Arming and Disarming the System
Bell/Siren Sounds After Away Arming
Audible Exit Fault
In an attempt to reduce false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault is designed to notify you of an improper exit when
arming the system in the Away mode. In the event that you fail to exit the premises during the allotted exit delay
period, or if you do not securely close the Exit/Entry door, the system will notify you that it was improperly
armed in two ways: the keypad will emit one continuous beep and the bell or siren will sound.
Your installer will tell you if this feature has been enabled on your system. If this occurs:
1.
Re-enter the premises.
2.
Enter your access code to disarm the system. You must do this before the entry delay timer expires.
3.
Follow the Away arming procedure again, making sure to close the entry/exit door properly.
Arming Error
An error tone will sound if the system is unable to arm. This will happen if the system is not ready to arm (i.e.,
sensors are open), or if an incorrect user code has been entered. If this happens, ensure all sensors are secure. Press
[#] and try again, ensuring that a valid access code is entered. Please check with your installer to determine if arm-
ing is inhibited by any other means.
Remote Arming and Disarming
The system can be armed and/or disarmed using the remote wireless key or proximity tag. When arming the sys-
tem by using the Arm button on the wireless key, the system will acknowledge the command by sounding a
single bell squawk (if bell squawk is enabled). When disarming using the Disarm button on the wireless key, the
system will acknowledge the command by sounding two bell squawks (if bell squawk is enabled) that can be
heard from the exterior of the premises.
To arm the system with a proximity tag:
l
Present your proximity tag to a keypad equipped with a proximity sensor anytime the system Ready
indicator is on.
l
If configured by your installer, enter your access code.
To disarm the system with a proximity tag:
l
Present your proximity tag to a keypad equipped with a proximity sensor anytime the system is armed.
(Armed indicator is on) and if configured as required, enter your access code.
l
If you walk through the entry door the keypad will beep. Present your Proximity tag within ____
seconds to avoid an alarm condition.
Using Your System
This section provides additional information about how to use your alarm system.
When Alarm Sounds
The system can generate 3 different alarm sounds:
l
Temporal/pulsed siren = Fire Alarm
l
4 beeps, 5-second pause, 4 beeps = Carbon Monoxide Alarm
l
Continuous siren = Intrusion (Burglary Alarm)
Note:
The priority of signals is fire alarm, carbon monoxide alarm and medical alarm, then burglary alarm.
Note:
Medical alarm is silent. It only results in an alarm transmission to the monitoring station.
Intrusion (Burglary) Alarm Continuous Siren
If you are unsure of the source of the alarm, approach with caution! If the alarm was accidental,
enter your Access Code to silence the alarm. Call your central station to avoid a dispatch.
