Disarming and Silencing Alarms
Using the 1 OFF Key
The OFF key is used to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble
sounds. See "SUMMARY OF AUDIBLE NOTIFICATION" section for
information which will help you to distinguish between FIRE and
BURGLARY alarm sounds.
IMPORTANT: If you return and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT enter the
premises, but call 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
entering, indicating that an alarm has occurred during your absence. LEAVE
IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
To disarm the system and silence burglary or fire alarms:
OFF
1. Enter your security code and press 1 .
DISARMED
READY TO ARM
2. The Ready message will be displayed (if no alarms have occurred while
armed) and the keypad beeps once to confirm that the system is disarmed.
IMPORTANT:
It is not necessary to press the “OFF” key on the keypad to disarm
the system when it is in entry delay or alarm. Entering a valid user code alone causes
the system to disarm. All other times pressing the “OFF” key is needed. This is a SIA
CP-01 requirement.
If an invalid code is entered to silence an alarm condition, the keypad stops beeping
for 10-15 seconds. If a valid code is not entered during the 10-15 seconds, the keypad
resumes beeping.
Memory of Alarm
The keypad displays the zone number and type of alarm for any zone that
has an alarm condition. These messages will remain displayed until cleared
by a user. If an alarm has occurred, note the zone number displayed on the
keypad and repeat step 1 above to clear the "Memory of Alarm" and restore
the Ready message display. If the Ready message does not display, go to the
displayed zone and remedy the fault (close windows, etc.). If the fault cannot
be remedied, notify the alarm agency.
If the system was armed when the alarm occurred, repeat step 1 twice: once
to disarm the system, a second time to clear the display.
