If An Alarm Sounds

If an intrusion alarm sounds (continuous siren tone), the alarm may not be silenced by entering your Access Code. If the alarm was unintentional, call local authorities immediately to avoid an unnecessary response.

You can determine the source of the alarm by following the instructions in the Alarm Viewing section of this manual. Once the source of the alarm has been corrected, the system can be restored to its original armed state.

Zone Bypassing

Use Zone Bypassing when access is needed to part of the protected area while the system is armed. Bypassed zones will not cause an alarm. Zones that are temporarily out of service due to damaged wiring or contacts may be bypassed to allow system arming (partial protection) until repairs can be made. Zones cannot be bypassed after the system is armed.

To bypass zones:

Enter [∗ ][1][Zone number(s) to be bypassed]

Enter zone number(s) as single digits (1-4).

As each zone is bypassed, the Zone Light will come ON. If a zone is bypassed in error, press that zone number again and the Zone Light will go OFF indicating that the zone is not bypassed.

Press [#] to return to “Ready”.

To recall last group of zones bypassed:

Enter [∗ ][1][9]

Zone lights for the last group of zones bypassed will come ON to show which zones are bypassed. If you wish to add or delete a zone from the group, press [#] to exit then follow the instructions for zone bypassing as described above.

Press [#] to return to “Ready”.

For security reasons, your installer may prevent the bypass command from working on certain zones. The “System” light is ON as long as ONE or more zones are bypassed. Do not unintentionally arm the system with zones bypassed. Zone bypasses are automatically cancelled each time the system is disarmed and must be re-applied before the next arming.

Viewing Trouble Conditions

The PC1150 continuously monitors a number of possible trouble conditions. If one of these trouble conditions occur, the keypad will beep twice every 10 seconds and the keypad “System” indicator will light. Pressing any key on the keypad will silence the sounder but the “System” light will remain ON until the trouble condition is cleared. If you cannot determine the cause of the trouble condition, contact your installer for assistance.

Press [∗ ][2] to display the type of trouble. A Zone Light will come on to indicate which type of trouble exists. Press [#] to return to “Ready”.
