Introduction
Your system helps to secure life, property and investments against
fire, theft and bodily harm. It consists of a keypad (or keypads),
sensors such as motion detectors or devices located on doors
and windows, and other sensing devices designed to detect the
presence of smoke or combustion. The location and quantity of
sensing devices will have already been discussed with you by your
alarm installer.
Control of your security system is achieved through the unique
Vision Graphic keypad, which displays all system information
in written text and graphical symbols. Its versatility and ease of
operation, make it ideal for any home or business application.

User’s Guide
This user’s guide shows you how to use and maintain your security
system. It covers basic functions, such as turning the system on
and off as well as some general programming. More complex
programming and system configuration should be performed by
your installer.
Many of the programming functions described in this guide will have
already been programmed by your alarm installer while others may
need to be programmed or changed by you. Depending on your
particular system configuration some features described in this
manual may not be available. Please discuss this with your alarm
installer.
Functions outlined in this user guide may require you to enter your
PIN (Personal Identification Number) so make sure you choose a
number that is easy to remember. For security reasons do not write
this code down or give it to anyone else. If more than one person
needs to operate the system then you should create a unique code
for them if this has not been done by your installer. This guide will
explain how to do this.
Please take the time to familiarise your self with the following terms
before reading the rest of this guide.
Zones
A ‘Zone’ is a detection device, or group of devices connected
to your security system. Zones are identified by the area they
monitor, such as a front door, bedroom window or hallway.
Faulted Zones
When a zone (such as a door or window) is closed, it is said to be
‘normal’. When the door or window is open, the zone is said to be
‘faulted’. When you turn your system on, you will usually want all
of the zones in your system to be normal, although, you can turn
your system on with faulted zones.
Zones Types
There are two basic types of zones, Non 24-hour and 24-hour.
See below.
Non 24-Hour Zones
Non 24-hour zones respond to alarm conditions depending upon
whether the system is turned on or off. They are programmed to
either respond instantly to alarm conditions or to provide a delay
for you to reach the keypad and turn the system off. Various zones
will be located throughout your premises.
When you turn your system on, you have the option of turning on
all zones (All On), or just some of the zones (Part On). Refer to
All On and Part On, on page 7 for more information.
Bypassed Zones
A zone which has been bypassed will remain unarmed when the
system is armed. You may need to bypass a zone when doing
renovations in the building or if a sensor becomes faulty. Bypassed
zones will reset the next time the system is disarmed.
24-Hour Zones
24-hour zones are always on and cannot be turned off, even when
the system is turned off (disarmed). There are two types of 24-
hour zones, fire zones and non-fire zones.
What Is An Area?
The Vision control panel comes defaulted and programmed for a
single area configuration (Area 1), therefore, all zones are assigned
to Area 1. The alarm system can be divided into 4 individual areas
running off the same Vision control panel. In this case, the security
company would assign different sensors (zones) to each area
according to the area they belong.
Example:
Partitioning a commercial business to 4 individual areas may be as
follows:
Area 1 – Main entry/exit area
Area 2 – Sales
Area 3 – Administration
Area 4 – Dispatch
Each area can be controlled individually as if they were separate
alarm systems.
All On
When you turn an area All On, you are turning on all non 24-hour
zones, both interior (motion detectors) and perimeter (doors and
windows of the building).
Part On
When you turn an area Part On, you only turn on some of the
non 24-hour zones. Your security company will program which
zones are included in this portion. Part zones may include only
the perimeter (doors and windows) or your system, or sensors in
other areas of your premises. Check with your security company
to learn which zones are Part zones.

Reporting Alarms
Your system may be programmed to send reports to your security
company. Once the report is complete, the system returns
the telephone to normal operation (check with your security
company).
Your system makes repeated attempts to send reports to your
security company. If your system fails to report, the keypad will
display the ‘service’ symbol.

Basic System Operation
TURNING AN AREA ALL ON
Use this function to turn an area All On. The Vision control panel
is factory default only for one area. As soon as you turn an area
on, exit time will start. Exit time allows you to exit the premises
without sounding an alarm. Your security company programs the
length of exit delay time.
1. Make sure that all zones are normal (not faulted).
2. Enter your PIN, then press the [ON] key.
If your PIN is valid and if all zones are normal, exit delay time will
start. You should leave now. If your Vision control panel detects a
faulted zone, you should return it to normal, or bypass the zone.
During exit delay, you may stop the area from turning on by entering
your PIN followed by the [OFF] key.
3. To turn the system (or area) off, enter your PIN, then
press [OFF].
TURNING AN AREA PART ON / PART 2 ON
Use this function to turn an area Part On or Part 2 On. The Vision
control panel is factory default only for one area. Part On and Part
2 On turns on only part of the area, leaving the rest of the area
turned off.
Only the security company can program which zones are
monitored for Part On. The master user can program which zones
are monitored when a user turns an area Part 2 On.
Once you have turned an area Part On or Part 2 On, exit delay
time starts to count down. You should leave all zones that are
active before exit delay time expires. Leaving active zones after
exit delay expires causes an alarm event. Use Part On or Part 2 On
only when you want part of an area turned on.
1. Make sure that all zones are normal (not faulted).
2. Enter your PIN, then press the [PART] key.
If your PIN is valid and if all zones are normal, the keypad will
prompt you to select Part On or Part 2 On.
3. Using the arrow keys, highlight Part On or Part 2 On then
press [OK].
Exit delay time will start. You should leave now. If your system
has a faulted zone, you should return it to normal, or bypass the
faulted zone.
During exit delay, you may stop the system from turning Part On
by entering your PIN followed by the [OFF] key.
4. When exit time has expired, the keypad will display the
Part On icon.
5. To turn the system off, enter your PIN, then press [OFF].
TURNING THE SYSTEM OFF
When the system is on, you must enter through a designated entry
door to prevent an alarm. Opening a designated door (e.g. front
door) will start entry time. During entry time, the keypad will emit
a pulsing tone “beep” to remind you to turn the system off. To turn
the area off, enter your PIN followed by the [OFF] key before the
entry delay time expires.
If you enter through the wrong door or fail to turn the system off
before the entry delay time expires, you may sound an alarm. If an
alarm occurs, silence the alarm (by entering your PIN followed by
the [OFF] key) and call your security company to let them know
that it is not an emergency situation.
1. Enter your PIN + [OFF] to turn the system (or area) off.
The keypad will no longer display the ‘Lock’ or ‘Part’ icons.
SILENCING ALARMS
When the Vision control panel has registered an alarm, the keypad
(s) and sirens will sound to alert personnel that an alarm occurred.
The keypad will scroll all alarms on the keypad display for visual
feedback. If you enter your PIN before the system dials your
security company, the alarm report is cancelled (if programmed).
1. Enter your PIN + [OFF] to silence any alarm and turn the
system off.
The keypad will continue to scroll all alarm events that caused the
alarm. This is called alarm memory.
2. To clear alarm memory, turn the area on and off again (eg.
PIN + [ON] + PIN + [OFF]).
AUTOMATIC ARMING
Your system may have been programmed to automatically arm
itself at a certain time of the day.
If for some reason you are still in the building when the auto arming
is taking place then it is possible to extend or delay the auto-on
time (automatic arming time) by one hour simply by entering
your PIN during the auto-on pre-alert time. The auto-on pre-alert
time sounds the keypad buzzer to warn you that the system will
automatically turn All On, Part On or Part 2 On.
Example:
If the control panel is programmed by your installer to automatically
turn All On at 6:00pm and the auto-on pre-alert time starts beeping
the keypad at 5:55pm, entering your PIN between 5:55pm and
6:00pm will delay the auto-on time by one hour and the auto-
on pre-alert time will again commence at 6:55pm. Therefore the
system will automatically turn All On at 7:00pm.

DTMF QUICK ARM
If you forget to arm your system it may be possible for you to
remotely arm it using a touch tone telephone if the remote arm
option has been enabled by your installer.
To arm the system call the number which the panel is connected
to and when the panel answer you will here 3 beeps in accending

PROGRAMMING TEXT USING THE KEYPAD
When programming text via the keypad, various keys on the keypad
operate differently.
A group of characters is assigned to each of the numeric keys on
the keypad. Pressing the same numeric key again will toggle to
the next character assigned to the key (eg. Press the [2] key will
display the ‘A’ character, press the [2] key again will toggle to the

Understanding Timer Groups
Timer Groups are used to restrict users from operating doors
outside given times, days or holidays. To do this you need to create
a time group, then assign one or more schedules to the time group
to specify the access period, day of the week and holidays. To now
restrict the user, they must belong also to the same timer group.
This now restricts the user from accessing the system outside the
nominated times and days within the schedules linked to the timer
group.
User
Can only belong to 1 timer group.
Schedules
Multiple schedules can be linked to the same timer group.
Time Groups
There are 8 different timer groups available.
Timer Group Example
To set up a timer group you need to select an unused timer
group number from 1 to 8, in this example we will assume
timer group number to be 5.
Select an unused schedule and program the times and day of
the week then assign the schedule to timer group 5
Then under user properties assign the users who you wish to
restrict to timer group 5. Remember that you are only able
to assign a user to one access group.
A master code holder is able to change the schedules so they can
change the access times for a given user. If a user tries to operate
the system outside their assigned timer group periods then access
will be denied.
