IDS1600 USER MANUAL
1. Introduction to the IDS1600
The
IDS1600
Control Panel is manufactured to the highest specifica-
tion and will provide many years of service if correctly installed and
maintained. The unit is designed for simple operation yet provides the
maximum protection for you, your family or business. For trouble free
operation please follow the instructions contained in this User Manual.
Your security system consists of a control panel, one or more key-
pads and various sensors and detectors. An enclosure will contain the
control panel which includes the system electronics, fuses and stand-
by battery. There is normally no reason for anyone other than the
installer or service professional to have access to the control panel.
1.1 Notes
Read the entire manual carefully and keep it in an accessible
place.
Your security system should be installed and serviced by a
qualified security professional who should instruct you regarding
the level of protection provided and the operation of the system.
Should you have any questions regarding the operation of the
system, contact your security company representative.
Your system should be tested on a regular basis. Before testing
the system please notify your security company of your intention
to do so.
NEVER
disconnect the mains power as the back-up battery will
eventually discharge thereby causing the control panel to
shutdown.
A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only
intended to alert you and - if included - your central station of an
emergency situation.
Smoke and heat detectors may not detect all fire situations.
