Notes on Arming/Disarming Multiple Partitions from Alphanumeric and Fixed Display
Touchpads
A partition cannot be armed or disarmed if it is being controlled by another source at that
time. For example, if you are at a Partition 1 touchpad and are attempting to arm Partitions 1
and 2, a Partition 2 touchpad in use at that same time prevents arming of that partition.
Any arming modifiers (4—No Delay, 6—Latchkey) selected at arming apply to all associated
partitions. However, silent arming (5—Silent) only affects the partition you are arming from.
All other partitions sound exit beeps to notify occupants that those partitions are arming.
When arming multiple partitions, any conditions that prevent arming (open, trouble, active
alarm, etc.) are identified on system touchpad displays with the affected partition number
flashing. (If arming from a keychain touchpad, the condition is displayed on touchpad dis-
plays in the affected partition, while other touchpad displays show PROTEST). The normal
protest/auto force arm sequence follows, or you can press * to cancel the arming request.
When disarming multiple partitions, any partitions in alarm have the affected partition num-
ber flashing on system touchpad displays. Pressing
# cancels all alarms in the associated par-
titions. Alarm memory information is then displayed for all canceled alarms.
To arm multiple partitions at the same time from a keychain touchpad:
Press the Lock button.
To disarm multiple partitions at the same time from a keychain touchpad:

Notes on Arming/Disarming Multiple Partitions from Keychain Touchpads
A partition cannot be armed or disarmed if it is being controlled by another source at that
time. For example, if you press the Lock button attempting to arm Partitions 1 and 2, a
Partition 2 touchpad in use at that same time prevents arming.
When arming multiple partitions, any conditions that prevent arming (open, trouble, active
alarm, etc.) are identified on system touchpad displays in the affected partition, while other
touchpad displays show PROTEST. The normal protest/auto force arm sequence follows, or
you can press * on a system touchpad to cancel the arming request. Pressing the Lock
button again during the protest condition bypasses any open sensors in the associated parti-
tions and arms those partitions.
When disarming multiple partitions and alarms are active in one or more of the associated
partitions:
a). Protest beeps sound for five minutes in all partitions being disarmed;
b). Partitions in alarm where sirens have timed out sound protest beeps for five minutes;
c). Partitions in alarm with active sirens continue sounding the alarm.
Warning!
Anytime alarms are active, the premises may not be safe to enter. Proceed as follows:
1.) Leave and call for help from a safe location and wait for authorities to arrive.
2.) When it is determined safe to enter the premises, go to a system touchpad and check
the system status to determine the alarm source. Disarm and alarm memory is displayed
for all associated partitions.
3). Press the Unlock button a second time (within the five minute protest period) to dis-
arm all associated partitions and cancel all alarms, then go to a system touchpad and
check alarm memory to determine the alarm source.
Macro Keys Your system may include touchpads with macro keys that allow one-touch operation. These are
four buttons located at the bottom of the touchpad. From the factory these buttons are labeled and
work as follows:
CHIME—press once to turn chime on, press again to turn chime off.
STAY—press once to arm to Level 2—STAY.
