THIS MANUAL IS FURNISHED TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM AND BECOME PROFICIENT IN ITS OPERATION. ALL USERS OF YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM SHOULD READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS IN THIS BOOKLET. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN THE SECURITY SYSTEM NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS BOOKLET SHOULD BE KEPT IN AN ACCESSIBLE LOCATION FOR THE LIFE OF THE SECURITY SYSTEM. IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND ANY PART OF THIS MANUAL, YOU SHOULD NOTIFY YOUR INSTALLING COMPANY. READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL AND, IF POSSIBLE, PRACTICE ON THE KEYPAD CONTROL WHILE YOUR PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER IS ON SITE.

The SECURITY CONTROL can be turned on (ARM ED) and off (DIS ARMED) by enter ing a 4 or 6 digit code into the Keypad Control, which is similar to a telephone keypad. If your Security Control has been so programmed, you may be able to turn on (ARM) your System by simply pressing the [STAY] or [EXIT] key. The system must always be Disarmed using a 4 or 6 digit code. The LCD keypad includes 9 lights and a 32-character liquid crystal display and a built-in electronic sounder. These provide specific information relating to the status of the security system which is described in the b ooklet. Understanding what the lights and sounds mean will help you to easily operate your system.

KEEP IN MIND, THE LEVEL OF SECURITY YOU WILL OBTAIN WITH THIS SYSTEM RELATES SPECIFICALLY WITH TWO MAJOR FACTORS:

1. The quantity, quality, and placement of security devices attached to this system.

2. The knowledge you have of the security system and how that knowledge is utilized

YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING FACTS WHEN PREPARING A SAFETY/SECURITY PLAN FOR YOUR HOME/BUSINESS.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SECURITY CONTROL SYSTEM. IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND ANY PORTION OF THIS MANUAL, OR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR SYSTEM, CONTACT THE INSTALLING COMPANY.

in a weekly test of the complete system.

1. Your security system is an electronic device and is subject to fail ure or malfunction. Do not rely on it as your single source of security.

2. Your system should be tested weekly.

3. Your system will not work without power.

4. Warning devices will need to be loud enough, wired correctly, and properly placed to provide notification of an alarm event.

5. Smoke and heat detectors may not detect heat and smoke in all situations.

6. Use qualified security professionals to install and maintain your security system.

7. It may be possible to arm the security system without the backup battery connected. Your periodic test should be d one with A.C. P o wer remove d to ver i f y the battery is connected and adequately charge d.

8. Care should be taken to plug in and restrain the A.C. Transformer after testing.

V. KEYPAD CONTROL TONES (BEEPS)

A sounder is built into the keypad and may sound for any of the following reasons:

 Beeps for all keypresses.  Sounds a continuous tone during the Entry delay time.  Pulses when a day zone is violated while the system is disarmed.  Pulses when a FIRE zone has a trouble condition.  Pulses when the armed status changes and the AC power is off.  Beeps 3 times for trying to arm with the “READY” light off, if “FORCE

ARMING” has not been selected.

 Beeps 1 second for the ‘CHIME” feature.  Beeps 1 second at the end of the exit delay.  Beeps to indicate telephone line fault if selected.  Beeps during an exit delay; beeps rapidly for the last 10 seconds of

an exit delay; and beeps 1 second at the end of the exit delay.

 Pulses when one or more of the following conditions are detected:

Zone or Box Tamper, Low Battery, AC Power Fail, or Expander trouble.

 Beeps 3 times every minute indicating a low battery or missing

VIII. EMERGENCY EVACUATION PLANS

An emergency evacuation plan should be establishe d for an actual fire alarm condition. For example, the following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association and can be used as a guide in establishing an evacuation plan for your building.

Draw up a floor plan of your home. Show windows, doors, stairs, and rooftops that can be used for escape. Indicate each occupant's escape rout es. Always keep these routes free from obstruction. Determine two means of escape from each room. One will be the normal exit from the building. The other may be a window that opens easily. An escape la dder may have to be located near the window if there is a long drop to the ground below. Set a meeting place outdoors for a headcount of the building occupants. Practice esc ape procedures. In a home, sleep with bedroom door closed; this will increase your escape time. If you suspect fire, test the door for heat. If you think it is safe, brace your shoulder against the door and open it cautiously. Be ready to slam the door if smoke or heat rush in. Practice escaping to the outdoors and meeting in an assigned spot. Call the Fire Department from a neighbor's phone.

NOTE: After the installation of your Security System has been completed, notify your local Fire and Police Departments to give them your name and address for their records. Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the insta llation of fire detection equipment in all rooms. This equipment shou ld be installed in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association's Standard 72. For additional information write the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
