Tyco PC1150 Master Code, Arming the System, Bypassed Zones, Trouble Indications, Ready Light

Master Code

The 4-digit Master Code is used to arm and disarm the security system, to program additional Access Codes and to change other system features. The Master Code will be supplied to you by your installer. All keypad entries are made by pressing one key at a time.

Arming the System

Check the following items before arming the system:

Bypassed Zones

If the “System” light is ON, ensure that zones are intentionally bypassed before arming the system (See Zone Bypassing section).

Trouble Indications

The “System” light is also used to warn of trouble conditions in the system. If the “System” light is ON, check to see what the trouble condition is and call for service. (See Viewing Trouble Conditions section).

Ready Light

If the “Ready” light is NOT ON, check to see that all doors and windows are closed and that motion is stopped in areas covered by motion detectors. The system cannot be armed unless the “Ready” light is ON, indicating that all zones are closed.

NOTE: The system may be armed with a zone bypassed or a trouble present but your security protection will be reduced.

To Arm The System

Enter your 4-digit Access Code. As each digit is entered, the keypad sounder will beep. If the correct Access Code is entered, the keypad sounder will beep quickly and the “Armed” light will come ON.

If the Access Code was entered incorrectly or the “Ready” light comes ON, the keypad buzzer will sound steadily for 2 seconds. If this occurs, press the [#] key and re-enter your Access Code.

When the correct Access Code is entered and the “Armed” light comes ON, exit the premises through the door indicated by your installer as the Exit-Entry door. At the end of the exit delay period, all lights, except the “Armed” light, will go out and the system will be armed. The exit time delay can be changed by your installer.

Auto-Bypass Option - Home-Away Arming

This feature, if selected by your installer, will allow you to arm your system with any Access Code and the system will automatically bypass the interior zones. When activated, the “System” light will come on. If you exit within the allowed exit time, the system will automatically activate the interior zones and the “System” light will go out. This feature is designed to save the customer from having to manually bypass interior zones each time they wish to arm the system and remain at home.

In residential applications where the system has been armed and the interior zones are automatically bypassed, the interior zones can be reactivated from a keypad that is outside the interior zone's protection area. To reactivate the interior zones, press [∗ ] then [1] and the “System” light will go out.

Entry Delay Off Arming

If you wish to arm your system and eliminate the entry delay, enter [∗ ][9] before your Access Code. The “Armed” light will flash as a reminder that the system is armed and has no entry delay. An entry through any zone programmed as a delay zone will create an instant alarm.

To arm without entry delay, press [∗ ][9][Access Code]
