LightSYS™2 Architecture
Your LightSYS™2 controls and monitors a variety of sensors, detectors, and contacts
placed throughout the premises, which provide external, perimeter and internal
burglary protection. The system is supervised, meaning that the panel checks the
status of each sensor to detect problems. If trouble is detected, you are notified both
with panel beeps and indicator lights as well as remote messaging.
The following diagram shows the components that make up the system:
User Operating Tools

Remote Phone Operation:
If your system includes the voice module, it can provide audible information about
system status, and enable any remote, touch-tone (DTMF) telephone
to act as a keypad for the system. Upon event occurrence, such as
alarm activation, the voice module informs you by calling you and
playing a
prerecorded event announcement, as described in the 5IN1545 LightSYS Voice
Module Programming and Operations Guide.
SMS:
If your system is equipped with RISCO Group's GSM/GPRS
module it can provide information about the system by SMS
and enable operation of the system using SMS commands for
arming the system, disarming the system and more.
Configuration Software:
RISCO Group's Configuration Software enables the installer to
program the system and manage the system locally or remotely.
System Monitoring
Report to Monitoring Station
When a system event occurs, the control system sends a message to your monitoring
service describing the exact nature of the event. This enables the monitoring service to
perform the required action. Monitoring service notification can be implemented through
either regular telephone cellular communication or IP network.
A sensor detects   The control system is alerted  An alarm is generated and
the monitoring service is notified

Caution:
Remember that no security system can prevent emergencies. This system is only intended to
alert you in case of an emergency and should not take the place of prudent security
practices or life and property insurance.
Follow Me Messaging
When an alarm or event, the system can initiate a report message of up to 16 predefined
designated destinations using a voice announcement, SMS, smartphone app, or email to
express the active event.
SMS Example: Email Message Example:
Security System: Subject: Alarm Security Message: Intruder Alarm
21/01/2011 System Name: John's Residence
Intruder Alarm Event: Fire Alarm, Zone 5, Entrance door
Partition 1 Time: 01 April 2011; 16:12
Entrance Partition: Partition 1, First floor
Service Contact: Monitoring Station 01, 035676778
Your installer defines the type of reporting to a Follow Me destination. Consult your
installer for the report type for each destination.
The definition of the telephone number or Email address for each destination is defined by
the grand master (see page 33).
Notes:
• Voice messaging requires using the LightSYS™2 voice module. This module also
enables the LightSYS™2 to announce various local messages to residents.
• SMS messaging requires the use of the LightSYS™2 GSM/GPRS module.
• Email messaging requires the use of the LightSYS™2 IP module.
LCD Status Display
The LCD status display will vary depending on the number of partitions in your system.
If your system is defined with only one partition, the LCD displays the partition name,
time and date.
If your system has two or three partitions, the LCD displays the system name, date, time
and the status of each partition. A status letter represents the partition’s status, as follows:
A: Partition Armed N: Partition Not Ready L
: Partition in Alarm

Mastering Your System

disabled and the following display will appear on the LCD: Enter code:
To release the keypad and return to normal operation mode press: [CODE] + .
Note:
During blank display mode the Ready LED indicates a trouble in the system.
System Tones
In addition to the visual indications provided by your keypad(s), your system is designed
to produce audible annunciation after certain events. Depending on the circumstance, such
sounds may be made by your system's keypad(s) or sounders (for example, a siren or bell).
Note:
If defined by your installer, internal bell annunciation can be generated to
accompany any of the keypad sounds.

Arming and Disarming
Page 19
Chapter 2 Arming and Disarming
The following chapter describes how to operate your LightSYS™2 locally from the LCD
keypad. For system operation from other accessories, refer to the instructions supplied
with the product.
As a user of your security system, you'll mostly be concerned with the keypad.
The LightSYS™2 LCD keypad is the primary system interface. Each keypad in your system
reports its status via its LCD icons, as described below. Through its keys, you can enter
commands to arm and disarm the system, bypass intrusion zones, report emergencies, and
more, as described in the subsequent chapters of this manual. For detailed information
regarding the keypad interface, refer to the instruction supplied with the keypad.
Notes:
1. There are two types of LCD keypads, with and without proximity for non-contact
arming and disarming.
2. Each keypad in the system is assigned to a particular partition, meaning that
commands entered in a keypad are implemented only in the partition to which it is
assigned. For example, pressing the Quick Arm key on a keypad assigned to
partition 1 arms only partition 1
Arming your system
Arming your system causes the intrusion detectors to trigger an alarm when violated. You
can arm your system by code arming, in which you need to use your user code, or you can
use quick arming (without using a code).
Note:
If during code setting you enter a wrong user code, the keypad produces
three short beeps. Simply re-enter the correct sequence.
Remember, fire protection and the protection offered by the keypad's emergency keys are
always armed and always available (if authorized by your installer).
Before arming the system:
1. Verify that the (ready) icon is lit or flashing indicating that system is READY to
be armed.
2. Make sure that the system includes no violated zones and is ready to be armed.
3. If the system is NOT ready to be armed, secure or bypass the violated zone(s) (see
page 34), and then proceed.
Notes:

Arming and Disarming
Page 20
• If you are unable to arm the system, press to view system messages.
• If defined by your installer, your system can be defined to accept force arming. This
definition arms the system regardless of open zones when using a keyswitch or
automatic arming. Note that force arming the system results in leaving partition(s)
unsecured.
• If defined by your installer, it might be required that all troubles in the system
should be confirmed to enable the arming operation.
Your LightSYS™2 supports the following kinds of arming:
Away (Full) arming
Away arming ( ) prepares all of the system's intrusion detectors to activate an alarm if
violated, and is used when leaving the premises. Once you have armed the system, exit via
the designated final exit door.
To fully arm your system:
1. Verify that the system is ready to be armed.
2. Enter your user code followed by or hold the tag close to the keypad's keys.
3. Leave the premises and close the door. The keypad beeps and the icon flashes
while the system counts down the exit delay time period.
4. When the exit delay time period has expired, the icon lights steadily.
Note:
If defined by your installer, system sirens can sound one chirp, indicating that the system is
armed.
Stay (Home) arming
Stay arming ( ) activates only perimeter detectors (as defined by your installer), enabling
individuals to remain inside and move about the premises while the system is partially
armed.
To stay arm your system:
1. Verify that the system is ready to arm.
2. Enter your user code followed by .
3. During the exit delay time period:
• the keypad beeps
• the icon flashes
