Introduction
The Escort 4580 Voice Assisted Security Control provides easy to understand audible information about the status of your security system, and makes operation simple by prompting the user through each operation. The Escort 4580 allows any touch tone telephone to act as a keypad for your security system. The telephone could be any phone that is on the same line as your security system, or an outside telephone which may be used to call the security system.
Some optional features described in this manual may not be available on your security system. You will not hear the voice prompts for any option that is not activated on your system.
In this manual, the voice messages are printed in bold and are enclosed in quotes, as shown here:

About Your Security System
Your DSC security equipment has been designed to give you the greatest possible flexibility and convenience. To fully benefit from the features of your security system, you should read this manual and the Instruction Manual provided with your system very carefully. Have your installer instruct you on system operation and on which features have been activated on your system. All users of the system should be instructed on its use. Fill out the System Information page in your Security System Instruction Manual and store it and the manual in a safe place for future reference.
Important Note
A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and, if included, a monitoring station of an emergency situation. Security systems are generally very reliable but they may not work under all conditions and they are not a substitute for prudent security practices or life and property insurance. Your security system should be installed and serviced by qualified security professionals who should instruct you on the level of protection that has been provided and on system operation.
