ADT Security Services 8112 Home Security System User Manual


 
Turning the System On (Arming)
With Doors or Windows Open
If a protected door or window is open, you may have
the option of “force arming” with that point faulted.
Faulted points (opened doors or windows) that are
force armed are not included in the system. The
remaining points arm normally.
Force armed points either return to normal operation
after you turn off your system or return to normal
when the door or window is closed. Your system might
not offer force arming or it may be restricted to
specific points. Contact your security company for
more information.
1. Use your passcode or an arming function to start
the arming process.
2. The display shows CHK AREA X.
3. Press NEXT repeatedly to scroll through the point
text for each faulted point. FORCE ARM
displays after the text for the last faulted point.
Turning the System On (Arming)
With a Duress Passcode
Your passcode may have a special duress feature that
is simply your personal passcode with its last digit
increased by 1 or 2.
If an intruder demands that you arm or disarm the
security system, you can use your duress passcode.
The duress passcode arms or disarms the system and
sends an alarm report to your security company. There
is no alarm tone or visual indication at the premises
that the report is sent. Check with your security
company before attempting to use this feature.
