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 provides the ability to arm and disarm up to eight different areas, 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 may have been assigned to zone 001,
sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 002, and so on. These
numbers will appear on the display, along with a Custom English 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 (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, you may
program users to access any and all of the following systems:
Fire/Burglary
•
Message Center
•
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., Message Center) without having access to another (e.g.,
the Fire/Burglary system).
Internet Features
As a household Internet appliance, Symphony provides access to a wealth of
information, including:
News
•
Sports
•
Weather
•
E-mail, and
•
Updates of user-selectable content such as your horoscope.
•
12
Additionally, you may control all of Symphony’s functions from any personal
computer or laptop that has Internet capabilities, including security system
functions (arming, disarming, etc.) and to check to see if you have a voice message.
Message Center Features
Message Center is an option available with Symphony, which provides you and your
family with the conveniences of a full-featured digital answering machine. In
addition to all the features of a digital answering system, Message Center offers
much more, including caller ID (if service is available), multiple mailboxes, a memo
feature, and a unique Privacy feature that enables you to divert ALL calls to the
Message Center mailbox for a duration you select – such as during mealtime, baby’s
nap time, etc. Check with your installer to see if these features have been enabled.
System Basics
Mailboxes -
•
and users can be assigned access to any combination of mailboxes. This lets each
user listen to his/her own messages without having to listen to messages
intended for the other users
System Overview (Cont'd)
The system has four mailboxes for storing messages and memos,
Greetings -
•
the caller to leave a message. If multiple mailboxes are in use, the message can
instruct the caller to press a key (1-4) corresponding to the desired user’s
mailbox, and then leave a message. The system then announces the greeting for
that user and automatically stores the caller's message in that mailbox.
Security System -
•
may be used in your system – these provide a two-line LCD display, standard
control keys, plus a speaker/microphone to record and retrieve voice messages.
The system can also be set so that a user's messages are automatically played
whenever that user disarms the security system from a Message Center Keypad.
Playback Upon Disarm
Depending on how Symphony and Message Center are set up, messages can be
played back when the system is disarmed. If multiple users and mailboxes are set
up, the messages for a user can be played back when that user disarms the system
Messages and Memos
Like any digital answering system, Message Center records incoming telephone
messages. Message Center also enables users to record “Memos” for themselves or
for other users. For example, you may record a memo for your child – then when
your child returns from school and disarms the system, your memo is played back
ahead of any telephone messages.
When Message Center answers a call a recorded greeting instructs
In addition to Symphony, special Message Center Keypads
.
Privacy Feature
The Privacy feature turns off all telephone ringers and lets Message Center answer
your calls. This can be useful if you do not wish to be disturbed at certain times.
A simple pull-down menu lets you select the Privacy duration (from 30 minutes to 5
hours). When Privacy is selected (via a check box), Message Center will take all
calls for that duration, or until you turn it off.
13
System Overview (cont'd)
Use the Message Menu to check for any messages that may have been left while
Privacy was turned on.
Extended Functionality
Extended functions are advanced functions that can be accessed through a standard
Custom English Keypad or through emulation mode on your Symphony touch
screen. Refer to your Control Panel User Guide for these features.

How to Disarm Using a Keyswitch
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). Each Symphony 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, this alarm
system would 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 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.)
To check the status of other partitions perform the following:
ACTION SCREEN
1. From the "Home" screen press the
SECURITY
screen.
2. Press the "Current Partition" tab (lower edge
of the screen; in this case it displays P1). The
