Disarming the System

1Enter your premises through the Entry/Exit door. The keypad will sound a steady tone to remind you to disarm the system before your Entry Delay time expires.

2Enter your User Code and press D. The red ARMED light will go out, indicating that the system has been disarmed.

If you enter an invalid code, the keypad will beep 4 times, signifying an error. Re-enter your code immediately.

10 seconds before Entry Delay expires, the keypad will emit a pulsing warning tone.

Alarm Indication / Silencing an Alarm

If the red ARMED light is flashing and “ALARM” is displayed, an alarm occurred while you were out. Proceed with caution! If you suspect that an intruder may still be on the premises, leave immediately and call authorities from a neighbor's phone.

To silence an audible alarm:

1Enter your code and press J. After the system is disarmed, the window will continue

to display “ALARM” followed by the zone(s) violated.

2To reset the display, note the zones violated, then press C.

Ambush (Optional - Ambush programmed? !YES !NO) (Your Ambush Code is __ __ )

The Ambush Code (optional) is a 2-digit code that is entered just prior to your Disarm Code. If an intruder forces you to disarm your system, (a) enter your Ambush Code; (b) enter your Disarm Code; (c) pressD.

Example: If your User Code is 1234 and your Ambush Code is 99, press 991234D.

This will send a silent alarm to the central station. The red ARMED light will go out and the window will display “SYSTEM READY”, as if the system were merely disarmed. There will be no indication that an alarm has been sent.
