UNDERSTANDING THE LIGHTS
ARMED LIGHT
The armed light is “on” when the system is armed. The armed light is
“off” when it is disarmed. The armed light will flash when there has been
an alarm during the previous arm cycle.
BYPASS LIGHT
The bypass light is “on” when any zone in this keypad’s partition is
bypassed. The zone(s) that is bypassed will also be illuminated. If the
bypass light is “off”, no zones are bypassed.
CANCEL LIGHT
The cancel light will flash during an abort delay time. If a code is entered
followed by the [CANCEL] key while this light is flashing, all abortable
reports will stop the communication process. Note: The abort feature
must be enabled. Entering a code followed by the [CANCEL] key during
or after an alarm report to the central station will cause the cancel light to
come on. It will stay on until the central station has received the cancel
report. Note: The cancel feature must be enabled.
CHIME LIGHT
The chime light is “on” when the chime feature is “on”; “off” otherwise.
EXIT LIGHT
The exit light is “on” during the exit delay. Please note that the light will
flash during the last 10 seconds of the exit delay as a warning that the
time is running out. (The user may want to disarm the system if the exit
light is flashing in order to prevent an alarm. The user may then re-arm
the system and exit before the delay expires.)
FIRE LIGHT
A steady fire light means a fire zone has been faulted. A rapidly flashing
fire light means that a fire zone is in a trouble condition.
