results of each.

Arming

. STAY

INSTANT MAXIMUM

At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal four-digit security code, known only to you. You must enter the security code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system functions. As an additional safety feature, other users who do not have a need to know your code can be assigned different security codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for procedures on adding additional security codes to the system.

Using Schedules

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FlRE ALARM SYSTEM section for

important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning

emergency exit routes from the premises. 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. 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 (ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains displayed until it is cleared by disarming the system (see DlSARMlNG THE SYSTEM section).

by simply pressing the D key. This feature can be used to complicated procedure (such as going to another partition to bypass a zone), or it can be used to simplify an everyday, repeated procedure. Refer to the SPEED KEY section for procedures for using this feature.

Your system may have been programmed with schedules for automatically arming,

disarming and activating various devices and/or performing other system functions at predetermined times. Users can modify some of these schedules by manually delaying a closing time, using temporary schedules, or by programming special user schedules. Refer to the US/A/G SCHEDULES section at the end of this manual for scheduling related procedures.

Device Timers

The system provides up to 20 “timers” which can be used to control various devices, such as lights or appliances. These timers are similar in concept to the individual appliance timers that might be purchased at a department store. The devices that can be controlled (up to 16) are programmed into the system by the installer. Refer to the

PROGRAMMING DEVICE TIMERS section for procedures.

ENTRY/EXIT DELAYS

General

Information

Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm, Exit delay begins immediately after entering any am-ring command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period.

Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter through the designated entrance door. But the system must be disarmed 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.

You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or

MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the premises

or whileaway for extended periods of time. See your installer for your delay times.

ABOUTTHEKEYPADS

General

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the

IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.

nature and location of all occurrences. Keypad display back lighting is programmable to always stay on or to light only when a key is pressed, then turn off a few minutes later.

The keypads also feature a built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and troubles. It will also “beep” during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay times, during CHIME mode, and when depressing keys to arm and disam the system (to acknowledge the key press). These sounds can be optionally suppressed

in some of your keypads (so as not to disturb other users of the system). Ask your installer if this has been done.

There are two basic types of keypads -

a FIXED-WORD (non-Alpha) keypad and an ALPHA keypad (both described below). The keys on these keypads are located behind a flip-down cover which can be removed, if desired.

The Alpha

Keypad

Alpha keypads feature a 24ine, 32 character alphanumeric Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which can display system messages in friendly English. Abbreviated user’s instructions can also be displayed (see Self Help paragraph in the SYSTEM OVERVlEWsection). These keypads can also be programmed with custom zone descriptors.

The Fixed-Word Fixed-Word keypads are functionally identical to alpha keypads, but the LCD display

If an alarm has occurred, note the zone number displayed on the keypad and repeat step 1 above to clear the ‘Memory of Alarm” and restore the Ready message display. If the Ready message will not display, go to the displayed zone and remedy the fault (close windows, etc.). If the fault cannot be remedied, notify the alarm agency.

BYPASSING PROTECTION

ZONES

Using the 1

BYPASS Key

This key is used when you want to arm your system with one or more zones intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed. All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed. Bypasses are also removed if the arming procedure that follows the bypass command is not successful.

Note: The system will not allow fire or emergency zones to be bypassed.

To bypass zones, the system must be disarmed first.

BYPASS

1. Enter your security code and press

2. Enter zone number(s) for the zones to be bypassed (e.g., 01,02,03, etc.). Important! All single-digit numbers must be preceded by a zero (for example,

enter 01 for zone 1).

When finished, the keypad will display the word BYPASS along with each bypassed zone number. Wait for these

Typical bypass message
