Operating Instructions
The ARC10 wireless key allows you to arm and
disarm your alarm system, as well as perform other
keypad functions, from a unit small enough to keep
in your pocket. Together with your installer, you
can decide which functions you wish to have
accessible from your portable key.
To activate any one of the four selected func-
tions, press and hold the appropriate button for
two seconds. The functions will be etched on each
button. These can be changed by the installer by
placing labels on the button that needs to be
changed.

False Alarm Prevention
The ARC10 has a slide cover, used to cover 2 or
all of the buttons, to prevent accidental activation.
The ARC10 is shipped with a red panic button
(
).
The color difference will make this button easy
to identify to ensure the correct key is pressed in
a panic situation.

Signals will not be received if the key is not
within the range of the wireless receiver.

Testing the Wireless Key
When any key is pressed on the ARC10 to per-
form a function, its battery status is sent to the
receiver. If the batteries are low, the
Trouble
light
on your system’s keypads will turn ON. If this oc-
curs, the key’s batteries must be replaced.
Do not use a
Fire

Auxiliary
or
Panic
key to test your ARC10 unit as pressing
these buttons will always notify your monitoring
station of a non-medical emergency.
