Phones Menu
The PHONES menu lets you set up central station reporting for the system. The following
describes how to program the settings that appear under CS PHONE 1-3.
Keyswitch Sensor (partition 1: 0015, partition 2: 0025)
Security-Partition 1-2 (Default = none)
This feature lets users arm and disarm the system using either a keyswitch wired to
a hardwire zone input or a wireless door/window sensor.
Note
It is recommended that keyswitch sensors are learned into group 28.
For example, if sensor 1 is designated as the keyswitch sensor and the system is
disarmed, then tripping sensor 1 could arm the system to AWAY. If the system is
armed to STAY or AWAY, then tripping the sensor could disarm the system
(depending on keyswitch style).
The panel reports opening, closing, and force armed reports (if turned on) to the
central monitoring station.
Note
A bypassed keyswitch sensor cannot arm or disarm the system.
During an audible alarm, keyswitch sensors can disarm the system (which sends a can-
cel report to the central monitoring station), but cannot arm the system. The system can
be armed only after the siren timeout expires.
Keyswitch sensors test the same as any other sensor and do not arm or disarm the sys-
tem during a sensor test.
¾To assign a Keyswitch Sensor:
1. With the display showing KEY-
SWITCH SENSOR nn
(current sensor
number), enter the desired sensor
number (01–96). The display flashes
the entered sensor number.
2. Press # and the display shows the
new number.
¾
To delete a Keyswitch Sensor:
1. With the display showing KEY-
SWITCH SENSOR nn
(current sensor
number), press D to erase the key-
switch sensor attribute.
Keyswitch Style (partition 1: 0016, partition 2: 0026)
Security-Partition 1-2 (Default = transition)
This feature allows users to select how they want the system to behave when
armed/disarmed by a keyswitch sensor. The choices are as follows:
Transition: If keyswitch style is set to transition and the keyswitch sensor is
tripped (opened) when the system is disarmed (level 1), the panel will auto-
matically arm to AWAY (level 3). If the sensor is tripped (opened) when the
system is armed to AWAY (level 3) or STAY (level 2), the panel will auto-
matically disarm.
State: If keyswitch style is set to state, when the keyswitch sensor is tripped
(opened) the panel arms to AWAY (level 3). If the sensor is restored (closed)
the panel disarms.
Opening, closing, and force arming reports (if turned on) are reported to the
central station for both keyswitch styles.
¾
To assign a Keyswitch Style:
1. With the display showing KEYSWITCH
STYLE TRANSITION/STATE
(current setting),
press 1 for Transition or 2 for State. The
display flashes the entered setting.
2. Press # and the display shows the new set-
ting.
Duress Code (partition 1: 0017, partition 2: 0027)
Security-Partition 1-2 (Default = none)
The duress code is a unique 4-digit access code that allows users to operate
the system and, at the same time, instructs the panel to send a silent alarm
report to the central station.
Do not use a duress code unless it is absolutely necessary. Using duress
codes often results in false alarms due to code entry errors. If a duress code is
absolutely necessary, use it with an audio verification module (AVM) to
reduce false alarms and accidental dispatches.
Note
To use this feature, the Duress Option setting under the
reporting—partition 1 (2) menu
must be turned on.
¾To program a Duress Code:
1. With the display showing DURESS CODE
****, enter the desired 4-digit duress code.
The display flashes the entered setting.
2. Press # and the display shows the new
code.
¾
To delete a Duress Code:
1. With the display showing DURESS CODE
nnnn
(current code), press D. The display
shows DURESS CODE ****.
