The ADT Home Security System
Standard Equipment
|
|
| The master control panel is housed in a metal box. It is typically |
|
|
| |
|
|
| mounted in an |
|
|
| control panel processes the information sent to it by the system’s |
|
|
| sensors and keypad. It also contains a battery that allows the system |
|
|
| to operate during a power failure. When an alarm occurs, the master |
|
|
| control panel sends a message over the telephone line to an ADT |
|
|
| Customer Monitoring Center. |
| Master Control Panel | Do not open the master control panel unless an ADT | |
|
|
| Representative instructs you to do so. |

The keypad is mounted on the wall near either an entry or exit door. You can use it to arm and disarm the system, and to change other system options. Your keypads may be either a Premium or Standard style (see page 7).
| You can also use the keypad’s emergency panic buttons to signal a |
Keypad (Premium Style Shown) | fire, medical or police emergency (see page 10 for more information). |
|
One sensor is placed in or on the frame and body of each door or window that is protected. If the door or window is opened while the system is on, an alarm sounds. An alarm signal is sent to an ADT Customer Monitoring Center.
