1.0 INTRODUCTION
Your Security System is an advanced technology security
system that will provide you with reliable security protection and
powerful features that are easy to use.
Since you will communicate your instructions to your system
through the keypad, please read this manual carefully and have
your installer explain basic system operation.
1.1 LEGEND
Indicates a warning or an important note.
Indicates useful information or tip.
[WORD]
[NUMBER] Indicates information that must be entered on the keypad.
Italics Indicates references to features, options or sections.
2.0 BASIC OPERATION
Your security system communicates by illuminating the “AC”
Light, the “Status” Light, and the various symbols on the screen
as explained in Figure 2-1.

2.1 AUDITORYFEEDBACK (BEEP TONES)
When you enter information on the keypad, the keypad will guide
KLEDEU03.fm Page 5 Friday, May 4, 2001 11:25 AM

you with beep tones to communicate acceptance or rejection of
your entries.
Confirmation Beep: When an operation (i.e. arming/disarming)
is successfully entered or when the system switches to a new
status/menu, the keypad emits an intermittent beep tone (“BEEP-
BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP”).
Half Beep: When a step of an operation is successfully entered
on the keypad, the keypad emits a short intermittent beep tone
(“BEEP-BEEP-BEEP”).
Rejection Beep: When reverting to a previous status, or when
an operation is incorrectly entered, the keypad emits a
continuous beep (“BEEEEEEEEP”).
2.2 KEYPAD INDICATORLIGHTS
On all LED Keypads, the state of the “STATUS”, “AC” Lights, and
Action Symbols (see Figure 2-1 page5) represents a specific
condition in your system.
2.3 LED KEYPADS
There are two versions of the LED Keypad: the 20-zone, and the
48-zone. Each keypad can be assigned to one area or many
areas in a Partitioned System. The two keypads function in the
same way and any reference to one keypad applies to each of
the LED Keypads. The only difference between the versions is
the number of zones that each can display.

2.3.1 Normal Mode
When no actions are being performed on the keypad, the keypad
will remain in Normal Mode. In Normal Mode the LED keypad will
illuminate:
•The “AC” Light if power is present
•The Numerical Symbols representing any open zones
•The Area Symbols if any areas are armed
•The [MEM]Symbol if any alarms have occurred
•The [TRBL]Symbol if any troubles are occurring
•The [BYP]Symbol if zones are bypassed and show the status
of the “Status” Light (see Figure 2-1,page5)
2.3.2 Confidential Mode
The installer can program the keypads not to display the status
of your system automatically by changing the LED keypad from
Normal Mode to Confidential Mode. In Confidential Mode all the
Symbols and Keypad Indicator Lights are extinguished.
Depending on how your keypad was programmed by the
installer, you must either press a button or enter your User
Access Code to activate Normal Mode.
2.3.3 Backlight
The illumination behind the buttons can be modified to suit your
needs.
How do I modify the Backlight?
1) Enter your [ACCESS CODE].
The keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep. The [ACCESS]
Symbol will flash.

2.4 PARTITIONEDSYSTEM
Your installer can design your system to recognize up to four
separate protected areas. A separated system is called a
Partitioned System, which can be useful in situations where
shared security systems are more practical. For example, a
company that has both an office area and a warehouse area can
arm and disarm each area separately and control the access to
each area. Therefore, one person may have access to only one
area, whereas another person may have access to all areas.
Access to the areas is determined by the User Access Code.
2.5 AREASTATUSDISPLAY
In Area Status Display you will be able to see the status of the
individual areas in a Partitioned System (see section 2.4).
2) Press the button.
The keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep, the [PRG] Symbol
will illuminate, and the Numerical Symbol for the current set-
ting will illuminate.
3) Use the and buttons to increase or decrease the
illumination.
The range is between zero (Numerical Symbol [10]) and
seven (Numerical Symbol [7]) with seven being the brightest.
4) Press the button to save and exit.
KLEDEU03.fm Page 8 Friday, May 4, 2001 11:25 AM

In Area Status Display the following will illuminate for the area
selected:
•The Area Symbol (A1, A2, A3, and A4) if the area is armed.
For example, if you press , and Area 3 is armed, [A3] will
illuminate.
•The Numerical Symbols representing any open zones. For
example, if zone 6 was open, then the Numerical Symbol [6]
would illuminate.
•The [MEM]Symbol if any alarms have occurred
•The [TRBL]Symbol if any troubles are occurring
•The [STAY]Symbol if the area is Stay or Instant Armed
•The [FORCE]Symbol if the area is Force Armed
•The [BYP]Symbol if zones are bypassed
•The state of the “Status” Light
How do I see the status of the zones?
1) Enter your [ACCESS CODE]
2) Press the numbered button corresponding to the desired area:
= Area 1 = Area 3
= Area 2 = Area 4
3) The keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep and will remain in that
Area’s status for two minutes then return to Normal or
Confidential Mode. You can perform the next desired action
from Area Status Display.

3.0 ARMING
When the system is armed, it will respond to any breach in the
zones according to the way each zone is programmed. For
example, if someone opens a window that is armed, the system
can trigger an alarm and alert your Security Company.
3.1 EXITDELAYTIMER
When you arm the system, it will start the Exit Delay Timer to
provide you with enough time to exit the protected area before the
system is armed. The Status Light will flash green while the time
elapses. The timer can be assigned different time limits and the
keypad can be programmed to beep while the time elapses on the
timer. Discuss these options with your installer.
3.2 REGULAR ARMING
This method is used for the everyday arming of the system. All
zones within the protected area must be closed to arm the
system. To check the status of the zones in each area, refer to
section 2.5 on page 8 Area Status Display.
KLEDEU03.fm Page 10 Friday, May 4, 2001 11:25 AM

LED Keypads 11
If enabled by your installer, the One-Touch Buttons
(section 3.6 on page 14) or a keyswitch (section 3.7 on
page 15) can also be used to arm the area.
3.3 STAYARMING
Stay Arming will partially arm your system to permit you to
remain in the protected area. Based on your instructions, your
installer will program specific zones as Stay Zones. These zones
will not arm when you Stay Arm. For example, you can arm your
doors and windows at home without arming the motion detectors
so you will be protected while you sleep. Only User Access
Codes with the Stay and Instant Arm option enabled can Stay
Arm the system. Also, see section 3.8 on page 16 Auto-Arming
for another everyday arming option.
How do I regular arm the system?
1) Enter your [ACCESS CODE].
The keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep. The [ACCESS]
Symbol will flash.
2) Press the button.
If you have access to more than one area, press the
Number Button representing the area you want to arm or
[0] for all assigned areas.
After the Confirmation Beep, the Exit Delay Timer will begin.

If enabled by your installer, the One-Touch Buttons
(section 3.6 on page 14) or a keyswitch (section 3.7 on
page 15) can also be used to arm the area.
3.4 INSTANTARMING
This feature is similar to Stay Arming. Instant Arming will partially arm
your system to permit you to remain in the protected area, but all
zones, including the entry/exit point, are changed to instant alarm
zones. Therefore, if any armed zone is breached, the alarm will
instantly be triggered. Only User Access Codes with the Stay and
Instant Arm option enabled will be able to Instant Arm.
How do I Stay Arm?
1) Enter your [ACCESS CODE].
The keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep. The [ACCESS]
Symbol will flash.
2) Press button.
If you have access to more than one area, press the
Number Button representing the area you want to Stay
Arm or [0] for all assigned areas.
After the Confirmation Beep, the Exit Delay Timer will
begin the countdown to arming.

If enabled by your installer, the One-Touch Buttons
(section 3.6 on page 14) or a keyswitch (section 3.7 on
page 15) can also be used to arm the area.
3.5 FORCEARMING
Force Arming allows you to arm your system when specific
zones are open. Certain zones can be programmed by the
installer to remain unarmed when you initiate Force Arming.
Once the open zone is closed, however, the system will then arm
it as well. Only User Access Codes with the Force Arm option
enabled can Force Arm the system. Also, see section 3.8 on
page 16 Auto-Arming for another everyday arming option.
This feature is commonly used when a motion detector is
protecting an area that is occupied by a keypad. During Force

during a specified period of time. Speak to your installer about
this feature.
3.9 BYPASS PROGRAMMING
The installer can program certain zones with the bypass option.
This will enable you to program the system to bypass certain
zones when you arm the protected area. When a zone is
bypassed, it will remain unarmed once the system is armed. This
option may be useful, for example, when you are renovating part
of the protected area. The system will keep the bypassed
zone(s) in memory until the area is armed. Once the area is
