SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Features

General Information

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on the configuration of your system. The system consists of a master keypad for controlling system operation, various wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and optional smoke or combustion detectors to provide early fire warning. In addition, optional wireless keypads may have been installed to allow you to control the system away from the master keypad. The system may also be controlled from a remote telephone and can be used as a speaker phone.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status, display appropriate information on the keypad display, and initiate appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station, and may also be capable of two-way voice communication with the central station. Certain features apply only to LYNXR-2SIA version of the control.
