General Operation
LYNXR-2SIA False Alarm Prevention Feature
Note that in cases of alarm, the LYNXR-2SIA may disarm as soon as the security code is entered, or
you can still enter CODE + OFF. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm
message will be sent. To reduce false alarms, message reporting is delayed 30 seconds. The delay can be
reduced to 15 seconds, or increased up to 60 seconds at your option. Consult with your installer to
ensure that the correct delay has been programmed. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the
system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed indicating memory of alarm. Refer to the
DISARMING THE SYSTEM section for information about clearing the memory of alarm display.
Two-Way Voice Feature
The LYNXR-2 Series supports voice dialog between an operator at the central station and an individual
at the premises. This feature allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct a two-way
conversation with an individual(s) at the premises and allows the operator to gather information about
the nature and location of the alarm that may be helpful in responding to police or rescue departments.
If the Two-way Voice Feature has been programmed and an alarm condition is detected, the system
sends an alarm message to the central station. After acknowledgement is received, a listen in to
follow message is sent to the central station. In response to this message, the central station operator
can enter commands that allow him to initiate a 5-minute voice session. The options allow the operator
to enter the following modes:
Talk: Allows the operator to speak to individuals at the premises through the system speaker.
VOX (2-way voice): Allows the operator to hold a two-way (speak and listen) conversation with
individuals at the premises.
Listen: Allows the operator to listen to any activity at the premises through the system microphone.
If a subsequent zone is violated during a voice session, the system will terminate the session and
process the alarm. During the voice session, the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs will
alternately blink in the Talk and VOX Modes but not during Listen Mode.
