Introduction
AdvisorOne (part # AVO-1037) is a wireless, self-contained system used to detect, control and inform of security and life safety
conditions and threats. AdvisorOne uses a proprietary wireless technology to communicate with various types of sensors. The
panel relays sensor status both visually using At-A-Glance icons on the touch screen display and audibly with beeps and verbal
chimes.
• Can be connected to the internet via broadband through an Ethernet connection.
• Is controlled via the integrated touch screen.
Using the AdvisorOne system
Use this guide to quickly begin operating the AdvisorOne security system.
An access code is needed to perform certain system functions. The default master code is 1-2-3-4 when AdvisorOne is shipped
from the factory. The code should be changed after the system is installed (see “User codes” on page 4).
Main screen
The Main screen provides quick access to all system features that allows the user the ability to control the system. See Table 1 on
page 2 for more information on these functions.

To disarm:
1. Press .
2. Enter the code when the keypad screen appears. If an incorrect code is entered, press CLEAR and enter the correct code.
Exit/entry delay
AdvisorOne provides a delay after entering or exiting the premises before the system is armed or disarmed. An exit time restart
feature will recognize when the system is armed, a person leaves the premises and quickly reenters The system will restart the exit
delay to give users the full exit delay again. The restart will only occur once.
Double knock
Double knock (two-trip) refers to a zone needing two sensor trips (one or multiple sensors) to be present to generate an alarm. If
the zone becomes active and would normally trigger an alarm, either the zone needs to remain active for the programmed Double
Knock time or the zone has to return to normal and trigger again within the Double Knock interval before sending an alarm to the
central station.
Fire alarm verification
If this option is off, the panel immediately reports to the central station when a smoke detector goes into alarm.
With this option on, if a single smoke detector goes into alarm, the panel will not report for 60 seconds unless another smoke
detector goes into alarm. If the first smoke detector is cleared of an alarm within the first 60 seconds, no report will be sent to the
central station unless it or a second smoke detector goes into alarm within the panel siren timeout period (5 minutes). Contact the
dealer for more information.

To help prevent a call waiting option on the phone service interfering with an alarm, this option will be turned on if the panel reports
to a central station and the phone system has a call waiting service. Contact the dealer for more information.
Unvacated premises
Unvacated premises is a feature that determines whether the system automatically arms down to Stay (perimeter sensors are
armed. Interior sensors are disarmed) if the system is armed to Away (perimeter and interior sensors are active) without opening or
closing a perimeter door (on), or remains at the armed level chosen (off). This feature does not work from a key fob. Autobypass
must be on for this feature to work. Contact the dealer to see how these options are programmed.
Swinger Shutdown
This setting determines if a sensor or zone will go into alarm twice during an arming period (an active arming level) and will not be
active again until the alarm is canceled (Swinger Shutdown is enabled) or the sensor has not been activated for 8 hours or zone
will always be active and will go into alarm multiple times during an arming period (an active arming level) without canceling the
alarm (Swinger Shutdown is disabled). Contact the dealer for more information.
Note: Swinger Shutdown does not affect Smoke, Fire, Carbon Monoxide and Environmental sensors.
Alarms
The system provides annunciation to indicate an alarm condition. When an alarm is active, the Main screen will display the alarm
status (see Table 1 on page 2).
To cancel an alarm
• To view additional alarm information, press from the Main screen, then press EVENTS.
• To cancel the alarm, press and enter a valid user code.
• “Alarm Aborted” will be spoken and displayed.
• The alarm cancel window is the amount of time the user has to cancel an alarm before it is reported. The amount of time to
cancel an alarm before it is reported to the central station is 15-60 seconds. Contact the dealer for more information.
After alarms are canceled, the system will be disarmed.
Status beeps need to update
The panel sounds status beeps to alert to various system events and conditions as shown in Table 4 below.
A trouble condition will be indicated by a flashing exclamation point over the status shield. Pressing the status shield will display the
condition.

Exterior and interior sirens make three different alarm sounds on the premises, each indicating a different type of alarm. Sirens are
programmed by the installer to time out and stop sounding after a specified time. Consult with your installer to determine if your
system is configured with a communicator delay. A communicator delay will prevent a report to the central station if the control
panel is disarmed within 30-45 seconds after an intrusion alarm is triggered. Note that fire-type alarms are normally reported
without a delay.
Table 5 below describes the siren sounds used by the security system.
Table 5: Siren sounds
Notes:
Alarms will not be transmitted in test mode.
Temporal 3 refers to a continuous pattern of three siren pulses, then off for 1.5 seconds, three siren pulses, then off for 1.5
seconds.
Auxiliary/Emergency alarms have not been evaluated for medical applications by UL and should not be used for medical
emergencies.
Devices that are not UL Listed are not for UL applications. Among these may include unlisted water detection devices,
environmental sensors, key fobs, asset management devices, garage door openers, electric gate, motors etc.
System tests
The system should be tested every week. Test with both AC and Battery connected in USA. In Canada, test with AC and Battery
and once a month with Battery only (ULC requirement).
Sensor test
Sensors should be tested one at a time to make sure they are sending strong signals to the panel. Sensors should be tested at
least once a week.

Emergency planning
Smoke detector placement
Periodically discuss and rehearse emergency plans
to include the following:
• Understand how to use the security system.
• Check with the dealer to make sure smoke
detectors are located on each floor of the
premises.
• 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 an 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 from a cell
phone or neighbor’s phone.
Use the following guidelines when drawing your floor
plan:
• Show all building levels.
• Show exits from each room (two per room are
recommended).
• Show the location of all security system
components.
• Show the location of any fire extinguishers.
tested, the test mode will time out and the panel will return to normal in 15 min.
Communication test
To test communication with the central station:
1. Call the central station and tell the operator that the system will be tested.
2. Arm the system.
3. Test an emergency icon (Fire, Police, or Auxiliary) and trip at least one sensor of each type (fire, intrusion, etc.) to verify that
the appropriate alarms are working correctly. There could be a delay on intrusion devices.
4. When finished testing the system, call the central station to verify that the alarms were received and instruct them to resume
monitoring the system.
Note: If the system is not connected to a central monitoring station, the central station communication test will not be available.
Maintenance & support
This system is intended to be checked by a qualified technician at least once every 3 years. Contact the dealer for battery
replacement needs.
