LYNXR-2SIA False Alarm Prevention Features

Many false alarms are caused by simple accidents, like forgetting to close a door when you leave. The LYNXR-2SIA includes several features that help prevent false alarms and some of these are optional or programmable. Although turning off some of these features may provide additional security, it may also increase the chance of false alarms. Your installer can help you decide whether to use the features or not. The following provides a brief explanation of the features included with your security system that help prevent false alarms from occurring, and what you should do if such alarms occur.

Exit/Entry Delays: Your security system has been programmed with delay times that allow you to exit the premises after arming, and to disarm the system upon entry, before an alarm occurs. If you leave the premises too late when exiting, or disarm too late when arriving home, it will cause a false alarm. If an alarm occurs, you should disarm the system immediately, and wait for your monitoring company to call you.

Exit Alarms: Leaving the premises and forgetting to close the door is a common cause of false alarms. The security system will sound an alarm, and display EA, indicating, “exit alarm”. The security system provides extra time for you to disarm the system before dialing your monitoring company. Disarming the system immediately may prevent a call to your monitoring company.

Exit Time Restart-Exit Delay Restart/Reset: If you leave the premises and enter again before the exit delay has expired, the system will restart the exit time giving you more time to leave. If there are less than 10 seconds left to exit, the system will sound fast beeps, indicating an alarm will occur soon if you fail to exit or disarm immediately. If this occurs, disarm the system and arm it again when you are ready to leave. The Exit Delay can also be restarted by entering CODE + STAY.

Auto Stay Feature: If you arm the system in the “AWAY” mode from the control’s keypad or an RF keypad but no one exits, the alarm system will automatically change to the “STAY” mode. This will prevent you from tripping alarms by remaining on premises. Disarm the system and arm away again when you are ready to leave.

Burglary Abort Window: Your security system has a delay between the time a burglary alarm sounds, and the time the monitoring company is called. This delay gives you time to disarm the security system before the alarm is reported to the monitoring company. This delay is factory preset at 30 seconds, but may be increased or decreased by your installer.

False Alarms: If a burglary or fire alarm condition occurs and the system has been disarmed, the keypad will display “CA” or cancel. If this was a false alarm, wait for the monitoring company to call you. They will verify your security code or password and prevent them from calling emergency personnel to respond to a false alarm.
