shows faulted zones and allows you to turn the system on/off by using the buttons. Your system
will have one or more keypads.
ON/OFF: These terms refer to the burglary portion of your security system. There are several
levels of operation which allow you to protect part of your premises while you remain inside. Fire
sensors and other emergency and environmental conditions are always active and ready and are
not affected in any way by turning the burglary portion of your Security System on or off. Armed,
a term that is sometimes used means system on and Disarmed means system off. See ON-
INSTANT, ON-STAY and STAY.
ON/OFF INDICATOR: Red light in the upper portion of the keypad labeled Armed. When lit,
some part of the burglar alarm system is on; when not lit, the burglary portion of the system is off.
ON-STAY: A system setting that turns on the perimeter protection of the building but allows
movement throughout the inside.
PANIC BUTTON: A push button which allows you to signal the Central Station that you need
immediate assistance. Your system has programmable Keypad Send Help Alerts which can also
serve as Panic buttons.
PERIMETER ZONE: A perimeter zone is a group of points that protect the exterior of your
premises. Your outside doors and windows would be programmed as a perimeter zone.
SENSOR: The actual alarm sensor, detector or device installed to detect an intrusion, fire, or
environmental problem. Examples include: door contacts, window contacts, motion sensors, glass
break sensors, smoke detectors, rate of rise heat detectors, temperature sensors, flood/water
sensors, and carbon monoxide gas detectors.
SILENT CONDITION: Most types of alarms and troubles alert you with the keypad sounder
and the sirens, horns, or speakers located in your premises. The intent is to advise you of the
alarm or trouble and allow you to respond promptly. The audible sounds also let an intruder know
that they have been detected and will hopefully scare them away. In some circumstances, an
audible alarm might put your life in danger and so those alarms are programmed as silent
conditions. For an example see DURESS.
SYSTEM: Your Security System is composed of three main parts: 1) the Control Panel which
functions as the system brain and the link to the Monitoring Agency (Central Station), 2) the
Keypad(s) which provide you with system status and allow you input commands, 3) Security
Sensors such as door and window contacts, motion sensors, smoke detectors and other sensors as
required to detect intrusion, fire and other conditions as needed for your premises.
USER CODE: A user code is a 4 digit code which is required to operate the system. The system
supports up to 6 separate user codes. The system supports one master user who can add/delete
other user codes. Two of the user codes may be dedicated to special functions as defined by your
alarm company at the time of installation. (See the User Code List in the back of this manual)
ZONE: A zone is a collection of sensors with common characteristics grouped together for your
operating convenience. The system will support 6 zones or groupings.
