If the Power Goes Out
Note
In the event your system
loses power, you must set
the time (See “Setting the
Time” on page 12.), when
power is restored.
Your system has a backup battery that keeps your system operational up to 24 hours during a
power failure. An optional feature allows your system to alert the central monitoring station if the
power is off for more than 15 minutes.
Conditions, Displays and Sounds
Your security system uses a variety of different alarm sirens, status beeps, and trouble beeps to
communicate with you. This section describes the different sounds and what they mean. Try to
familiarize yourself with the differences. You will hear sounds each time you tell your security
system to do something, like arm or disarm. Some sounds you will hear only when there is a
problem with the system, like a low battery. There are sounds you will only hear in an emer-
gency. Getting to know your system sounds allows you to react quickly and appropriately to the
messages you hear.
