To perform designated “Hold-Down” Func-
tions, selected key must be held down for
about 2 seconds, until sounder beeps. Note:
Those functions identified by an asterisk (* )
have secondary utility functions for installer’s
use only. Do not attempt to access these func-
tions within 10 seconds after disarming.
Key [1]: TEST
Momentarily sounds the burglar alarm. If no
alarm is heard, or if it is weak, the battery may
need replacing. Make this test weekly. (To per-
form this function, hold down Key [1] until
alarm sounds.)
Key [2]: DISPLAY BYPASS
Numerically displays all zones that have
been bypassed using Key [S]. To perform this
function, hold down Key [2] until the sounder
beeps, and continue to hold it down until all
zones have been displayed.
Key [3]: DISPLAY STATUS
Numerically displays all zones that are in
“trouble”. To perform this function, hold down
Key [3] until the sounder beeps, and continue
to hold it down until all zones have been dis-
played.
Key [4]: INSTANT PROTECTION*
Cancels entry delay period when arming.
The delay is restored after you disarm the sys-
tem. To perform this function, hold down Key
[4] until the sounder beeps.
Key [5]: CHIME* (Chime Zone(s): _________)
This will enable a feature that sounds a
“chime” (beep) at the keypad each time a pro-
grammed zone (Entry Zone, in the MA854) is
opened. The Chime Mode functions when the
alarm system is disarmed (off), but it will al-
ways operate on a Never-Arm Zone (see
GLOSSARY). To disable the chime feature,
hold down Key [5] again (until sounder
beeps).
Key [6]: TELCO TEST*
(Optional; Enabled? YES
NO)
Pressing the key tests your phone lines (the
sounder will start to pulse). If the line is good,
the pulsing will stop: if not, a steady tone will
sound. (To perform this function, hold down
Key [6] until sounder beeps.) Reset the
sounder using Key [9]. Call for service, if nec-
essary.
Key [7]: FAULT FIND
For installer’s use only; holding down Reset
Key [9] or arming the panel will cancel the
Fault-Find Mode.
Key [8]: PROGRAM
(Alarm functions are disabled while in the
Program Mode.) Allows you to enter the Pro-
gram Mode, where you can program up to 5
personal User Codes (up to 4 in the MA854),
including a Service Code (MA1008 and
MA1010 only, optional). Refer to SELECTING
AND PROGRAMMING YOUR CODES for
more information. (To perform this function,
hold down Key [8] until sounder beeps.)
Key [9]: RESET
Resets any sounder indication, system-
trouble indication, Day-Zone indication (in
MA1008 and MA1010, may be programmed to
reset Day-Zone condition), and Fault-Find
Mode. After an alarm occurs and the system
is disarmed, the numerical display will still in-
dicate which non-24-Hour Zone(s) caused the
alarm. Key [9] will clear the display. (To per-
form this function, hold down Key [9] until
sounder beeps.)
Key [S]: ALARM HISTORY
This will flash the red ARMED/ALARM light
to indicate the last alarm condition. The nu-
merical display will indicate the zones vio-
lated. History is not lost when the system is
rearmed; the previous alarm history will re-
main in alarm memory until automatically re-
set by a new alarm condition. To perform this
function, hold down Key [S] until the sounder
beeps, then continue to hold it down until all
information has been displayed.
