About Your Security System

Your Security Command system has been designed with your safety and comfort in mind. It uses the latest in computer technology to create the most user friendly security and fire system on the market today.

The system combines ease of use with a simple to understand Security Command keypad display to offer the full range of features requested by today’s security system owners. Security Command can protect both the interior and perimeter of your home or business while you're away or just the perimeter when you're inside giving you a wall of security and peace of mind.

You can turn portions of your protection on or off at any time by pressing a few buttons, or have the system turn on or off automatically, every day, by entering a simple schedule. You can add, delete, and change personal security codes at any time or check the status of all protection devices in the system.

Parts of the System

There are two main parts to the Security Command system, the Security Command keypad and the keypad User Menu.

Security Command keypad

This is the device we've placed at certain locations throughout the premises that allow you to turn the system’s protection on and off using your personal security code number.

Keypad User Menu

The keypad also supplies a User Menu containing all of the functions you need to fully operate your system. For example, to change the time of day or a personal security code number.

A Note About False Alarms

One of the most important concerns facing the security industry today is false alarms. The accidental dispatching of police and fire agencies places others in jeopardy by limiting the response capability of those emergency service units. We take this concern seriously and have spent many hours training our employees to recognize the causes of false alarms and prevent their occurring.

As part of our commitment to reducing false alarms, we’d like to encourage you to read this guide thoroughly. All the information contained here can help you quickly, and comfortably, learn the operation of the Security Command system. If you have any additional questions, or feel that you need more training, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

About the text in this Guide

Throughout this guide, we’ve made adjustments to the text to help you distinguish between general information, headings, the names of keys, and Security Command keypad displays. These adjustments are described below:

When you see It means

Introduction

Data Entry keys

You use these keys to enter your code number when arming or disarming or when entering information into the system. The letters under the keys are for use by our technicians to program descriptions of protection devices into your system.

The ARROW key

The ARROW key is used to go back through the keypad displays while operating your system. You can press the ARROW key to back up through the list of functions in the user menu or to make a correction when entering information such as a code number. If you make an error while entering the information, press the ARROW key to erase the last character you entered.

The COMMAND key

Pressing the COMMAND key allows you to advance through the keypad displays or end a function while in the user menu. The COMMAND key is also used when entering information, such as code numbers, into the system. After entering the information using the data entry keys, press the COMMAND key to complete the entry. This ends the function you were performing.

AC LED

This green LED remains on steady as long as your Security Command system is connected to its AC power supply. Should there be an interruption, the green LED will flash on and off. The system's backup battery will maintain normal operation for a time allowing you contact our service department.

The Security Command Keypad

You probably have one or more Security Command keypads installed through which you’ll operate the system. These keypads have been designed to be easy to use for any skill level. Let’s take a look at some of its features:

The SELECT keys

There are four keys under the display called the SELECT keys. These keys are one of the features that make your system so easy to operate. They allow you to choose what to do by pressing the SELECT key under choices being shown in the display. For example, to access the user menu:

Lighted display

The Security Command uses a highly readable fluorescent display and up to 16 characters of text to show events occurring on your system. Some words on the display may occasionally be abbreviated but every attempt has been made to make these easily recognizable.

Page 6

Special Security Command Messages

As you use your system, you’ll occasionally see a keypad display that asks you to enter a code or that describes a condition on the system. Below are some examples of the displays you'll see:

ALARM

A 24 hour loop (for example, fire or panic) or an armed burglary loop has been faulted. Your system may sound bells or sirens.

TROUBLE

There is a problem with a protection device or system component. This display is accompanied by a description of the problem.

ENTER CODE

The system requires you to enter a personal code number. Code numbers can be required for turning your system on (arming), turning your system off (disarming), and many other system options.

As you enter your code number, the keypad display shows an asterisk (*) in place of each digit pressed. This keeps others from seeing your code number on the display as it’s entered. After you've entered your complete code, press the COMMAND key.

TRY AGAIN

The code number you've entered is not recognized by the system. Check the code number and try again.

INVALID CODE

The code number you've entered a second time is considered invalid by the system.

Introduction

INVALID LEVEL

All security code numbers have authority levels that allow the user to only access certain functions. When a user attempts a function outside their authority, the INVALID LEVEL message displays.

INVALID TIME

A level 1 or 2 code number has been entered outside of a schedule. See Schedules.

SERVICE REQUIRED

There is an electronic failure in your system. Contact our service department as soon as possible.

Special Wireless Displays

Your system may use radio transmitters to send alarm and trouble information from the protection devices to the panel. Wireless systems operate the same as hardwired and also have a few unique keypad displays.

BACK DOOR - LOBAT – (Low Battery) The battery in a radio transmitter is low. (BACK DOOR is used as an example only.)

BACK DOOR - MISNG - (Missing) The panel is not receiving the radio transmitter's periodic test report.

WIRELESS - TRBL - (Trouble) Some part of your wireless system is operating improperly. Test the system to locate the trouble.

Page 7

Special Security Command Tones

Your keypad also contains a small speaker that allows it to alert you to events as they occur on your system. Below are brief descriptions of the different tones you'll hear from the keypad:

Key press tone: A short beep each time you press a key on the keypad and it’s acknowledged by the system.

Prewarn tone: A continuous pulsed tone that sounds when you open an entry delay door on a system that is armed (turned on) reminding you to disarm the burglary protection.

Monitor tone: A pulsed tone for one second, one pulse only that sounds whenever a door or window is opened while you’re using the loop monitor function from the User Menu. See Loop Monitor.

Trouble tone: A steady tone indicating a trouble condition on your system. Press a SELECT key to silence.

What to do when the trouble tone is sounding

You can silence the trouble tone by pressing any one of the top row SELECT keys. This silences the keypad but does not correct the condition that originally caused the trouble.

Introduction

Understanding Security System Terms

Throughout this guide, and in some displays on your keypad, you’ll see certain words or phrases that might be unfamiliar. Although every effort has been made to use terms that are commonly known, there are some for which there was no acceptable substitute.

Below are some terms you’ll see here and on your keypad display:

Arming

This is the term used for turning on the burglary protection in one or more areas of the system. Your system may require you to enter a code number. When armed, the system is able to sound alarm bells or sirens and, if monitored, send alarm reports to a central station when a burglary loop is faulted.

Fire, panic, and other 24 hour devices are always turned on and do not need to be armed.

Disarming

This means turning off one or more areas of the system. When disarmed, the system does NOT sound alarms or send alarm reports to a central station when a burglary loop is faulted.

Loop

A loop refers to a group of one or more protected openings or protection devices assigned the same loop number. Each door or window, motion detector, smoke detector, or other device has a loop number and a name.

Often, similar devices in the same general area will share the same loop. For example, the windows on the east side of the premises can all be grouped together in a loop named E. WINDOWS.

Page 8

Understanding Security System Terms

Entry or Exit loop

Almost all systems have one or more doors through which you can enter or exit the premises. These doors are programmed with a delay time to allow you to enter or exit while the system is armed without setting off the alarm.

When you arm the system, activity on this loop is ignored until the programmed exit

delay time expires. Once that time has expired and the system is fully armed, opening the door causes the panel to start the

entry

delay time. During the entry delay time, you must enter a

valid code number to disarm the system or an alarm will occur.

Instant Loop

Exterior windows and non entry doors, or interior protection devices, are typically not programmed with delay times. If these loops are faulted while the system is armed, an alarm occurs instantly.

24 Hour Loop

A 24 hour loop is never assigned to an area and is not turned on or off by arming or disarming your system. Some examples of 24 hour loops are: fire loops, panic loops, and temperature control loops.

Areas

An area is made up of burglary loops that can be armed or disarmed together. One area might consist of the garage doors and windows. When you arm the garage, these loops sound an alarm if faulted.

Central Station Monitoring

Your system can also be programmed to automatically send alarm, trouble, and arming and disarming reports to a central station. Operators at the central station can in turn dispatch the appropriate authorities or contact you with the specific event information.

Introduction

Status

Status is a feature that automatically displays the armed or disarmed status of your system on the Security Command keypads. Alarm or trouble conditions on a loop or a system monitor such as AC or battery trouble can also be displayed. There are two types of status information available: Armed Status and Status List.

Armed Status

With Armed Status, the keypad displays the current armed condition of areas within your security system. For example:

When you arm areas 1 to 4, the keypad shows = 1234 When you arm areas 1 and 3, the keypad shows =13

If your system is setup as an All/Perimeter or Home/Away system and both the interior and perimeter is armed the display reads:

SYSTEM ON

Status List

The keypad Status List displays any alarm or trouble condition on a loop, and any trouble condition on an internal system monitor. The system monitors include the AC power, battery power, panel box tamper, printer, and phone lines. If more than one alarm or trouble condition occurs at the same time, the keypad sequences this information on its display.

If the alarm is from a 24 hour loop or a system monitor, it remains in the Status List until it restores. If one or more armed burglary loops trip at the same time, the last one to trip remains in the Status List. This is to ensure that if a burglary has occurred the last loop tripped remains displayed even if it has been restored.

Page 9

How your System Operates

Your system has been programmed to operate in one of three modes: Area Arming, All/Perimeter, or Home/Away.

• Area Arming - Your burglary protection is divided into areas. Each area has a custom name, can be turned on or off independent of other areas, and can have different schedules and authorized users.

• All/Perimeter - Your burglary protection is divided into two areas, Interior and Perimeter. You can turn on the just the Perimeter protection while inside for security or turn on both as you leave.

• Home/Away - Similar to All/Perimeter but with some different arming requirements. See the Home/Away section in this guide.

Regardless of how your system has been programmed, much of the operation is similar. Throughout this guide, any differences between the systems are noted for your convenience.

Arming Functions

Bypassing: After making your arming selection, the keypad displays

any loops that have been bypassed while the system was disarmed. These loops remain bypassed until the system is disarmed or until they’re reset using the Bypass Loops menu option. Any 24 hour loops in a bad condition are also displayed.

During arming, the system verifies that all doors, windows, and other protection devices to be armed are in normal condition. If everything is okay, the system arms. If there is a problem on one or more loops the keypad displays the problem and allows you to bypass those loops.

Introduction

If the problem can be corrected by simply closing a door or window, do not bypass the loop. Instead, correct the problem and repeat the arming procedure. If the loop faults cannot be corrected, you can bypass before arming or wait until the loop can be repaired by a service technician. Bypassing a loop means the system ignores it during the armed period. A code number may be required to bypass a loop.

Armed Message: After all bypassing is completed or loop faults corrected, the areas you selected are armed. The keypad briefly displays ALL SYSTEM ON if all areas in the system are arming and SYSTEM ON if only selected areas are arming. The keypad then displays the exit delay as it counts down. Exit loops are not armed until the exit delay time expires. All other loops are armed immediately.

If your system uses a keyswitch to arm an area, the exit delay time is NOT shown on the keypad display.

ONE MOMENT . . . Message: If your system is monitored, it may be programmed to wait for the transmission of an arming report to the central station before displaying the armed message. See Arming Report below. This is to verify your phone lines are working properly. While the system is waiting for the transmission, the display reads

ONE MOMENT.... If the report is received, the keypad displays the

armed message. If the report is not received, the keypad displays

LOCAL ALARM ONLY before displaying the armed message. Arming Report: Your system can be programmed to send arming or

loop bypassing reports to a central station. This feature is optional and can be programmed for you at any time.

Page 10

Area System Arming

Area Assignment: Your security system has been set up into

separate areas. The number of areas and their names are listed in the back of this guide.

Arming or Disarming: You can arm and disarm all areas at one time or each area individually. You can only arm or disarm areas authorized for your code number.

All Or Selective Arming: After entering your code number, the system allows you to arm either all of the areas to which you have access or one or more selected areas. If you choose to arm all areas, the system begins verifying that all loops in those areas are in a good condition. If you choose to arm selected areas, the system prompts you to choose the areas you want to arm.

Area System Arming

Arming: Your Security Command keypad is usually located close to

the door from which you enter and exit the premises. This allows the most convenience when arming or disarming the system. Arming the system is usually done by the last person to leave the premises.

Arming the System:

1. Press the COMMAND key until ARM DISARM is displayed.

2. Select ARM to arm the system.

3. Enter your code number if required. The display reads ALL? NO YES.

4. Select NO to arm only selected areas. Go to step 5. Select YES to arm all areas authorized for your code number. Go to step 6.

Arming and Disarming

5. If NO is selected in step 4, the display begins to list each area to which you have access followed by NO YES.

Example: OFFICE NO YES 5a. Select YES for each area you want to arm. 5b. Select NO for each area you do not want to arm.

Note: You can also just press the area numbers you want to arm

while at the ALL? NO YES display. This changes the display to AREAS: . The area numbers you select appear in the display. For example: AREAS: 2 4 . Press COMMAND when done.

6. The system displays any loops that have been bypassed prior to arming and any bad 24 hour loops. No action is required.

7. At this point you can bypass any bad loops. See steps 7a through 7c.

7a. If a problem exists on one or more loops, the loop name and

problem are displayed followed by: BYPASS? NO YES

7b. Select NO to stop the system from arming without bypassing

any loops. Correct the problem on the loop and return to step

7c. Select YES to bypass all bad loops being displayed.

8. The display reads SYSTEM ON if at least one area in the system is armed, and ALL SYSTEM ON if all areas in the system are armed.

9. The keypad then displays the exit time in seconds and counts down the remaining time: EXIT : ## (## = seconds remaining) The exit loops arm when the delay time expires.

Page 11

Area System Disarming

Disarming: While the system is armed, you can only enter the

premises through an entry/exit delay door without causing an alarm. After opening the door, the Security Command keypad sounds a prewarn tone to remind you to disarm the system. You must disarm the system before the prewarn tone expires or an alarm on the door loop will occur.

During the prewarn tone, the keypad displays ENTER CODE:. Enter your code to disarm the system. Only those areas assigned to your code will disarm.

Schedules: If you’ve programmed schedules for your system and a level 1 or level 2 code is entered outside of a schedule, the keypad displays INVALID TIME. This lets the user know that they are disarming outside of their authorized time. If your system is monitored, an Unauthorized Entry report is sent to the central station.

All Or Selective Disarming: After entering your code number, the system allows you to disarm either all of the areas to which you have access or just selected areas. If you choose to disarm all areas, the system automatically disarms them. If you choose to disarm selected areas, the names of those areas will be displayed on the keypad.

Alarm Display: After disarming, the keypad displays any loops that tripped or any transmission problems that occurred during the armed period. All burglary loops are then disarmed and any bypassed loops are automatically reset.

Disarmed Message: The keypad displays ALL SYSTEM OFF after the system disarms.

Arming and Disarming

Central Station Report: A report of the system disarming can be transmitted to the central station. This is optional and can be programmed for you at any time.

Disarming an Area System

1. Press the COMMAND key until ARM DISARM is displayed. During entry delay this process starts at step 3.

2. Select DISARM to disarm areas.

3. The keypad displays ENTER CODE: . Enter your security code and press COMMAND. The keypad displays ALL? NO YES.

4. Select YES to automatically disarm all the areas authorized for your security code.

Select NO to disarm only certain areas individually. The keypad then displays the name of each area authorized for your security code followed by the NO YES display.

Choose YES to disarm the area displayed. Choose NO to not disarm and to display the next area.

Note: You can also just press the area numbers you want to disarm

while at the ALL? NO YES display. This changes the display to AREAS: . The area numbers you select appear in the display. For example: AREAS: 2 4 . Press COMMAND when done.

5. After all areas have been displayed, any alarms or communication problems that occurred during the armed period are displayed.

6. If all areas have been disarmed, the keypad next displays ALL SYSTEM OFF.

Page 12

All/Perimeter System Arming

Area Assignment: Your security system is divided into two separate

areas. Motion detectors, inside doors, and other interior protection devices are assigned to the

Interior

area while windows and exterior

doors are assigned to the

Perimeter

area.

Perimeter or All: When you go to arm an All/Perimeter system, the Security Command keypad displays PERIM ALL. If you select ALL, you’re arming both the Perimeter and the Interior of the system. You’ll want to arm both of these areas when leaving the premises with nobody left inside. Selecting PERIM arms only the perimeter of the system. Perimeter arming is for when you’re staying inside but want the comfort of knowing the exterior doors and windows are armed. Perimeter arming allows you to move freely about inside without setting off any interior alarms.

Instant: During the exit delay time, you can cancel the exit and entry delays and cause all loops to be instant loops. Just press the far right select key under INSTNT while the exit delay is displayed. This immediately arms the exit loops. However, no entry delay is provided and an alarm will occur should an entry door be opened.

Arming an All/Perimeter System

1. Press the COMMAND key until PERIM ALL is displayed.

2. Select ALL to arm both the perimeter and interior areas. Press PERIM to arm the perimeter area only.

3. Enter your code number if required.

4. The Security Command displays loops that have been bypassed prior to arming and 24 hour loops that are in a bad condition. No action is required by you.

5. Bypass any bad loops if required. See steps 5a through 5c. 5a. If a problem exists on one or more loops, the loop name and

problem is displayed followed by BYPASS? NO YES.

5b. Select NO to stop the arming without bypassing any loops.

Correct the problem on the loop and return to step 1.

5c. Select YES to bypass all bad non-24 hour loops.

6. The Security Command displays PERIMETER ON if only the perimeter is being armed and ALL SYSTEM ON if both the perimeter and interior are being armed. The system then arms all non-exit loops.

7. The Security Command next displays EXIT: ## INSTNT and begins to count down the number of seconds remaining for you to exit. When the delay expires, the exit loops are armed.

8. You can select INSTNT while EXIT: ## INSTNT is displayed to immediately arm all exit loops and make them instant. The keypad displays INSTANT.

9. When the system is fully armed, the keypad displays PERIMETER ON for perimeter arming and SYSTEM ON for perimeter and interior arming.

User Codes

User Code Level: 9 only. Function: Allows you to add, delete, and change a user's (person

operating the system) code number. There are three characteristics associated with each user code that

define its capabilities within the system.

12 34812 7

User Number - Every user is numbered from 1 to 25 (or 50 or 99, see

System Setup) This number identifies them to the system and can be transmitted to the central station when they arm or disarm areas.

Code Number - Users also have a 1 to 5 digit number that they enter into the Security Command keypad when arming or disarming. This code number is kept secret from other users.

A user enters

only

their code number when operating the system.

Code Level - The user is also assigned a level of authority (1 to 9) by the person administrating the system that determines the areas and functions they can access.

Important: Each area must have at least one user with a level 9 authority in order to be able to add or delete user codes.

The table to the right lists system functions users are allowed to access based on the authority level assigned to their codes at the time they’re added to the system.

Schedules

User Code Level: 7 and above Function: The Schedules function allows you to program into the

system the times at which you normally turn your burglary protection on and off each day of the week. This information can then used by the system to automatically arm or disarm the burglary protection.

If your system does not use automatic arming, you can use the Closing Check/Extend feature with Schedules to help ensure your system is armed manually at a specific time. This option sounds the keypad buzzer and displays CLOSING TIME! when a schedule expires. Users still on the premises are reminded to arm the system or extend the schedule to a later time. If the system is not armed, or the schedule extended, a report can be sent to the central station.

Schedules can also be used to restrict access to the system by users with a 1 or 2 authority level assigned to their codes.

Your system provides you with three different types of schedules:

Permanent, Primary, and Secondary schedules occur at the same programmed time until you change or delete them. These are typically used for automatic arming and/or disarming.

Temporary schedules occur only once and then cleared from the system. These are typically used to allow someone one time access to the premises when used with a level 1 or 2 code.

Output schedules allow you to set the times when relay outputs connected to your system are turned on and off automatically.

There is one set of schedules for each area for each day of the week. Refer to System Setup to see how your system is programmed.
