POSSIBLE, PRACTICE ON THE KEYPAD CONTROL WHILE YOUR PROFESSIONAL
INSTALLER IS ON SITE.
The SECURITY CONTROL can be turned on (ARMED) and off (DISARMED) by

keypad. If your Security Control has been so programmed, you may be able to turn on
(ARM) your System by simply pressing STAY or EXIT. The system must always be
Disarmed using a 4 or 6 digit code. The LCD keypad includes 9 lights and a 32-
character liquid crystal display 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.

RELATES SPECIFICALLY WITH TWO MAJOR FACTORS:
1. The quantity, quality, and placement of security devices attached to this
