SYSTEM OVERVIEW (Continued)
Fire Protection
Chime Feature
The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound
an alarm if a fire condition is detected. When an alarm (or trouble) condition occurs, the
keypad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the
type of alarm or trouble — FIRE and ALARM , or CHECK for trouble. The display remains
until it is cleared by entering an OFF sequence (your security code + OFF key) twice.
Your system can be set to alert you to the opening of a door or window while it is dis-
armed by using the CHIME mode. In this mode, three tones will sound at the Keypad(s)
whenever a door or window is opened.
