Important Messages to the Owner:
In the following parag raphs there may be some terminology th at you are not famil iar with. Reread thi s section after you fa miliarize
yourself with your security system.
Arming Your System with Doors or Windows Open:
Any sensors which are open when the system is armed will be bypassed
after the exit dela y has ex pired. This m eans they wi ll not be prot ecting your h ome. If you wish to bypas s a s ensor a fter yo u ha ve
armed your system , you must first disarm the syste m, then open the door or wi ndow which yo u want byp assed. You r system wi ll
tell you if a protected door or window is open when you arm the system. If your system includes 24-hour protection sensors on
items such as gun or j ew el ry cas e s , y ou mu st do an additional disarm called subdisarm b efo re a cc es sing these areas to avoi d
causing an alarm. The master acc ess code and pa nic code can subdisarm. Wh en the system is disarmed, us ing the Cont rol Panel or the Remote H andhel d Touc hpad, enter th e mas ter acces s cod e or pa nic c ode to subdi sarm th e sys tem. The Contr ol Pa nel
is subdisarmed when the Disarm button is flashing. If the panic code was used, an alarm will be reported to the central station.
CAUTION! If you use the Control Panel to arm your security system when leaving your home, you need to be aware of the following: You need to exit before the end of the delay peri od or an alarm wil l sound .
Remember, when y ou arm y ou will hear 2, 3,
or 4 beeps at the beginnin g of the ex it delay (see the ta ble “Pane l Beeps ” on pag e 5 of this manual to determin e the mea ning of
control panel/system beeps). At the end of the exit delay, the system beeps 2, 3, or 4 additional beeps. If you exit at that time
(after the exit delay), your system assumes you are now returning to your home. The system is now counting down the entry
delay time and will expect you to disarm the system within the entry delay time or it will alarm.
Something may have happened while you were away! If you enter your home and controlled lights that are normally off are
on and/or you hear alarm sirens, an intruder may be inside or another emergency may have occurred. Leave immediately, and
call for non-medical emergency help.
Canceling Accidenta l Alarms : You have up to 120 sec onds (programmab le by the ins talle r) after caus ing an accid ental al arm to
disarm your securit y syste m. See y our in stalle r to det ermine this a mount of tim e. If th e progra mmed seco nds ha ve pass ed, yo u
must call the central monitoring station to cancel the alarm.
Notices for UL-Listed Installations:
• This system is suitable for Grade A household burglary applications.
• The Freeze Sensor, Glass Guard and Shock Sensors are not UL Listed.
• The garage door opening feature used with this system has not been evaluated by UL.

Introduction to Your System
Your security system uses wireless technology to warn your
family about intrusion and fire. It may also be used to control
lights and appliances within your home.
The system is designed to be monitored and/or to send messages to a numeric pager.
The security system uses devices called sensors which use
radio waves to communicate alarms to the Control Panel.
The system is supervised, meaning that the Control Panel
checks the status of each sensor to detect problems. If the
Control Panel detect s tr oub le i t w il l n oti fy y ou with beeps and
indicator lights on the Control Panel itself.
Typical Security System Components
A typical security system ins tal lation consists of the following
devices:
Control Panel
The Control Panel is us ed to ope rate an d program your security system. It commu ni cat es to yo u through panel voice me ssages, panel beeps, and by lighting buttons on the Control
Panel. The Control Panel can communicate to a central monitoring station and/or a numeric pager.
Remote Handheld Touchpad (Optional)
These touchpads are used to control the security system primarily from within the home.
KeyChain Touchpads
KeyChain Touchpads are used to contro l the se cur ity syste m
from within or near the outside of your home.
Indoor Motion Sensors
Indoor Motion Sensors dete ct moti on . They ma y be use d for
intrusion protection or to sound chimes on the Control Panel.
Outdoor Motion Sensors (Optional)
Outdoor Motion Se nsors det ect motio n in a pro tected ou tdoor
area and can sound chim es or turn on outside lights. The y are
not used for intrusion detection.
Door/Window Sensors (Optional)
Door/Window Sensors detect the opening of a door or window.
Smoke Sensors
Smoke Sensors detect smoke. They have a built in siren
which sounds when smoke is detected.

Security System Beeps, Lights, and Messages
Your security syst em comm unica tes to yo u th rough the use of pa nel vo ice me ssag es, pan el beep s, indi cator li ght s on the panel
itself, and to a numeric pager if programmed.
You communicate to your security system with key presses on the Control Panel, touchpads, or through the use of a remote
telephone. Disarming and programming require you to input a 4-digit access code. The Master Access Code default is 1-2-3-
4 when the security system is shipped from the factory. You should change it to a code known only by you.
Panel Voice Messages
When you press the buttons on the Control Panel or the touchpads, the Control Panel responds with voice messages. Panel
voice can be enabled or disabled (see “What You Can Change:” on page 11).
These messages may res pon d wi th s ys te m i nfo rma tio n or prom pt yo u to tak e f urth er ac ti on. For example, if you want to dis arm
the system and you press the DISARM button, the Control Panel responds by saying, Please enter your access code.
If you press a button an d the feature has not been pr ogrammed into th e Control Pane l, the panel vo ice will respo nd with Function
not available.
Note: You may receive a different number of panel beeps if buttons are pressed quickly.
Panel Beeps
Panel beeps are used to indicate keypresses, status, and problems with the system. Panel beeps can be enabled or disabled
(see “What You Can Change:” on page 11).

Sensor Test or Phone Test . A sensor test or phone
test can be performed b y following the instru ctions given in th e
section labeled “Manual Tests--What You Need to Test” on
page 15 of this manual.
Access Codes. Your security system has a master
access code, access codes 1- 5, and a panic code. The master code is used fo r disarmi ng and pro grammin g your sy stem.
Access codes 1-5 are generally used for children or as temporary codes for a babysitter or service personnel and may
be used only for disarming. The panic code may be entered
to disarm or subdisarm the system in a non-medical emergency situation . The Con trol Panel will ca ll the ce ntral st ation,
but there will be no indication of an alarm at the Control
Panel.
Note: Because different codes can be entered using the
same button presses you have to use caution when programming the panic co de. Yo u need to ensure that the pa ni c co de
does not use the same button presses as other access
codes. For example if the master code is 1234, do not program the panic code to be 2244. The Control Panel would
interpret these codes to be the same code.
Set Clock. If the panel loses power, the clock mus t be set.

Automatic Control Panel Testing--What the
System Tests for You
Your security system is able to automatically test itself for:
• Power failures
• Low batteries
• Non-working sensors
• Communication troubles with the Central Monitoring Sta-
tion
Trouble Beeps. When your security system detects one
of the problems above, interior sirens sound trouble beeps
rapidly six time s, and then again every minute, unti l the trouble
condition is corrected.
If you do a status check by pressing the SYSTEM STATUS
button twice or change the system from being armed to disarmed or disarmed to armed, the beeps will stop. If the problem is not corrected, beeps start again 4 hours later.

Manual Tests--What You Need to Test
As an added sa feguard, th ere are s ystem test s you should do
yourself on a regular basis. The Control Panel cover in the
lower left corner reminds you to TEST WEEKLY.
Sensors
You can test sensors one at a time to make sure they are
sending strong signal s to the C ontrol Panel (s ee Testi ng Sensors paragraph).
Communication
You can also test the communication
between your system
and the Central Monitoring Station (see Testing Communication paragraph).
Testing Sensors
You should test the security system at least once each week.

Your Emergency Evacuation Floor Plan
Planning for Emergencies
This section describes what you can do to plan ahead for an
emergency:
• Emergency Planning
• Your Floor Plan
Emergency Planning
Since an emergenc y is alw ays unexpec ted, you s hould de vel-
op plans to help prepare for a va riety of emergency si tuations.
Periodically discus s and rehearse emergenc y plans to include
the following:
• Understand how to use your security system
• Know the normal state of doors and windows; open,
closed, or locked.
• Escape fast! (Do not stop to pack.)
• Use a different escape route if closed doors feel hot to
the touch.
• Crawl and hold your breath as much as possible to help
reduce smoke inhalation during your escape.
• Meet at a designated outdoor location.
• Emphasize that no one should return to the premises if
there is a fire.
• Notify the fire department from a neighbor’s phone.
• Emphasize that no one should enter the pre mises if the y
hear sirens in the house.
• If you arrive at the premises and hear sirens, do not
enter. Call for emergency assistance from a neighbor’s
phone.
Your Floor Plan
Use the following guidelines when drawing your floor plan:
• Show all building levels.
• Show exits from each room (two exits per room are rec-
ommended).
• Show the location of all security system components.
• Show the location of any fire extinguishers.

Alarm System Limitations
Not even the most advanced alarm system can guarantee protection against burglary, fire, or environmental problems.
All alarm systems are subject to possible compromise or failure-to-warn for a variety of reasons.
• If sirens are not placed within hearing range of persons sleeping or in remote parts of the premises, or if they are placed
behind doors or other obstacles.
• If intruders gain access through unprotected points of entry or areas where sensors have been bypassed.
• If intruders have the technical means of bypassing, jamming, or disconnecting all or part of the system.
• If power to sensors is inadequate or disconnected.
• If freeze or any environmental sensors are not located in areas where the appropriate condition can be detected.
• If smoke does not re ac h a Sm oke Sen so r. For exampl e, Smo ke Sens ors c ann ot dete ct sm ok e i n c hi mn ey s, wa ll s, roofs , o r
smoke blocked by a closed door. Sensors may not detect smoke in other levels of the buil ding. Sensor s may not warn in
time when fires are caused by smoking in bed, explosions, improper storage of flammables, overloaded electrical circuits,
or other hazardous conditions.
• If telephone lines are out of service. Telephone lines are also vulnerable to compromise by any of several means.
Inadequate maintenance is the most common cause of alarm failure. Therefore, test your system at least once per week to be
sure sensors, sirens, and phone communications are all working correctly.
Although having an alarm system may make you eligible for reduced insurance premiums, the system is no substitute for insurance.
WARNING! Security system devices cannot compensate you for the loss of life or property.
Service
If you have any questions about your security system or if you ever need service, please contact your security consultant.
