Important Messages to the Owner:
In the following paragraphs there may be some terminology that you are not familiar with. Return to this section after you famil-
iarize yourself with your security system.
Arming Your System with Doors or Windows Open: Any sensors that are open when the system is armed will be bypassed after
the exit delay has expired. This means they will not be protecting your home. If you wish to bypass a sensor after you have armed
your system, you must first disarm the system, then open the door or window you want bypassed. Your system will tell you if a
protected door or window is open when you arm the system.
CAUTION! If you use the Control Panel to arm your security system when leaving your home, be aware of the following:
You must exit before the end of the delay period or an alarm will sound. Remember, when arming you will hear 2, 3, or 4 beeps
at the beginning of the exit delay (see page 5 of this manual to determine the meaning of control panel/system beeps). At the
end of the exit delay, the system beeps 2, 3, or 4 additional beeps. If you exit at that time (after the exit delay), your system as-
sumesyou arenow returning to your home. The systemis nowcounting down the entry delay time and will expect you todisarm
the system within the entry delay time or it will go into alarm.
Something may have happened while you were away! If you enter your home and hear alarm sirens or notice the SYSTEM
STATUS button is blinking, an intruder may be inside or another emergency may have occurred. Leave immediately, and call for
non-medical emergency help.
Canceling Accidental Alarms: You have up to 60 seconds after causing an accidental alarm to disarm your security system. If
the programmed seconds have passed, you must call the central monitoring station to cancel the alarm.
Notices for UL-Listed Installations:
• This system is suitable for Grade A household burglary applications.

Introduction to Your System
Your security system uses wireless technology to warn your
family about intrusion.
The system is designed to be monitored and/or to send mes-
sages to a numeric pager.
The security system uses devices called sensors which use
radio waves to communicate alarms to the Control Panel.
The system is supervised, meaning that the Control Panel
checks the status of each sensor to detect problems. If the
Control Panel detects trouble it will notify you with beeps and
indicator lights on the Control Panel itself.
Typical Security System Components
A typical security system installation may consist of the follow-
ing devices:
Control Panel
The Control Panel is used to operate and program your secu-
rity system. It communicates to you through panel voice mes-
sages, panel beeps, and by lighting buttons on the Control
Panel. The Control Panel can communicate to a central mon-
itoring station and/or a numeric pager.
KeyChain Touchpads (Optional)
KeyChain Touchpads are used to control the security system
from within or near the outside of your home.
Indoor Motion Sensors
Indoor Motion Sensors detect motion. They are used for intru-
sion protection.
Door/Window Sensors
Door/Window Sensors detect the opening of a door or win-
dow.
Door/Window Sensors
Keychain
Touchpad

Security System Beeps, Lights, and Messages
Your security system communicates to you through the use of panel voice messages, panel beeps, indicator lights on the panel
and to a numeric pager if programmed.
You communicate to your security system with key presses on the Control Panel or KeyChain touchpads. Disarming and pro-
gramming require you to input a 4-digit access code. The Master Access Code default is 1-2-3-4 when the security system
is shipped from the factory. You should change it to a code known only by you.
Panel Voice Messages
When you press the buttons on the Control Panel or a touchpad, the Control Panel responds with voice messages. Panel voice
can be enabled or disabled (see “What You Can Change:”on page 8).
These messages may respond with system information or prompt you to take further action. For example, if you want to disarm
the system and you press the DISARM button, the Control Panel responds by saying, Please enter your access code.
If you press a button and thefeature has not been programmed into the Control Panel, the panelvoice will respond with Function
not available.
Panel Beeps
Panel beeps are used to indicate key presses, status, and problems with the system. Panel beeps can be enabled or disabled
(see “What You Can Change:”on page 8).
Note: You may receive a different number of panel beeps if buttons are pressed quickly.
Use the following table to understand the beeps used by the security system.
Table 1: Panel Beeps
Activity Beep Response
ARM Doors & Windows Exit delay and Entry delay beeps sound 2 times every 5 seconds and 2 times per second

•AC Power Restoral - A restoral will be reported when
power is restored.
•Alarms - Alarm reports include: Intrusion (Police), Auxil-
iary, and panic access code alarms.
Sensor Test or Phone Test . A sensor test or phone
test can be performed by following the instructions given in the
section labeled “Manual Tests--What You Need to Test”on
page 11 of this manual.
Access Codes. Your security system has a master
access code, access codes 1-5, and a panic code. The mas-
ter code is used for disarming and programming your system.
Access codes 1-5 are generally used for children or as tem-
porary codes for a babysitter or service personnel and may
be used only for disarming. The panic code may be entered
to disarm or subdisarm the system in a non-medical emer-
gency situation. The Control Panel will call the central station,
but there will be no indication of an alarm at the Control
Panel.
Note: Because different codes can be entered using the
same button presses you have to use caution when program-
ming the panic code. You need to ensure that the panic code
does not use the same button presses as other access
codes. For example if the master code is 1234, do not pro-
gram the panic code to be 2244. The Control Panel would
interpret these codes to be the same code.
Set Clock. If the panel loses power, the clock must be set.
Programming Using Panel Decal
The programming decal is visible when you open the Control Panel cover. This decal is designed to make system programming
easier for you. Always begin by choosing a button from the START MENU. Follow the voice prompts and flow arrows to com-
plete the desired task. Notice the button flow diagrams under Instruction Summary to the lower left of the buttons.

Automatic Control Panel Testing--What the
System Tests for You
Your security system is able to automatically test itself for:
•Power failures
•Low batteries
•Non-working sensors
•Communication troubles with the Central Monitoring Sta-
tion
Trouble Beeps. When your security system detects one
of the problems above, interior sirens sound trouble beeps
rapidlysixtimes,andthenagaineveryminute,untilthetrouble
condition is corrected.
If you do a status check by pressing the SYSTEM STATUS
button twice or change the system from being armed to dis-
armed or disarmed to armed, the beeps will stop. If the prob-
lem is not corrected, beeps start again 4 hours later.
AC Power Failure. This condition occurs if your security
system has been accidentally unplugged or if there has been
an AC power outage. The backup battery will take over. If AC
power is not restored within 15 seconds, the panel will go dark
and alert you with trouble beeps. If you press any button, the
display will light and pressing SYSTEM STATUS will confirm
the AC power failure. If AC power is not restored within a pro-
grammed period of time (5-254 minutes) the system will call
thecentralmonitoring station(ifprogrammedbyinstaller).The
backup battery, if fully charged, will last for 18 - 24 hours with
no AC power.
System Battery Failure. This condition occurs if the
emergency backup battery has failed. Status beeps will start
and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYS-
TEM STATUS button to hear the trouble message. If your AC
powerisnotworking,yoursecuritysystemwillshutdownonce
the battery has failed. If the condition does not clear after AC
power has been restored and 24 hours have passed, call your
security system dealer.
Sensor Failure. This condition occurs if a sensor is not
communicating with the Control Panel. Trouble beeps will
start and the SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the
SYSTEM STATUS buttontwice to hear which sensor(s) have
trouble. Perform sensor tests. It may be necessary for you to
call your security system dealer if the problem continues.
Sensor Low Battery. This condition occurs if a system
sensor has a low battery. The sensor may still be communicat-
ing with the Control Panel. Trouble beeps will start and the
SYSTEM STATUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STA-
TUS button twice tohear which sensor(s) have trouble. It may
be necessary for you to call your security system dealer to re-
solve this problem. Some sensor batteries can be replaced by
the homeowner.
Fail-To-Communicate. This condition occurs if your se-
curity system cannot communicate to the central monitoring
station. Your system will try to report to the central monitoring
station 8 times before it tells you there is a Fail-To-Communi-
cate problem. Trouble beeps will start and the SYSTEM STA-
TUS button will light. Press the SYSTEM STATUS button
twice to hear the trouble message. It may be necessary for
you to call your security system dealer if the problem contin-
ues.
Sensor Open. This condition occurs if a door or windowis
open,or asystemsensorhasbeendisturbedor tamperedand
not reset properly. For example, a Motion Sensor may be off
the wall or a Door/Window Sensor cover may have been re-
moved from the sensor. Your system will indicate this condi-
tion to you by causing the SYSTEM STATUS button to light.
When you press this button twice, the system responds with
Sensor # Name open. Correct the problem by resetting the
sensor. If this condition continues call your security system
dealer
Siren 1 or 2 Failure. Call your security system dealer.
System Access Alarm. The Control Panel cover was
opened while the system was armed. The system will call the
central monitoring station to report a tamper alarm.
Manual Tests--What You Need to Test
As an added safeguard, there are system tests you should do
yourself on a regular basis. The Control Panel cover in the
Silencing Trouble Beeps
Pressing the SYSTEM STATUS button twice or
changing from armed to disarmed or disarmed to
armed while the system has a trouble condition
stops the trouble beeps. Trouble beeps begin again
4 hours later, in some cases, unless the trouble
condition is corrected.
Clearing System Status
If a trouble condition is corrected, press the SYSTEM
STATUS button, listen to the status message, then
press the DISARM button to clear system status. If the
trouble condition was a low CPU battery, perform a sen-
sor test. The SYSTEM STATUS button should turn off if
all trouble conditions have been corrected.
