UNDERSTANDING YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
Your Alarm Lock security system comprises:
Zones.
Your system contains a number of zones, which may be selected for burglary or panic
alarms. Each zone is an independent circuit that protects specific areas of your home, business
or office. For example, your dealer may have set aside a zone for window protection, exit/entry
delay, interior space protection, safe and valuables protection or emergencies. Each zone can
be programmed to react in a specific manner. Be certain that you know what each zone
protects.
The Keypad.
Lets you arm and disarm the system, check the condition of each zone, temporari-
ly bypass individual (or a group of) zones, cancel entry delay, test the alarm device, reset
detection devices, reset a Day Zone indication. Three lights, a sounder and a numerical display
monitor the system.
The Alarm Output.
When any zone is activated, the control panel responds by sounding an
audible alarm and/or alerting a central station (optional). Your dealer has programmed your
system to react in a specific manner to each type of emergency. Learn how your system
responds to these emergencies.
USING YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
The Keypad.
All security system operations are carried out at the keypad. Each key has a special
function (see
KEY
P
AD CO
N
TROLS
)
plus the ability to arm and disarm the system when they are
used in a preselected combination (code).
Arm/Disarm Codes. You
can program different codes for up to four users, each code containing
up to four digits (the use of all 4 digits is recommended). These codes allow you to arm and
disarm your system. Any code may be easily changed so that former users may be denied access
to the system. The
system
will
respond only when an active code has been entered at the keypad.
Selecting Your Codes.
After your dealer installs your system he will show you how to change
your Arm/Disarm Code and how more codes may be added later.

obvious combinations, such as consecutive numbers, your street or telephone number, birth
date, etc., for your Arm/Disarm Codes.
