Setting the System
If any zones are left open (e.g. a door ajar) or are ‘in fault’ the display will
illuminate the zone light of these zones and sound a repeating series of
bleeps corresponding to the zone number (i.e. Zone 1 bleeps once, Zone
2 bleeps twice, etc.). If more than one zone is open the bleeps will
correspond to the highest zone number (i.e. if Zone 2 and Zone 6 are
open the control panel will bleep 6 times).
While one or more zones are open the exit timer is suspended. Open
zones that will be closed during exit (e.g. exit zones, like the front door)
may be disregarded. Other open zones should be closed. The exit tone
and exit timer will resume when all zones are closed. If it is necessary to
leave a zone open then it must be omitted (see “To OMIT Zones During
Setting” below). If an open zone cannot be closed then it may be ‘in
fault’. If the fault cannot be corrected contact your alarm company.

If the System Requires an Anti-Code After an Alarm Activation
The system may be programmed to require an Anti-Code after an alarm

as normal. However you will not be able to reset the system without first
obtaining the Anti-Code. The zone lights will display a random 4 digit
sequence. They will flash each digit in turn and then pause before
repeating. Contact the phone number on the last page with this sequence
in order to obtain a 4 digit Anti-Code which will allow the system to be
reset.

the corresponding zone light. The control panel will in addition sound a
repeating series of bleeps corresponding to the open zone number (i.e.
Zone 1 bleeps once, Zone 2 bleeps twice, etc.). If more than one zone is
open the bleeps will correspond to the highest zone number (e.g. if Zone
2 and Zone 6 are open the control panel will bleep 6 times).
Conduct a walk test by triggering each of the system’s detection devices
