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, fire, 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.
32 user-unique 4-digit codes to operate the system: The system supports
one “Master User Code” that can assign and maintain the other User Codes.
One of the 32 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 vocabulary
of descriptive words that can be assigned to sensors so each has a unique announcement such as “front door” or “bedroom 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 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 (such as the panic button remote).

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 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.

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.
Refer to the fl oor plan below. It shows a typical residential installation and the various types of wireless sensors and their function.

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.
• The
button will light green when all perimeter sensors are closed. The button will not be
lit if ANY perimeter sensor is open. Open interior sensors do not change this indication.
• The SECURITY button on the display’s Home Screen will light green when all perimeter sensors
are closed. The SECURITY button will be lit orange if ANY perimeter sensor is open. Open interior sensors do not change this indication.
• The ARM button on the display’s Security Screen and Menu Screen will light green when all
perimeter sensors are closed. If any interior sensors are open (or when any motion detector is triggered), a house icon is displayed on the status bar. The 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 doors 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.

Burglary Protection
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.
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. To show only the bypassed sensors, press SHOW BYPASSED ONLY.
4. Press BACK.

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.
Silent Control in Stay Mode
Three options for silencing the beeps and announcements are available when arming or disarming the system in Stay Mode.
• On the Control Panel’s Home and Security Screens, a “Silent Control”
button is shown.
• On the Arming Screen, a SILENT EXIT check box is provided.
• On the the Exit Delay Screen, a SILENCE button is shown.
Selecting any of these options will silence the Control Panel beeps and announcements, and when arming, selecting the option will double the length of the Exit Delay.
11
Arming to Stay Mode
Use Stay Mode to arm the system when anyone will be staying home. Stay Mode normally has an Entry Delay so someone with a User Code can re-enter without causing an alarm.
1. Close all protected perimeter doors and windows before arming.
2. Verify that the
button on the Control Panel is lit green indicating that the system is ready
to arm. The SECURITY button and ARM button on the display will also be green when all sensors are closed.
NOTE: If you desire to arm the system quietly without sounding any announcements,
press the
button before performing the next steps, select the SILENT EXIT check
box on the Arming Screen, or press SILENCE during the Exit Delay.
3. From the Security Screen, or the Menu Screen, press ARM.
• If there are any open perimeter door or window sensors, the Bypass Screen will appear.
Close all the sensors displayed or press BYPASS ALL to force bypass the displayed sensors. NOTE: BYPASSED SENSORS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TRIGGER AN ALARM.
• To bypass sensors, you will need to enter a User Code unless
the installer has set the system for “ Quick Bypass”.
4. On the Arming Screen, the ENTRY DELAY check box option can be used with Stay Mode.
• If no one is expected to re-enter, the system can be armed without an Entry
Delay. All perimeter doors will trigger the alarm instantly. To arm with all exit/ entry perimeter doors as instant, un-check the ENTRY DELAY option button.
5. Press STAY to arm the system.
• To arm the system, you may need to enter a User Code if your
installer has turned off the system’s “ Quick Arming” feature.
6. The system will arm and show the Exit Delay counting down. When the Exit Delay expires, the system is fully armed in the Stay Mode.

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 enter and 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 Control in Away Mode
Three options for silencing the beeps and announcements are available when arming or disarming the system in Away Mode.
• On the Control Panel’s Home and Security Screens, a “Silent Control”
button is shown.
• On the Arming Screen,a SILENT EXIT check box is provided.
• On the the Exit Delay Screen, a SILENCE button is shown.
Selecting any of these options will silence the Control Panel beeps and announcements, and when arming, selecting the option will double the length of the Exit Delay.
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.
Disarming from Stay Mode
The system should be disarmed from Stay Mode before exiting the premises.
1. From the Home Screen, press the SECURITY button. Press for Silent Control.
2. From the Security Screen or the Menu Screen, press DISARM.
3. The Disarm Code Screen will display. The left side of the screen shows any events that have

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 (see Installer Set Options). After the time expires, the siren will stop sounding.
The system limits the number of times a sensor can re-trigger an alarm while the system is armed. The setting is one to six times per sensor, per arming period (see Installer Set Options).
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).
Anytime there are events stored in alarm memory, the Security Screen will display the
button. The number on the button is the number of sensors that triggered during the alarm (remains until acknowledged). Press the
button to view the Alarm Memory Screen.
Optional 2-Way Voice Communications
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, then press and hold the FIRE
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.
Automatic Fire Alarm
If your detectors trigger a fi re emergency alarm before you sense a problem, and the fi re alarm is sounding, follow these steps:
1. If fl ames and/or smoke are present, yell FIRE! to alert anyone else around.
2. Evacuate all occupants from the premises and call your local Fire Department from a safe
location.
- OR -
1. If no fl ames or smoke are apparent, investigate the possible causes of the alarm.
2. Go to the Control Panel and enter your User Code to stop the fi re sounder.
3. Review the alarm memory to determine which sensor(s) caused the alarm.
4. Go to the sensor(s) and look for the reason the sensor tripped.
5. Correct the condition that caused the detector to sense smoke or CO gas.
Silencing a False Fire Alarm
If the fi re alarm is sounding due to a detector sensing burnt food or some other non-emergency condition, follow these steps to stop the alarm:
1. Silence the fi re alarm sounder by entering your User Code.
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.
