System Overview (cont’d)
Self-Help Feature
Abbreviated user's instructions are built into the system that can be easily viewed on
the alpha keypad's message display screen. This feature will prove particularly useful
if this manual is not conveniently accessible when you need to perform a system
procedure with which you are not familiar.
To view the abbreviated instructions:
Simply press and hold down the function key of interest until the description starts to
appear (about 5 seconds) and then release it. The system must be “READY TO ARM”
to perform this function.
Refer to the FUNCTIONS OF THE KEYPAD section for descriptions of each key
function.
Phone Access & Voice Response Capability
Your system may include a 4286 VIP module that will permit you to access the system
via a Touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. The phone access
feature will enable you to do the following:
Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the status of the
security system.
Arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands via the
telephone, with voice confirmation provided after each command entry.
Control 4204 relay devices and lights and appliances through the #70 Manual
Relay Activation mode.
Complete information regarding the use of this feature is provided in a separate
manual entitled PHONE ACCESS USER GUIDE, which accompanies the 4286 VIP
module.
