up battery. These batteries only last 3-5 years.
Displayed Bypass:
Holding down key 2 until it beeps will display any zones that have been bypassed
Reset Button:
Key 9 is the reset button it has to be pressed and held down for 3 seconds in order to reset
your system. A tone will be heard to indicate that the alarm has been reset. This button is used to
clear the alarm history or to reset the smoke detectors after a fire alarm. The fire/trouble light
may take up to 1 minute to clear off the keypad.
Deleting Entry Delay:
When arming they system, hold key 4 down for three seconds until a beep is heard, then
enter your code number. This will arm the system and take away the 30 second entry delay. It
does not take away the 30 second exit time. For example, when one person leaves early and the
other is still asleep, there will be no delay time for an intruder to enter. A rapid flashing light will
indicate the entry delay has been cancelled.
Alarm History:
After the alarm has been violated the zone number will continue to flash on the keypad
until the keypad has been reset. To check for an alarm history press and hold the bypass key.
This can be confused with an open zone - only the green light will be steady.
Panic Alarm:
Press the * and the # button simultaneously.
This will instantly set the alarm off. If the system was not armed when the panic buttons were hit
your personal code will need to be entered twice to turn the sirens off.
Fire/Trouble:
Not all alarms have smoke detectors tied into the security system. If your smoke detectors have a
9 volt battery that needs to be changed, they are not a part of the security system.
Smoke Detectors do need to be cleaned at least once a year. This can be done with a vacuum or
a can of spray air.
If the smoke alarm has been activated and the sirens are going off you will need to enter
your personal code once if the system was on, or twice if the system was off. Press and hold key
9 to reset the system. After 30 seconds the fire/trouble light will clear.
Please Note: If you are connected to a monitoring service the fire department will be dispatched.
The monitoring company does not call to verify fire alarm signals.
Locating Main Alarm Panel/Power
It is very important to find the control panel and know how to disable the alarm in case of
emergency (ex: keypad failure or power surge). The control panel is located in a white metal box
hanging on a wall in a basement or closet area. You will need a screwdriver to open the box.
