DISARMING THE SYSTEM AND SILENCING
ALARMS
Using the
ÊÊ1ÊÊ
OFF Key
IMPORTANT:
If you return and the
main burglary sounder
is on:
DO NOT ENTER, but
CONTACT THE POLICE
from a nearby safe location.
If you return after an
alarm has occurred and
the main sounder
has shut itself off:
the keypad will beep rapidly
upon your entering, indicating
that an alarm has occurred
during your absence
(the Memory of Alarm feature).
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY, and
CONTACT THE POLICE
from a nearby safe location.
WHEN SAFE TO DO SO,
re-enter
and follow the procedure
for silencing an alarm.
The OFF key is used to disarm the system and to silence alarm and
trouble sounds.
To Disarm the System
Enter your security code and press the OFF key. The "Ready" message
will be displayed, and the keypad will emit a single tone to confirm that the
system is disarmed.
To Silence a Burglary Alarm
SEE IMPORTANT NOTE AT LEFT!
Enter your security code and press the OFF key to silence the alarm (or
warning tones of a Memory of Alarm). Note the zone in alarm on the
keypad display, and make that zone intact (close door, window, etc.). Now
enter the security code plus OFF sequence again to clear the keypad's
Memory of Alarm display. If the display will not clear and does not provide
a "Ready" message, notify the alarm agency.
To Silence a Fire Alarm simply press the OFF key (the security code is not
needed to silence FIRE alarms). To then clear the keypad's Memory of
Alarm display, enter your security code and press the OFF key.
See page 29 for additional fire alarm information.
See the SUMMARY OF AUDIBLE/VISUAL NOTIFICATION section
for information which will help you to distinguish between FIRE
(Interrupted/Pulsed) and BURGLARY (Continuous/Steady) alarm
sounds.
