INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a
new Freedom Garage Door Security System. This revolutionary new concept in
residential security makes using your
system easier than ever before possible,
because the system uses its computerized
control panel to continually monitor the
status of your garage door. It actually
anticipates what command it should expect from you next--simply requiring just
one button to press to effortlessly operate
your security system, whether you’re going, returning or staying in for the night.
Now everyone in your family, young and
1 Test your siren and central station communicator:
Hold Down the BYPASS button for 4 seconds (until the
Touchpad beeps). The system will generate a test
report to central station and two momentary chirps of
the siren.
old alike, will enjoy the true peace-ofmind you would expect from a quality,
state-of-the-art NAPCO Security System,
without the fuss of remembering confusing numerical codes to operate it.
Simplicity and convenience begin with
your System’s one-touch STAY or AWAY
buttons, then just open or close the garage door as usual! Day in and day out,
that’s all there is to it.
This booklet contains important information about the operation of your
NAPCO Freedom Security System.

IMPORTANT - TEST YOUR SYSTEM WEEKLY
From a Ready Condition (Disarmed State)
• If the siren does not sound or sounds week, call for service.
• If the system indicates a low battery system trouble (trouble light TBL
flashing 2 times), call for service.
• If the system indicates a communication failure system trouble (TBL
flashing 3 times), call for service. (The communication failure system
trouble may take a few minutes to appear.)

handy reference. Because your system
is customized for your home and lifestyle,
you may find subjects mentioned here,
that do not apply to your system. Rest
assured your security system has been
configured by your Security Professional
to best suit you and the system itself has
been meticulously designed and engineered to the highest industry standards.
Please test your system at least once a
week as described below.
2 Test your motion sensors and other protective devices:
Hold Down the BYPASS button for 8 seconds (until the second hold-down
beep).
• Walk through the areas protected by motion sensors. The Touchpad will
beep when the zone is violated and again when the zone is restored.
• Open and close all protected doors and windows and listen for the cor-
responding Touchpad beeps.
After testing the protective devices, the Touchpad ARMED indicator will
flash out the zone number of all zones which have been activated.
Press the SILENCE button to clear the display and end the test.
If any devices fail to respond when activated or register on the Touchpad
display as described above, call for service.

GARAGE TOUCHPAD INDICATORS
The green READY light shows the status of the zones in your system:
ON indicates that all zones are secure and the system is ready to be armed.
FLASHING indicates that at least one zone is open. To determine the open zone, count the
number of flashes and refer to the zone list on your security panel.
OFF indicates that the optional second deadbolt is not locked. If there are two deadbolts in
the system, the other deadbolt must be locked before the system can be armed.
The red ARMED light ON indicates that the system is armed.
BLINKING with the siren sounding indicates that the system is in alarm.
BLINKING with no siren indicates Alarm Memory (the alarm has been silenced or timed
out). To determine the zone in alarm, count the number of flashes and refer to the zone list
on your security panel. Press SILENCE to clear the alarm memory. (see page 13)
The yellow STAY light ON indicates that the system is armed in the STAY mode, allowing
free movement throughout the premises, while maintaining perimeter protection.
The red FIRE light will flash to indicate that the system is in a Fire Alarm Condition*. If a fire
is in progress, evacuate the premises immediately!
Note: This feature may not apply to your system. Consult your installer to determine if your system includes fire protection.
*
The yellow trouble TBL light will light and the Touchpad sounder will pulse to indicate that a
system trouble is present. If zone(s) have been bypassed, TBL will light steadily. (See
SYSTEM TROUBLE ERROR CODES, Page 17).
The green AC Light ON indicates that AC Power is present.

Check the Garage Touchpad indicators. The green READY light should be ON-STEADY, indicating
that the system is ready to arm.
• If the green READY light is BLINKING, this indicates that a zone is faulted. The READY light is blinking out the zone
number of the open zone. Count the flashes and look at your zone list to see which zone is open and secure it (close
the door or window, etc.). If you cannot immediately secure the zone, it may be bypassed (see page 7).
• If the green READY light is OFF, the optional second deadbolt is not locked. If there are two deadbolts in the system,
the other deadbolt must be locked before the system can be armed. Go to the other deadbolt location and lock it.
Press the AWAY button on the Touchpad.
If you change your mind after pressing AWAY, press SILENCE to clear arming.
The ARMED indicator will begin to flash, indicating that you have up to 3 minutes to exit through the
garage and close the door.
Open the garage door and exit within 3 minutes. (Note: See page 13 if your garage door motor fails).
When the garage door closes (either by pressing A1 or A2 on your Keyfob or with your standard garage
door opener remote control), the Garage Touchpad will give one chirp to indicate the system has armed.
If the garage door has not been closed within 3 minutes of pressing AWAY , the system will revert
back to a disarmed state.
If the system detects movement inside the premises within 3 minutes of arming, it will automati-
cally revert to Stay mode, providing perimeter protection with the interior protection (motion sensors) turned off. (See ARMING WHEN STAYING HOME - page 8).
BYPASSING FAULTED ZONES
If you are trying to arm with a faulted zone or zones, the green READY light will be blinking out the number of the faulted
zones. If you cannot repair the zone(s), they may be temporarily removed from the system, or bypassed, using the following procedure:

Press the BYPASS button.
The Garage Touchpad will beep and the yellow Trouble indicator will light ON STEADY.
Press either the STAY or AWAY button.
If arming AWAY, open the garage door and exit. (Note: See page 13 if your garage door mo-
tor fails).
The system will arm with the faulted zones bypassed.
When the garage door closes, the Garage Touchpad will give one chirp to indicate the system has
armed.
Warning: Bypassed zones are unprotected. If a faulted zone cannot be secured, have the
system checked as soon as possible.

ARMING WHEN STAYING HOME
Arming in the Stay mode allows you to remain home with the perimeter protection active and the interior protection off, so
that you may move freely about the premises.

If the garage door has not been closed within 3 minutes of pressing STAY, the system will re-
vert back to a disarmed state. (Note: See page 13 if your garage door motor fails).
The STAY indicator will stop flashing and light steady, indicating the system is armed in the Stay mode.
