Thank you for choosing the ZX200/ZX210 or ZX400/ZX410 Security Control. This
control will provide you with years of reliable operation when properly installed and
maintained.
To maximize the benefits of your Security System, it is important to carefully read
the entire contents of this manual and become familiar with all control operations.
Your Security Company Representative has recorded confidential information about
your system in this manual, therefore, you should store it in a secure place. Contact
your Security Company Representative immediately with any questions.
It is important to note however, that no security system provides total protection
over life or property, nor can it detect intrusion or other conditions in all circumstances. Ask your Security Company Representative to fully review the features of
your system, indicate areas of potential risk, and detail recommendations for future
upgrades to the system.
The following is a list of general precautions you should follow to maximize the
benefits of your security system:
1.The system must be tested at least once per week to ensure proper operation.
Contact your Security Company Representative for testing procedures and
scheduling of a regular maintenance program.
2.If the system is malfunctioning, have it serviced by a qualified professional as
soon as possible.
3.If the electrical system of the building is altered, be sure that the changes do
not create an interruptible power supply to the control panel.
4.If the telephone system is serviced, test the security system to ensure that
communication to the Central Station is intact.
5.Motion detectors are designed to detect specific types of motion within a
defined area. Be sure that you understand which areas are protected and
under what conditions the system is active (temperature and time variations,
etc.).
6.Smoke detection devices cannot detect all types of fire under all circumstances.
Have your Security Company Representative explain the limitations of your fire
system. Have smoke detectors cleaned and tested on a regular basis.
7.Security systems rely upon electrical power as a primary power source. When
the electrical power fails, the control is powered by a standby battery. The
standby battery is automatically checked by the system and should be replaced
by a qualified service technician at regular intervals.
8.If upon returning to the building, you discover that an alarm has occurred, DO
NOT ENTER THE PREMISES. Immediately contact the proper authorities.
9.Be sure to inform your neighbors that a security system has been installed.
Also explain the meanings of the various audible signals and ask them to
contact the appropriate authorities upon activation of an alarm.
10. The ZX200/ZX210 and the ZX400/ZX410 Security Controls are UL Listed for
Grade A Household Burglary and UL requires that audible burglar alarms be
sounded by a bell and fire alarms by a horn. For combination burglar and fire
alarm systems, the sounder will emit a temporal tone for fire alarms and a
steady tone for burglar alarms. The fire alarm signal takes priority over the
burglar bell.
11. UL requires that exit times not exceed 60 seconds. Entrance times may not
exceed 45 seconds. Cutoff time for siren/bell cannot be less than 4 minutes for
residential fire and burglary and 15 minutes for commercial burglary.

OPTIONAL FEATURES
FIRE DETECTION
Fire Detection
Introduction
Your system may include fire detection, depending on the options
purchased and the local codes and regulations for your area. Fire alarm
systems are always active and cannot be turned OFF. All fire systems
require regular testing and maintenance. Common household dust
buildup in smoke detectors can cause them to false alarm or fail in a
time of need. Consult your security company representative for a
scheduled maintenance program.
All devices in a Fire Alarm system should be tested monthly except as
described in NFPA 72. See Testing Your System - Walk Test for testing
zones and Bell Test for testing the bell.
When an Alarm Occurs
When a Fire Alarm occurs, the bell sounds, the Control Station produce
the fire alarm tone and display a Fire Alarm message and/or display the
zone that caused the alarm.
To silence the alarm, press the Off Cancel key and enter your passcode.
If you silence a Fire Alarm and the Control Station goes into Alarm
Memory Mode (see Alarm Conditions - Alarm Memory), the alarm will
be reported if the system is connected to a Central Station. The Ready
and Trouble LED will flash. If a false alarm occurs, notify the authorities
immediately.
If you silence a Fire Alarm and the Control Station does not go into
Alarm Memory mode, then the alarm was aborted and the Trouble LED
will be illuminated. You have 255 seconds to reset the smoke detector
(see Resetting Smoke Detectors below), otherwise the smoke detectors
will reset automatically after 255 seconds have elapsed.
Resetting Smoke Detectors
Most smoke detectors “latch” in an alarm condition once they are
triggered. If your keypad displays a trouble condition at the zone after
41
Page 42
FIRE DETECTION
you have silenced a Fire Alarm, you will need to reset the smoke
detector. Press the RESET SMOKE key (7) and enter your passcode.
The trouble condition should disappear on the zone in a couple of
seconds. If the trouble condition does not clear after resetting the
smoke detector, contact your installer for service.
NOTE
You cannot reset smoke detectors while the alarm is
sounding, you must silence the alarm first.
Developing An Evacuation Plan
Preparation and education are of prime importance in the prevention of
fire. An evacuation plan should be established BEFORE a severe
situation arises. Your security system may or may not contain fire
detection and notification equipment. Make sure your Security Company Representative fully explains the configuration of your system.
Make sure you fully understand the limitations of your system.
Use the following steps in establishing an evacuation plan:
1. Evaluate all possible escape routes from your home and draw a
floor plan.
2. Select two exit escape routes from each room.
3. Provide escape ladders for rooms above the first floor. Check the
ladders to be sure that they will reach the ground.
4. Draw a rough sketch of your escape plan so that everyone is
familiar with it.
5. Practice your escape plan to assure that everybody knows what
they have to do in a severe situation.
6. Establish a meeting place outside where your family is to report.
7. Advise the local fire authority if you have installed a fire alarm
system.
Discuss the following with all residents:
1. Familiarity with alarm signals.
2. Status of bedroom doors.
3. Testing of door during a fire and use of alternate escape routes if
HOT to touch.
4. Crawling and holding breath techniques during a fire.
5. ESCAPE FAST, DO NOT STOP for packing.
6. Emphasize that no one is to return to a burning building.

OPTIONAL FEATURES
FIRE DETECTION
Fire Prevention And Escape
The purpose of heat and smoke detectors is to detect a fire in its earliest
stages and sound an alarm, giving you more time to exit the premises
before smoke reaches a dangerous level.
Know Fire Hazards
No detection device can protect life in all situations. Therefore, safeguards should be taken to avoid such potentially dangerous situations
as smoking in bed, leaving children home alone, and cleaning with
flammable liquids such as gasoline.
The best fire protection is minimizing fire hazards through proper
storage of materials and good housekeeping practices. Careless use of
combustible materials and electrical appliances overloading electrical
outlets are major causes of fire. Explosive and fast burning materials
must be eliminated from the home.
In Case Of Fire
Leave immediately! Do not stop to pack or search for valuables. In
heavy smoke, hold your breath and stay low - crawl if necessary. The
clearest air usually is at the floor. If you have to go through a closed
door, carefully feel the door and door knob to see if undue heat is
present. If relatively cool, brace your foot against the bottom of the
door with your hip against the middle, and one hand against the top
edge. Open slightly. If there is a rush of hot air, slam the door quickly
and latch it. Unvented fire will build up considerable pressure. Be sure
that all members of the household realize this danger.
Use your neighbor’s phone or street fire alarm box. The job of extinguishing the fire should be left to the professionals. Too many unforeseen things can occur when inexperienced people try to extinguish a
fire.
43
Page 44
FIRE DETECTION
Be Prepared
Perform fire drills regularly. Use them to assure recognition of an alarm
signal. For your protection, simulate different circumstances (smoke
the hall, living room, etc.). Then have everyone react to the situation.
Draw a floor plan and show two exits from each room. It is important
that children be instructed carefully. Their tendency is to hide in a
crisis.
It is imperative that one meeting place outside the home be established. You should insist that everyone meet there during an alarm.
This will eliminate the tragedy of someone reentering the house for a
missing member who is actually safe.
If you have small children and/or invalids residing in your household,
you can help your fire department by placing decals on bedroom
windows. Most fire departments supply the decals.
Become familiar with the distinctive sounds of your Fire alarm and
Burglar alarm signals.
Fire Supervisory (ZX400/ZX410 only) & Fire Trouble
If a trouble condition for a Fire zone is displayed on your keypad,
consult your installer. A Fire Trouble condition results when a fire alarm
is silenced and the smoke detector has not been reset, or when the
smoke detector is dirty and needs to be cleaned/serviced. A Fire
Trouble also results when a Fire zone is bypassed.
If none of the above apply, the Fire Trouble may be due to a wiring
problem or a supervisory condition and a service call may be required.

Part 68 Notification
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC)
rules. All connections to the telephone net work must be made through standard telephone
company plugs and jacks, RJ31-X or equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for easy and
immediate disconnection of the equipment. If the connection cord is unplugged from the jack,
there shall be no interference to the telephone equipment still connected to the telephone
network.
The FCC registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) can be found printed on
the wiring connection label located inside the Control Box Enclosure. If requested, provide this
information to your telephone company. The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices
that may be connected to your telephone line and still have all of this devices ring when your
number is called. In most, but no all, areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices should not
exceed five.
In the unlikely event that the equipment should ever fail to operate properly, it should be
disconnected from the telephone jack to determine if the problem is with the telephone net
work or with the equipment. If a problem is found with the equipment, leave it disconnected
until it is repaired or replaced.
In the unlikely event that the equipment should ever cause harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may temporarily discontinue your service. If possible, they will notify you
in advance. However, if advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company may temporarily
discontinue service without prior notification. In the case of temporary discontinuance, the
telephone company shall promptly notify the telephone subscriber who will be given the
opportunity to correct the situation. The customer also has the right to bring a complaint to
the FCC if he feels the disconnection is not warranted.
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you will be
given advance notice so as to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
You should notify the telephone company if this equipment is removed from the premises and
the telephone jack is no longer needed.
