2. Everyday Operation
There are several different ways of setting the system. For all methods (except using a keyswitch or telecommand) you must enter your access code at the keypad. The keyswitch method uses a key in a special switch fitted to your premises. "Setting the System" below describes each method. Ask your Installer to provide the method that suits your site best.
During installation the Installer programs the system to create an exit route for your premises. When setting the system you must follow this route to leave the premises. You must also follow a specified entry route when going into the premises in order to unset the system. If you stray from these routes you may cause a false alarm.
How Do I Know if the System is Working?
The lamp always glows when the mains power is present. If the lamp flashes slowly then mains power is off, and the system is working from its internal battery. If the lamp is dark then the system is dead.
When the system is set, the display shows which Level is set. However, the Installer can program the system to hide this display. Ask your Installer how the system is set up.
If you wish to test the system and its detectors, see "4. Special Functions - Testing the System" on page 22.
Setting the System
Your alarm system provides several different methods for setting:
Timed Set.
Final Door Set.
Exit Terminate Button.
Part Setting (including Instant Set or Silent Set).
Keyswitch Setting.
Telecommand Setting.
Ask your Installer which method is fitted, and then use the following pages for detailed instructions.
Timed Set
With Timed Set the system sets after a programmed exit time has expired. Ask your Installer to make sure the exit time is long enough for you to leave the premises and close the final door.
