Before You Begin
•The step by step instructions on the following
pages are the simplest way to perform the tasks.
Please remember that your user code must have
the correct privileges assigned to it to carry out
the task. If it does not, contact your installer.
•The system may have been set up in such a way
that you will not have to do all the steps.
For example, you may not always have to press
the accept key .
•Around 90% of alarms are false alarms. These
are often caused by incorrect use of the system.
Ensure all regular users know how to turn on and
off the alarm and the entrance and exit routes.
There should also be an agreed routine as to
what to do in the event of an alarm.
•Remember to check that all doors and windows
are securely locked before you turn on the alarm
system.
•Check that that there is no possibility of objects
falling in front of movement detection devices.
•Should a fault occur to your alarm system, call the
alarm company without delay. Your display may
prompt you to do this.

Different Types of Arming
•Arming means turning the system on.
•There are several different ways of arming.
Normal Set Turns on the entire system.
Direct Arming This turns on the system
without allowing an exit time.
Your keypad cannot be in the
guarded area.
Partguard 1 This arms part of the premises
but leaves unarmed some
preprogrammed areas that you
use. If you enter the secured
area without turning off the
alarm system an alarm will go
off.
Partguard 2 This arms part of the premises
but leaves unarmed some
preprogrammed areas you use.
If you enter the secured area
without turning off the alarm
system an alarm will go off.
Key Switch This is a mechanical switch
which arms and disarms the
system without a code.

CS450 User Manual 9
Arming with
inhibited zones If a zone is open the alarm system cannot be switched on
until the zone has been
inhibited. This means that the
zone, for example the kitchen,
is left unguarded but the rest of
the premises will be guarded.
Only inhibit zones when
absolutely necessary.
If an open zone has the letter T
in front of it on the display, it is
a Tamper zone. This means
that the alarm system itself has
been tampered with in some
way. Zones cannot be inhibited
if tampering has occurred and
you must contact the installer.
After disarming, all the inhibited
zones are shown in the
Operator Log
Forced Arming This switches on the system
when a number of zones are
open without having to inhibit
each one individually.
Zones which cannot be inhibited
individually cannot be inhibited
by forced arming.
Zones cannot be inhibited if
tampering has occurred.
