Bypass a Zone (For all Zones and Modes)
There may be occasions when you would like to temporarily prevent the Sensors in a Zone from triggering the alarm. In this situation you can bypass a Zone when setting the alarm. Once the alarm is disarmed the Bypass setting will be removed.
Step 1 - Select the Zone to bypass. Before arming the system, press and hold the Zone button for three seconds. The Control Center will sound a long tone while the button is pressed. After three seconds the tone will stop and the Zone LED indicator will turn on.
The Zone has been set to bypass Note: Sensors in a bypassed Zone will not trigger the Alarm, Alert or Chime functions.
Step 2 - Arm system (HOME or AWAY).
Step 3 - The Bypass setting can be removed by pressing and holding the Zone button again for three seconds or by disarming the system.
ACCESSORIES - Silent Alert, Alarm Siren,
and Signal Repeater
Silent Alert
The Silent Alert is designed to provide a visual warning BEFORE entering the home if an alarm has been triggered.
You can add any number of Silent Alert LED indicators to the Choice Alert System. To add a Silent Alert to the system, you will need to link it with the Control Center.
Adding a Silent Alert™
Step 1 - Open the Silent Alert by gently inserting a small blade screwdriver
into the tab slot on one end and gently pry upwards. This action releases the cover from the base. This procedure can be easily completed once the Silent Alert is mounted as well. Install two (2) new “AA” batteries according to the polarity markings in the battery compartment.
Step 2 - Press and hold the Learn button inside the Silent Alert. One of the LED indicators on the front of the Silent Alert will begin to flash.
Step 3 - While continuing to press the Learn button in the Silent Alert, press and hold the Mute button on the side of the Control Center for three seconds. The Control Center will sound two beeps and flash the green power indicator, a test signal to the Silent Alert. When the Silent Alert receives the test Signal’, the LED indicator will stop flashing, indicating it has been linked with your Control Center. Reattach the Silent Alert to the base.
Anytime the alarm is triggered (in Armed HOME or AWAY), the siren sounds, and the Control Center will send a signal to the Silent Alert to begin alternately flashing its LED indicators. The Silent Alert will continue to flash the LED indicators until the Control Center sends a disarm signal.
Note: Even if the Control Center is disconnected from power or destroyed, the Silent Alert will continue to flash LED indicators.
