Introduction to Your System
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency.
Monitoring is accomplished with various contact and motion sensors for perimeter
and interior burglary protection, plus strategically placed smoke, heat, or
combustion detectors.
Burglary Protection
The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned on or "armed" before
it will sense burglary alarm conditions. Your system provides three modes of
burglary protection: Away, Stay, and Night, and even allows you to “bypass”
selected zones of protection while leaving the rest of the system armed (e.g. this
enables you to arm the system but leave upper-story windows open.)
The system also provides a Chime mode, for alerting users to the opening and
closing of doors and windows even while the system is disarmed.
System Overview
Partitions
This system may e configured to arm and disarm more than one area, each as if it
had its own control. These areas are called partitions. Partitions are used when
the user wants to disarm certain areas while leaving other areas armed, or to limit
access to certain areas to specific individuals. Each user of the system can be
authorized to operate all or only some partitions, and can be given different
privileges in each. Information about Partitions is presented later in this document.
Zones
Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example,
the sensing device on your Entry/Exit door m ay have been assigned to zone 001,
sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 002, and so on. Thes e
numbers will appear on the display, along with an alpha descriptor for that zone (if
programmed), when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.
Entry/Exit Delays
Your system has preset time delays, referred to as exit delay and entry delay.
Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the
designated exit door without setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately
after entering any arming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection.
If programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period.
Entry delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter through the
designated entrance door. But the system must be disarmed before the entry delay
period ends, or an alarm will occur. The Keypad will beep during the entry delay
period, reminding you to disarm the system. Ask your installer about the delay
times programmed into your system.
11
System Overview (cont'd)
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, Symphony/Symphony-i (and any other Keypads) and
external sounders will sound, and the zone(s) causing the alarm are displayed. If
your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will also
be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.
Memory of Alarm
When an alarm condition occurs, the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the
problem are displayed, along with the type of alarm (e. g. FIRE, ALARM). These
remains displayed until cleared by disarming the system.
Fire Protection
The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will
sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected.
User Codes
Each user must be assigned a name with a corresponding 4-digit user code in order
to gain access to various features and functions. Through Symphony/Symphony-i,
you may program users to access any and all of the following systems:
Fire/Burglary
•
Internet
•
Users for the systems are programmed in a central user setup location that provides
the specific questions for the user pertaining to each system. You may want these
users to be the same, but there are situations in which you may want a user to have
access to one system (e.g., Internet) without having access to another (e.g., the
Fire/Burglary system).

To disarm the partition, turn the key to the right and release. If an alarm has
occurred, the red light will be flashing rapidly (memory of alarm).
How to Check the Status of Other Partitions
This system supports between one and eight Partitions (as configured by your
installer.) Partitioning enables a single physical alarm system to control up to eight
areas of protection (partitions) depending on the system you have purchased. Each
Symphony/Symphony-i and Keypad is assigned a default partition for display
purposes, and will show only that partition's information.
For example, if your physical site is a four-apartment housing unit, your alarm
system may be configured with four partitions. Each apartment’s zones (door,
windows, smoke detectors, etc.) are assigned to separate partitions, giving each
apartment independent arming/disarming control of its own partition (area). A
landlord or manager may be granted access to all partitions, so he/she can control
the entire system.
If a user is so authorized, a Symphony/Symphony-i or Keypad in one partition can
be used to perform system functions in another partition. (Note that only those
partitions authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this
manner.)

Introduction to Fire Alarm System Operation
Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, providing continuous
protection. In the event of an emergency, the installed smoke and heat detectors
will automatically send signals to your Control/Communicator, triggering a loud
interrupting sound from the Keypad. An interrupted sound will also be produced by
optional exterior sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your Keypad and
remain on until you silence the alarm.
In Case of Fire Alarm
1. Should you become aware of a fire emergency before your detectors sense the
problem, go to your nearest Keypad and manually initiate an alarm by pressing
the panic key assigned as FIRE emergency (if programmed by the installer) and
hold down for at least 2 seconds.
2. Evacuate all occupants from the premises.
3. If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify your local Fire
Department immediately.
Fire Alarm System Operation
If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the cause of the alarm. The zone
descriptor of the zone(s) in an alarm condition will appear at the Keypad.
Silencing a Fire Alarm
1. Silence the alarm by entering your code and pressing the OFF key. To clear the
alarm from the display, enter your code and press the OFF key again.
2. If the Keypad does not indicat e a READY condition after the second OFF
sequence, press the READY k ey t o di s p lay t he zone( s) that are faulted. Be sure
to check that smoke detectors are not responding to smoke or heat producing
objects in their vicinity. In this case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.
3. If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in the detector.
Clear it by fanning the detector for about 30 seconds.
4. When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by entering your code
and pressing the OFF key.
Fire Display Lock
If several zones produce an alarm before any are silenced, the system can be
programmed to lock the Keypad display with the first zone that produced an alarm.
Ask your installer if your system has been activated with this feature. To display
the other zone(s), press the [✴] key for each zone. Also the “A”, “B”, or “C” key can
be programmed to scroll the Keypad display to view the previous or subsequent fire
alarms.

Recommendations for Proper Protection
THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE LOCATION OF FIRE AND
BURGLARY DETECTION DEVICES HELP PROVIDE PROPER COVERAGE FOR
THE PROTECTED PREMISES.
Recommendations For Smoke And Heat Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to
the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's
(NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection
equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: For minimum
protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each separate sleeping
area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including
basements. The installation of smoke detectors

Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any
•
room where alarm control connections to an AC source or phone lines are made.
If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room could prevent the control
from reporting a fire or an intrusion.
Recommendations For Proper Intrusion Protection
For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of
entry to a home or commercial premises. This would include any skylights that may
be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building.
In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system so that
alarm signals can still be sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the
telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over the phone
lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).
Recommendations for Evacuation
Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The following
steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:
1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so that they can
be heard by all occupants.
2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should lead
to the door that permits normal exit from the building. The other may be a window,
should your path be impassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows if there
is a long drop to the ground.
3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs and rooftops that
can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep these routes free
from obstruction and post copies of the escape routes in every room.
4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This will prevent
deadly smoke from entering while you escape.
5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route. If the door is
cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door if smoke or heat rushes in.
6. Where smoke is present, crawl on the ground; do not walk upright. Smoke rises
and may overcome you. Clearer air is near the floor.
7. Escape quickly; don't panic.

8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from your house, where
everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the authorities and account for
those missing. Choose someone to assure that nobody returns to the house — many
die going back.

Introduction to User Code Setup
Each user must be assigned a name with a corresponding 4-digit user code in order
to gain access to various features and functions. Through Symphony/Symphony-i,
you may program users to access each of the following systems:
Fire/Burglary
•
Internet
•
Users for the systems are programmed in a central user setup location that provides
the specific questions for the user pertaining to each system. You may want these
users to be the same, but there are situations in which you may want a user to have
access to one system (e.g., Internet) without having access to another (e.g., the
Fire/Burglary system).

Advanced System Features
Introduction to Advanced System Features
While most of the commonly used security functions are available from
Symphony/Symphony-i’s advanced user interface, there are some less used,
advanced features that can either be accessed through Keypad Emulation mode on
the Symphony/Symphony-i or a standard Alpha Keypad. To program your system’s
advanced features, refer to your Control Panel User Guide.
Keypad (Console) Emulation Mode
Console Mode allows you to use a Symphony/Symphony-i interface just as you would
a regular system Keypad. In this mode, you can use either Symphony/Symphony-i’s
touch screen "Keypad,” or the Keypad keys (if available on your model). All
commands shown in Console Emulation mode can also be executed from a standard
Alpha Keypad.
How to Enter Console Emulation Mode

screen, whenever Symphony/Symphony-i checks in with the server (every 10
seconds) it will get the current GMT time. If the Symphony/Symphony-i time
differs from GMT by 10 seconds or more, the Symphony/Symphony-i time will be

Replacing Batteries In Wireless Sensors
Wireless sensors may not have been used in your security system.
If your system has wireless sensors, each wireless sensor in your system has a 9volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects a low battery in any wireless sensor,
including smoke detectors, the optional personal emergency transmitter, and the
optional portable, wireless Keypad. (A low battery in a portable wireless Keypad is
detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the Keypad will display 00.)
Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and
applications, provide 2 to 4 years of service. Actual battery life will depend on the
environment in which the sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter
in the sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as
humidity, high or low temperatures or large swings in temperature, may lead to the
reduction of battery life in an installation. If you have a low battery in a wireless
sensor, a low battery message is displayed on the Keypad.
Maintaining Your System
In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low battery also emits a single
"chirp" sound once every 20 to 30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke detector
with the weak battery. If you do not replace a smoke detector's low battery, the
smoke detector may sound continuously, as if there were a fire alarm.
The low battery message comes on as a warning that batt e r y r eplacement in indicated
sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantim e, the sensor(s) causing the low battery
indication is still fully operational.
Important:
Use only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.
Silencing Low Battery Warning Tones at the Keypad
The warning tones can be silenced by performing an OFF sequence (code plus OFF
key), but the low battery display remains on as a reminder that you have a low
battery condition in one or more of your sensors. When you replace the battery, the
sensor sends a "good battery" signal to the panel as soon as the sensor is activated
(opening/closing of door, window, etc.), causing the low battery display to turn off. If
the sensor is not activated, the display automatically clears within 1 hour.

Glossary
The following terms are used throughout the guide.
Arm/Disarm:
“Armed” simply means that the burglary portion of your system is
turned ON and is in a state of readiness. “Disarmed” means that the burglary
system is turned OFF, and must be rearmed to become operational. However, even
in a “disarmed” state, “emergency” and “fire” portions of your system are still
operational.
Bypass:
To intentionally leave a specific zone unprotected while the rest of the
system is armed.
Day/Night Zone
: An area of protection whose violation causes a trouble indication
during the disarmed (DAY) mode and an alarm during the armed (NIGHT) mode.
Delay Zone:
An area of protection containing doors most frequently used to enter
or exit (typically, a front door, back door, or door from the garage into the building).
The delay zone allows sufficient time for authorized entry or exit without causing an
alarm. Consult your installer for the entry and exit delay times that have been set
for your system during installation and record them on the separate sheet provided
in this guide.
Keypad:
This is the device through which you operate your system. It contains
numbered pushbuttons similar to those on telephones or calculators. These keys
control the arming or disarming of the system, and perform other functions that
were previously described in this manual.
Master Code:
A 4-digit code that gives users access to all of the system’s functions,
including the ability to program other users in the system. See also “User Code.
Partition:
An independent group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without
affecting other zones or users.
User Code:
A 4-digit code that gives users access to the system’s basic functions.
See also “Master Code.”
Zone:
A specific protection point (e.g., door or window).

“FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) Part 15 STATEMENT”
This equipment has been tested to FCC requirements and has been found acc eptable for use. The F CC requires
the following statement for your information:
This equipment generates and uses radio fr equency energy and if not installed and used properly , that is, in strict
accordance with the manufacturer’s instr uctions, may cause interference to radio and televis ion reception. It has
been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B computing device in accordance with the
specifications in Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such
interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour aged to tr y to c or rec t the interf erenc e by one or
more of the following measures:
• If using an indoor antenna, have a quality outdoor antenna installed.
• Reorient the receiving antenna until interference is reduced or eliminated.
• Move the receiver away from the control/communicator.
• Move the antenna leads away from any wire runs to the control/communicator.
• Plug the control/communicator into a different outlet so that it and the receiver are on different branch
