The system enables you in a business environment,to conveniently group separately,the offices
from the warehouse area,orin a private residence,thedifferent rooms of the home.For
example,living room,bedroom,and maybe the basement and attic.
These groups or zones can reactspecifically to different types of events and then generating an
alarm or activate a device.
The system can be armed intwo different modes:
Arm – the protected areas are entirelyvacated.
Stay – people and pets populate the protected areas.
You have access to thekeypad's controlfeatures,and can change thesettings yourself.
The system can be accessed viamultiplekeypads (each located at a different site).Up to eight
keypads can be integrated into the system.Accesslevels and youraccess codes are described
later on in thisguide.

How to OperatetheAccess ControlOutput
If the alarm system has been set up to allow controlof an electric doorlock,you can activatethe
door release function as follows;
Press< > or Press< > enter CODE then < >.The ControlLED is lit while thelockis
active,and turns off as soon as power isremoved from thelock.
The Access Controlfunction can either be a single button operation or restricted to requiring a
validUsercode entry.Both options are shown above.Pleaseconsult your installeras to what
option may be programmed.
How to start Walk Test Mode
While in CLIENT mode aUserwith the proper authority can startwalk-test mode.This special
mode latches the alarmsignals from detectors atthe keypad initiating the testso that one
person can trigger every detector connected to thealarm then return to the keypad to verify
operation.OnterminatingWalk-test mode the testresults are putinto the memory buffer so
they can beviewedat alater time.
To start Walk-test mode while in CLIENT mode press < > <200> < ><6> < > and
the keypad buzzer beeps at 1-second intervals.
Next trigger every detector connected to the panel then return to the keypad and allof the zones
that were triggered are displayed on the keypad.
To terminate Walk-test mode press <>,the keypad stops beeping and automatically exits
CLIENT mode.
How to Answer an In-ComingCall
From time to timeyour installer may need to access the alarm from a remote PC to make
changes to your programmingand for security reasons they may have configured thealarm so
that an authorized person on-siteisrequired to make the alarm system answer thein-coming
call.This option is only available in CLIENT mode.
If the panelis not configured to answerin-coming calls,the user can force itto answer the call
by pressing and holding < > followed within 2seconds by <9>.This forces the panelto
answer the call immediately.For thisfunctionto work the phone line must be ringing at the time
and there must have been at least two rings before pressing thebuttons.
Provided the line connected tothe alarm was ringing at the time,the panelnow answers the call
and allows a remote PC connection.

UsingtheRemoteCommandControl
Another powerful feature available from your alarmisCommand Control.This featureisa
remote controlfacilitywhich allows valid users to access the panelvia a standardtouch tone
telephone and checkor changes the Arm/Disarm status of each of the areas,operate each of the
eight outputs or turn on an optionalMicrophone.
The Command Controlfeatureis only available on panelsfitted with a Voice or DTMF board.The
Voice board provides voice prompts to guide youthrough Command controloperations whereas
the DTMF board provides tones (one Long ToneforON or three short beeps for OFF).
Please talk to your installer to findout if all or anyof these options are available onyour alarm.
To perform any of the Command Controlfeatures you must first ring the phone number,which
the panelis connected to.The panelmay be set up to answer after a specific number of rings or
it can be set-up to use a fax defeat option.Either way,when you ring the phone number and
the panelanswers the call,thefirst thing you hearover the phoneisa two seconds burst of
modem tone.After thistone stops you must enter the access code,which is associated with the
Command menu option you wish to access.Remember,the code you enter determines which
menu option you access.If you miss the pause,the panel repeats the modem tone and then
pauses again for 5secondslooking for your accesscode.Thisprocess is repeated four times
before hanging up,if no validcode is received.When entering codes or other information in
Command Controlthe "#" key acts as a "Clear"button.
When you have entered the required 4-digitaccess code the panelreplies with the status
message associated with the Command Controlfunction you have accessed.For example,let's
say we have a code of “2045” to allow Arming &Disarming of Area A.Once the code “2045” has
been received the panelchecks the current status of Area A and replies with the pre-
programmed voicemessage relating to that status.For example,if AreaA is armed,then the
Armed message is sent,if Disarmed thenthe Disarmed message is sent.If only the DTMF board
is fitted,the voicemessage is substituted with along beep if Area A is armed and three short
beeps ifit isdisarmed.
Once thestatus message hasinformed you of the actualstate,you can use the "*" key to toggle
the option on & off orArm and Disarm,e.g.inour example above,code “2045” accesses Area
"A" arming or disarming.
Assuming thestatus message we received was"Area A alarm is Armed" If we press the "*" key,
Area "A" isDisarmed and wewould receive astatus message "Area A alarm isDisarmed" (or
whatever message is programmed by the installer).
While you are on-line with the panelyou can move between menu options by entering the code
of the option youwant to control.Assuming therewas a code of “4321” programmed tocontrol
outputs.After having used code “2045” to controlthe Arm/Disarm status of Area A we first press
the “#” button to reset allprevious entries.Then we can enter the digits “43215” (that is“4321”
as thecode to controloutputs and “5” to select output #5).The current status of output#5is
giveneither by thevoicemessage or the appropriate tone and then the status can be changed
with the “*” button on the remote telephone.
NOTE:
For output control you must enter the 4 digit code,for example,4321 followedby the
output numberyou wish to control, in thiscase5.
At any stage,ifyou enter in an incorrect code you can press the “#” button on the remote
telephone to clear all code entries and then start again.
To turn on the optionalMicrophone (only available ifthe Voice Boardis fitted) you must enterin
the appropriate code followed by the “*” button.To turn the Microphone off you simplypress the
“*” button again.
To end a Command Controlsessionsimply hangs up the phone.The panelis monitoring the line
at alltimes and 15 secondsafter thelast key pressit automatically hangs up the line.This 15-
secondtimer is active during the whole command controlprocess soa period of 15 seconds
withouta keypress causes the panelto hang-up.

UsingLocalCommandControl
If a command controlcode for outputsisprogrammed and the output/s are allowed to be locally
controlled from thekeypad,then entering the 4digit code at a keypad blanksthe display and the
zone LED’s now indicate theoutput status.Forexample,if output1is on zone 1LED is on.
Pressing the “1” button at the panelkeypad,output 1can be turned off provideditis allowed to
be locallycontrolled.To leavelocal commandcontrolmodesimply press the < > button and
the keypad returns to normaloperation.This feature works the same way that “Directly
Controlling an Output” works only it requires a code to access the function.
