Glossary
Alarm This is the history of the most recent violations that
Memory occurred the last time the system was armed.
Arm To set the system into the ARMED mode. In this mode,
violating a zone will activate an alarm condition and, if the
system is programmed accordingly, will cause a reporting
code to be sent to the monitoring company.
Bypass To deactivate a zone, so that it will not respond if
violated. When the panel is ARMED, violation of a by-
passed zone will be ignored.
Disarm To take the system out of the armed mode. In this mode,
only a violation of a PANIC zone will activate an alarm
condition. Fire and Medical functions remain active.
Entry/ Exit A zone with a programmable time delay, that allows the
Zone user to exit the premises after arming the system and
time to get to the keypad after entering the armed
premises.
Follower A zone that may be temporarily violated - only after an
Zone entry/exit zone is violated. This allows the user access to
disarm the system. A Follower zone will behave as per
an Instant zone if violated prior to the violation of an entry/
exit zone.
Instant When the system is armed, a violation of an instant zone
Zone will immediately cause an alarm condition to be
registered.
Stay Arm Arming that allows for certain preprogrammed, STAY
or bypassed zones to be violated while the system is
armed.
Stay Arm Arming that allows the user to stay arm and leave the
and Go premises.
Stay Zone Zones which are bypassed automatically when the
system is STAY ARMED.
Zone A specific area of your premises guarded by sensors
which detect violations of that area.

1. Introduction to the IDS400
The IDS400 Control Panel is manufactured to the highest specification
and will provide many years of service if correctly installed and main-
tained. The unit is designed for simple operation yet provides the
maximum protection for you, your family or business. For trouble free
operation please follow the instructions contained in this User Manual.
Your security system consists of a control panel, one or more key-
pads and various sensors and detectors. A metal cabinet will contain
the control panel which includes the system electronics, fuses and
stand-by battery. There is normally no reason for anyone but the
installer or service professional to have access to the control panel.
1.1 Notes
LRead the entire manual carefully and keep it in an accessible
place.
LYour security system should be installed and serviced by a
qualified security professional who should instruct you on the
level of protection that has been provided and on systems
operations.
LIf you have any questions regarding the operation of the system,
contact your security company representative.
LYour system should be tested on a regular basis. Before testing
the system please notify your security company of your intention
to do so.
LNEVER disconnect the mains power as the back-up battery will
eventually discharge which will cause the control panel to
switch off.
LIt may be possible to arm the security system without the back-
up battery connected. Ideally, your periodic tests should be done
with AC power removed to verify the battery is connected and
adequatelycharged.ENSURE THATTHEBATTERY IS
RECONNECTED
LA security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only
intended to alert you and - if included - your central station of an
emergency situation.
LWarningdevices will need tobe visible and loudenough, wired

IDS400 USER MANUAL NO. 700-204-01A ISSUED NOV 2000 VER 1.01 9
IDS400USERMANUAL
correctly, and properly placed to provide notification of an alarm
condition.
LSmoke and heat detectors may not detect all fire situations.
