ARMING  
Before the control can be armed, all of the intrusion zones must be secure as  
indicated by the green READY indicator. If the READY indicator is off, one or  
more zones are faulted. The indicator(s) corresponding to the faulted zone(s) will  
light. Use the pull out zone I.D. card on the control station to determine the areas of  
protection which are assigned to each of the six (6) zones, thencheckthe appropriate  
doors and windows to see that they are closed.

The control is programmed with an exit delay time which allows a specific amount  
of time to leave through any delay defined intrusion detection zone without causing  
an alarm. Be sure that you have been informed on routes to enter and exit from  
without causing an alarm. If too much time is taken to exit, the beeping tone will  
change to a steady tone, indicating the start of entry delay. Disarm the control and  
start over to avoid a false alarm.

Automatic Interior Off/Delay Off  
Your system may have been programmed to automatically turn the interior zones  
off if you arm and do not leave the premises before the exit delay time expires.  
The  
entrance delay may also be programmed to automatically turn off at this time. When  
the system is disarmed, the interior and delay

Arming  
Your system may have been programmed with an abbreviated arming feature.  
When this feature is enabled, only the first two digits of your User Code will be  
required to arm the system and perform other features. Disarming however, will still  
require the entire code sequence.  
If the READY indicator is off, one or more detection devices such as a door or  
window has been left open. The system cannot be armed. One or more of the six  
ZONE indicators will also be lighted indicating the area of protection that is at fault.

DISARMING  
Your system is programmed with one or more entrance delay zones which allow  
time to enter the premises without causing an alarm. Each delay door may be  
programmed with a different entry time. Be sure to check with your installer.  
Note: If your system has the  
Follower” feature enabled, all  
interior designated zones automatically become delay zones whenever  
you first enter through a delay zone. This allows you to walk In front of  
motion detectors on the way to the control station after you enter.  
After entering the premises through a delay zone, the control station will sound  
a continuous tone to remind you to disarm the system.

THE EMERGENCY KEYPAD PANIC ALARMS  
Your system may have been purchased with up to three emergency keypad panic  
alarms. These may be used to activate an alarm in the event of a Fire, Hold-up, or  
other emergency condition, as programmed by your installer. Each alarm is  
activated by pressing the appropriate emergency panic key (located below the  
numeric keys). Each alarm may be audible or silent. It may also be programmed  
to report the condition to central monitoring station. Check with your security rep-  
a
resentative to determine the characteristics of your system.  
Each of the three emergency panic keys (from left to right: A, B, and C) can initiate  
a specific type of alarm as programmed and labeled by your installer.  
To activate an Emergency Alarm:  
1. Press the appropriate emergency panic key. The Emergency Alarm will

SPECIAL FEATURES  
The CHIME mode allows audible monitoring of zones while  
system is  
disarmed. When the CHIME mode is active, the control station sounder will beep  
whenever a perimeter burglar defined zone (door, window, etc.) indicator is opened.  
For example, the CHIME feature will cause the control station to beep two times  
whenever the front door has been opened. Many businesses use this type of signal  
to announce that a customer has entered. In a residential application, the CHIME  
is useful for monitoring opening of doors by children.  
To Turn CHIME On  
The system must be disarmed.  
1.  
Press the “6” key and hold for three seconds. The control station will beep three  
times to signify that the CHIME has been turned on.  
2.  
The control station will now beep two times when any burglar zone is opened.  
3.  
1.  
Note: The CHIME feature does not annunciate  
zones.  
To Turn The CHIME Off  
Press the  
key and hold for three seconds. The control station will beep two  
times to signify that the CHIME has been turned off.  
Your system may be programmed for quick arming even with one or more zones  
faulted. In this condition, when an attempt is made to arm the system with faulted  
zones (READY light off), the control station will emit a three second error tone,  
indicating that the system refused to arm. If a second attempt to arm is made within  
eight seconds after the tone quits, all faulted zones will automatically be bypassed  
and the system will Force Arm. Depending upon how your system was  
grammed at the time of installation, force armed zones will either be permanently  
bypassed until disarming or may return to operation when or if they become  
operable.

The bypass key  
is used to bypass selected zones in your system. A bypassed zone  
will NOT be capable of activating an alarm as it is temporarily removed from your  
system. Bypassing (also referred to as shunting) is most commonly used to allow  
free movement of an area (zone or group of zones) while arming the rest of the  
system or to temporarily remove a zone or zones that require service allowing partial  
use of the system until repaired. When zones are bypassed, the corresponding  
ZONE indicators flash to indicate that they have been removed from operation. The  
flashing will cease 30 seconds after the exit delay expires when the system is armed.

The purpose of heat and smoke detectors is to detect a fire in its earliest stages and  
sound an alarm, giving occupants more time to exit the premises before smoke  
reaches a dangerous level.  
Cl 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  
hazards through proper storage of  
materials and good housekeeping practices. Careless use of combustible materials  
andelectricalappliances or overloading of 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  
to see if undue heat is present. If relatively cool, brace your foot against the bottom  
a
closed door, carefully feel the door and door knob  
slightly. If there is  
of hot air, slam the door quickly and latch it. Unvented fire  
will build up considerable pressure. Be sure that all the household realizes this  
danger.  
Use your neighbors phone or street fire alarm box. The job of extinguishing the  
should be left to the professionals. Too many unforeseen things can occur when  
inexperienced people try to extinguish a fue.  
BE PREPARED  
Perform

drills regularly. Use them to assure recognition of an alarm signal. For  
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 re-entering the house for a missing member who is  
safe.

Smoke Detector Location  
Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with  
Association  
Standard 74.  
The following is from NFPA 74: Smoke detectors shall installed outside of each  
separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each  
additional story of the family living unit including basement and excluding crawl  
spaces and unfinishedattics (see illustration below). For family living units with one  
or more split levels (i.e., adjacent levels with with less than one full story separation  
between levels), a smoke detector required by the above shall suffice for an adjacent  
lower level, including basements.  
EXCEPTION: Where there is an intervening door between one level and the  
adjacent lower level, a smoke detector shall be installed on the lower level.  
Ceiling mounted smoke alarms should be located in the center of the room or hall,  
not less than 4 inches from any wall. When the detector is mounted on a wall, the  
top of the detector should be 4 to 12 inches from the ceiling.  
Do not install smoke alarms where normal ambient temperatures are above  
or below  
Also, do not locate smoke detectors in front of air conditioners, heating registers,  
or other locations where normal air circulation will keep smoke from entering the  
detector.  
Heat from a fire rises to the ceiling, spreads out across the ceiling surface and begins  
to bank down from the ceiling. The comer where the ceiling and wall meet is an air  
space into which heat has difficulty in penetrating. In most  
measures about 4 inches (O.lm) along the ceiling from the comer and 4 inches  
(O.lm) down the as shown in the illustration below. Heat or smoke detectors  
this ‘dead’ air space  
should not be placed in this ‘dead’ air space.” (See illustration on next page).
