Nuisance prevention® circuitry

Your system has Directed’s Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC). It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.

Example

If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, NPC will interpret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, NPC ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.

If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the security system while it is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that a sensor that is continually being triggered will remain bypassed.

The vehicle doors are protected by NPC differently. If your secu- rity system is triggered by an open door for three full cycles, the system will bypass the doors until the trigger ceases.

Note: Arming and disarming the system does not reset this function! The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for it to not trigger for 60 minutes, or to turn on the igni- tion. If testing your system, it is important to remember that the NPC programming can cause zones to be bypassed and appear to stop working. If five chirps are heard when disarming, NPC has been engaged. If you wish to clear the NPC memory, turn the ignition on.
