System by simply pressing the [STAY] or [EXIT] key. The system must always be
disarmed using a 4 or 6 digit code. The LED keypad includes up to 35 lights and a built-in
electronic sounder. These provide specific information relating to the status of the
security system w hich is described in the booklet. Understanding what the lights and
sounds mean will help you to easily operate your system.
READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL AND, IF POSSIBLE, PRACTICE ON THE KEYPAD
CONTROL WHILE YOUR PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER IS ON SITE.
