Security System Components

The security system uses devices called sensors that use radio waves to communicate alarms to the Control Panel (panel).

The system is supervised, meaning that the panel checks the status of each sensor to detect problems. If the panel detects trouble it will notify you with beeps and indicator lights on the panel itself.

Your security system installation may include any of the following devices:

Control Panel

The Control Panel is used to operate and program your security system. It communicates to you through voice messages, beeps, and by lighting or flashing buttons. The panel can communicate to a central monitoring station.

Touchpads

Remote Handheld Touchpads are used to control the security system primarily from within the home.

Keychain Touchpads are used to control the security system from within or near the outside of your home.

Sensors

Indoor Motion Sensors detect motion in a protected indoor area. When motion is detected the panel may respond by sounding chimes or an alarm.

Door/Window Sensors detect the opening of a door or window.

Smoke Sensors detect smoke and a significant rise in temperature. They have a built

in siren that sounds when smoke or a significant rise in temperature is detected.

Simon Security System 1

Page 8

Modules

Appliance Modules can be programmed to turn appliances or fluorescent lights on and off.

Lamp Modules can be programmed to turn non-fluorescent lights on and off.

Universal Modules are primarily used for controlling devices other than appliances and

lamps. Check with your installer for other applications.

Ethernet Interface Module is designed to provide access to the panel via a computer and the premisesconnect.com website.

• Installers - to aid in installation and maintenance of security systems.

• Dealers - to simplify customer and account management.

• First Responders - to identify where and how to respond.

• Customers - to receive event notifications and control their security system.

How You Communicate to Your System

Note

The Master Access Code default is 1-2-3-4 when the security system is shipped from the factory. You should change your code after your system is installed (see “Programming Your System”).

Sending commands or instructing your security system is done through key presses on the panel, touchpads, through the use of a remote telephone or a computer.

Control Panel

You can enter commands for your security system through simple key presses on the panel. Depending on how your system is programmed, you may need to enter an access code for certain commands. An access code is a numeric code that allows authorization to operate your security system.

Some panels have the capability for 2-way communication. 2-Way is primarily used by the central monitoring station to monitor sounds and verbally communicate with a person inside the home. This feature is similar to a speaker phone feature on a phone.

Remote Handheld Touchpad

This touchpad gives you the option to enter commands from any room in your house. You can enter commands through simple key presses on the touchpad.

Keychain Touchpad

Keychain Touchpads are handy for simple arming, disarming and light control functions. They are portable and can be carried off-site in a purse or pocket

Telephone

Touchtone telephones can be used to communicate with your system while you are offsite. Ask your installer if you have this feature.

How to Use Your Control Panel

Note

It may be necessary to enter an access code to arm your system. Check with your installer to see if this feature is enabled.

Computer

With the addition of the Ethernet Interface module a computer can be used to control your system.

The panel interface consists of four rows of buttons.

HOME SECURITY

The Home Security buttons are used to arm and disarm doors, windows and motion sensors in your system. The System Status button is used to give information on system activity.

Arm

Turn on intrusion/burglary protection for your system. You can arm door/window sensors, motion sensors or both depending on the buttons you press.

Disarm

Turn off intrusion/burglary protection for your system. Only intrusion/burglary sensors such as doors/windows and motion are disarmed. Environmental sensors, such as smoke, stay armed at all times.

System Status

Press to hear information about your system. If the button is lit, there is a problem with the system. If the button is blinking, an alarm has occurred. Press the button to hear what is wrong with the system. (See “Status Beeps”.)

Exit Delay

Exit Delay is the amount of time the system gives you to exit the home before the system is armed (between 5 and 254 seconds). This is programmed by the installer. When you arm you will hear beeps during the exit delay (see the table “Status Beeps” of this manual to determine the meaning of panel/system beeps).

Your Exit Delay is set for ___ seconds.

Entry Delay

Entry Delay is the amount of time the system gives you to disarm the system after entering the home (between 5 and 254 seconds). This is programmed by the installer. When you enter your home you will hear beeps during the entry delay (see the table “Status Beeps” of this manual to determine the meaning of panel/system beeps).

Your Entry Delay is set for ___ seconds.

Quick Exit

Note

The designated door may be opened and closed once. If you close the designated door behind you when you exit, you will have to disarm the system upon reentering. Leave the designated door open while using the Quick Exit feature.

The Quick Exit feature is used when someone wants to briefly leave while the home is still armed (i.e. get the newspaper). This feature needs to be enabled by your installer. When you press the Disarm button the panel will announce exit time on. This will allow a designated exit door to be open for up to 2 minutes without triggering an alarm.

Silent Exit

This feature silences the status beeps that accompany the exit delay (see Status Beeps). Press Chime Doors after you arm the system to silence status beeps. The panel will still beep at the beginning and end of the exit delay.

Subdisarm

If your system includes 24-hour protection sensors on items such as gun or jewelry cases, you must subdisarm the panel before accessing these areas to avoid causing an alarm. Environmental sensors, such as smoke, stay armed at all times.

You may have up to 254 seconds (programmable by your installer) to cancel an accidental alarm. See your installer to find out what time is programmed. If the programmed time has passed, you must call the central monitoring station to cancel the alarm.

You have ___ seconds to cancel an accidental alarm.

To cancel an accidental alarm before the programmed dialer delay time expires, enter your access code.

Guidelines for Preventing Accidental Alarms

The following guidelines will go a long way toward preventing accidental alarms.

• Close doors and widows before you leave your house.

• Gather your belongings, so you can exit immediately after arming the system.

• Always enter and exit within the programmed delay times.

• Make sure you leave through a door that has a delay time set for it.

• Disarm your system immediately upon returning home.

• Be aware of the devices in your security system and learn how each one operates.

• If you have pets, ask your installer if you need pet lenses in your motion detectors.

• Check the location of your smoke detectors. Smoke detectors near bathrooms and kitchens can be tripped by steam and smoke from cooking.

• Take note of system beeps, voice announcements and indicator lights which indicate the current system status.

Access Codes

Your security system has a master access code, access codes 1-5, and a panic code used for arming and disarming the panel. The master code is used for disarming and programming your system. Access codes 1-5 are generally used for children or as temporary codes for a baby-sitter or service personnel. The panic code may be entered to arm, disarm or subdisarm the system in a non-medical emergency situation. The panel will call the central station with a panic alarm report, but there will be no indication of an alarm at the panel.

422-2806 Rev A

Simon Security System 13

Page 20

Note

Because different codes can be entered using the same button presses you have to use caution when programming the panic code. You need to ensure that the panic code does not use the same button presses as other access codes. For example if the master code is 1234, do not program the panic code to be 2244. The panel would interpret these codes to be the same code.

Note

Access Code length is set to ___ numbers.

Your system may be set up so that the master code or an access code is required when arming. If so, the panel will prompt you to enter a code when you attempt to arm the system.

Trouble Beeps Your security system is able to automatically test itself for:

• Power failures

• Low batteries

• Non-working sensors

• Communication troubles with the Central Monitoring Station

Simon Security System

Page 25

When your security system detects one of the problems above, six rapid beeps sound every minute, until the trouble condition is corrected.

Silencing Trouble Beeps

To stop the trouble beeps, press the SYSTEM STATUS button or arm/disarm the sys- tem while the trouble condition exists. Trouble beeps will begin 4 hours later, unless the trouble condition is corrected.

AC Power Failure

This condition occurs if your security system has been accidentally unplugged or if there has been an AC power outage. The backup battery will take over. If AC power is not restored within 15 seconds, the panel will go dark and alert you with trouble beeps. If you press any button, the display will light and pressing SYSTEM STATUS will confirm the AC power failure. If AC power is not restored within a programmed period of time (5-254 minutes) the system will call the central monitoring station (if programmed by installer). The backup battery, if fully charged, will last for 18 - 24 hours with no AC power.

System Battery Failure

This condition occurs if the emergency backup battery has failed. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS but- ton to hear the trouble message. If your AC power is not working, your security system will shut down once the battery has failed. If the condition does not clear after AC power has been restored and 24 hours have passed, call your security system dealer.

Restoration of Power

This condition occurs after a complete loss of power (AC and battery). When power is restored, the panel will return to the arming state with the same zones bypassed it had prior to losing power.

Sensor Failure

This condition occurs if a sensor is not communicating with the panel. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button to hear which sensor(s) failed. Perform sensor tests. It may be necessary for you to call your security system dealer if the problem continues.

Sensor Low Battery

This condition occurs if a system sensor has a low battery. The sensor may still be communicating with the panel. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS but- ton will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button to hear which sensor has a low bat- tery. It may be necessary for you to call your security system dealer to resolve this problem. Some sensor batteries can be replaced by the homeowner.

Fail-To-Communicate

This condition occurs if your security system cannot communicate to the central monitoring station. Your system will try to report to the central monitoring station 8 times before it tells you there is a Fail-To-Communicate problem. Status beeps will start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button to hear the trouble message. It may be necessary for you to call your security system dealer if the problem continues.

Sensor Open

This condition occurs if a door or window is open, a system sensor has been disturbed and not reset properly. For example, a Door/Window Sensor magnet may have been removed from the sensor. Your system will indicate this condition to you by causing the SYSTEM STATUS button to light. When you press this button, the system

Simon Security System 19

Page 26

responds with Sensor # Name open. Correct the problem by resetting the sensor. If this condition continues, call your security system dealer

Sensor Tampered

This condition occurs when a sensor is physically tampered with. If the system is armed an alarm will occur. For example, the cover is taken off of one of the sensors. Your system will indicate this condition to you by causing the SYSTEM STATUS button to light. When you press this button, the system responds with, Sensor # Name tampered. Correct the problem by resetting the sensor. If this condition continues, call your security system dealer.

Option 50 Detected

The panel receiver may be experiencing some interference. The system will call to notify the central monitoring station about this problem.

Siren 1 or 2 Failure

Alarm System Limitations

Not even the most advanced alarm system can guarantee protection against burglary, fire, or environmental problems.

All alarm systems are subject to possible compromise or failure-to-warn for a variety of reasons.

• If sirens are not placed within hearing range of persons sleeping, in remote parts of

the premises, or if they are placed behind doors or other obstacles.

• If intruders gain access through unprotected points of entry or areas where sensors have been bypassed.

• If intruders have the technical means of bypassing, jamming, or disconnecting all or part of the system.

• If power to sensors is inadequate or disconnected.

• If any environmental sensors are not located in areas where the appropriate condition can be detected.

• If smoke does not reach a Smoke Sensor. For example, Smoke Sensors cannot detect smoke in chimneys, walls, roofs, or smoke blocked by a closed door. Sensors may not detect smoke in other levels of the building. Sensors may not warn in time when fires are caused by smoking in bed, explosions, improper storage of flammables, overloaded electrical circuits, or other hazardous conditions.

• If telephone lines are out of service.

Inadequate maintenance is the most common cause of alarm failure. Therefore, test your system at least once per week to be sure sensors, sirens, and phone communications are all working correctly.

Although having an alarm system may make you eligible for reduced insurance premiums, the system is no substitute for insurance.

This section describes what you can do to plan ahead for an emergency:

• Emergency Planning

• Your Floor Plan

Emergency Planning

Since an emergency is always unexpected, you should develop plans to help prepare for a variety of emergency situations. Periodically discuss and rehearse emergency plans to include the following:

• Understand how to use your security system

• Know the normal state of doors and windows; open, closed, or locked.

• Escape fast! (Do not stop to pack.)

• Use a different escape route if closed doors feel hot to the touch.

• Crawl and hold your breath as much as possible to help reduce smoke inhalation during your escape.

• Meet at a designated outdoor location.

• Emphasize that no one should return to the premises if there is a fire.

• Notify the fire department from a neighbor’s phone.

• Emphasize that no one should enter the premises if they hear sirens in the house.

• If you arrive at the premises and hear sirens, do not enter. Call for emergency assistance from a neighbor’s phone.

NOTE: Ceiling-mounted smoke detectors should be located in the center of the roo hall, or no less than 10 cm (4 inches) from the wall. When the detector is mounted on the wall, the top of the detector should be 10 to 30 cm (4 to 12 inches) from the ceiling.

NOTE: Do not install smoke detectors where normal ambient temperatures are above 38ºC (100º F) or below 4.4º C (40ºF). Also, do not locate detectors in front AC/Heat registers or other locations where normal air circulation will keep smoke from entering the detector.

Your Floor Plan

Use the following guidelines when drawing your floor plan (use the next page to draw your floor plan):

• Show all building levels.

• Show exits from each room (two exits per room are recommended).
