Disarming
To disarm the panel, enter the premises through the desig-
nated entry/exit door. The keypad will emit a steady beep to
warn that you must disarm the system. During the last 10
seconds of entry delay the panel will pulse the keypad
beeper on and off rapidly to warn the entry delay is about to
expire.
Enter a valid Access Code at the keypad. If an error is made,
re-enter the code correctly. When a correct code is entered
the keypad will turn off the ‘Armed’ light and stop the keypad
buzzer.
If an alarm occurred while the panel was armed the ‘Mem-
ory’ light and the zones which caused the alarm will be flash-
ing. Press the [#] key to return the keypad to the Ready
state.
Event Buffer (Event Log)
The panel will store the last 500 events that have occurred
on the system. Each event will contain the time, date, parti-
tion and the event itself along with the zone number, access
code number or any other information pertaining to the
event.
If the Event Buffer Follows Swinger Shutdown feature is
enabled (Section [013], option 7) the event buffer will not
store events after the swinger shutdown level has been
reached. This will prevent the panel from overwriting the
entire buffer if a problem exists. The event buffer can be
viewed three different ways. It can be viewed through an
LCD keypad, printed on-site using the PC5400 printer mod-
ule or it can be uploaded through the DLS software.
Viewing the Event Buffer
The following is the procedure for viewing the event buffer
through the LCD keypad:
• Step 1 - Enter [*] [6] [Master/Access Code]
• Step 2 - Select ‘View Event Buffer’
The keypad will display the Event Number, Partition, Time
and Date of the event in question. Use the [*] key to toggle
between this information and the event itself. Use the arrow
keys (< >) to scroll through the events in the buffer. When
you have finished viewing the event buffer press the [#] key
to exit.
NOTE:
When viewing events for partitions 3 to 8 on an
LCD5500 v2.x and lower keypad, they will show as being
logged in the “System Area”.

] Commands
[*][1] Zone Bypassing
Users can bypass individual zones using the [*][1] keypad
command. This command can be used if users want to have
access to an area while the Partition is armed, or to bypass a
defective zone (bad contact, damaged wiring) until service
can be provided.
A bypassed zone will not cause an alarm.
When the partition is disarmed, all zones that were
bypassed using [*][1] will be unbypassed, except for 24-hr
zones.
If the Code Required for Bypass option is enabled, an
access code will be required to enter the Bypass mode. Only
access codes with the Bypass attribute enabled will be able
to bypass zones (see section ’[*][5] Programming Access
Codes’ ).
Bypassing Zones with an LCD keypad:
Start with disarming the system.
1. Press [*] to enter the function menu. The keypad will dis-
play “Press [*] for < > Zone Bypass”.
2. Press [1] or [*], then your [access code] (if required). The
keypad will display “Zone Search < > Zone Name”.
3. Enter the two-digit number of the zone(s) to be bypassed
(01-64). You can also use the < > keys to find the zone to be
bypassed, and then press [*] to select the zone.
The keypad will display “Zone Search < > “Zone Name?”. “B”
will appear on the display to show that the zone is bypassed.
If a zone is open (e.g., door with door contact is open), the
keypad will display “Zone Search < > “Zone Name” O”. If you
bypass the open zone, a “B” will replace the “O”.
4. To unbypass a zone, enter the two-digit number of the
zone(s) to be bypassed (01-64). You can also use the < >
keys to find the zone, and then press [*] to select the zone.
The “B” will disappear from the display to show that the zone
is no longer bypassed.
5. To exit bypassing mode and return to the Ready state,
press [#].
Bypassing Zones with a LED/ICON keypad:
Start with disarming the system
1. Press [*][1], then your [access code] (if required).
2. Enter the two-digit number of the zone(s) to be bypassed
(01-64). On LED keypads, the zone light will turn on to indi-
cate that the zone is bypassed.
3. To unbypass a zone, enter the two-digit number of the
zone (01-64). On LED keypads,the zone light will turn off to
indicate that the zone is not bypassed.
4. To exit bypassing mode and return to the Ready state,
press [#].
Other Bypass Features:
The following features are also available on the [*][1] zone
bypassing menu:
• Bypass Recall: Press [99] while in the [*][1] menu to
recall the last set of bypassed zones.
• Clear Bypasses: Press [00] while in the [*][1] menu to
clear all bypassed zones.
• Bypass Groups: Users can program a group of zones
to be bypassed (bypass group). Each partition can have
a different bypass group. To program a bypass group, in
the [*][1] menu, select the zones to be bypassed. Press
[95] to save the group. To recall the group, press [*][1]
followed by [91].
If the Code Required for Bypass option is enabled, the
Master code or Supervisor codes must be used to
access this feature.
NOTE:
The zone attribute for zone bypassing must be
enabled (see Section [101]-[164] Zone Attributes, Option 4).
NOTE:
Hold-up zones should not be part of Bypass Groups.
NOTE:
A zone that is manually bypassed via [*][1] will
bypass the alarm, fault, and tamper conditions when DEOL is
used.
NOTE:
If a 24-hour zone is bypassed, ensure that the zone is
restored or disabled before removing the bypass.

[*][2] Trouble Display
The panel constantly monitors itself for several different trou-
ble conditions. If a trouble condition is present, the Trouble
light will be ON and the keypad will beep twice every 10 sec-
onds. The trouble beep can be silenced by pressing any key
on any keypad. If Bell Squawk on Trouble is enabled (sec-
tion [014], option[5]), the bell will squawk every 10 seconds
when a trouble condition is present.
NOTE:
If there is an AC trouble, the keypad will not beep
for a General System Trouble.
To view trouble conditions from an LED or ICON keypad:
1. Press [*][2] to enter the trouble menu.
2. The keypad will flash the Trouble light. The zone indica-
tor lights corresponding to the present trouble conditions
will be ON.
