Introduction
Congratulations! You have just purchased a Regency 4000 Series Security
System; one of the most sophisticated and flexible commercial security
systems available today.
The electronic heart of your security system is the Model 4720 Control
Communication panel. It has a stand-by back-up battery to prevent system
shutdown during power failures. Typically, you will not have to open the
control panel cabinet once it is installed.
Your security system can monitor up to 80 separate zones, using different
types of sensors (door contact switches, motion and smoke detectors, and so
on). Everyday system control is accomplished through touchpads.
Touchpads are normally installed in main office areas and building entries.
Programmable in thousands of different combinations, they allow you to
quickly and conveniently arm and disarm system functions and zones,
providing an extremely high degree of tamper-proof security.
It is vital that you familiarize yourself with the information in this manual
for optimum system performance and prevention of false alarms. It is also
recommended that you keep this manual in a secure place for future
reference.
Talk to your system installer if you have any questions about which features
are included in your system. If anything covered in this manual differs from
what your installation company representative has told you, follow your
representative’s instructions.
The 4720 Commercial Security System is UL listed for
commercial burglary and fire use.
Page 2 User's Manual
Section 2.
System Overview
Monitoring Capabilities
Your Model 4720 security system is active 24 hours a day, monitoring for
fire, auxiliary conditions (depending on your needs), and touchpad activated
alarms. The intrusion (burglary) portion of the system must be turned on
and off (armed and disarmed) as occupants come and go.
Intrusion
It is important that your intrusion system be on at all times when your
building or place of business is not occupied. The Model 4720 system can
be armed or disarmed with the appropriate code from any of the system
touchpads.
One or more of your doors have been "sensored" to allow entrance and exit
alarm delays. This is done to give you an adjustable, pre-programmed
amount of time to leave after arming the system, without setting off an
alarm. An optional warning beep can sound to count down the time you
have for your exit.
Fire
If your alarm specialist installed smoke detectors or heat sensors, you have
24-hour fire protection. Fire protection is active even when your system is
disarmed. If a fire is sensed, your system touchpad will sound a local alarm
and send a fire alarm signal to your security installer's monitoring station.
Equipment Tampering and Auxiliary
A wide variety of emergency and auxiliary alarms can be programmed to be
sent to the appropriate officials or environmental service companies under
prescribed conditions. These conditions include panic alarms, non-medical
emergency alarms, and tampering alarms.
Section 2. System Overview
User's Manual Page 3
Access Codes
An access code is a confidential number, 3 to 6 digits in length. You enter
this code into the system touchpads to program, arm and disarm, and
command all functions of the system.
Note: When selecting access codes for your system, do not use numbers
such as 1111, 2222, and so forth. While they are easy codes for you
to remember, they may also be easy codes to break.
Installer’s Code (Code 0)
Your installation company uses this special code to install and initially
program your system. It can also be used to arm and disarm your system,
both from the touchpads and from the central station (by telephone lines).
If you do not want the installation company to have access to your system
once it has been installed, ask the installer for the installation code and
instructions for changing it. Once you have changed the code, only you can
arm and disarm the system. If it becomes necessary to change the
programming of your system, you will have to give the installation company
the new code. Talk to your installer about the installation code. There are
many reasons why you might want your installation company to be able to
access your system at any time.
Main User’s Code (Code 1)
Warning
Without this number, it is virtually impossible for anyone to re-
program or reset your security system.
Code 1 (sometimes known as the master code) enables you to change other
code numbers, and change the day and time shown on your touchpad liquid
crystal display (LCD) and optional printer. This main user code number
should be written down and stored for periodic use in a safe, secure place.
Because code 1 can activate the Walk Test mode, during which the 4720 is
temporarily prevented from responding to an actual fire alarm, code 1
cannot be used by the end user in a UL commercial fire installation. Your
installer must reprogram options and perform other tasks that require the use
of code 1.
Model 4720 Commercial Security System
Page 4 User's Manual
Primary Access Codes (Codes 2-98)
Up to 98 primary access codes can be provided by your security system.
These primary codes are the basic keys to your security system. They can
be programmed to allow the user to arm and disarm the system, operate all
DOOR functions, and bypass system zones.
Primary codes can be individually programmed with specific time windows
appropriate for each employee or user. For example, night shift workers can
be programmed for PM hours only, or part-time workers for their scheduled
work hours only.
High Security Door Access Code (Optional)
Note: This product is not listed for UL 294 access control systems.
With this code, you can create a higher level of security for door access
control. When using the high security option, two access codes are required
to unlock a protected door. The first code is a common code for all users,
the second code is the normal access code. Both codes must be used to
unlock the door.
This further prevents unauthorized access to areas such as sensitive
document storage, government security projects, and so on.
The high security code is also beneficial in that only one code has to be
changed when access requirements change.
Note: You can easily change the primary codes and the high security door
access code at any Model 4660B/C touchpad whenever necessary, to
deny access to terminated or transferred employees (see pg. 18).
Touchpad Descriptions
This section describes the touchpads that can be used with the 4720.
Touchpads that are not UL listed (Model 4205) can be used with the 4720,
but may have slightly different buttons or indicator lights.
Models 4660B and 4660C
The 4660B or 4660C touchpads, recommended for commercial use with the
4720 security system, are used to program on/off combinations and to
operate most functions. Figure 1 shows the 4660C touchpad.
An optional intercom/telephone module, the Model 4140, can be used with
the touchpad.

Section 2. System Overview
User's Manual Page 7
Touchpad Buttons
Buttons always visible on the touchpad are for frequently used functions
such as arming, disarming, and door access.
The buttons hidden by the door on the left side of the touchpad allow for
more specialized system control such as zone bypassing, system testing, and
programming. Some of these functions can be performed only by the
installer.
Button Description
Used to enter a variety of test modes.
Used to display zones that are not ready or in trouble and to
display system trouble conditions.
On 4660C touchpads, this button is used in conjunction with an
access code to activate doorstrikes for entrance to areas
programmed for authorized access only. On 4660B touchpads,
this button is disabled and has no effect.
This button cannot be used if the Code 2 feature is used.
Used to enter numerical information, such as access codes.
Controls whether or not zones programmed as interior will
respond to alarms when the system is armed.
Press this button to turn on the INTERIOR and CHIME LEDs.
Press it again to turn them off.
Used to bypass (deactivate) individual zones (sensors) from
system monitoring or control. It also allows you to check which
zones have been bypassed.
When the system is disarmed, pressing this button will display
any zones that were in an alarm condition since the last time the
system was armed.

Model 4140 intercom system and the Model 4640 audio module
are used.
If you make a mistake while entering a code or command, press
this button and start over.
For zones that have been programmed with an entry or exit delay,
pressing this button controls whether these zones will be delayed
or instant. Delayed zones allow a user to exit after arming, or to
disarm after entering, without generating an alarm. Instant zones
cause an immediate alarm when the zone is violated.
When the NO DELAY LED is on and the system is armed, zones
programmed for entry and exit delay are instant.
When pressed and held for one full second, this button generates
an immediate alarm to the central monitoring station, indicating
that the police should be dispatched. This is typically an audible
alarm (see page 22).
When pressed and held for one full second, this button generates
an immediate alarm to the central station, from which the fire
department will be dispatched.
When pressed and held for one full second, this button generates
an immediate alarm to the central monitoring station, for nonmedical emergency situations (typically silent alarm).

Section 3.
Using Your Model 4720 Security System
The following is an operating guide for each of your Model 4720 security
system functions or capabilities. Go over each with your installer if you
have any questions, and practice them until you feel comfortable with the
day-to-day operation of each function.
Arming Your System
When leaving your office or business you will want to arm the intrusion
protection of your security system as follows:
1. Make sure the green READY light is lit, and the ARMED light is off.
2. Enter your access code (3 to 6 digits) on the touchpad.
Note: You have a 3-second timeframe to enter each digit of your access
code. If you pause for 3 seconds, you will hear a short beep and the
touchpad display will tell you to TRY AGAIN.
If make a mistake entering your code, you can also press the CLR
button and start over again.
When you finish, the green READY light will go off, the red ARMED light
will come on, and your system will be armed.
The LCD will show the seconds remaining until the exit time expires. (You
and your alarm company will have determined the exact number of seconds
necessary.) The touchpad may give you an exit warning tone with beeps to
count down your exit time for you. You must be out of the building with the
door shut before the time runs out or an alarm will sound.
If the touchpad shows a TROUBLE condition when you attempt to arm the
system, contact your central station for servicing immediately. DO NOT
attempt to arm the system until the TROUBLE condition is cleared as your
system will not be fully operational.
Disarming Your System
To disarm, simply enter your access code (3 to 6 digits) on the touchpad.
When you return and open a building door on the delay circuit, an entry
warning tone will sound and you will have a programmed amount of time to
enter and disarm the system.
Model 4720 Commercial Security System
Page 10 User's Manual
The warning tone will stop as soon as you enter the first digit of your access
code, allowing you to clearly hear the beeps as you finish entering your
code. The LCD will show the number of seconds until the system does into
alarm if not disarmed.
The ARMED light will go off, and the READY light will go back on.
If you do not want the chime zones to sound, press the CHM or INT
button to turn off the CHIME and INTERIOR LEDs, if needed.
Resolving Not Ready Conditions
If the LCD reads NOT READY and the touchpad READY light is off, there
is a Not Ready condition. This typically means that one or more of your
building's zones are not prepared for system arming (for example, a door is
ajar or a window is left open). Before you can arm the system, you must
identify and correct the Not Ready condition.
To do this, press the STAT button and the LCD will display the zone
number and location of the open sensor (for example, 3 BACK DOOR).
Close the door involved and the unit will automatically indicate a ready
status (READY light is on).
If the display reads TROUBLE, press the STAT button and the display will
list the trouble conditions (see page 24).
Viewing Alarms and Alarm Memory
When an alarm occurs, the touchpad displays ALARM on the first line of
the LCD. Press MEM to view the location of the alarm.
Viewing Trouble and Supervisory Conditions
When a system trouble or sprinkler supervisory condition occurs, the
touchpad will beep and display TROUBLE or SUPERVISORY on the first
line of the LCD. Press STAT to view the location of the trouble or
supervisory.
Viewing Alarm Memory
The alarm memory function records alarm information. Events remain in
memory for a single arming period. Press MEM to display the zone
Section 3. Using Your Model 4720 Security System
User's Manual Page 11
number and location of any alarms that have occurred since the last time the
system was armed. The next time you arm the system, memory from the
previous arming period will automatically be erased.
Silencing Trouble Sounds
To silence a trouble condition alert tone, press MUTE MUTE .
The LCD will display SILENCED instead of TROUBLE. If a new
condition occurs, the TROUBLE display and alert tone will be reactivated.
Bypassing Zones
You may need to bypass certain zones at certain times. Remember that
while a zone is bypassed, there is no protection on that zone. Do not give
the code that allows for bypassing to casual users of the system such as
cleaning or delivery persons.
The BYPS button is used to disable individual intrusion zones. You cannot
bypass 24-hour fire and panic zones.
Bypassing a Zone
When the system is disarmed:
1. Enter the number of the zone you wish to bypass.
2. Press BYPS .
3. Enter your access code, if required.
If the LCD reads RESTRICTED, and you hear a warning tone, you have
attempted to bypass a fire or panic zone that cannot be bypassed.
To find out what zones are bypassed, simply press BYPS .
Reinstating a Bypassed Zone
When the system is disarmed:
1. Enter the number of the zone you wish to reinstate.
2. Press BYPS .
3. Enter your access code, if required.
Model 4720 Commercial Security System
Page 12 User's Manual
The zone is now reinstated. Repeat steps for all zones that you want to
reinstate.
Bypassing or Reinstating an Armed System
The procedure to bypass or reinstate a zone is the same as when the system
is disarmed, except that the LCD will always display ENTER CODE.
After bypassing a zone, the display will not show BYPASSED, so that no
one else will know that part of the system has been disabled.
Note: If reinstating an armed zone will cause an alarm, the LCD will show
RESTRICTED ZONE and the zone will remain bypassed.
Activating Chime Sounds
When the system is disarmed, you can turn the chime function on and off by
pressing CHM or INT .
The chime function will cause a chime sound whenever any chime zone
sensor is activated while the system is disarmed.
Sending Silent Duress (Hold Up) Alarms
If forced to disarm the system under duress, for example, during an armed
robbery, you can still trigger an alarm report.
By pressing a predetermined 1-2 digit duress code (record on page 27)
before entering your access code, you can silently transmit a duress alarm to
the alarm central station.
The system lights and alarms will not indicate that a silent duress alarm is
being sent.
Activating Doorstrikes
To activate doorstrikes and open doors programmed for authorized access
only,
1. Press DOOR .
2. Enter the proper access code.

Programming Your 4720 Security System
Your security dealer or installer will complete all initial programming for
you. However, as time goes on, you will undoubtedly want to make
changes.
Most program changes will be handled by your installer, but resetting time
and date displays and changing access codes are two functions you can do
yourself from the touchpad.
One important thing to remember is that your system is disabled when you
are in programming mode. You will not be protected until you exit
programming mode.
Resetting the Time
1. Press 9 .
2. Press TEST .
3. Enter your main access code. The display will now read TIME?.
4. Enter a 6-digit time setting. The first digit is for the day of the week.
Choose the number of the day from the list below:
1 Monday 5 Friday
2 Tuesday 6 Saturday
3 Wednesday 7 Sunday
4 Thursday
The second digit is 0=AM or 1=PM
Enter the last four digits as the actual time in hours and minutes.
Upon pressing the sixth digit, the touchpad will return to its normal
operation with the correct time in place.
Example: To reset the time for Tuesday 3:15 PM you would enter the
following:
Remember to include a leading zero before 1-digit numbers when entering
the time portion.
Model 4720 Commercial Security System

the date after setting the time.
When the display reads DATE?, enter a 6-digit date in MMDDYY format.
Upon pressing the sixth digit, the touchpad will return to its normal
operation.
Example: To reset the date for March 25, 1995, you would enter the
following:
Always remember to enter leading zeros for 1-digit months and days
(03=March).
Reprogramming Access Codes
Do NOT program new access codes unless you check first with your
installer. He or she will inform you as to which functions and time windows
apply to each code. Make sure the system is disarmed and that you are NOT
in set time mode.
You can only reprogram access codes by using touchpads with English
language LCD displays.
Displaying Codes
1. Press 7 .
2. Press TEST .
3. Enter your main access code. The display will read CODE 1:.

Testing Your 4000 Security System
IMPORTANT
Weekly tests are recommended to ensure
proper system operation.
Discuss testing with your security company installer to develop the optimum
schedule and procedures that will be right for your system and operation.
Testing is required for UL Fire (NFPA 72 Central Station Regulations) and
is described below. This test must be performed with AC power
disconnected. The purpose of this procedure is to ensure that battery
malfunctions will be discovered during the test.
Disconnect the AC power transformer by unscrewing the mounting screws
that hold the cover in place. Thereafter, AC power is disconnected from the
unit by removing the transformer from the wall receptacle.
Once the test has been completed, reconnect AC power by plugging the
transformer into its receptacle. Then replace the transformer cover and
mounting screws.
Note: While the system transformer is unplugged, the LCD display may
read TROUBLE - AC. Press MUTE MUTE to silence.
To test overall system operation:
1. Call and warn your security company's central station that you plan to
run a system test.
2. Be sure the system is disarmed.
3. Press the TEST button followed by your access code.
If all systems are operating properly, the touchpad will reset momentarily,
your alarm will sound for a few seconds, and a dialer test will be transmitted
to the central station. There are a variety of central station response
procedures. Your security company will inform you as to what response
you should expect from a test.
Note: The system test will not test the sensors and detection devices that
activate alarms. Be sure to test smoke and other fire detectors
regularly, following the procedures provided by the detector
manufacturers. Regular tests ensure they are operating properly.

In Case of Trouble
AC Power Failures
During brief power outages in your building, your security system will
function normally using the rechargeable battery installed in the master
control panel.
When your power returns, these batteries will automatically recharge.
In Case of Accidental Activation
In the event that your security system is activated accidentally, do not panic.
It is important to cancel the alarm as soon as possible by entering your
access code on the nearest touchpad.
What Happens When an Alarm Occurs?
IMPORTANT
If you enter your office or building and find an alarm message on the
LCD, LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and call your central station or the
police.
Should your security system go into an alarm condition, three things will
happen:
1. A loud audible warning will be heard from all system speakers. The
sound will vary depending on the type of alarm. See Audible Alarm
descriptions on page 22.
2. The touchpad LCD display will indicate that an alarm has occurred.
Press MEM to see the type of alarm (Fire, Panic, Intrusion, Auxiliary),
its zone number, and the location of the alarm.
3. Your security dealer's central monitoring station will be automatically
dialed, reporting the nature and location of the alarm. They, in turn,
will dispatch the proper authorities to your building.
When an alarm occurs in zone programmed for silent alarm, the audible
warning and displayed message (#1 and #2) will NOT occur, but the alarm
condition will still be reported to the central station (#3).

Page 22 User's Manual
When an alarm or trouble condition occurs, the touchpad displays ALARM,
TROUBLE, or in some cases, SUPERVISORY on the first line of the LCD.
It also tells you to press a key to see the location of the alarm or trouble
condition. In the case of an alarm, press the MEM key. In the case of a
trouble or supervisory, press STAT .
Audible Alarms
The alarms below are ranked in priority order.
Type Sound Description
Fire High volume, high pitch
pulsing tone
This alarm has precedence over all
other alarms. For example, if an
intrusion alarm has been sounded, and
subsequently a fire condition is
detected, the fire alarm will take
priority over the intrusion alarm. See
page 2 for more information.
Panic Slowly alternating high/low
pitch steady tone
Triggered manually whenever anyone
presses one of the panic keys ( POL ,
FIRE , or AUX on the touchpad).
Intrusion Rapidly alternating high/low
pitch steady tone
An intrusion (or burglary) alarm causes
this alarm to sound and sends a report
to the central station. See page 2 for
more information.
Auxiliary Alternating high/low pitch
rapidly pulsing tone.
An auxiliary alarm has the lowest
priority if other alarms such as fire,
panic, or intrusion are sounding
simultaneously. See page 2 for more
information.
