SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Alarms When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound, and a message
at the keypad will identify the zone(s) causing the alarm. In addition, if your system is
connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm
sounding, you simply disarm the system.
Fire Protection When an alarm or trouble condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the
zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm or trouble (ex. FIRE,
ALARM, CHECK). The display remains until it is cleared by entering the OFF sequence
(security code + OFF key) twice.

Arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands via the telephone,
