SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Fire Protection

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will sound an

 

alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for

 

important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emer-

 

gency exit routes from your house.

Alarms

When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound, and a message

 

at the keypad will identify the zone(s) causing the alarm. In addition, if your system is

 

connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm

 

sounding, you simply disarm the system.

Memory Of Alarm

When an alarm or trouble condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the

 

zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm or trouble (ex. FIRE,

 

ALARM, CHECK). The display remains until it is cleared by entering the OFF sequence

 

(security code + OFF key) twice.

Phone Access &

Your system may include a phone module that will permit you to access the system via a

Voice Response

Touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. The phone access

Capability

feature will enable you to do the following:

(Optional)

Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the status of the

 

security system.

 

Arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands via the telephone,

 

with voice confirmation provided after each command entry.

Paging Feature

If the paging feature has been programmed for your system, your pager will respond to

 

certain conditions as they occur in your system, and display code numbers indicating the

 

type of condition that has occurred.

 

For detailed information, refer to PAGING FEATURE on page 25.
