Refer to the User Sheets in Appendix A to determine which light number is associated with which lamp.

Basic Output Control

Your system may be set up with programmed outputs that control special hardware installed in your system. These outputs are usually set up to turn on automatically in response to certain events.

Your installer may have configured your system so that you can control some outputs from your touchpad. Have the installer list and explain any outputs that are programmed for your control. Use the following procedure to turn an output on or off.

To turn the output on or off:

From any touchpad press 7 + 7 + output number. If the output was already activated, it will shut off. If the output was off, it will activate.

Checking the Status of Your System

Checking the system status means finding out about the current condition of your system. This includes finding out if any sensors are open or currently bypassed, whether or not the AC power and backup battery are okay, the nature of the most recent alarm, and more, depending on the features in use and the equipment in your system.

Check the system status if:

•Your system sounds trouble beeps (five short beeps every minute).

•Your touchpads display, “ALARM,” and “POLICE,” “AUXILIARY,” or “FIRE.”

•Your touchpads display, “PRESS STATUS” or a blinking ☛.

If an alarm or system trouble condition has occurred, it is displayed on a touchpad the first time you perform a Short or Full Status check. Performing a system status check a second time dis- plays the system status including any trouble conditions.

If any alarm or system trouble is active, it continues to show up in every status check until the system is disarmed.

Short System Status

A Short Status indicates the current arming level, sensor status (whether open or bypassed), low battery, supervisory, auxiliary phone, AC power or backup battery failures.

To get a Short System Status:

Press * (* is labeled Status.)

The system sounds beeps according to the current arming level (one for Level 1, two for Level 2, three for Level 3). Touchpads display and optional voice modules announce the status informa- tion, for example, “SYSTEM IS OK,” or “SENSOR 02 OPEN.”

Full System Status

A Full Status combines the Short Status information with added details about specific system features.

To get a Full System Status:

1. Press * + *.

Interior sirens sound beeps according to the current arming level. Touchpads display and optional voice modules announce the status information, for example, “SYSTEM IS OK,” “SENSOR 03 BYPASSED,” “SYSTEM BATTERY IS OK,” “AC POWER IS OK.” If the optional Energy Saver module or RF Thermostat is installed, the system displays/announces its status (on/off) and the current temperature (if on).

Panic Alarms

Panic alarms are easily activated from any touchpad to quickly alert the central monitoring sta- tion to a Fire, Police, or Auxiliary emergency so the correct personnel can be dispatched immedi-
