IMPORTANT!
PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTION
For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or commercial
premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building.
In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system so that alarm signals can still be sent to the
Central Monitoring Station in the event that the internet connection is interrupted or not working correctly (alarm signals are
normally sent over the Wi-Fi® and Internet network).
EARLY WARNING FIRE DETECTION
Early warning fire detection is important in a home. Smoke and heat detectors have played a key role in reducing fire
deaths in the United States. With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72). These
recommendations can be found on
page
71
of this manual.
System Compatibility Notice
This Honeywell Home security system is designed for use with devices manufactured or approved by Resideo
Technologies, Inc., through its subsidiary Ademco Inc. (“Resideo”). Your security system is not designed for use with any
device that may be attached to your security system's touchpad or other communicating bus if Resideo has not approved
such device for use with your security system. Use of any such unauthorized device may cause damage or compromise the
performance of your security system and affect the validity of your Resideo limited warranty. When you purchase devices
that have been manufactured or approved by Resideo you acquire the assurance that these devices have been thoroughly
tested to ensure optimum performance when used with your security system.
Lyric™ Lock
Your system supports advanced features designed to keep it functioning optimally. These capabilities include: the ability to
interact with Resideo and your dealer’s network for the setup and programming of its features, support for remote software
updates and the ability (when enabled by your monitoring dealer) to enhance your security by preventing an unauthorized
takeover of the system by another monitoring company. In the event that your dealer has enabled the feature to prevent an
unauthorized takeover and you wish to authorize a new company to take over your system, you may request that Resideo
remotely disable this feature. Resideo will require documentation that you have attempted to contact your existing security
dealer and that they have failed to respond, or failed to agree to your request.

IMPORTANT
If the Controller is beeping rapidly when you enter the premises, an alarm has occurred and
an intruder may still be nearby.
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a safe location.
Security Features
NOTES •
••
• For Lyric™ to report alarms over the internet, your Wi-Fi® network MUST have power at all
times.
•You must arm your security system in order for it to sound alarms.
Sensors and
Zones
Lyric’s sensors are assigned to numbered zones that correspond to areas of your home. For
example, the sensor on an entry/exit door might be assigned to Zone 03, a device in a bedroom
to Zone 06, and so on.
When alarms or trouble conditions occur, the touchscreen displays the zone number and a
description of the sensor involved.
Fire
Protection
Fire protection is always active when the system is operating normally. An alarm sounds if a
fire condition is detected. See Fire/CO Alarm System for important information about fire
protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes.
Carbon
Monoxide
Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors, if installed, are always active and sound an alarm if a carbon
monoxide condition is detected. See Fire/CO Alarm System for more information.
Burglary
Protection
Lyric provides STAY and AWAY burglary protection.
STAY mode protects windows and exterior doors, allowing you to move around inside your
home without setting off an alarm.
AWAY mode protects the entire premises, including interior motion detectors if present.
Both modes offer an entry delay period that allows you to reenter the home without setting off
an alarm. For long periods such as vacations, the entry delay can be turned off while arming the
system.
Lyric also allows you to Bypass selected sensors before arming the system.
The system also features Chime mode, which can alert you to the opening of protected doors
and windows while the system is not armed.
Security
Codes
At the time of installation, the installer asks the homeowner to choose a personal
4-digit security code, known as the “Master User code”.
Other users can be added, typically with less control over the system than the Master User. See
Users and Security Codes.
A user code is required when arming or disarming and for some other functions.
Alarms Alarms are signaled by the Controller’s internal sounder (and external sirens if connected). The screen
indicates the zone where the alarm has occurred. After 15 seconds, the sounder stops
temporarily and the system begins voice announcements of relevant zone information.
After the zones are announced, the panel’s sounder resumes sounding. Alarm sounds and
voice announcements alternate until the system is disarmed or until alarm bell timeout occurs. If
the system is connected to central monitoring, an alarm message is sent.
To silence the sounder, disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed,
indicating Memory Of Alarm. See Clearing a Panic Alarm for more about clearing memory of
alarm.
Audio Alarm
Verification
Allows your central monitoring station to listen to or talk with persons on the premises.
Keypad
Lockout
If 24 numeric keys (0-9) are entered within a period of 15 minutes and no valid command is executed,
Lyric will not process any further numeric key-presses for the following 15 minutes. Entering any
numerical keys during that period causes the panel to sound a single long beep. When the 15-minute
lockout period is over, a Restore message is sent to the Central Station and recorded in the Event Log.

12
False Alarm Preve tio
Many false alarms are caused by minor problems, such as a door left ajar when exiting the home. Lyric™
includes several features to help prevent false alarms. Note that some are optional or must be programmed
by the installer. Disabling these features may increase security, but might also increase the chance of false
alarms.
Your installer can help you decide how to use and customize these features. A brief explanation of false alarm
prevention features follows, along with advice on what to do if false alarms occur.
Exit/Entry Delays Programmed delay times allow you to leave after arming the system or disarm it after
entering without setting off an alarm. Exceeding a delay period causes an alarm.
After a false alarm, disarm the system and contact your monitoring company. They will
verify your security code or password, preventing unnecessary calls for emergency
response.
Alarm Reporting
Delay
Lyric is programmed to wait for a brief period between sounding a burglary alarm on the
premises and sending an alarm message to your monitoring company. This delay allows
you to disarm the system before an alarm message is sent in error.
Exit Alarms False alarms can be caused by leaving the house and forgetting to close the door. If this
happens, Lyric sounds an alarm and displays an Exit Error.
The alarm reporting delay gives you time to disarm the system before an alarm message is
sent.
Exit Time Restart
Exit Delay
Restart/Reset
If you leave the premises and enter again before the exit delay has expired, the exit delay
restarts, giving you more time to leave without causing an alarm.
With 10 seconds left to exit, the Controller begins beeping quickly, indicating that an alarm
will occur if you don’t exit or disarm the system immediately.
If this occurs, disarm the system and arm it again when you are ready to leave. You can
restart the Exit Delay by pressing Restart Timer.
Silent Exit Press Silent Exit to mute the beeping sound that accompanies exit countdowns in most
situations. Voice confirmation of arming status is not muted. Silent Exit increases the Exit
Delay time.
Quick Exit If the system has been armed and someone needs to leave the premises, you can press
this button, which restarts exit delay, allowing exit from the premises without the need to
disarm and re-arm.
Entry Delay If the system is armed, this is the period allowed between a door opening and the system
being disarmed with a user code. Failure to disarm the system during the Entry Delay
causes an alarm. Delay period set by your installer.
Exit Delay Period that begins upon arming the system, during which household members can exit
through entry/exit doors without triggering an alarm. Delay period set by your installer.

13
Armi g the System
The Home button beneath the screen lights green when the system is ready to be armed. If the button is
blinking green, the system is not ready to arm.
Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows, and other protection zones should be closed or
bypassed (see Bypassing Protection Zones).
To change the volume of countdown sounds and security status voice announcements, see System
Settings.
NOTE When a security code is required, a valid code must be entered within 10 seconds of pressing an
Arm button. If an invalid code is entered, or more than 10 seconds elapses, the Security menu
returns and the system is not armed.
Armi g states i clude
Arm Away For times when no one is home; protects all perimeter and interior zones.
Arm Stay For times when the house is occupied; protects only perimeter zones.
Arm Custom Arms the system with pre-selected zones bypassed.
Bypass This feature allows you to arm the system while intentionally leaving selected
zones unprotected.
Arm Night For times when the house is occupied; protects perimeter zones and interior
motion sensors if used. Other interior zones are unprotected. Enabled by your
installer and only used with interior motion sensors.
Instant For times when no one is expected to use the Entry/Exit zone doors.
Entry Delay is eliminated. When the system is armed, an alarm occurs immediately if
an exterior door is opened.
When arming in Away, Stay, or Night (if enabled) modes, Instant mode can be set from
the Security screen (shown below). When using Arm Custom, use the Entry Delay button
on the Arm Custom menu to set Instant mode.
Quick Arm Press to arm the system in any mode without entering a user code,
if

NOTE: Entry and exit delay times are programmed by your installer. There is room to jot them down in
Your System Information, near the end of this guide.
E try Delay
Entry delay allows time to disarm the system when entering the premises. If the system is not disarmed
before the entry delay period ends, an alarm occurs. If programmed, the Controller beeps during the entry
delay period as a reminder to disarm the system.
Two different entry delay periods can be programmed. The first is for the primary entrance, typically, the
front door. The second can be used for a secondary entrance, where more time might be needed to walk
to the Controller to disarm the system.
Exit Delay
Exit delay begins immediately after the system is armed, providing time to leave through the designated
exit door without causing an alarm. In most situations, the touchscreen displays a countdown of the
remaining time. The exit door must be closed before the end of the exit delay.
Typically, the system beeps slowly when counting down to Arm Away; during the last 10 seconds of the
delay period, the beeping speeds up. The exit beeps cannot be silenced unless Silent Exit is selected.
Restart Exit Delay
The Restart Timer button appears only if the option has been programmed by the installer.
Exit delay can be restarted once.
Exit Alarm
This option helps minimize false alarms sent to the monitoring company. Exit Alarm must be enabled by
your installer.
Exit delay begins whenever the system is armed.
•If an exterior door or protected interior zone is faulted during the exit delay (and remains faulted when
the exit delay ends), an exit alarm occurs and an entry delay countdown begins.
•If the system is disarmed before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message Alarm
Cancelled and any faulted zones appear.
•No message is sent to the monitoring company. Any open zones must be secured before the exit
alarm condition can be cleared.
To clear the display, press Disarm and enter a security code.
•If the system is not disarmed before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or interior zone is
still open, the alarm sound continues and an Exit Alarm message is sent to the alarm monitoring
company, along with a “Recent Close” message (if the Recent Close option is enabled).
•The message Alarm Exit Error appears. Faulted zones are also displayed. The alarm will continue to
sound until the system is disarmed or timeout occurs.
To stop the alarm, disarm the system. The message Alarm Cancelled will be displayed. “Alarm” and
faulted zones continue to be displayed.
To clear the display, press Disarm and re-enter the security code.
An exit alarm (“Alarm – Entry Exit”) also occurs if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two
minutes after the end of the exit delay.
