Speed Key (Macros)

General Information

The “A”, “B”, “C”, and/or “D” keys can be used to activate a string of commands up to 32 keystrokes each. These commands are known as a macro and are stored in the system’s memory. Typical Speed Key functions include:

•Arming sequences that involve first bypassing certain zones before arming.

•Seldom used but repeatable sequences.

•Relay activation sequences.

Defining

To program a macro, enter your user code + [#] + [D]. The following appears:

ENTER SPEED KEY #

01-32 00=QUIT

Enter the 2-digit Speed Key number (01-32) being defined and press [*]. Enter up to 32 keystrokes. A Speed Key sequence can include different commands. Press the "D" key to separate different commands. For example, you may want to perform the following sequence.

GOTO partition 2

Enter *2

Bypass zones 010 & 011

Press bypass [6], then the zone numbers 010

 

& 011

Arm in maximum mode

Press maximum [4] key

Return to partition 1

Enter *1

To program that Speed Key sequence, type the following:

*2 D 6010011 D 4 D *1 D D

Note that the "D" key is pressed after each command. Press "D" twice to complete the entry and exit.

NOTE: When defining Speed Key sequences, do not use the [#] key to represent Quick Arming. The system uses the code entered in response to the prompt to initiate commands in a Speed Key sequence, so the quick arm key is unnecessary. The system

fire and burglary partitioned security systems with scheduleing specifications

First Alert is a trusted name in safety and security, consistently providing innovative solutions to protect homes and businesses. Their fire and burglary partitioned security systems are specifically designed to ensure comprehensive coverage against threats, offering users peace of mind. These systems utilize advanced technologies to deliver unparalleled performance.

One of the main features of First Alert fire and burglary security systems is the partitioning capability. This allows users to divide their property into separate zones or areas, each with its own security settings. For instance, during daytime, homeowners can enable security solely in specific areas, such as bedrooms and home offices, while keeping other regions like living rooms and kitchens unmonitored. This flexibility helps conserve energy and reduces false alarms, making the system more efficient.

Scheduling is another critical characteristic of First Alert systems. Users have the ability to create customized schedules for when the security system should be active or inactive. For example, a homeowner may set the system to turn on automatically in the evenings when they are away and to remain off during weekends when they are home. This programmable feature enhances user convenience and allows for tailored security solutions that fit individual lifestyles.

First Alert’s systems incorporate the latest technological advancements, including integrated smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. This multidimensional approach means that not only does the user benefit from burglary prevention, but they are also safeguarded against potential fire hazards. The sensors can communicate directly with a central hub, sending real-time alerts to homeowners’ smartphones in case of emergencies.

Moreover, First Alert integrates smart home compatibility, allowing users to connect their security system with various smart devices. This integration means homeowners can monitor their property remotely, receive notifications, and even take immediate action through mobile applications.

Overall, First Alert fire and burglary partitioned security systems stand out due to their unique combination of flexibility, scheduling capabilities, and advanced technology. These features are designed not just to deter potential threats but also to enhance the overall safety and security experience for users. With First Alert, homeowners can enjoy the reassurance that they are taking proactive steps to protect what matters most.
