To Arm (to turn the system on):
Make sure you have a steady green light, if you do, enter your personal code and leave.
You have 30 seconds to leave the premises through the doors programmed for delay (usually the
front and garage door).
If your green light is flashing a zone (door/window) is open. The red flashing number
along with tit indicates which zone is open. If this zone ex: 07 kitchen door is closed if the light
continues to tell you it is open , bypass the zone then call the office for further instructions.
Once that zone is bypassed and you have a steady green light and a steady amber light enter
your code and leave.
To Disarm (turn the system off):
Enter your code. The red light will turn green. If your code will not turn the system off
wait 5 seconds and retry.
To change your personal code:
Press and hold button 8 until it beeps (3 seconds)
Enter 222 (keypad will start beeping and lights will flash)
Press bypass key (b/a) two times then press #1 (user # 1)
Enter the new code. Code can be up to 4 digits. Do not use 1-2 in sequence.
Press the bypass key three times. This will enter new code.
Arm and Disarm system. Check new code and previous code to make sure it is cleared out.
To add additional codes:
Follow the same instructions above. When you get to line #3 instead of entering a 1,
enter 2 (for user #2), 3 (for user #3) etc.
This system will hold up to 15 codes.
To bypass a zone:
Press (b/a) bypass key. This key is located on the bottom row of buttons. Then enter the
zone number you want to bypass. The bypass key is also the zero key. For example to bypass the
Kitchen door -zone #07 - you would enter bypass-bypass-7.
Chime Feature:
Key 5 is used to active the chime zone. That is, whenever a door or window is opened, a
two second tone will be heard from each keypad. To turn this function on and off, hold down
button 5 for 3 seconds. This will let you know when someone is coming or going without the
system being armed.
Siren/Battery Check:
This should be done monthly. Press and hold key 1. The sirens will sound and will quit
after 3 seconds. If a nothing is heard, or a low sound, most likely you need a replacement back

up battery. These batteries only last 3-5 years.
Displayed Bypass:
Holding down key 2 until it beeps will display any zones that have been bypassed
Reset Button:
Key 9 is the reset button it has to be pressed and held down for 3 seconds in order to reset
your system. A tone will be heard to indicate that the alarm has been reset. This button is used to
clear the alarm history or to reset the smoke detectors after a fire alarm. The fire/trouble light
may take up to 1 minute to clear off the keypad.
Deleting Entry Delay:
When arming they system, hold key 4 down for three seconds until a beep is heard, then
enter your code number. This will arm the system and take away the 30 second entry delay. It
does not take away the 30 second exit time. For example, when one person leaves early and the
other is still asleep, there will be no delay time for an intruder to enter. A rapid flashing light will
indicate the entry delay has been cancelled.
Alarm History:
After the alarm has been violated the zone number will continue to flash on the keypad
until the keypad has been reset. To check for an alarm history press and hold the bypass key.
This can be confused with an open zone - only the green light will be steady.
Panic Alarm:
Press the * and the # button simultaneously.
This will instantly set the alarm off. If the system was not armed when the panic buttons were hit
your personal code will need to be entered twice to turn the sirens off.
Fire/Trouble:
Not all alarms have smoke detectors tied into the security system. If your smoke detectors have a
9 volt battery that needs to be changed, they are not a part of the security system.
Smoke Detectors do need to be cleaned at least once a year. This can be done with a vacuum or
a can of spray air.
If the smoke alarm has been activated and the sirens are going off you will need to enter
your personal code once if the system was on, or twice if the system was off. Press and hold key
9 to reset the system. After 30 seconds the fire/trouble light will clear.
Please Note: If you are connected to a monitoring service the fire department will be dispatched.
The monitoring company does not call to verify fire alarm signals.
Locating Main Alarm Panel/Power
It is very important to find the control panel and know how to disable the alarm in case of
emergency (ex: keypad failure or power surge). The control panel is located in a white metal box
hanging on a wall in a basement or closet area. You will need a screwdriver to open the box.

Inside the box is the back up battery, remove the plastic terminals from the battery. Next locate
the transformer (a small 2” black or tan plug) plugged into an electrical outlet near the panel box.
It may be screwed into the electrical outlet. Once both the transformer and battery are unplugged
the security system will be shut down. The keypads should have no lights. Until the power is
restored the system will remain deactivated. No information will be lost in the memory except
for the date and time.
Connecting to a Central Station to contact the Police
This alarm system has a digital communicator built in to the control panel box that will allow
you to connect with a monitoring company. Vacuflo does offer this service with a company
called Affiliated Central. There is no hook up fees and the monthly rate is $25. We do bill our
monitored customers in 3,6 or 12 month cycles. Annual billed customers receive a $25 discount.
We do not require a long term contract to be signed. Please contact the office for more
information. Fayette County residents do need to apply for
and receive the False Alarm Reduction Permit before monitoring service can be activated.
