SYSTEM OVERVIEWGeneral Congratulations on your ownership of an Ademco Partitioned

Security System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, forit represents the latest in security protection technology today.Ademco is the world's largest manufacturer of security systemsand millions of premises are protected by Ademco systems.

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fireand emergency. To realize the system's full potential, it isimportant that you feel comfortable in operating it. Your systemconsists of at least one Keypad which provides full control ofsystem operation, various sensors which provide perimeter andinterior burglary protection, plus a selected number of strategicallyplaced smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide earlywarning in case of fire.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor allprotection zones and system status and provides appropriateinformation for display on the Keypad(s) used with the system,and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also havebeen programmed to automatically transmit alarm or statusmessages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoringstation.

A PartitionedSystem

Simply stated, a partitioned system shares one physical alarmsystem among different users, each with their own requirements.For the most part, you as a user need not know about otherusers and their structure in the system, but from time to time, youmay see display messages which indicate the system is in useby another user. Do not be concerned, this is normal. Refer to theACCESSING OTHER PARTITIONS section for additionalinformation.

Zones Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various"zones." For example, the sensing device on your Entry/Exit doormay have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices onwindows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. Thesenumbers will appear on the display, along with an alphadescriptor for that zone (if programmed), when an alarm or troublecondition occurs.

Ð 4 Ð

SYSTEM OVERVIEW (cont'd)Fire Protection The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is

always on and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected.Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for importantinformation concerning fire protection, smoke detectors andplanning emergency exit routes from your house.

BurglaryProtection

The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned onor "armed" before it will sense burglary alarm conditions. Yoursystem provides four modes of burglary protection: STAY,AWAY, INSTANT and MAXIMUM, and even allows you toBYPASS selected zones of protection while leaving the rest ofthe system armed. The system also provides a CHIME mode, foralerting users to the opening and closing of doors and windowswhile the system is disarmed. Refer to the other sections of thismanual for procedures for using these features.The following table lists the four different arming modes and theresults of each.

Arming Features For Each Arming ModeMode Exit Entry Perimeter Interior

Delay Delay Armed ArmedAWAY Yes Yes Yes YesSTAY Yes Yes Yes NoINSTANT Yes No Yes NoMAXIMUM Yes No Yes Yes

Alarms When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounderswill sound, and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing thealarm. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station,an alarm message will also be sent. To stop the alarm sounding,simply disarm the system.

Memory of Alarm When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays thenumber(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displaysthe type of alarm (ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains displayed until itis cleared by disarming the system (see DISARMING THESYSTEM section).

Ð 5 Ð

SYSTEM OVERVIEW (cont'd)Speed Key

(Macros)The system can store a string of up to 16 keystrokes, which canbe activated anytime by simply pressing the "D" key. Thisfeature can be used to make it easy to perform a complicatedprocedure (such as going to another partition to bypass a zone),or it can be used to simplify an everyday, repeated procedure.Refer to the SPEED KEY section for procedures for using thisfeature.

Using Schedules Your system may have been programmed with schedules forautomatically arming, disarming and activating various devicesand/or performing other system functions at predetermined times.Users can modify some of these schedules by manually delayinga closing time, using temporary schedules, or by programmingspecial user schedules. Refer to the USING SCHEDULESsection at the end of this manual for scheduling relatedprocedures.

Device Timers The system provides up to 20 "timers" which can be used tocontrol various devices, such as lights or appliances. Thesetimers are similar in concept to the individual appliance timers thatmight be purchased at a department store. The devices that canbe controlled are programmed into the system by the installer.Up to 16 of these devices can be programmed. Refer to thePROGRAMMING DEVICE TIMERS section for procedures.

To AccessAnother Partition(GOTO Command)

Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes,and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user isauthorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to performsystem functions in another partition by using the G O T Ocommand. Note that only those partitions authorized andprogrammed by the installer can be accessed in this manner.To GOTO another partition, enter your security code, then press✱ followed by the desired partition number (1-8).

The keypad will remain in the new partition until directed to go toanother partition, or until 120 seconds has elapsed with nokeypad activity. Entering partition number 0 will return the keypadto its original partition.

Ð 6 Ð

SYSTEM OVERVIEW (cont'd)Master Keypad

OperationA "Master" keypad is one on which the status of all 8 partitions isdisplayed simultaneously. A user can get more information abouta certain partition by simply entering ✱ + the desired partitionnumber (1-8). To log on to the "Master" partition (9) using theGOTO command, a user must have access to all partitions.

Self-Help Feature Abbreviated user's instructions are built into the system that canbe easily viewed on the alpha keypad's message displayscreen. This feature will prove particularly useful if this manual isnot conveniently accessible when you need to perform a systemprocedure with which you are not familiar.

To view the abbreviated instructions:Simply press and hold down the function key of interest untilthe description starts to appear (about 5 seconds) and thenrelease it.

Refer to the FUNCTIONS OF THE KEYPAD section fordescriptions of each key function.

Phone Access &Voice Response

Capability

Your system may include a 4285 VIP module that will permit youto access the system via a Touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. The phone access feature willenable you to do the following:

¥ Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephoneregarding the status of the security system.

¥ Arm and disarm the system and perform most functioncommands via the telephone, with voice confirmation providedafter each command entry.

¥ Control 4204 relays through the #70 Manual Relay Activationmode.

Complete information regarding the use of this feature is providedin a separate manual entitled PHONE ACCESS USER'SGUIDE, which accompanies the 4285 VIP module.

Ð 7 Ð

ABOUT THE KEYPADSGeneral

IMPORTANT: If thekeypad beeps rapidly

upon entering thepremises, it indicates

that an alarm hasoccurred during your

absence. LEAVEIMMEDIATELY and

CONTACT THE POLICEfrom a nearby safe

location.

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. Thekeypads feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a LiquidCrystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of alloccurrences. Keypad display back lighting is programmable toalways stay on or to light only when a key is pressed, then turnoff a few minutes later.

The keypads also feature a built-in sounder which will soundduring alarms and troubles. It will also "beep" during certainsystem functions, such as during entry/exit delay times, duringCHIME mode, and when depressing keys to arm and disarm thesystem (to acknowledge the key press). These sounds can beoptionally suppressed in some of your keypads (so as not todisturb other users of the system). Ask your installer if this hasbeen done.

The Keypad This system uses alpha keypads, which feature a 2-line, 32character alphanumeric Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). Thesekeypads can display system messages in friendly English.Abbreviated user's instructions can also be displayed (see SelfHelp paragraph in the SYSTEM OVERVIEW section). Thesekeypads can also be programmed with custom zone descriptors.

Ð 8 Ð

FUNCTIONS OF THE KEYPADÊ

1. ALPHA DISPLAY WINDOW: A 2-line, 32-character Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).Displays protection point identification andsystem status, messages, and userinstructions.

2. OFF KEY: Disarms the burglary portion ofthe system, silences alarms and audibletrouble indicators, and clears visual alarmtrouble after the problem has been corrected.

3. AWAY KEY: Completely arms bothperimeter and interior burglary protection bysensing an intruder's movements throughprotected interior areas as well as guardingprotected doors, windows, etc. Late arrivalscan enter through an entry delay zone withoutcausing an alarm if the system is disarmedbefore the entry delay time expires.

4. STAY KEY: Arms the perimeter burglaryprotection, guarding protected doors, windowsand other perimeter protection points, andsounds an alarm if one is opened. Interiorprotection is not armed, which allowsmovement within your house without causingan alarm. Late arrivals can enter through anentry delay zone without causing an alarm ifthe system is disarmed before the entry delaytime expires.

5. MAXIMUM KEY: Arms in manner similarto AWAY mode, but eliminates the entry delayperiod, thus providing maximum protection. Analarm will occur immediately upon opening anyprotection point, including entry delay zones.

6. TEST KEY: Tests the system and alarmsounder if disarmed.

7. BYPASS KEY: Removes indiv idualprotection zones from being monitored by thesystem. Displays previously bypassedprotection zones.

8. INSTANT KEY: Arms in manner similar toSTAY mode, but turns off the entry delayperiod, offering greater security while insideand not expecting any late arrivals. An alarmwill occur immediately upon opening anyperimeter protection point, including entrydelay zones.

9. CODE KEY: Allows the entry of additionaluser codes that can be given to other users ofthe system.

10. CHIME KEY: Turns on & off the CHIMEmode. When on, any entry through a protecteddelay or perimeter zone while the system isdisarmed will cause a tone to sound at theKeypad(s).

11. READY KEY: When depressed prior toarming the system, the keypad will display allopen protection zones within the keypad'shome partition. This key is also used to displayall zone descriptors that have beenprogrammed for your system, by holding thekey down for at least 5 seconds.

12. # KEY: Permits ARMING of the systemwithout use of a security code ("Quick Arm", ifprogrammed).

13. KEYS 0-9: Used to enter your individualsecurity access code(s).

14. POWER/READY INDICATOR: (GREEN)On some keypads, this lights when primarypower is on. If off, system is operating on itsbackup battery power. CALL YOURINSTALLER IMMEDIATELY. On other types ofkeypads, lit indicates system is ready to bearmed, while unlit indicates system not ready.

15. ARMED INDICATOR: (RED) Lit when thesystem has been armed (STAY, AWAY,INSTANT or MAXIMUM).

16. INTERNAL SOUNDER: Source of audibleinternal warning and confirmation sounds, aswell as alarms (see "Summary of AudibleNotifications").

17. A-B-C PANIC KEYS: Refer to the PANICKEYS section for descriptions of these keys.

IMPORTANT!: When using the keypad to enter codes and commands,sequential key depressions must be made within 3 seconds of oneanother. If 3 seconds elapses without a key depression, the entry isaborted and must be repeated from its beginning.

Ð 10 Ð

ENTRY/EXIT DELAYSGeneral

InformationYour system has preset time delays, known as exit delay andentry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay givesyou time to leave through the designated exit door without settingoff an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering anyarming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. Ifprogrammed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delayperiod.

Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when youreenter through the designated entrance door. But the systemmust be disarmed before the entry delay period ends, or an alarmwill occur. The keypad will beep during the entry delay period,reminding you to disarm the system. You can also arm the systemwith no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or MAXIMUMarming modes. These modes provide greater security while onthe premises or while away for extended periods of time. Seeyour installer for your delay times.

Ð 11 Ð

SECURITY CODES& AUTHORITY LEVELS

GeneralInformation

At the time of installation, you were assigned an authority leveland a personal four-digit security code, known only to you andyours. The security code must be entered when arming anddisarming the system. The authority level defines the systemfunctions that you can perform.

As an additional safety feature, other users that do not have aneed to know your code can be assigned different securitycodes, and each user can be given a different authority level.Users are identified by "user numbers", which are assigned whenassigning a user's security code.

All codes can be used interchangeably when performing systemfunctions within the limits of each code's authority level (a systemarmed with one user's code can be disarmed by another user'scode), with the exception of the Operator Level C code. SeeAUTHORITY LEVELS section on the following page for detailedinformation regarding user authority levels.

Duress Code This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm orarm the system under threat. When used, the system will actnormally, but can silently notify the central station of yoursituation, if that service has been provided. The duress code ispre-assigned by the installer during installation (auth. level 6).

Important: This code is useful only when the system isconnected to a central station.

Quick Arming Note that if "Quick Arming" was programmed by the installer, the# key can be pressed in place of the security code when arming

the system. The security code must always be used to disarmthe system, however.

Ð 12 Ð

SECURITY CODES& AUTHORITY LEVELS (cont'd)

Authority Levels Authority levels define the system functions a particular user canperform. Depending on the authority assigned to you, there arecertain system functions you may be prohibited from performing.In summary, there are six authority levels, each having certainsystem restrictions as shown below.

Ð 13 Ð


General Rules onAuthority Levels

and Changes

¥ A user may not delete or change the user code of the SAME orHIGHER authority than which he is assigned.

¥ A user may only ADD users to a LOWER authority level.¥ A user may assign access codes only to those partitions to

which the user adding the code has access. (ex. a user withaccess to only partition 1 cannot assign codes in partition 2.)

¥ The only way to assign a user's authority level is by using the"Add A User" procedure. To change a user's authority level,that user must first be deleted, then added again.

¥ A user can only be DELETED or CHANGED from within thepartition he is assigned.

¥ User numbers must be entered as 3-digit entries. One- or two-digit user numbers must be preceded by a "0" (example, 003,004, etc.). Security codes are entered as 4-digit numbers.

¥ Before assigning a security code, be sure it does not conflictwith any DURESS code.

Note: When adding, changing or deleting users, all other alphakeypads in that partition will display "User Edit Mode Ð PleaseStand By", and key depressions (except Panic) at thosekeypads will be ignored. Panic key depressions will cause analarm and terminate user entry.

To Exit User EditMode

You can exit any of the user edit modes described on thefollowing pages at any time by doing the following:

1. Press either ✱ or # , or don't press any key for 10 seconds.

2. System returns to normal mode.

Ð 14 Ð

(continued)MULTI-ACCESS ?0 = NO , 1 = YES

If you as a user have access to otherpartitions, the keypad will prompt for abilityof this new user to access (GOTO) thosepartitions. Press 0 (NO) or 1 (YES). If no,the system activates this user code andexits ÒAdd a UserÓ mode. If yes, thekeypad prompts for the Global Arm optionfor this user.

GLOBAL ARM ?0 = NO , 1 = YES

Press 1 (YES) if this user will be allowed totry to arm more than one partition at thesame time. Press 0 if this user will arm onlyhis assigned partition.

PART.2 - SHOP?0 = NO , 1 = YES

The keypad now prompts for the userÕsaccess to the next partition (see GOTOcommand). Again press 0 or 1. If yes, thesystem will automatically assign a usernumber for use in that partition and willprompt for the authority level and globalarm option for this user within the partition(see previous steps).

PART. 1 T WHSEU S E R 0 0 3AUTH=3G .

When all partitions have been displayed,the keypad will scroll through thepartition(s) to which access has beenassigned, and will display the usernumber, authority level and global armoption for each. The ÒGÓ after the authoritylevel indicates that the global arm feature isactive for this user in the displayedpartition. The "✴" indicates the partitionfrom which this user can be changed ordeleted. The "." at the end of the secondline indicates that this user sendsopen/close reports. Open/close reportingis automatically active for any users addedby you, if you have open/close reportingactive.

Ð 16 Ð


To Change aUser's Code

CODE

1. Enter Master or Manager code and press the 8 key + usernumber to be changed.

2. Enter the new code for that user.

ADD NEW USER?0 = NO , 1 = YES

The system will recognize that the usernumber is already in use and will promptwhether or not this is a new user. Enter 0 tochange the existing user's code to the codeentered in step 3.

U S E R 0 0 2CHANGED

SUCCESSFULLY

The system will confirm that the change isallowed based on authorization level, andif so, will put the new code into effect.

Note that if changing oneÕs owncode, the system will prompt for the newcode to be reentered. This preventsaccidentally changing one's own code.

To Delete a UserCODE

1. Enter Master or Manager code and press the 8 key + UserNumber to be deleted.

2. Enter Master or Manager code first entered.

OK TO DELETE0 = NO , 1 = YES

The system will recognize that the Usernumber is already in use and will prompt toconfirm that it should be deleted. Press 0(NO) or 1 (YES).

USER CODEDELETED

If yes, that user's code will be removed fromall partitions to which it was assigned, and allauthorization levels and other informationabout that user will be deleted. Note that auser can only be deleted from the partition inwhich it was first assigned, and can only bedeleted by a user with a higher authoritylevel. A User's security code cannot bedeleted by oneself.

Ð 17 Ð

ACCESSING OTHER PARTITIONS(GOTO Command and Global Arming)

To AccessAnother Partition

Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes,and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user isauthorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to performsystem functions in other partitions by using the G O T Ocommand. Note that only those partitions authorized andprogrammed by the installer can be accessed in this manner.

To GOTO another partition: READY

1. Enter your security code, then press Ê✱Ê + partitionnumber (0-9).Entering partition number 0 will return the keypad to its originalpartition.

2. LOG-ON TOAAAA

PART. XCOMPLETE

The keypad will remain in the new partitionuntil directed to go to another partition, oruntil 2 minutes has elapsed with nokeypad activity.AAAA = alpha descriptor programmed bythe installerX = partition number

Global Arming The Global Arming option may have been programmed for useby some users. If Global Arming was enabled for use with yoursecurity code, a keypad prompt (message) will appear afterpressing one of the arming function keys (STAY, INSTANT,AWAY, MAXIMUM, OFF). Follow the keypad prompts to continuearming the system. See your installer for detailed instructions onthe use of this feature.If global arming does not apply to your security code, use theprocedures described in the following pages.

Master KeypadOperation

A "Master" keypad is one that reflects the status of the entiresystem (Partitions 1-8) on its display. This is useful because iteliminates the need for a security officer in a building to have to"log-on" to various partitions from one partition's keypad to findout where an alarm has occurred.A description of a typical display follows:

S Y S T E M 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8S T A T U S R R N N A ✴ B

Ð 18 Ð

ACCESSING OTHER PARTITIONS(cont'd)

Master KeypadOperation

(continued)

The status of each partition is directly below the partition numberon the display. Possible status indications include:

A = Armed Away M = Armed MaximumS = Armed Stay I = Armed InstantR = Ready N = Not ReadyB = Bypassed/Ready T = Alarm Memory/Trouble present

To obtain more information regarding a particular partition, enter ✴+ [Partition No.] (i.e., ✴4). This will allow viewing only of thatpartition. In order to affect that partition, the user must log on witha code that has access to that partition. Also, in order for a userof any partition to log onto the "Master" partition (Partition 9) toview the status of all partitions, that user must have access to allpartitions. Otherwise, access will be denied.The following is an example of what would be displayed for afault condition on Zone 2 (Loading Dock Window) on Partition 1(Warehouse) when logging on from a keypad on Partition 9:

WHSE DISARMEDHIT ✴ FOR FAULTS

This is the normal display that appears at Partition 1's keypad(s).Pressing ✴ will display:

F A U L T 0 2 L O A D I N GD O C K W I NDOW

Additional zone faults will be displayed one at a time. To displaya new partition's status, press ✴ + [Partition No.]. This willdisplay the status of the new partition.The "Armed" LED on a Master keypad will be lit only if allpartitions have been armed successfully. The "Ready" LED willbe lit only if all partitions are "ready to arm."The sounder on a Master keypad will reflect the sound of themost critical condition on all of the partitions. The priority of thesounds is as follows:

A. Pulsing fire alarm soundsB. Steady burglar alarm soundsC. Trouble sounds

The sounder may be silenced by pressing any key on theMaster keypad.

Ð 19 Ð


Common LobbyOperation

When an installation consists of a partition shared by usersof other partitions in a building, that shared partition may beassigned as the "common lobby" partition for the system.An example of this might be in a medical building wherethere are two doctor's offices and a common entrance area .

This option employs logic for automatic arming anddisarming of the common lobby . Partitions may be set toaffect and/or attempt to arm the common lobby. This willaffect the way the lobby will react when arming or disarmingactivity occurs in another partition.

Partitions set to affect the lobby will cause the following tooccur:

a. When the first partition that affects the lobby isdisarmed, the lobby will also be disarmed.

b. The common lobby cannot be armed unless everypartition selected to affect the lobby is armed.

c. Arming the last partition that affects the lobby will notautomatically attempt to arm the lobby.

Partitions set to arm the lobby will cause the following tooccur:

a. When the first partition that affects the lobby isdisarmed, the lobby will also be disarmed.

b. The common lobby cannot be armed unless everypartition selected to affect the lobby is armed.

c. Arming the last partition that is programmed to arm thelobby will automatically attempt to arm the lobby. If anyfaults exist in the lobby partition, or another partition thataffects the lobby is disarmed, the lobby cannot bearmed, and the message "UNABLE TO ARM LOBBYPARTITION" will be displayed.

Ð 20 Ð


The following chart sums up how the common lobby partition willoperate.

Partition Partition Disarms when Attempts to arm when Can be armed ifAffects Lobby Arms Lobby partition disarms? partition arms? other partitions

How User CodesAffect the CommonLobby

Codes with "Global" ArmingIf your code is given "global arming" when it is defined thekeypad will ask "Arm all?" or "Disarm all?" whenever youtry to arm or disarm the partitions you have access to froman alpha keypad. This allows you to pick and choose thepartitions to be armed or disarmed, and so eliminates the"automatic" operation of the lobby. Keep in mind, however,that if attempting to arm all, and another "affecting" partitionis disarmed, you will not be able to arm the lobby, and themessage "UNABLE TO ARM LOBBY PARTITION" will bedisplayed.

Codes with "Non-Global" ArmingIf arming with a non-global code, or if arming with a globalcode from a non-alpha keypad, the lobby partitionoperation will be automatic, as described in the previoustable.

Other Methods of Arming/Disarming

When arming or disarming a partition that affects and/or armsthe common lobby in one of the following manners, lobbylogic remains active:¥ Quick-Arm¥ Keyswitch¥ Wireless Button¥ Wireless Keypad

Ð 21 Ð

CHECKING FOR OPEN ZONESUsing the ✱

READY Key

Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows andother protection zones must be closed or bypassed (seeBYPASSING section). Otherwise the keypad will display a "NotReady" message. Using the READY key will display all zonesthat are faulted, making it easier for you to secure any openzones.

To show faulted zones:

DISARMED -PRESS

✴ TO SHOWFAULTS

Note: Some keypads light a green LEDwhen the system is ready. If not lit, thesystem is not ready to be armed.

READY

1. Do not enter security code, but simply press Ê✱Ê .

UPSTAIRSBEDROOM

Typical fault display

2. DISARMEDREADY TO ARM

Secure or bypass the zones displayedbefore arming the system. The "Ready"message will be displayed when allprotection zones have been either closedor bypassed.

NOTE: All or part of this message may bereplaced by a customized messageprogrammed by the installer. Bear this in mindwhenever the instructions indicate that the"DISARMED" or "READY" message will bedisplayed.

Ð 22 Ð

DISPLAYING ALLZONE DESCRIPTORS

Using the ✱

READY Key

The Alpha Keypads can also display all the zone descriptors thatare programmed in your system. The abbreviated instructions forthe R E A D Y key will appear first, followed by the zonedescriptors. Displaying all descriptors is useful when you need toknow the zone number of a particular zone, as when bypassingzones.

The "Disarmed-Ready to arm" message must be displayedbefore zone descriptors can be displayed.

READY

Press the Ê✱Ê key and hold down for at least 5 seconds.

Ð 23 Ð

BYPASSING ZONESUsing the 6

BYPASS KeyThis key is used when you want to arm your system with one ormore zones intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones areunprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while yoursystem is armed. All bypasses are removed when an OFFsequence (security code plus OFF) is performed. Bypasses arealso removed if the arming procedure that follows the bypasscommand is not successful.

BYPASSING ZONES (cont'd)Bypassing

SystemSupervisory

Zones

NOTE: Ask your installer if your system was set up toallow system zones and system outputs to be bypassed.Your system may allow you to bypass certain "system zones"which monitor various aspects of system status and certainsystem outputs which annunciate system status. These zonesand outputs are listed below. This feature is used to disable themonitoring of one or more system zones or to disable theoperation of one or more system outputs when, for example, thesystem is to be serviced or tested. If enabled, this feature canonly be used by a master user.¥ zone #970: monitors the supervision status of the bell 1

output (if enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zonedisables the operation and supervision of the bell 1 output.

¥ zone #971: monitors the supervision status of the bell 2output (if enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zonedisables the operation and supervision of the bell 2 output.

¥ zone #972: monitors the panel's field wiring to determine if ashort to earth ground exists. Bypassing this zone disablesearth ground fault monitoring.

¥ zone #973: monitors devices that your installer has connectedto input 1 on the main PCB J2 connector (such as a back-upALARMNET radio transmitter). Bypassing this zone causesthe system to ignore the status of devices connected to input1.

¥ zone #974: monitors the supervision status of the main dialeroutput (if enabled at installation time). Bypassing this zonedisables the operation and supervision of the main dialeroutput.

¥ zone #975: monitors the supervision status of the back-updialer output (if installed and enabled at installation time).Bypassing this zone disables the operation and supervisionof the back-up dialer output.

¥ zone #976: this zone is assigned to the auxiliary relay output.Actually, this zone does not monitor anything since theauxiliary relay output is not supervised. However,bypassing this zone allows the operation of the auxiliaryrelay output to be disabled.

¥ zone #977: this zone is assigned to the ALARMNET radiotrigger outputs. Actually, this zone does not monitor anythingsince the ALARMNET triggers are not supervised. However,bypassing this zone allows the operation of the triggers to bedisabled.

RECOMMENDATIONSFOR PROPER PROTECTION

THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE LOCATION OF FIRE ANDBURGLARY DETECTION DEVICES HELP PROVIDE PROPER COVERAGEFOR THE PROTECTED PREMISES.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SMOKE AND HEAT DETECTORSWith regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, wesubscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire ProtectionAssociation's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.

Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of firedetection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows:For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside ofeach separate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floorfamily living unit, including basements. The installation of smokedetectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in garages is notnormally recommended.

For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat orsmoke detectors in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen,hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements andattached garages.

Smoke Detectors for Minimum Protection

Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection

Heat-Activated Detectors

Ð 50 Ð

RECOMMENDATIONSFOR PROPER PROTECTION (cont.)

In addition, we recommend the following:¥ Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.¥ Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps

with the door partly or completely closed. Smoke could be blocked bythe closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake upthe sleeper if the door is closed.

¥ Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances(such as portable heaters, air conditioners or humidifiers) are used.

¥ Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is morethan 40 feet (12 meters) long.

¥ Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, orin any room where alarm control connections to an AC source or phonelines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room couldprevent the control from reporting a fire or an intrusion.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTIONFor proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at everypossible point of entry to a home or commercial premises. This wouldinclude any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in amulti-level building.

In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security systemso that alarm signals can still be sent to the alarm monitoring station in theevent that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normallysent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

Ð 51 Ð

EMERGENCY EVACUATIONEstablish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The followingsteps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:

1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior soundersso that they can be heard by all occupants.

2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path ofescape should lead to the door that permits normal exit fromthe building. The other may be a window, should your pathbe impassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows ifthere is a long drop to the ground.

3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors,stairs and rooftops that can be used to escape. Indicateescape routes for each room. Keep these routes free fromobstruction and post copies of the escape routes in everyroom.

4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep.This will prevent deadly smoke from entering while youescape.

5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escaperoute. If the door is cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared toslam the door if smoke or heat rushes in.

6. Where smoke is present, crawl on the ground; do not walkupright. Smoke rises and may overcome you. Clearer air isnear the floor.

7. Escape quickly; don't panic.

8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from yourhouse, where everyone can meet and then take steps tocontact the authorities and account for those missing. Choosesomeone to assure that nobody returns to the house Ñ manydie going back.

MAINTAINING YOUR SYSTEMTaking Care ofYour System

The components of your security system are designed to be asfree of maintenance as possible. However, there are some thingsyou can do to make sure that your system is in reliable workingcondition.1. Test your system weekly.2. Test the system after any alarm occurs (see TESTING THE

SYSTEM).Replacing

Batteries inWireless Sensors

Wireless sensorsmay not have been

used in your securitysystem

Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-voltbattery. The system detects a low battery in any wirelesssensor, including smoke detectors, the optional personalemergency transmitter, and the optional portable wirelesskeypad. (A low battery in a portable wireless keypad is detectedas soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the keypad willdisplay 00.)Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and inmost units and applications, provide 2Ð4 years of service. Actualbattery life will depend on the environment in which the sensor isused, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor hashad to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such ashumidity, high or low temperatures or large swings in temperature,may all lead to the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.

If you have a low battery in a wireless sensor, a lowbattery message is displayed on the keypad.

In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low batteryalso emits a single "chirp" sound once approximately every 20-30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke detector with the weakbattery. If you do not replace a smoke detector's low battery, thesmoke detector may sound continuously, as if there were a firealarm.Note: The low battery message comes on as a warning thatbattery replacement in indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days.In the meantime, the sensor(s) causing the low battery indicationis still fully operational.Important:ÊÊUse only batteries recommended by your installeras replacement.

Ð 53 Ð

MAINTAINING YOUR SYSTEM(cont'd)

Silencing LowBattery Warning

Tones at theKeypad

The keypadÕs warning tones can be silenced by performing anOFF sequence (code plus OFF key), but the Keypad's lowbattery message display will remain on as a reminder that youhave a low battery condition in one or more of your sensors.When you replace the weak battery with a fresh one, the sensorwill send a "good battery" signal to the control as soon as thesensor is activated (opening/closing of door, window, etc.),causing the low battery display to turn off. If the sensor is notactivated, the display will automatically clear withinapproximately 1 hour.

Routine Care ¥ Treat the components of your security system as you would anyother electrical equipment. Do not slam sensor-protected doors orwindows.

¥ Keep dust from accumulating on the keypad and all protectivesensors, particularly on motion sensors and smoke detectors.

¥ The keypad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a drysoft cloth. Do not spray water or any other fluid on theunits.

WARNING!THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection againstburglary or fire or other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject tocompromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:¥ Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass

an alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.¥ Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices

will not work without power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries,or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC powersupply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.

¥ Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarmreceiver. Even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if ametal object is moved into the path.

¥ A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.¥ While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they

may not activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, accordingto data published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectorsused in conjunction with this System may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have beenimproperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke cannotreach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smokedetectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector,for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensinglimitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may notalways warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violentexplosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits,children playing with matches, or arson. Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of thesmoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning toallow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.

¥ Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed intheir installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They docreate multiple beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered bythose beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors,closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking, painting orspraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce theirdetection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambienttemperature of protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detectionperformance can decrease.

Ð 62 Ð

WARNING!THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

(continued)¥ Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are

located on the other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level ofthe residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms.Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is muffled from a stereo, radio, airconditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, maynot warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.

¥ Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may beout of service or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise bysophisticated intruders.

¥ Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficienttime to protect themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system,authorities may not respond appropriately.

¥ This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipmentis designed to last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequatemaintenance. This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters areworking properly.Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not asubstitute for insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently inprotecting themselves and continue to insure their lives and property.We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselvesand their loved ones to learn about these developments.
