The Go!Control Security System

Congratulations on your ownership of a Go!Control Security System! This wireless system offers protection for your property against burglary, protection for yourself and family with 24-hour emergency monitoring, and optionally ﬁ re detection for your home.

The heart of the system is the Control Panel. It receives the wireless radio signals from remote system “sensors” that monitor doors, windows, motion detectors, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and panic buttons. The Control Panel processes these signals and controls the alarm siren. The system can communicate to an alarm monitoring “Central Station” over the regular telephone network and optionally over the cellular telephone network to report violations, alarms, and system status.

The Control Panel is operated using its color touch screen display that shows easy-to-identity buttons and icons. The system can be armed or disarmed directly at the Control Panel, or by using optional key fob remote controls, remotely over the telephone, or over the Internet with Web access (if enabled by your installer). The Control Panel displays helpful information regarding the system and sensor status, system and alarm history, and trouble alerts.

Being fully “supervised”, the Go!Control Security System continuously monitors itself and its sensors. If an issue occurs, such as a low sensor battery, the trouble alert will be displayed and logged by the Control Panel and optionally reported to the Central Monitoring Station. This way, the trouble can be addressed and corrected promptly, maintaining the integrity of the system.

With the system’s built-in Z-Wave home automation capability, you can control your Z-Wave enabled household appliances and door locks from the Control Panel or remotely from a PC and the Internet from anywhere in the world... even through your cell phone! (This is an optional feature, check with your security professional for availability with your system.)

Many insurance companies offer discounts on homeowners and renters policies when a security system is installed. Discount credits vary with different companies and generally increase in savings with an increase in the level of protection. Ask your insurance agent about savings available to you.

System Overview

General Information

This system provides three forms of protection: burglary, ﬁ re, and emergency, depending on the options set by the installer. The system consists of the Control Panel with a color touch screen, wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and wireless smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. In addition, optional remote control key fobs, wireless panic pendants, and wireless keypads may have been provided or installed.

The system monitors all protection “zones” and the system’s status. It will display monitoring information and control the alarm siren. Your system may also have been setup to send alarm and status reports to a Central Monitoring Station and has the capability for 2-way voice communications with the alarm monitoring operator.

Features

Following is a list of standard features and options that can be included in your system. Ask your installer which options are available to you and check the boxes that apply.

✓ STAY and AWAY arming modes. Stay Mode arms the system perimeter only and

is used typically at night when the premises are occupied. Away Mode arms the system perimeter and interior; it’s used when the premises are unoccupied.

✓ Eight user-unique 4-digit codes to operate the system. The system supports one

“Master User Code” that can assign and maintain the other seven User Codes.

✓ One of the eight User Codes functions as a Duress User Code. Controlling the system

with this code gives the appearance of normal operation, but using it secretly sends a “duress” report to the Central Monitoring Station to initiate a silent alarm call for help.

✓ Voice announcements from the Control Panel. The system has a large vocabulary

of descriptive words that can be assigned to sensors so each will have a unique announcement such as “front door” or “baby’s room window” if desired.

✓ Home automation with the built-in Z-Wave controller for remote

controlling Z-Wave enabled home appliances (optional feature).

✓ Alarm history with system event log. Each alarm and system alert is logged

into the system’s memory. These events can be displayed and reviewed at the Control Panel or remotely by the Central Monitoring Station.

✓ Real time clock and calendar shows on the system’s display

and is used to time stamp items in the event log.

❑ 2-way voice communication. After an alarm, the system can automatically connect

with a Central Station operator so they can converse with people in the premises.

❑ Remote control of the system over the telephone.

❑ Remote control of the system using a Web-enabled device through

the Internet (requires GSM cellular radio option).

❑ Three optional 24-hour emergency functions: PANIC, FIRE, and EMERGENCY.

These functions can be activated by buttons on the Control Panel, using wireless sensors, from the wireless keypad, or from portable pendant devices.

System Overview

General Operation

Following are general operational concepts that your system supports. Understanding these concepts will help you to use your security system to it fullest extent.

Sensor Types

The system’s wireless sensors have been assigned to selected “types” (sometimes called “zones” in the alarm industry). The sensor type determines how and when the system will react to a signal from the sensor. Some sensors are armed 24 hours a day, other sensors are only armed when the system is armed.

Fire Protection

If ﬁ re protection wireless smoke detectors have been installed in your system, they are armed 24 hours-a-day. They will sound an alarm when smoke is detected and can report the ﬁ re alarm to the Central Monitoring Station. Refer to the Fire Alarm System section of this manual for important emergency planning and evacuation information.

Burglary Protection

Burglary protection is provided by perimeter and interior sensors. When the system is armed in the Away Mode, both perimeter and interior sensors are armed and can trigger an alarm. When the system is armed in the Stay Mode, only the perimeter sensors are armed and can trigger an alarm.

Both arming modes offer an “Exit Delay” that allows time to leave the premises without triggering the alarm. Upon re-entry, the system offers an “Entry Delay” through certain points of protection that allows you time to disarm the system before an alarm is triggered.

Sensors can be set to sound a chime and/or a voice announcement when they are triggered. So you can monitor your doors and windows while the system is disarmed.

User Codes

The system installer has pre-programmed a Master User Code for your system. This code can be used to control the system as well as assign and change the other seven User Codes. The Master User Code can also access several system setup settings in the User Toolbox.

Alarms

When an alarm occurs, the Control Panel’s siren and an external siren (if installed) will sound for a preset time. During alarms and after disarming, the alarm history button will display all the alarms that have occurred, and which sensors were involved. The alarm history clears the next time the system is armed or can be cleared manually.

Messages

Your security system supports receiving messages from the Central Monitoring Station. The messages can be about system upgrades, additional services, special regional weather alerts, etc.

Trouble Alerts

The system monitors itself for abnormal operating conditions and will alert you if trouble is detected. Trouble conditions can be reported to the Central Monitoring Station.

Burglary Protection

Operating the System

When your system was setup by your installer, wireless sensors were placed to monitor speciﬁ c doors and windows. The installer selected these doors and windows as likely places where an unlawful intrusion might occur and could be detected. Each sensor was programmed to have the system react in a speciﬁ c way.

Some sensor types such as smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, panic buttons, etc. are always active and can trigger an alarm at any time. Other sensors on protected doors and windows are part of the burglary protection part of the system, and can be turned on or off. Turning on the burglary protection part of the security system is called “Arming the System”. The burglary protection part of the system can be armed in two modes: Stay Mode or Away Mode.

Sensor Status

The security system constantly monitors all of the sensors attached to the protected doors and windows in your home or business. The Control Panel knows if each protected door or window is open or closed. The open or closed condition of the protected doors and windows is called the “sensor status”.

For maximum security, all the doors and windows on the premises should be closed when leaving the building. In some cases, such as when using the security system for protection when staying at home, it may be desirable to leave some protected doors or windows open. The system uses “bypasses” to resolve the open door or window conditions. Before the system can be armed, all protected doors and windows must be closed or bypassed. Bypasses and their two types are

explained in detail on the next page.

Checking that All Sensors are Closed

In most cases, you will be arming the security system with all of the sensor-protected doors and windows closed. The Control Panel provides several easy ways to verify that all the sensor-protected doors and windows are closed before arming the system.

perimeter sensors are closed. If any interior sensors are open (or when any motion detector is triggered), a house icon is displayed on the green ARM button. Th e ARM button will be lit orange if ANY perimeter sensor is open.

Viewing Each Sensor’s Status

The Control Panel will also show you which sensor-protected doors and windows are open. Your installer has programmed descriptive names for each sensor-protected door and window. The Control Panel’s color display will show the names of which door and windows are open.

• The top area of the display on the Home, Security, and Menu Screens will list any sensors that are currently open.

• Pressing the STATUS button will also display a list of all open sensors along with general system status and alerts.

Sensor Bypassing

Before the system can be armed, all protected doors and windows must be closed or bypassed. The system uses “bypasses” to resolve open sensors on protected doors or windows before arming the system. When a sensor is bypassed, the system ignores that the door or window is open. There are two types of sensor bypasses available: forced and manual.

In some cases (such as when using the security system for protection when staying at home) it may be desirable to leave some sensor-protected doors or windows open. Temporarily bypassing a sensor for this use is called “force bypassing”. Force bypasses are automatically removed when the

system is disarmed.

Sensor bypassing is also sometimes used when a sensor is requiring service. A sensor’s magnet might be missing, or an external switch contact connected to a sensor might be faulty, causing the sensor to be detected as “open” by the Control Panel. In these conditions, you may need to schedule a service call with your qualiﬁ ed alarm service technician to repair or replace the troubled sensor. If the security system needs to be armed before the sensor can be serviced, the sensor can be “manually bypassed” so the rest of the system can be armed. Depending on programming,

manual bypasses can remain in place until they are manually removed.

☞ NOTE: Bypassed sensors offer no protection and cannot cause an alarm. Use bypass if

you want to arm your system with one or more sensors open and intentionally unprotected.

Force Bypassing Sensors

If any sensors are open when the ARM button is pressed, the Control Panel will display the bypass sensor screen. When the system is disarmed, the force bypassed sensors will be returned to normal.

1. With one or more perimeter sensors open, press ARM from the Security or Menu Screen.

2. Press BYPASS ALL to force bypass the open sensors (including any open interior sensors).

3. Enter a User Code (unless “Quick Bypass” has been set by the installer) to activate the bypass and continue to the Arming Screen.

Force Bypass Sensors Screen

Manual Bypassing or Un-bypassing Sensors

In case one or more perimeter or interior sensors need to be manually bypassed, or have their manual bypass removed, use the following steps:

1. Press MENU, TOOLBOX, then BYPASSED SENSORS.

2. Enter a User Code.

3. Press the individual name of the

sensor(s) to bypass or un-bypass the sensor(s). The bypass symbol will display for the manually bypassed sensors. Bypasses to all listed sensors can be removed by pressing UNBYPASS ALL.

4. Press OK.

Burglary Protection

Stay Mode

Stay Mode is for arming the system when people will be staying on the premises. Stay Mode arms the sensor-protected perimeter doors and windows while not arming the interior motion sensors or other interior doors. This allows the premises to be occupied while the system is partially armed. Stay Mode is used mostly for arming the system during the evening hours after everyone is inside and no one is expected to enter or leave.

When the system is armed in Stay Mode, you can move about the premises without triggering the burglary alarm. All the interior burglary protection is off. But, if a sensor-protected perimeter door or window is opened, an alarm will occur.

Entry Delay in Stay Mode

Certain sensors, such as the front door, can be setup by your installer to have a delay before triggering an alarm. This provides a way for an authorized person returning to enter using a predetermined door and disarm the system before an alarm is triggered. When arming the system in Stay Mode, an “Entry Delay” option check box is shown on the Control Panel’s Arming Screen. Normally this option check box is checked, so the programmed delay doors allow time for disarming the system after the door is opened. Un-checking this option box removes the delayed alarm trigger from all sensorprotected doors programmed for delay, causing those entrances to instantly trigger the alarm if they are opened in Stay Mode.

Quick Exit in Stay Mode

A programmable option, called “Quick Exit” may be displayed on the Security Screen while the system is armed in the Stay Mode. Pressing the Quick Exit button starts a timer to allow someone to exit or enter through a sensor-protected door programmed for delay without having to disarm the entire system. When the delay timer runs out, the system returns to the normal Stay Mode.

The Quick Exit option can be turned on or off by your installer, refer to the “Installer Set Options” section of this manual to see which options have been set for your system.

Away Mode

Away Mode is for arming the system when everyone will be leaving the premises. Away Mode arms all sensor-protected perimeter doors and windows, interior motion sensors, interior glass break sensors, and any other sensor-protected interior doors. The premises must be unoccupied while the system is armed. Away Mode is typically used for arming the system during the daytime hours in a residential installation, and non-business hours in a commercial installation.

When the system is armed in Away Mode, you cannot move about the premises without triggering the burglary alarm (if the system is installed with interior motion detectors). An alarm will also occur if any sensor-protected door or window is opened or glass breakage is detected (if glass breakage detectors are installed in your system).

Exit and Entry Delays in Away Mode

Certain sensors, such as the front door, can be setup by your installer to have a delay before triggering an alarm. This provides a way for an authorized person to exit and reenter the premises without triggering an alarm. The “ Exit Delay” allows time to leave after arming the system. The “ Entry Delay” allows time to disarm the system before an alarm is triggered.

When arming the system in Away Mode, an “Entry Delay” option check box is shown on the Control Panel’s Arming Screen. Normally this option check box is checked, so the programmed delay doors allow time for disarming the system after the door is opened. Un-checking this option box removes the delayed alarm trigger from all sensor-protected doors programmed for delay, causing those entrances to instantly trigger the alarm if they are opened in Away Mode. With the Entry Delay disabled, the system will have to be remotely disarmed with a wireless key fob before entering.

Exit Delay Restart

The Exit Delay Restart* option will extend the Exit Delay one time if you need to re-enter the premises. With the Exit Delay Restart option, re-entering the premises after you have left, but before the Exit Delay timer expires, will restart the Exit Delay timer, giving you the full length of time to leave again. The restart option only works once, each time the system is armed.

Silent Exit in Away Mode

An option for silencing the exit delay beeps is also available when arming the system in Away Mode. On the Control Panel’s Arming Screen, a “Silent Exit” option check box is shown. Checking this option will stop the Control Panel from sounding beeps during the Exit Delay time, and it will double the length of the Exit Delay. The option resets when the system is disarmed.

Quick Exit in Away Mode

A programmable option called “Quick Exit*” may be displayed on the Security Screen while the system is armed in the Away Mode. Pressing the Quick Exit button starts a timer to allow someone to exit or enter through a sensor-protected door programmed for delay without having to disarm the entire system. When the delay timer runs out, the system returns to the normal Away Mode.

☞ NOTE: If interior sensors are installed in the system in certain areas, do not violate

those sensors when using the Quick Exit feature in Away Mode.

Auto Stay Mode

The system may have been programmed by the installer for “Auto Stay Mode*”. If this option is on and the system is armed in Away Mode, if an exit/entry delay sensor is not triggered before the Exit Delay expires (no one left the premises), the system automatically arms in Stay Mode instead of Away Mode.

* These options can be turned on or off by your installer; refer to the “Installer Set Options” section of this manual to see which options have been set for your system.

Disarming the System

To stop the Control Panel from triggering burglary alarms, the system will need to be disarmed. Disarming turns off the burglary detection part of the system for sensors that are not 24-hour sensors. Disarming also stops any type of alarm in process.

The system should be disarmed from Stay Mode before exiting the premises. The system should be disarmed from Away Mode before or while entering the premises. When disarming from the Control Panel or wireless keypad, you will need to enter a valid User Code. A wireless key fob can also be used to disarm the system. Entering a User Code is not required when disarming with a wireless key fob.

An important feature of the Control Panel is its ability to warn you if an alarm has occurred while you were away. If an alarm was triggered while the system was armed, the alarm siren will run for a preset length of time then stop. When you enter to disarm the system, instead of sounding the normal Entry Delay beeps, the Control Panel will sound repeated fast beeps to warn you that alarm has occurred while you were away.

WARNING: WHEN ENTERING THE PREMISES TO DISARM THE SYSTEM, IF YOU HEAR FAST REPEATED BEEPS INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL ENTRY DELAY BEEPS, USE EXTREME CAUTION!!! AN INTRUDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT INSIDE THE BUILDING!!! WAIT OUTSIDE AND USE A CELL PHONE TO CALL A FRIEND, NEIGHBOR, OR LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR ASSISTANCE.

Burglary Protection

If a Burglary Alarm Occurs

If an armed sensor is tripped while the system is armed in the Stay or Away Mode, an alarm will occur and the siren will sound. Delayed sensors will start the Entry Delay to allow time to disarm

the system. Instant sensors trigger the alarm right away. Most sensors will trigger the alarm siren, some sensors may be set to trigger a silent alarm without sounding the siren.

Burglary Alarm Siren

If there is a burglary alarm tripped while the system is armed, the Control Panel will sound the alarm siren for a preset time (the time can be changed; see the Installer Set Options section of this manual). After the time expires, the siren will stop sounding. The system can also be set by the installer to allow one or two alarm cycles per sensor, per arming period. (Siren sounds are steady for burglary, intermittent horn for ﬁ re, and pulsed for CO detection.)

Alarm Memory

If an alarm has occurred while the system was armed, the Disarm Screen will show the time and date of the alarm and the sensor(s) that triggered the alarm.

After the system is disarmed, the Alarm Memory screen will be displayed. The Alarm Memory Screen shows the sensor(s) that have caused the alarm. If more than one sensor has been triggered, the display will show the order that alarms occurred. The alarm memory will automatically clear the next time the system is armed. You can also check the CLEAR ALARM HISTORY button and press OK to manually clear the alarm memory (24-hour ﬁ re and CO sensors that are still violated will remain in alarm memory).

2-way voice communications provides a method for alarm veriﬁ cation and can provide emergency assistance. The Control Panel contains a built-in microphone that can monitor sounds around the area of the Control Panel. The built-in microphone and speaker allows 2-way voice communications with a Central Station operator after an alarm. The operator can converse with people in the premises through the Control Panel’s speaker and microphone.

Your installer can set the system to use 2-way voice communications after an alarm and/or after a panic alarm is triggered.

✓ NOTE: If a panic alarm or sensor is set for a silent alarm, the operator will only be able

to listen and not be able to talk. This is for your protection.

Fire Protection

Fire Alarm System

Your system may be installed with smoke detectors and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors as part of an overall ﬁ re and gas protection system. The ﬁ re protection part of the security system is active 24 hours-a-day, offering continuous protection.

In the event of a ﬁ re or poisonous CO gas emergency, the installed smoke or carbon monoxide detector will automatically activate your security system. A loud, intermittent horn will sound from the Control Panel, and the external sounder will produce an intermittent siren (if an external sounder has been installed). The ﬁ re sounder will continue until the ﬁ re horn timer expires or until a User Code is entered.

Manual Fire Alarm

If you become aware of a ﬁ re emergency before your detectors sense the problem follow these important steps:

1. Yell FIRE! to alert anyone else around.

2. Go the Control Panel and press the white lighted

button for at least two seconds. The ﬁ re alarm can also be triggered using the FIRE button on a wireless keypad. THE FIRE ALARM WILL SOUND.

3. Evacuate all occupants from the premises and call your local Fire Department from a safe location.

2. Review the alarm memory to determine which sensor(s) caused the alarm.

3. If the alarm restarts, there may still be smoke in the detector’s sensor. Enter your User Code again

to stop the alarm. Fan the detector for 30 seconds to clear the detector’s sensor chamber.

4. After the problem has been corrected, check the CLEAR ALARM HISTORY button on the

Alarm History Screen and press OK. (Fire & CO sensors that are still violated cannot be

cleared from alarm history until the device returns to normal operation. Carefully inspect the premises for danger if ﬁ re or CO sensors remain in alarm.)

Fire Protection

This equipment should be installed in accordance with Chapter 2 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269). Printed information describing proper installation, operation, testing, maintenance, evacuation planning, and repair service is to be provided with this equipment.

Recommended Smoke Detector Locations

The National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) Standard #72 recommends the following placement for smoke detectors:

✓ Early warning ﬁ re detection is best achieved by the installation of ﬁ re detection equipment

in all rooms and areas of the household. The equipment should be installed as follows:

• A smoke detector installed outside each separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unﬁ nished attics.

• In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install smoke detectors in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), ﬁ nished attics, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, and attached garages.

Fire Protection

Emergency Evacuation Plan

To establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of ﬁ re, the following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:

1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so that they can be heard by

all occupants.

2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should lead to the door

that permits normal exit from the building. The other should be an alternate escape, such as a window, should your path to that door be impassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows if there is a long drop to the ground.

3. Sketch a ﬂ oor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs, and rooftops that can be used

to escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep these route free from obstructions and post copies of the escape routes in every room.

4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This will prevent deadly smoke

from entering while you escape.

5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route. If the door is cool, open it

cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door shut if smoke or heat rushes in.

6. When smoke is present, crawl on the ground. Do not walk upright, since smoke rises and may

overcome you. Clearer air is near the ﬂ oor.

7. Escape quickly; don’t panic.

8. Establish a place outdoors, away from your house, where everyone can meet and then take

steps to contact the authorities and account for those missing. Choose someone to assure that nobody returns to the house — many die going back.

Emergency Functions

24-Hour Emergency Buttons

Three 24-hour emergency functions are available: PANIC, FIRE, and EMERGENCY. These functions can be activated by buttons on the Control Panel. The emergency functions can also be activated using wireless sensors, from the wireless keypad, or from portable pendant devices.

The system supports two different Entry Delays. Entry Delay #1 is for your primary entrance door; Entry Delay #2 is for a secondary entrance (such as a garage door) and is usually set longer to give you time to get to the keypad and disarm the system.

ENTRY DELAY #1

❑ 30 Seconds (regular setting)

_________ Seconds For _______________ Door

ENTRY DELAY #2

❑ 45 Seconds (regular setting)

_________ Seconds For _______________ Door

24-Hour Emergency Functions

Three 24-hour emergency functions: PANIC, FIRE, and EMERGENCY can be activated by buttons on the Control Panel. The installer can set which emergency buttons on the Control Panel are active.

ACTIVE CONTROL PANEL EMERGENCY BUTTONS

❑ Audible Panic ❑ Silent Panic ❑ Fire ❑ Emergency

Quick Arming

Quick Arming allows you to arm your system without having to enter a User Code. When you press the STAY or AWAY button, the system will start to arm without requesting a User Code.

QUICK ARMING

❑ OFF ❑ ON (regular setting)

Quick Bypass

Normally sensors that are open at the time the system is armed will require force bypassing by entering your User Code. The system can be set so a User Code is not required to bypass open sensors when the system is armed.

QUICK BYPASS

❑ OFF (regular setting) ❑ ON

Quick Exit

The Quick Exit option allows you to start the Exit Delay while the system is armed. This allows you to leave the premises without having to disarm and rearm the system. When the Quick Exit option is on, a QUICK EXIT button will display on the security screen. Press the button to start the Exit Delay. After Quick Exit, the system will fully re-arm in the mode that it was in before (Stay or Away Mode).

QUICK EXIT

❑ OFF ❑ ON (regular setting)

Auto Un-bypass

Normally, sensors manually bypassed with the User Toolbox will automatically have their bypasses removed when the system is disarmed. The system can be set so sensors that have been manually bypassed will stay bypassed until the bypass is manually removed.

AUTO UN-BYPASS

❑ OFF ❑ ON (regular setting)

Auto Stay

The Auto Stay option will change the arming mode if no one exits after arming the system in Away Mode. When the system is armed in the Away Mode the Exit Delay will begin. With the Auto Stay option on, if a designated exit/entry door does not open and close during the Exit Delay, the system will arm in the Stay Mode instead of the Away Mode.

AUTO STAY

❑ OFF ❑ ON (regular setting)

Installer Set Options

Key Fob Arm/Disarm Sound

The system can be set so when it’s armed or disarmed by a wireless key fob, a beep will sound through the internal and external sounders to indicate that the key fob’s signal was received. This helps in installations where the Control Panel is not visible or there are no other system status indications at the key fob’s location.

KEY FOB ARM/DISARM SOUND

❑ OFF (regular setting) ❑ ON

Key Fob Disarm After Alarm Sound

The system can be set so when it’s disarmed with a wireless key fob after an alarm has occurred, a special series of beeps will sound through the internal and external sounders. This option serves as a safety alert to warn you to approach the premises with caution as an intruder may still be present.

KEY FOB DISARM AFTER ALARM SOUND

❑ OFF (regular setting) ❑ ON

★ IMPORTANT: If you return to the premises and hear the special beeps when disarming

with the key fob, USE CAUTION! The special beeps indicate that an alarm has occurred while you were gone. AN INTRUDER MAY STILL BE ON THE PREMISES. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY AND CONTACT THE POLICE FROM A SAFE LOCATION.

Exit Delay Restart

The Exit Delay Restart option will extend the Exit Delay one time if you need to re-enter the premises. When the system is armed in the Away Mode or Stay Mode, the Exit Delay gives you time to leave without setting off the alarm. With the Exit Delay Restart option, re-entering the premises after you have left, but before the Exit Delay timer expires, will restart the Exit Delay timer, giving you the full length of time to leave again. The restart option only works once, each time the system is armed.

EXIT DELAY RESTART

❑ ON (regular setting) ❑ OFF

Cancel Time

To limit responses to false alarms, a “cancel” message will be sent to the Central Monitoring Station if the system is disarmed within a preset period of time after an alarm is triggered. The alarm report is always sent, but it will be followed by a cancel report if you disarm the system within the preset time.

This option helps the Central Monitoring Station to determine whether you accidently caused the alarm or if the alarm report was caused by an intruder. It also lets the Central Station know that you have returned to the premises. Even if a cancel message is sent, the Central Station will verify the alarm and possibly dispatch help. The cancel message may be processed by the Central Station at a later time depending on system programming.

CANCEL TIME

❑ 5 Minutes (regular setting)

_________ Minutes

Installer Set Options

Cancel Display

A “cancel” message will be sent to the Central Monitoring Station if the system is disarmed within a preset period of time after an alarm is triggered. The system can be set to display that a cancel report was sent, or for higher security, the system can be set not to display the cancel message.

CANCEL DISPLAY

❑ ON (regular setting) ❑ OFF

Dialer Delay

If an alarm occurs, the system will delay dialing for a short time to allow you to disarm the system in case the alarm was accidentally tripped. The dialer delay reduces nuisance trafﬁ c to the Central Monitoring Station and can prevent receiving ﬁ nes that many cities impose when police respond to a false alarm. Your installer also can program the system for no dialer delay.

✓ NOTE: The dialer delay is also known as the “abort window”. It gives you time to

disarm, but doesn’t delay the siren from sounding. Disarming during the abort window can display a cancel message depending on the Cancel Display setting (see above).

DIALER DELAY

❑ 30 Seconds (regular setting)

_________ Seconds

2-Way Voice

The system can connect with a Central Station operator so they can converse with people in the premises after an alarm. The 2-way voice option allows communication to and from the Control Panel and the Central Station. 2-way voice communications will occur after the system has made its alarm report. Your installer sets which sensors can trigger the 2-way voice option.

2-WAY VOICE

❑ OFF ❑ ON (regular setting)

Telephone Remote Control Answer

Your installer selects whether your system supports the remote telephone option or not. If the telephone remote control answer option is turned on, the system will require calling it twice within 30 seconds for the Control Panel to answer the call. See the “Remote Control by Telephone” section of this manual.

Regulatory Information

Wireless Product Notice

Radio controls provide a reliable communications link and ﬁ ll an important need in portable wireless signaling; however, there are some limitations which must be observed.

• For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.

• A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.

• Changes or modiﬁ cations to the device may void FCC compliance.

• Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.

• A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.

FCC Part 15 Notice

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B computing device in accordance with Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Relocate the Console away from the TV/radio receiver.

• Plug the Console into a different wall outlet so that the Console is on a different branch circuit.

• Re-orient the TV/radio antenna.

• If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions.

FCC Telephone Rules and Regulations

The FCC requires that this alarm dialer system not make more than 15 repetitive dialing attempts to a single telephone number. There are no limitations when the calls are made sequentially to two or more alternative numbers, or when these calls are spaced 10 minutes apart to a single number. The FCC Rules and Regulations do not specify the re-attempt period as this can vary for speciﬁ c applications. When setting this period, take into consideration local, interstate, foreign and special network call completion characteristics, network processing time, a sufﬁ cient number of rings and busy/don’t answer modes.

Regulatory Information

FCC Part 68 Notice

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and/or the requirements adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). On the rear of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a telephone products identiﬁ er in the form FCC ID: EF4 ... or US: EF4 ... and ringer equivalence number (REN). If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company.

A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements as adopted by the ACTA. If provided, a compliant telephone cord and modular plug is included with this product. The jacks and plugs are designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.

A ringer equivalence number code (REN) is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed ﬁ ve (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identiﬁ er that has the format US: AAAEQ##TXXX. The digits represented by the ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to ﬁ le a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make the necessary modiﬁ cations in order to maintain uninterrupted service.

FCC Part 68 Notice (continued)

Alarm dialing equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other equipment (telephone(s), answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use. To do so, alarm dialing equipment must be connected to a properly installed RJ31X that is electrically in series with and ahead of all other equipment attached to the same telephone line. Proper installation is depicted in the ﬁ gure on the previous page. If you have any questions concerning these instructions, you should consult your telephone company or a qualiﬁ ed installer about installing the RJ31X jack and alarm dialing equipment for you.

Alarm Installation Notes to Installer

For products equipped with an RJ31X jack the line seize feature shall be veriﬁ ed. Be certain the local telephone and incoming line connections are not reversed. These lines are not reversed if the alarm dialer can communicate with the central station.

New Services Notes to User

The installation and/or monitoring company shall be notiﬁ ed if new telephone service, e.g. DSL, is installed.

Industry Canada Notice (for Canadian users)

The Industry Canada (IC) label identiﬁ es certiﬁ ed equipment. This certiﬁ cation means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The IC does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certiﬁ ed connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certiﬁ ed equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load Number of all the devices does not exceed 100.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the telephone line. Too many devices may result in some devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN’s should not exceed ﬁ ve (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, contact the telecommunications company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.

Refer to the equipment label for the unit’s load number or REN number

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.

Important Power Supply Notice

The Control Panel is powered by a plug-in power supply. In case the power supply becomes unplugged, be sure to plug the power supply into an un-switched receptacle. Do not connect the power supply to a receptacle controlled by a switch.

Important Notice

Alarm System Limitations

This security system can not offer guaranteed protection against burglary, ﬁ re, or other emergencies. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:

• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.

• Intrusion detectors (sensors) will not work without power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however brieﬂ y.

• Signals sent by wireless sensors may be blocked or reﬂ ected by metal before they reach the alarm Control Panel, even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test. Blockage can occur if a metal object has been moved into the sensor’s signal path.

• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.

• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential ﬁ re deaths in the United States, they may not activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all ﬁ res, according to data published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this system may not work are where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense ﬁ res that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a ﬁ re on another level of a residence or building. A second ﬂ oor detector, for example, may not sense a ﬁ rst ﬂ oor or basement ﬁ re. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of ﬁ re every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about ﬁ res caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of ﬂ ammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson. Depending upon the nature of the ﬁ re and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufﬁ cient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.

• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is mufﬂ ed from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing trafﬁ c. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or awaken deep sleepers.

• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.

• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufﬁ cient time to protect themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.

• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as long as ten years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or ﬁ re occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure the sensors are working properly.

Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance. Homeowners, property owners, and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure their lives and property.
