Notify by Exception
The Notify by Exception feature allows programmed
pager holders and/or the central station to be notified when
arming or disarming occurs outside of specified time
schedules.
Here are two specific examples of how the Notify by
Exception feature might be used in a business setting:
❑
Every morning you’d like to be notified if your busi-
ness is disarmed after its normal opening time.
❑
Every evening you’d like to be notified if your busi-
ness is armed before its normal closing time.
Page In the Event of...
You can set up the Notify by Exception feature to page in
the following instances:
❑
Send a page if the system is disarmed before the
Opening time schedule begins or after the Opening
time schedule has ended. (Exception Opening)
❑
Send a page if the system is armed before the Closing
time schedule begins or after the Closing time sched-
ule has ended. (Exception Closing)
Who Will Be Paged?
Your system can call up to 5 different pager numbers to
report an Open Exception and/or Closed Exception. You
can request that the central station receive these two
reports as well.
Refer to “Appendix A: User Sheets” on page 29 to see
which pagers have been set up to receive a page for this
feature. Contact the installer if you would like to turn the
Notify by Exception feature on or off for any programmed
pager or the central station.
Who Can Send a Page?
All user codes and keychain touchpads will send a page if
used while Notify by Exception feature is in effect.
What Will the Pager Report?
Exception Opening Reports report the arming level as 111
(1—OFF) and the user that disarmed the system.
Exception Closing Reports report the arming level as 222
(2—STAY) or 333 (3—AWAY), and the user that armed to
that level. See “Notification by Pager” on page 14.
When Will this Feature Be Active?
The most typical setup of this feature makes use of both
Exception Opening and Exception Closing. (It is possible
to use only Exception Opening or only Exception Closing,
however.)

The No Activity Feature
The system can monitor the activity in your home and
automatically call for help if normal activities are not
detected within a defined period of time.
For example, if someone falls and can’t move, the system
will detect that normal activities, such as placing outgoing
calls or opening doors and windows, have not occurred for
a predetermined No Activity time.
The system sounds a low-volume auxiliary alarm to let
you know there may be a problem. If all is well, you can
stop the siren by disarming your system. If no one disarms
the system for 5 minutes, your system calls the central
monitoring station. The central monitoring station will
send emergency personnel to the premises to check out the
situation.
Refer to “Appendix A: User Sheets” on page 29 to see if
the No Activity feature is currently available to you and
A Touchtone phone can be used to set up Notify
by Exception, but touchpads work much better
because of their extensive feedback. See “Appen-
dix C” on page 41 for touchpad and phone pro-
gramming instructions.
