XR100FC/XR500FC User’s Guide iii
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that you
establish an emergency evacuation plan to safeguard lives in the
event of a re or other emergency.
Draw a oorplan of your home or business
On a sheet of paper, draw the walls, windows, doors, and stairs.
Also draw any obstacles, such as large furniture or appliances, a
person may encounter while exiting the building.
Develop escape routes
Determine at least two routes the occupants in each room can take
to safely escape. One route can be the most obvious such as the
door. Another can be through a window that can be easily opened.
If the window is high off the ground, an escape ladder should be
provided. Draw arrows on the oorplan to show escape routes from
each room.
Decide where to meet
Prearrange a meeting place outside and away from where
emergency personnel are likely to be working. A neighbor’s house
or across the street in the front of the house are good locations.
Always perform a head count to make sure all occupants safely
exited. NEVER ENTER A BURNING BUILDING. If the head count shows
one or more persons missing, give this information immediately to
the authorities. Never enter a building to look for someone.
Practice your escape plans
Devising an escape plan is only the beginning, before the plan can
be effective everyone should practice the escape routes from each
room.
Early detection
The best way to survive a re or other emergency is to get out
early. The installation of a re alarm system, with smoke and
carbon monoxide detectors in each room, can greatly decrease
your risk of loss or injury.

Asterisks in Burglary Area Armed Displays
Asterisks display next to a programming option that is already
selected. As shown in the example, options chosen to display
the current programming selection have an asterisk next to the
number. Those that are not selected simply display the number.
In the example, Burglary Areas 3, 8, 9, 15, 19, 23, 25, and 31 are
not selected. In both examples the numbers with asterisks are
selected.
Burglary Areas
*1 *2 3 *4 *17 *18 19 *20
*5 *6 *7 8 *21 *22 23 *24
9 *10 *11 *12 25 *26 *27 *28
*13 *14 15 *16 *29 *30 31 *32
To select or deselect a number, simply enter the number using the
digit keys on the keypad. This same scheme is used when viewing
the panel armed status and other programming and operational
functions. Remember to press the COMMAND key to display the
rest of the device or area numbers.
Using the Keypad

Your system may be programmed to display the User Menu and
Status Display text in multiple languages. When the COMMAND
key is pressed, the option to choose the language displays. The
language chosen continues to display at this keypad until another

dash. Press the number(s) on the keypad you want to enter as the
new number for that option.
