System Overview (cont’d)
Burglary Protection
The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned on or "armed"
before it will sense burglary alarm conditions. Your system provides four
modes of burglary protection: STAY, AWAY, INSTANT and MAXIMUM, and
even allows you to BYPASS selected zones of protection while leaving the
rest of the system armed. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for
alerting users to the opening and closing of doors and windows while the
system is disarmed. Refer to the other sections of this manual for procedures
for using these features.
The following table lists the four different arming modes and the results of
each.

The system provides three different STAY and INSTANT arming modes. See
ARMING IN THE STAY MODES and ARMING IN THE INSTANT MODES
sections for details on these modes.
Carbon Monoxide Protection
Carbon monoxide (CO) protection is available with your system using the
5800CO Carbon Monoxide Detector. The 5800CO is a 3V battery powered
wireless Carbon Monoxide Detector used with wireless alarm systems that
support 5800 series devices. Carbon monoxide gas is a highly poisonous gas
which is released when fuels are burned. It is invisible, has no smell and is
therefore impossible to detect with the human senses. We strongly suggest
installing Carbon monoxide protection with your system.
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound,
and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. If your system is
connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will also be sent.
To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.
