About Your Security System
Your Partner Products security equipment has been designed to provide you with the greatest possible
flexibility and convenience. Read this manual carefully and have your installer instruct you on your
system's operation and on which features have been implemented in your system. All users of this
system should be equally instructed in its use. Fill out the “System Information” page with all of you
zone information and access codes and store this manual in a safe place for future reference.
Fire Detection
This equipment is capable of monitoring fire detection devices such as smoke detectors and providing
a warning if a fire condition is detected. Good fire detection depends on having adequate number of
detectors placed in appropriate locations. This equipment should be installed in accordance with
NFPA 72 (N.F.P.A., Batterymarch Park, Quincey MA 02269). Carefully review the Family Escape
Planning guidelines in this manual.
NOTE: Your installer must enable the fire detection portion of this equipment before it becomes
functional.
Testing
To insure that your system continues to function as intended, you must test your system weekly. Please
refer to “Testing Your System” on page 12 of this manual. If your system does not function properly, call
your installing company for service.
Monitoring
This system is capable of transmitting alarms, troubles and emergency information over telephone lines
to a monitoring station. If you inadvertently initiate an alarm, immediately call the monitoring station to
prevent an unnecessary response.
NOTE: The monitoring function must be enabled by the installer before it becomes functional.
General System Operation
Your security system is made up of a Partner Products control panel, one or more keypads and various
sensors and detectors. The control panel will be mounted out of the way in a utility closet or in a basement.
The metal cabinet contains the system electronics, fuses and stand-by battery. There is normally no reason
for anyone but the installer or service professional to have access to the control panel.
All the keypads have an audible indicator and command entry keys. The LED keypads have a group of
zone and system status lights. The LCD keypad has an alphanumeric liquid crystal display (LCD).
The keypad is used to send commands to the system and to display the current system status. The
keypad(s) will be mounted in a convenient location inside the protected premises close to the entry/exit
door(s).
The security system has several zones of area protection and each of these zones will be connected to
one or more sensors (motion detectors, glassbreak detectors, door contacts, etc.). A sensor in alarm
will be indicated by zone lights 1 through 6 flashing on a LED keypad or by written messages on the
LCD keypad.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and – if included –
your monitoring station of an emergency situation. Security systems are generally very reliable
but they may not work under all conditions and they are not a substitute for prudent security
practices or life and property insurance. Your security system should be installed and serviced by
qualified security professionals who should instruct you on the level of protection that has been
provided and on system operations.

• If opening or using the exit is too difficult for children, the elderly or handicapped, plans for rescue
should be developed. This includes making sure that those who are to perform the rescue can
promptly hear the fire warning signal.
• If the exit is above the ground level, an approved fire ladder or rope should be provided as well as
training in its use.
• Exits on the ground level should be kept clear. Be sure to remove snow from exterior patio doors
in winter; outdoor furniture or equipment should not block exits.
• Each person should know of a predetermined assembly point where everyone can be accounted
for i.e.: across the street or at a neighbour's house. Once everyone is out of the building, call the
Fire Department.
• A good plan emphasizes quick escape. Do not investigate or attempt to fight the fire, and do not
gather belongings or pets as this wastes valuable time. Once outside, do not re-enter the house.
Wait for the fire department.
• Write the fire escape plan down and rehearse it frequently so that should an emergency arise,
everyone will know what to do. Revise the plan as conditions change, such as the number of
people in the home, or if there are changes to the building's construction.
• Make sure your fire warning system is operational by conducting weekly tests (see “Fire Alarm
Operation” on page 13). If you are unsure about system operation, contact your installing dealer.
• We recommend that you contact your local fire department and request further information on fire
safety and escape planning. If available, have your local fire prevention officer conduct an inhouse fire safety inspection.

Maintenance
With normal use, the system requires minimum maintenance. The following points should be observed.
1.Do not wash the security station with a wet cloth. Light dusting with a slightly moistened cloth should
remove normal accumulations of dust.
2.The battery/ bell test is designed to determine battery condition. We recommended, however, that
the stand-by batteries be replaced every three years.
3.For other system devices such as smoke detectors, passive infrared, ultrasonic or microwave motion
detectors or glassbreak detectors, consult the respective manufacturer’s literature for testing and
maintenance.

NOTE: If you suspect that a fire alarm has transmitted and that there is no fire condition, call the
monitoring station to avoid an unnecessary response.
If a fire condition is apparent, follow your
evacuation plan immediately. If the alarm sounds at night, evacuate immediately.
NOTE: The description above may not be applicable depending on how your installer has
programmed the fire alarm operations on your system. Ask your installer for more information
regarding your system's operation.
Household Fire Safety Audit
Most fires occur in the home. To minimize this danger, we recommend that a household fire safety
audit be conducted and a fire escape plan be developed.
1. Are all electrical appliances and outlets in a safe condition? Check for frayed cords, overloaded
lighting circuits, etc. If you are uncertain about the condition of your electrical appliances or
household service, have a professional evaluate these units.
2. Are all flammable liquids stored safely in closed containers in a well ventilated cool area? Cleaning
with flammable liquids should be avoided.
3. Are fire hazardous materials (matches) well out of reach of children?
4. Are furnaces and wood burning appliances properly installed, clean and in good working order?
Have a professional evaluate these appliances.
Fire Escape Planning
There is often very little time between the detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly. It is thus
very important that a family escape plan be developed and rehearsed.
1. Every family member should participate in developing the escape plan.
2. Study the possible escape routes from each location within the house. Since many fires occur at
night, special attention should be given to the escape routes from sleeping quarters.
3. Escape from a bedroom must be possible without opening the interior door.
Consider the following when making your escape plans:
• Make sure that all perimeter doors and windows are easily opened. Ensure that they are not
painted shut, and that their locking mechanisms operate smoothly.

Access Codes
Access Codes are used to arm and disarm the system. There are six access codes available: one
Master Code and five access codes.
Only the Master Code can be used to program additional security codes and to change other system
features as well as to arm and disarm the security system. The Master Code will be supplied to you by
your installer. All keypad entries are made by pressing one key at a time.
All access codes can be programmed by following the procedure outlined in “Programming Security
Codes” on page 6.
NOTE: An access code can be a four or six digit number depending on how your installer has
programmed your system. Ask your installer for more information regarding access codes.
Arming the System
Arming from an LED Keypad:
If the Ready light is ON, the system is ready for arming. If the Ready light is OFF, check to see that all
doors and windows are closed and that motion is stopped in areas covered by motion detectors. The
system cannot be armed unless the Ready light is ON indicating that all zones are closed and the
system is in the Ready state.
Enter your access code. As each digit is entered, the keypad sounder will beep. If the access code
was entered incorrectly, the keypad buzzer will sound steadily for two seconds. If this occurs, press the
[#] key and re-enter your access code. If the correct access code is entered, the keypad sounder will
beep quickly and the Armed light will come ON. Exit the premises through the door indicated by your
installer as the Exit/Entry door.
The panel will provide an exit delay period, indicated by keypad beeps, for you to exit the premises
without causing an alarm. At the end of the exit delay period, all keypad lights, except the Armed light,
will turn OFF and the system will be armed. The exit delay time can be changed by your installer.
