GE 60-875 How You Communicate to Your System, Control Panel, Remote Handheld Touchpad, Telephone

Outdoor Motion Sensors detect motion in a protected outdoor area. When motion is detected, the system may respond by sounding chimes or turning on outside lights. These sensors are not used for intrusion detection.

Door/Window Sensors detect the opening of a door or window.

Smoke Sensors detect smoke and a significant rise in temperature. They have a built in siren that sounds when smoke or a significant rise in temperature is detected.

Freeze Sensors detect furnace failure. If the inside temperature drops below 41°F, the sensor will notify the panel. The sensor will send a restore signal to the panel when the temperature rises to 50°F.

Carbon Monoxide Sensors detect carbon monoxide. They have a built in siren that sounds when carbon monoxide is detected.

How You Communicate to Your System

Note

The Master Access Code default is 1-2-3-4 when the security system is shipped from the factory. You should change your code after your system is installed (see “Programming Your Sys- tem”).

Sending commands or instructing your security system is done through key presses on the panel, touchpads, or through the use of a remote telephone.

Control Panel

You can enter commands for your security system through simple key presses on the panel. Depending on how your system is programmed, you may need to enter an access code for certain commands. An access code is a numeric code that allows authorization to operate your security system.

Remote Handheld Touchpad

This touchpad gives you the option to enter commands from any room in your house. You can enter commands through simple key presses on the touchpad.

Dialog Touchtalk 2-Way RF Touchpad

This touchpad gives you the option to enter commands from a remote location (away from the control panel) in your house. It also allows you to hear panel messages when the System Status button is pressed.

Keychain Touchpad

Keychain Touchpads are handy for simple arming, disarming and light control func- tions. They are portable and can be carried off-site in a purse or pocket

Telephone

Touchtone telephones can be used to communicate with your system while you are off-site. Ask your installer if you have this feature.
