Congratulations on your ownership of a Honeywell Security System. You have made a wise
decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today.
Honeywell is the world's largest manufacturer of security systems, and millions of premises
are protected by Honeywell products.

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on the
configuration of your system. The system consists of a master keypad for controlling system operation,
various wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and optional smoke or
combustion detectors to provide early fire warning. In addition, optional wireless keypads may have
been installed to allow you to control the system away from the master keypad.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status, display
appropriate information on the keypad display, and initiate appropriate alarms. Your system may also
have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a
central alarm monitoring station.
The user features of this security system are listed below. Ask your installer which features
have been programmed for your system.
•STAY and AWAY arming modes: By using these modes you can protect either the perimeter only,
or the entire premises.
•3 panic key functions: Designated keys allow you to manually activate fire, personal emergency, or
silent alarms. Refer to the PANIC KEYS section for detailed information.
•Paging feature: If programmed by your installer this feature alerts you to certain system
conditions by displaying code numbers that indicate the type of condition that has occurred. In
addition, pressing the AUX key can send a predefined message to your pager, if programmed to do so
(see AUX key function below). Refer to the PAGING FEATURE section for detailed information.
•Follow me system announcements: Allows the LYNXR/LYNXR24 to dial a number, programmed
by your installer, and deliver system announcements.
•Follow me reminder announcements: Allows the LYNXR/LYNXR24 to dial a number, that you
have specified, at a programmed time and day and deliver a message programmed by your installer.
•Real-time clock: Keypad displays current time. Refer to the CLOCK/CALENDAR section for
procedures for setting the time.
•Voice announcement of system status: The master keypad’s built-in speaker announces system
status at the press of a key. Refer to the CHECKING SYSTEM STATUS section for detailed
information.
•Message center: The system allows recording and play back of brief messages. Refer to the
RECORDING/PLAYBACK MESSAGES section for procedures.
•Device activation: Designated keys allow you to turn lights and/or other devices on and off. In
addition, some devices (e.g., a light) may be programmed to activate automatically as a result of a
system event such as an alarm or trouble condition. Refer to the USING POWERLINE CARRIER
DEVICE COMMANDS section for detailed information.

²²
6<67(029(59,(:
)HDWXUHV
•AUX key function: Designated key lets you activate a predefined series of keystrokes with a single
press of the
$8;
key plus user code, or manually send a pager message. It will also allow you to
manually send a voice message to phone number that has been programmed by your installer. Ask
your installer which of these features has been assigned to the
$8;
key in your LYNXR/LYNXR24.
Refer to the AUX FUNCTION section for detailed information.
•Scheduling feature: Allows you to schedule the automatic activation or deactivation of X-10
devices or program events (e.g. alarm clock, reminder, and latch key).
• Phone Control: Provides a remote interactive phone capability that permits access to the security
system from any off-site touch-tone telephone.
• Security Codes: The system is capable of supporting an Installer code, Master user code and six
additional User codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for detailed information.

Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the sensing device
on your entry/exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master
bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These numbers appear on the display when an alarm or trouble
condition occurs.

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an alarm if
a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information
concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from the premises.
%XUJODU\3URWHFWLRQ
Your system provides two modes of burglary protection: STAY and AWAY. STAY mode protects the
perimeter only, allowing you to freely move within inside the premises. AWAY mode protects the entire
system. Both modes provide an entry delay time that allows you to reenter the premises without
setting off an alarm. For additional security, you can turn the entry delay off when arming the system
by using the
12 '(/$<
key in combination with the desired arming key. The system also allows you
to bypass selected zones before arming the system, if desired. Refer to the BYPASSING PROTECTION
ZONES section. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening of
protected doors and windows while the system is disarmed.
You must turn on ("arm") the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary
alarms. To arm the system, enter your user code then press the desired arming key (AWAY or STAY).
Refer to the ARMING THE SYSTEM section for detailed procedures and information.
6HFXULW\&RGHV
At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal 4-digit security or “master user”code. You
must enter the user code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system
functions. As an additional security feature, other users who do not need to know your code can be
assigned up to 6 different security codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for procedures on
adding security codes to the system.
$ODUPV
When an alarm occurs, the keypad and external sounders will sound for about 15-seconds, and the
keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. After 15-seconds, the siren stops temporarily and
voice announcements of the zones in alarm begins. When these zones have been announced, the siren
sounds again and the cycle repeats itself, until the system is disarmed (code + OFF) or until alarm bell
timeout occurs. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be
sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain
displayed indicating memory of alarm. Refer to the DISARMING THE SYSTEM section for
information about clearing the memory of alarm display.

IMPORTANT: If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, an alarm has occurred during
your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT
THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
The keypad allows you to control all system functions. The keypad features telephone-style keys and a
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), which shows the nature and location of all occurrences.

The keypad also features a built-in sounder, which will sound during alarms and troubles. The keypad
also "beeps" during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay times, in Chime mode,
and when depressing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press). In addition, a built-in speaker
announces system status.
The voice announcement volume is adjustable, however the “beeps”that sound in response to alarms
always sound at the maximum volume level. All other “beeps”(trouble, chime, exit/entry, etc) can be
set to either low or high volume.
