THIS MANUAL IS FURNISHED TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR
SECURITY SYSTEM AND BECOME PROFICIENT IN ITS OPERATION.
ALL USERS OF YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM SHOULD READ AND FOLLOW
THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS IN THIS BOOKLET AND, IF
POSSIBLE, PRACTICE ON THE KEYPAD CONTROL WHILE YOUR
PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER IS ON SITE. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD
RESULT IN THE SECURITY SYSTEM NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS
BOOKLET SHOULD BE KEPT IN AN ACCESSIBLE LOCATION FOR THE
LIFE OF THE SECURITY SYSTEM. IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND ANY
PART OF THIS MANUAL YOU SHOULD NOTIFY YOUR INSTALLING
COMPANY SHOWN ON PAGE 1.
The SECURITY CONTROL can be turned on (ARMED) and off (DISARMED) by
entering a 4 or 6 digit code into the Keypad Control, which is similar to a
telephone keypad. If your Security Control has been so programmed, you
may be able to turn on (ARM) your System by simply pressing the [STAY] or
[EXIT] key. The system must always be disarmed using a 4 or 6 digit code.
The LED keypad includes up to 35 lights and a built-in electronic sounder.
These provide specific information relating to the status of the security system
which is described in the booklet. Understanding what the lights and sounds
mean will help you to easily operate your system.
Keep in mind, the level of security you will obtain with this system
relates specifically with two major factors:
1. The quantity, quality and placement of security devices attached to
this system.
2. The knowledge you have of the security system and how that
knowledge is utilized in a weekly test of the complete system.
You should be aware of the following facts when preparing a
safety/security plan for your home/business.
Your security system is an electronic device and is subject to failure or
malfunction. Do not rely on it as your single source of security.
Your system should be tested weekly.
Your system will not work without power.
Warning devices will need to be loud enough, wired correctly, and properly
placed to provide notification of an alarm event.
Smoke and heat detectors may not detect heat and smoke in all situations.
Use qualified security professionals to install and maintain your security
system.
It may be possible to arm the security system without the backup battery
connected. Your periodic test should be done with AC Power removed to
verify the battery is connected and adequately charged.
Care should be taken to plug in and restrain the AC Transformer after
testing.
Please read the following information and instructions carefully
before operating your security control system.
