3. SECURITY SYSTEM
OPERATION
DISARMING THE SECURITY SYSTEM and
SILENCING ALARMS
Before going any further, you
should know how to turn your alarm
system OFF. Turning the system OFF
disarms the burglar alarm, resets
the fire and emergency alarms and
silences all sirens and sounders.
Go to your console now and look
at the keypad. You will note that
there is a border around four keys
with the word SECURITY at the top.
The bottom key in this group is
OFF. This key will be referred to
as the SECURITY-OFF key.
Press the SECURITY-OFF key.
Now press the four digits of your
MASTER CODE on the number keys.
That’s all there is to it.
Watch the display. The top line
will read “DISARM SYSTEM: OFF:” The
bottom line will read “CODE *BY-
PASS #RESTORE”, indicating that
your options are to enter your code
number, or to bypass or restore
zones. Do not be concerned with
Bypass and Restore for now. For
each digit that you press, an X
will appear indicating that the key
has been pressed.
After the fourth digit of your
code is pressed, the console will
beep once to indicate that you have
correctly disarmed the system, and
the GREEN indicator on the SECU-
RITY-OFF key will light.
If an incorrect code is entered,
the words INVALID CODE will appear
on the display and the console will
beep three times.
In the event that you make a
mistake, press the SECURITY-OFF key
again, then enter your master code
again.
Practice disarming your system
until you are comfortable with this
procedure. Do it at least 4 times.
NOTES:
1. If you accidentally press the
HOME-CONTROL-OFF key (the bottom
key in the HOME CONTROL group)
instead of the SECURITY-OFF key,
you can still turn off the alarm
by entering your code.
2. If the alarm has been acti-
vated, the keys in the PROGRAM-
MING group are locked out. You
must silence the alarm using the
SECURITY-OFF, HOME, ASLEEP or
AWAY keys.
TURNING THE SECURITY SYSTEM ON
Now that you know how to turn it
off, here’s how to turn the secu-
rity system ON. There are three
available modes for the security
system, HOME, ASLEEP and AWAY.
