SYSTEM OVERVIEW

General Operation

Zones

Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the sensing device on your entry/exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These numbers appear on the display when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.

Fire Protection

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from the premises.

UL

LYNXR-2 Series is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour backup

battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed.

 

 

Burglary Protection

Your system provides two modes of burglary protection: STAY and AWAY. STAY mode protects the perimeter only, allowing you to freely move inside the premises. AWAY mode protects the entire system. Both modes provide an entry delay time that allows you to reenter the premises without setting off an alarm. For additional security, you can turn the entry delay off when arming the system by using

the

NO DELAY

key in combination with the desired arming key. The system also allows you to bypass

selected zones before arming the system, if desired. Refer to the BYPASSING PROTECTION ZONES section. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening of protected doors and windows while the system is disarmed.

You must turn on ("arm") the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary alarms. To arm the system, enter your user code then press the desired arming key (AWAY or STAY). Refer to the ARMING THE SYSTEM section for detailed procedures and information.

Security Codes

At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal 4-digit security or “master user” code. You must enter the user code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system functions. As an additional security feature, other users who do not need to know your code can be assigned up to 6 different security codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for procedures on adding security codes to the system.

Alarms

When an alarm occurs, the keypad and external sounders will sound for about 15-seconds, and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. After 15-seconds, the siren stops temporarily and voice announcements of the zones in alarm begins. When these zones have been announced, the siren sounds again and the cycle repeats itself, until the system is disarmed (CODE + OFF) or until alarm bell timeout occurs. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed indicating memory of alarm. Refer to the DISARMING THE SYSTEM section for information about clearing the memory of alarm display
