SECTION 1–
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your selection of the Commander 2000 security system! This system is
designed to provide you with years of dependable service.
This manual includes step-by-step instructions for the proper use of your security system. Read this
manual before you begin using your system.
How the System Works
The Commander 2000 security system is a wireless, supervised system. Wireless means
that most sensors use radio waves instead of wires to communicate with the Control Panel
(panel). With a supervised system, the wireless sensors communicate with the panel on a
regular basis. There are three features that are unique to supervised security systems:
 Automatic Sensor Communication Testing
The system receives a signal from each sensor every 64 minutes. This signal tracks
sensor communication.
 User Friendly Arming
The system tracks the status of each sensor and sounds protest beeps if sensors are
open or have a trouble condition when you attempt to arm. If you ignore these protest
beeps, the panel automatically bypasses the protesting sensor(s) and arms the system
to the desired level.
 Sensor Battery Monitoring
The system notifies you of sensors with low batteries.
These three features help ensure that your Commander 2000 system handles alarm condi-
tions in the appropriate manner.
Typical System Components
Figure 1 shows a typical system configuration, highlighting the devices that communicate
with the panel and the devices that the panel controls in response to system conditions.
A description of typical system components begins on page 8.

Panel
The panel is your security system’s most vital component (see Figure 2). It per-
forms four main functions:
■Lets you operate the system and set system options.
■Provides you with feedback from the system through indicator lights, voice
messages, and status and alarm beeps.
■Receives signals from wireless sensors and wireless touchpads throughout
the premises.
■Responds to alarm and trouble conditions by reporting with voice and alarm
sounds; controlling output devices, including sirens and X-10®Lamp Mod-
ules; and if necessary, contacting your monitoring service over the phone
line.
Figure 2. Panel Lights, Buttons, and Speaker
Wireless Sensors
Wireless sensors are your security system’s detection devices. They perform two
functions:
■Notifies the panel if a change in the normal state of a sensor occurs. For
example, if the system is armed and you open a protected door, the sensor
reports to the panel and an intrusion siren sounds.

■Checks in with the panel approximately every hour to indicate proper opera-
tion. If a sensor fails to report to the panel within a specified time (pro-
grammed by your security consultant), a communication failure is reported
to the monitoring service and the system sounds trouble beeps (see Section
6, "Troubleshooting Your System").
Wireless Touchpads
Wireless touchpads let you operate the system inside or outside the premises. A
wireless touchpad’s range will vary, depending on the conditions of the premises
and the location of the panel relative to the wireless touchpad.
NOTE: The Energy Saver option, shown on button 5 of the Hand-
held and Wall-Mount Wireless Touchpads, is not available
with the Commander 2000.
Sirens
Sirens create two types of sounds, which alert you to the following:

SECTION 3–
BASIC SYSTEM OPERATIONS
This section describes how to perform the basic system operations, including: using access codes,
entering and exiting the premises, turning the system on and off, and activating emergency alarms.
Using Access Codes
An access code is a four-digit number that lets you operate the system and prevents unau-
thorized use of the system. An access code is required for most system commands (unless
you are using the Magic Key™).
WARNING: Select access codes you and other system users will
remember. If you forget your primary access code, con-
tact your security consultant.
Primary Access Code
The primary access code allows you to perform all system commands. The sys-
tem allows you to have one primary access code. The default primary access
code is 1234. You should change your primary access code from the default to a
number that you can remember.
■To change your primary access code:
1. Enter primary ACCESS CODE + STATUS + 8.
The panel beeps once.
2. Enter the new primary ACCESS CODE.
After five seconds, the panel announces, [new primary access code] OK,
indicating that the primary access code was changed.
NOTE: Because the first two digits of your duress code are the
same as the first two digits of the primary access code,
when you change the primary access code, the duress
code also changes (see "Silent Duress Alarm" on page 25).
NOTE: If your temporary access code is disabled, then changing
your primary access code will automatically make your
old primary access code the new temporary access
code. If you want the temporary access code to remain
disabled, you must disable it again using your new primary

access code each time you change your primary access
code.
Temporary Access Code
The temporary access code allows you to perform all system commands except
changing access codes and bypassing sensors directly. The system allows you to
have one temporary access code. You might give the temporary access code to a
babysitter or other service personnel.
■To add or change the temporary access code:
1. Enter primary ACCESS CODE + STATUS + 7.
The panel beeps once.
2. Enter the temporary ACCESS CODE.
After five seconds, the panel announces, [temporary access code] OK,
indicating that the temporary access code was changed.
■To disable the temporary access code:
1. Enter primary ACCESS CODE + STATUS + 7.
The panel beeps once.
2. Enter the primary ACCESS CODE.
After five seconds, the panel announces, [primary access code] OK, indi-
cating that the temporary access code was deleted.
NOTE: If your temporary access code is disabled, then changing
your primary access code will automatically make your
old primary access code the new temporary access
code. If you want the temporary access code to remain
disabled, you must disable it again using your new primary
access code each time you change your primary access
code.
Secondary Access Codes
Secondary access codes allow you to perform all system commands, except
changing access codes and bypassing sensors directly. You can have up to four
secondary access codes. The secondary access codes can be used in the same way
as the temporary access code, except the secondary access codes can only be set
and changed by your security consultant.

Entering and Exiting Premises
While the system is armed, delay times let you enter or exit through designated delay
doors without causing an alarm. A delay door is any door that is assigned a delay time. If
you activate any sensor before you open the delay door, an instant alarm sounds. When
entering the armed premises, you must disarm the system within the entry delay time.
After arming the system, you must exit the premises before the exit delay time expires.
There are two types of delays: standard and extended. Your security consultant will set up
and explain your system’s delays. Contact your security consultant to have your delay
times changed.
Entering the Premises
To prevent an alarm when entering the armed premises, you must:
■Enter the extended delay door and disarm the system within the extended
delay time.
or– Enter the standard delay door and disarm the system within the standard
entry delay time.
or– Enter the extended delay door, then enter the standard delay door and disarm
the system within the standard entry delay time or within the time remaining
for the extended delay, whichever is less.
Example: The extended delay is set to 4 minutes, and the standard entry delay is
set to 32 seconds. If you enter the extended delay door and then open the standard
delay door after 3 minutes and 50 seconds, you have 10 seconds to disarm the
system.
If you enter the extended delay door and open the standard delay door after 2
minutes, the extended delay is canceled and you have 32 seconds to disarm the
system.
Exiting the Premises
To prevent an alarm when exiting the armed premises, you must:
■Exit the standard delay door within the standard exit delay time.
or– Exit the extended delay door within the standard exit delay and the remain-
ing extended delay.
Example: The standard exit delay is set to 32 seconds, and the extended delay is
set to 4 minutes. If you arm your system and exit the standard delay door in 22
seconds, then you must exit the extended delay door within 4 minutes and 10 sec-
onds.

Arming and Disarming Your System
This section describes levels of security and how to arm and disarm the system.
Turning System Off
Use level 1 (OFF) to turn the system off when entering the premises with the sys-
tem armed to level 2 or 3 and when canceling an accidental alarm. Level 1 dis-
arms your perimeter and interior sensors. The 24-hour sensors (such as smoke,
heat, freeze, emergency buttons, and fire pull stations) always remain armed.
CAUTION: Do not enter the premises if you hear sirens. Call
for emergency help from a neighbor’s phone.
■To disarm the system from the panel or a Handheld
Touchpad:
1. Enter the premises through a delay door when the system is armed to level 2
or 3.
The panel and interior sirens sound entry delay beeps for the entire delay or
until you disarm the panel. You must disarm the system before the delay
time expires, or an alarm occurs.
CAUTION: Exit the premises immediately if the entry delay
beeps sound at a more rapid pace. This indicates
an alarm has occurred. Call for emergency help
from a neighbor’s phone.
2. Enter ACCESS CODE + 1.
The AWAY or STAY light turns off, and the panel and interior sirens sound
an arming level beep, and the panel announces, Alarm system is OFF, if you
disarmed from the panel.
CAUTION: If you disarm the system before entering the
premises, do not enter the premises if you hear
protest beeps. This indicates an alarm has
occurred. Call for emergency help from a
neighbor’s phone. For more information on this
feature, contact your security consultant.
3. Press STATUS to learn if there are any system problems.

The panel announces, Sensor [sensor #] [alarm type] alarm memory.
Alarm system is OFF.
Example: Sensor 16 intrusion alarm memory. Alarm system is OFF. Alarm
type may be intrusion, fire, or help.
If the panel is disarmed before a call is made to the monitoring service (from
8 to 20 seconds), the panel announces, Sensor [sensor #] [alarm type]
alarm memory. Alarm system is OFF. Alarm bypassed.
Turning System On (STAY and AWAY)
Arming the system means you are turning on intrusion detection. Depending on
the level you arm to, an alarm occurs if a perimeter or interior sensor is activated.
Use level 2 (STAY) when you want to stay in the premises with perimeter sensors
armed. Using level 2, you can also leave the premises through any delay door
during the delay time. Level 2 arms all perimeter sensors, including door/win-
dow, shock, and glass break sensors, as well as all sensors that are active in level
1 (24-hour sensors).
Use level 3 (AWAY) when you are leaving the premises and want all sensors
armed. Level 3 arms all interior sensors, such as motion sensors, as well as all
sensors that are active in levels 1 and 2.
