ARTITIONED SYSTEM
User Access Code
Your installer can design your system to recognize up to four
separate protected areas. A separated system is called a
Partitioned System, which can be useful in situations where
shared security systems are more practical. For example, a
company t hat has both an office ar ea and a warehouse area can
arm and d isarm each ar ea separately a nd control the a ccess to
each area. Therefore, one person may have access to only one
area, whereas another person may have access to all areas.
Access to the areas is determined by the
User Acce ss Code
.
.
3.6 A
REA STATUS DISPLAY
In Area Status Display you will be able to see the status of the
areas in a

4.0 ARMING
When the system is armed, the alarm system will resp ond to any
breach in the zones according to the zone’s programming. For
example, if someone opens a window that is armed, the alarm
system will trigger the alarm and can alert your Security Company .
4.1 E
XIT DELAY TIMER
When you arm the system, it will start the Exit Delay Timer to
provide you with enough time to exit the protected area before
the system is armed. The

The timer can be assigned different time limits and the keypad
can be programmed to display the time remaining and/or beep
while the time elapses on the timer. Discuss these options with
your installer.

TAY ARMING
Stay Arming will partially arm your system to permit you to remain in
the protected area. Based on your instructions, your installer will
program specific zones as Stay Zones. These zones will not arm
when you Stay Arm. For example, you can arm your doors and
windows at home without arming the motion detectors so you will be
protected while you sleep. Only

IRE SAFETY TIPS
How should you prepare in case of a fire in your home or business?
1) Remind everyone to escape first, then call for help.
2) Develop a f ire escape p lan and designate a m eeting pl ace outsi de.
3) Practice the escape plan freq uently.
4) Plan two ways to escape from every room, if possi bl e.
5) Practice feeling the way out with eyes closed.
6) Tell everyone
never
to stand up during a fire, al ways crawl under
the smoke and keep mouths covered.
7) Instruct everyone never to return to a burning building for any
reason; it may cost them their life.
8) Check smoke alarms regularly; working smoke alarms dramatically
increase everyone's chances of surviving a fire.

INIMIZING
OME FIRE HAZARDS
H
How can you avoi d th e thre e most common caus es of fi res at home ?
1) Never leave cooking food unattended. It's also the leading cause
of fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended
cooking and human error , rather than mechanical failure.
2) Stay alert when smoking. Careless smoki ng is the leading c ause of fire
deaths. Smoke detectors and smolder-resistant bedding and
upholstered f urniture are signi ficant fire det errents.
3) Maintain your heating system. Heating is the second leading
cause of r esidential f ires. Howeve r, h eating fires are a larger
problem in single family homes than in apartments. Unlike
apartments, the heating systems in single family homes are
often not professionally maint ai ned.

Household fires are especially dangerous at night. Fires produce
smoke and deadly gases that can overcome occupants while they
sleep. To warn against fire, smoke detectors should be installed
outside each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of
the bedr ooms and on each addit i onal story of the f am i l y l i ving unit,
