For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at
point of entry
to a home or commercial premises. This would include any
every possible
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 45 of this manual.
This manual is a step-by-step guide that will acquaint you with the system's
features and benefits. It defines the components and their functions, describes
their operation, and provides clear step-by-step instructions for normal and
emergency procedures. Keep this manual in a convenient place so that you can
refer to it as necessary.

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
FA168CPS 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.
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.
6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ
– 5 –
6\VWHP2YHUYLHZ
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 (FA168CPS) 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 (FA168CPS) 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.
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 (e.g., “FIRE”).
• The message remains displayed even after disarming the system, but can be
cleared with another “off” sequence.
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
Scheduling
• Your system can be programmed to automatically perform certain functions (e.g.,
arm the system) at a predetermined time each day.

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.
• Refer to the Phone Access User's Guide supplied with the Phone Module for
information regarding the use of this feature.
Paging Feature
• If programmed, the system can automatically send certain system condition
messages to up to four (FA168CPS) or two (FA148CP) pagers.
• The system can also automatically alert a pager if the system has not been
disarmed by a certain time (e.g., can let you know a child has not arrived home).
• You can also manually send a message to designated pagers.
The Voice Keypads feature a voice message center
that lets you record and playback one message.
The message can be up to 2.5-minutes long

Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay.
([LW'HOD\
Exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door(s) without setting
off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after arming your system in any arming
mode and Alpha Display keypads display the message “You May Exit Now.” When
“You may exit now” disappears, the system is fully armed. If programmed, a slow
beeping will sound during the exit delay period until the last 10 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.
arming STAY, you can re-start the exit delay at any time – simply press the [✱]
key, then let that 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, reopening and closing the entry/exit door
before exit delay time expires (e.g., reentering to get a forgotten item) will reset the
exit delay time once.
(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 (simply enter your security
code) 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 the INSTANT or
MAXIMUM arming mode. This mode provides greater security while on the
premises or while away for extended periods of time.
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior
zone is faulted within two minutes after the end of the exit delay (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" and zone number is displayed on the keypad. No
message is sent to the Central Station.
To clear the exit alarm condition, make the open zone intact then 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" and zone
number is displayed on the keypad. 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.
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.

The “A”, “B”, “C” or “D” keys can be used to automatically activate a series of
commands of up to 16 keystrokes, if programmed for this function. These keystrokes,
as a group, are called “macros” and are stored in the system's memory.
• Typical macro functions can include:
- Arming sequences: STAY, Night-STAY, INSTANT, or AWAY
- Bypassing particular zone(s)
- Activating relay(s) for turning on (or off) lights, fans, etc.
• Up to four (FA168CPS) or two (FA148CP) macros can be assigned – but no
more than one macro to a key.

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 (FA168CPS
provides 47 additional codes; FA148CP provides 31 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 (FA168CPS).
•
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 and Arm Only 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:
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.

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 both
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 will not be able to
arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is
corrected.
•
Faults on the common zone are displayed on common partition
keypads, and will also appear on another partition’s keypad when
the alternate 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, 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).

security system
IMPORTANT:
Use only batteries
recommended by
your installer as
replacement.
Routine Care
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.
*
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.

of Alarm
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).
Temporal pulse sounding is produced for Fire alarms, as follows:

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 impassable.
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 detec tion 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, t he 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.
