into your system, then it takes only 5 presses of the # key to activate the emergency alarm.

To prevent accidental activation of the panic feature over the phone, you must press the # key 5 times, all at once. If you pause for more than 2 seconds, or press any other key, the panic activation is canceled. The Model 1503 will say “CANCEL” when this happens. If you wish to cancel the emergency alarm before you have activated it, press any other key, wait a few seconds or hang up.

Note that the PANIC BUTTON OVER THE PHONE feature only works if you are logged into the system. In an emergency, if you wish to set off the alarm, simply pick up the phone and repeatedly press the # key until the alarm sounds. Be aware that, under some circumstances, it may be smarter to dial 911 or your police department directly. Also be aware that your telephone will be unusable while the Model 1503 dials out.

Once the emergency alarm has been activated, you must disarm the system as described in 2 - SECURITY to silence the alarm. If the dial out delay has passed, then the in house phone will be disconnected, and you must disarm the system from the console to silence the alarms.
