SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Features
General Information
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on the configuration of your system. The system consists of a touch screen control for system operation, various wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and optional smoke or combustion detectors to provide early fire warning. In addition, optional wireless keypads or key fobs may have been installed to allow you to control the system away from the touch screen control. The system may also be used as a speaker phone. The system monitors protection zones and system status, displays appropriate information on the touch screen display, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines or via the cellular/GSM network or the internet to a central alarm monitoring station, and may also be capable of two-way voice communication with the central station.
IMPORTANT SECURITY NOTICE
Your key fob is similar to your keys or access card. If lost or stolen, another person can compromise your security system. Immediately notify your Dealer/Installer of a lost or stolen key fob. The Dealer/Installer will then remove the key fob programming from the security system.
The user features of this security system are listed below. Ask your installer which features have been programmed for your system.
•Stay and Away arming modes: By using these modes you can protect either the perimeter only, or the entire premises.
•Panic key functions: A designated key allow you to manually activate fire, medical emergency, or silent police alarms. Refer to the Panic Keys section for detailed information.
•Follow me reminder announcements: Allows the panel to dial a number that you have specified, at a programmed day/time and deliver a message programmed by your installer.
•Real-time clock: Touch screen displays current date and time. Refer to the Clock/Calendar section for procedures for setting the time.
•Message center: The system allows recording and play back of brief voice messages. Refer to the Recording/Playback Messages section for procedures.
•Two-way voice: Allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct two-way conversations with individuals on the premises Refer to the Two-Way Voice section for detailed information.
•Phone Control: Provides a remote interactive phone capability that permits access to the security system from any off-site touch-tone telephone. Refer to the Remote Phone Control Feature section for detailed information.
•Speaker Phone: The system is capable of operating as a speaker phone allowing hands free telephone conversation. Refer to the Speaker Phone Feature section for detailed information.
•Security Codes: The system is capable of supporting an Installer code, Master user code and 14 additional User codes including Babysitter and Duress codes. Refer to the Security Codes section for detailed information.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Features
•Device activation: Allows you to send “Follow-Me” or e-mail messages, as a result of a system event such as an alarm or trouble condition. Refer to the Rules section for detailed information.
•Schedules feature: Allows you to schedule the automatic activation or deactivation of program events (e.g. alarm clock, reminder, and latch key). Refer to the Schedules section for detailed information.
•Text Message center (Requires TotalConnect Service): The system allows you to send and receive text messages. Refer to the Text Message Center section for detailed information.
•Web content (Requires TotalConnect Service): The system allows you to view and display web content including weather, news and traffic reports. Refer to the Web Content section for detailed information.
Zones
Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, 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 appear on the display when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.
Fire Protection
The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from the premises.
Carbon Monoxide
The carbon monoxide (CO) portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an alarm if a CO condition is detected. Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for more information.
Burglary Protection
Your system provides two modes of burglary protection: STAY and AWAY. STAY mode protects the perimeter only, allowing you to freely move inside the premises. AWAY mode protects the entire system. Both modes provide an entry delay time that allows you to reenter the premises without setting off an alarm. For additional security, you can turn the entry delay off when arming the system. Refer to the Arming the System section. The system also allows you to bypass selected zones before arming the system, if desired. Refer to the Bypassing Protection Zones section. The system also provides a Chime mode, for alerting users to the opening of protected doors and windows while the system is disarmed.
You must arm the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary alarms. Refer to the Arming the System section for detailed procedures and information.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
General Operation
Security Codes
At the time of installation, you were asked to provide a personal 4-digit security or “Master User” code. You must enter the user code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system functions. As an additional security feature, other users who do not need to know your code can be assigned up to 14 different security codes. Refer to the Security Codes section for procedures on adding security codes to the system.
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, the LYNX Touch internal sounder will sound for about 15-seconds, and the touch screen displays the zone(s) causing the alarm. After 15-seconds, the internal sounder stops temporarily and voice announcements of the zones in alarm begins. When these zones have been announced, the internal sounder sounds again and the cycle repeats itself, until the system is disarmed or until alarm bell timeout occurs. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed indicating memory of alarm. Refer to the Disarming the System section for information about clearing the memory of alarm display
Two-Way Voice Feature
The control supports voice dialog between an operator at the central station and an individual at the premises. This feature allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct a two-way conversation with an individual(s) at the premises and allows the operator to gather information about the nature and location of the alarm that may be helpful in responding to police or rescue departments. If the Two-way Voice Feature has been programmed and an alarm condition is detected, the system sends an alarm message to the central station. After acknowledgement is received, a “listen in to follow” message is sent to the central station. In response to this message, the central station operator can enter commands that allow him to initiate a 5-minute voice session.
If a subsequent security zone is violated during a voice session, the session will continue and the alarm will be buffered. If a fire zone is violated during a voice session, the system will terminate the session and process the alarm. During the voice session, the Red (Armed) and Green (Ready) LEDs will alternately blink in the Talk and VOX Modes but not during Listen Mode.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
General Operation
LYNX Touch SIA False Alarm Prevention Features
Many false alarms are caused by simple accidents, like forgetting to close a door when you leave. The LYNX Touch SIA includes several features that help prevent false alarms and some of these are optional or programmable. Although turning off some of these features may provide additional security, it may also increase the chance of false alarms. Your installer can help you decide whether to use the features or not. The following provides a brief explanation of the features included with your security system that help prevent false alarms from occurring, and what you should do if such alarms occur.
•Exit/Entry Delays: Your security system has been programmed with delay times that allow you to exit the premises after arming, and to disarm the system upon entry, before an alarm occurs. If you leave the premises too late when exiting, or disarm too late when arriving home, it will cause a false alarm. If an alarm occurs, you should disarm the system immediately, and wait for your monitoring company to call you.
•Exit Alarms: Leaving the premises and forgetting to close the door is a common cause of false alarms. The security system will sound an alarm, and display “Exit Error”. The security system provides extra time for you to disarm the system before dialing your monitoring company. Disarming the system immediately may prevent a call to your monitoring company.
•Exit Time Restart-Exit Delay Restart/Reset: If you leave the premises and enter again before the exit delay has expired, the system will restart the exit time giving you more time to leave. If there are less than 10 seconds left to exit, the system will sound fast beeps, indicating an alarm will occur soon if you fail to exit or disarm immediately. If this occurs, disarm the system and arm it again when you are ready to leave. The Exit Delay can also be restarted by pressing the RESTART Icon.
•Auto Stay Feature: If you arm the system in the “AWAY” mode from the control’s keypad or an RF keypad but no one exits, the alarm system will automatically change to the “STAY” mode. This will prevent you from tripping alarms by remaining on premises. Disarm the system and arm away again when you are ready to leave.
•Burglary Abort Window: Your security system has a delay between the time a burglary alarm sounds, and the time the monitoring company is called. This delay gives you time to disarm the security system before the alarm is reported to the monitoring company. This delay is factory preset at 30 seconds, but may be increased or decreased by your installer.
•False Alarms: If a burglary or fire alarm condition occurs and the system has been disarmed, the keypad will display “Alarm Cancelled”. If this was a false alarm, wait for the monitoring company to call you. They will verify your security code or password and prevent them from calling emergency personnel to respond to a false alarm.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
About the Touch screen Control
General
**IMPORTANT**
If the LYNX Touch is beeping rapidly upon entering the premises, an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
The touch screen icons and keys allow you to control all system functions. Additionally, the touch screen display shows the zone and description of all system occurrences. When the speaker phone mode is active, a full-function telephone keypad is displayed on the touch screen.
The system also features a built-in sounder, which will sound during alarms and troubles and a built-in speaker announces system status. Additionally, the system "beeps" during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay times, in Chime mode, and when depressing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press).
The voice announcement volume is adjustable, however the “beeps” that sound in response to alarms always sound at the maximum volume level. All other “beeps” (trouble, chime, exit/entry, etc) can be set to either low or high volume.

Arming the System
Arming in Stay Mode
Use this mode when you are staying home, but expect someone to use the entrance door later. Close all protected perimeter windows and doors before arming. The green Ready indicator on the control should be lit if the system is ready to be armed. When armed in STAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the premises. Late arrivals can enter through the designated entrance door without causing an alarm, but they must disarm the system within the entry delay period or an alarm will occur. If Quick Arm was programmed by the installer, you do not need to enter the security code to arm the system. The security code must always be used to disarm the system, however.
The Babysitter Code and Installer Code cannot disarm the system unless it was used to arm the system. In addition, if the system is armed by pressing via Quick-Arming, neither the Babysitter Code nor Installer Code can disarm the system.

Auto Stay Feature
If this feature is enabled by installer, the LYNX Touch SIA, when armed AWAY from the control’s keypad or a Wireless Keypad, switches to the STAY mode if the Exit Time expires and no exit has been made.
NOTE: If the exit route entry/exit sensor is in a check condition or has been bypassed it will result in a loss of interior protection because the alarm system will arm STAY in this case. Consult with your installer for servicing of the entry exit zones or to turn off this feature if a check condition on entry exit zones occurs.

Entry/Exit Delays
Exit Delay
Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. The system display will count down the time remaining in the exit delay, if programmed by your installer. If the system has been Armed Away, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period, if programmed by your installer. The exit door must be closed before the end of the exit delay. During the last 10 seconds of the exit delay fast beeps will sound as a warning that the delay time is nearing its end. The exit beeps cannot be silenced.
Restarting Exit Delay While System Armed
Ask your installer if this feature is active for your system. If active, you can restart the exit delay one time after arming in Stay or Away mode during the exit delay by selecting the “Restart” key. This will allowing extra time for someone to enter or exit or re-enter the property before the system is armed.

Exit Alarms
To minimize false alarms sent to the alarm monitoring company, your system may have been programmed for this feature. Ask your installer if Exit Alarm is active for your system.
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted when the exit delay ends (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 “Alarm Cancelled is displayed, in the system bar. Additionally, Alarm and the faulted zone are displayed with their associated icons in the system/zone status area. No message is sent to the alarm monitoring company. To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be secured. To clear the display, select the “Disarm” icon OR depress the “Off” key and then enter your security code.
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 alarm monitoring company. The message “Alarm Exit Error" is displayed, in the system bar. Additionally, Alarm and the faulted zone are displayed with their associated icons in the

system/zone status area. The alarm will continue to sound until the system is disarmed or timeout ocurs. To stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed by selecting the “Disarm” icon OR depressing the “Off” key and then entering your security code. The message “Alarm Cancelled" is displayed, in the system bar, indicating that the alarm has been cancelled (if this feature is enabled by the installer). “Alarm” and the faulted zone continue to be displayed with their associated icons in the system/zone status area. To clear the display, select the “Disarm” icon OR depress the “Off” key and then enter your security code a second time. An exit alarm also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two minutes after the end of the exit delay.
Entry Delay
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the designated entrance door. You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The control 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 control to disarm the system. You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by selecting the “Delay” icon prior to arming the system. This will toggle the system to “Instant”, which can provide greater security while on the premises or while away for extended periods of time. See Arming the System section for procedure. See your installer for delay times programmed for your system.

Select the “Disarm” icon or the “Off” key to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. See the Summary of Audible Notification section for information, which will help you to distinguish between fire and burglary alarm sounds. During Entry Delay or when an Alarm Condition exists, the system will be disarmed as soon as the correct user code is entered on the touch screen. Selecting the Off key is not required. The entry beeps or alarm sound can be silenced by pressing any key however, it will restart in 10 seconds if the correct User Code is not entered. The Ready indicator will light (if no alarms have occurred while armed) and the control will beep once to confirm that the system is disarmed.
**IMPORTANT**
If the LYNX Touch is beeping rapidly upon entering the premises, an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
