Better understanding of your system is assured if you
take time to read the definitions in
APPENDIX A
at
the end of this manual. However, if this is not your
first alarm system, then simply read on.
Control Pushbuttons
When the keypad cover is closed, as shown in
Figure 1, only two pushbuttons are visible - the top
panel controls:
Key
Task
Advance from item to item within a given
menu.
Review status messages one by one
and also select a displayed option.
With the keypad uncovered (see Figure 4), the
special-function keys are visible. The tasks of these
keys are explained in the relevant sections of this
guide.
Multi-Function Transmitter
Your system responds to signals sent by a 4-button
miniature ‘keyfob’
transmitter (MCT- 234) that you
and other users can carry. The function of each key
is indicated in Figure 3 on the right. Your installer can
program the AUX (auxiliary) button to perform
various tasks, as required.

Keyfob Transmitter
Pressing AWAY and HOME together for 2 sec.
initiates PANIC alarm. Pressing AWAY twice
within 2 sec. initiates Latchkey arming.
Note:
For UL-listed systems, the AUX button shall
not be programmed to activate any output
A. Controlling a gate or another electrical device:
Pressing the AUX button opens/closes an
electrically-controlled gate, or controls a chosen
electrical device.
B. Arming the system in the INSTANT mode
(without an entry delay): Pressing the AUX button
immediately after arming, during exit delay,
causes the system to be armed without an entry
delay. This means that entering the protected
premises via any zone will trigger an immediate
alarm. You and other holders of keyfob
transmitters will have no problem, because you
can disarm the system before entering by
pressing the DISARM (
) button on your
transmitter before entry.
C. Getting status information:
Upon pressing the
AUX button on your transmitter, the voice module
announces the system status over the
loudspeaker.
Disarming by a keyfob whose battery voltage is
low:
If you try to disarm the system with a keyfob whose
battery voltage is low, a protest beep will be heard
for 15 seconds (if this beep is enabled by the
installer). During this period you should press again
the disarm button of the keyfob or control panel (for
the control panel, user code is required) to disarm
the system. If you perform this action during the 15
seconds period, the Low Bat message will be stored
in the event log.
If the disarm button is not pressed again during the
15 seconds period, perform either of the following
actions:
A.
Press AWAY twice to arm the system, otherwise
the system will not be armed and an
acknowledgement (from the user that he knows
about the Low Bat) will not be stored in the event
log.
B.
Press AWAY and then press disarm button, to
acknowledge, otherwise the acknowledgement
will not be stored in the event log.
Voice Announcements
The pre-recorded voice announcements respond to
your commands by announcing what the system is
doing and by prompting you to perform certain
actions. They also announce alarms, troubles and
identify the source of each event.
