ALPHA DISPLAY WINDOW: A 2-line,32-character Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that displays protection point identification and system status, messages, and user instructions.

PERIMETER ONLY for a full explanation of the STAY key.

4 MAXIMUM : Arms in manner similar

to AWAY mode, but eliminates the entry delay period, thus providing maximum

1 OFF

Disarms the burglary portion of

protection. An alarm will occur

the system, silences alarms and audible trouble indicators, and clears visual alarm trouble after the problem has been corrected.

2 AWAY : Completely arms both

perimeter and interior burglary protection by sensing an intruder's movements through protected interior areas as well as guarding protected doors, windows, etc. Late arrivals can enter through an entry delay zone without causing an alarm if the system is disarmed before the entry delay time expires.

3 STAY : Arms the perimeter burglary

protection, guarding protected doors, windows and other perimeter protection points, and sounds an alarm if one is opened. Also allows automatic bypassing of certain areas which permits movement within your house without causing an alarm. Late arrivals can enter through an entry delay zone without causing an alarm if the system is disarmed before the entry delay time expires. See ARMING

immediately upon opening any protection point, including entry delay zones.

5 TEST : Tests the system and alarm

sounder if disarmed.

6 BYPASS

:

Removes

individual

protection zones from being monitored by the system. Displays previously bypassed protection zones.

7 INSTANT : Arms in manner similar

to STAY mode, but turns off the entry delay period, offering greater security while inside and not expecting any late arrivals. An alarm will occur immediately upon opening any perimeter protection point, including entry delay zones.

8 CODE : Allows the entry of additional

user codes that can be given to other users of the system.
