ALARM CANCELLED An Alarm signal just sent to the central station was cancelled because a user code was entered after the alarm was sent. Also, an Alarm Cancel signal is sent to the Central Station. ALARM VERIFIED A valid burglar alarm has occurred and has been manually verified by the user. The alarm system also transmits a VERIFY message to the Central Station. ENTER CODE The system requires you to enter a personal user code.
Disarming This means turning off one or more areas of the system. When disarmed, the system does NOT sound alarms or send alarm reports to a central station when a burglary zone faults. Zone A zone refers to one or more protected openings or protection devices assigned the same zone number. Each door or window, motion detector, smoke detector, or other device has a zone number and a name. Often, similar devices in the same general area share the same zone.
Armed Status With Armed Status, the keypad displays the current armed condition of areas within your security system. The keypad displays HOME SYSTEM ON When The perimeter areas is armed in a Home/ Away system. PERIMETER ON The perimeter is armed in an All/ Perimeter system. ALL SYSTEM ON All areas are on. SLEEP SYSTEM ON The perimeter and interior areas are on but the bedroom area is off.
Arming and Disarming How Your System Operates Your system has been programmed to operate in one of three modes: Area, All/Perimeter or Home/Sleep/Away. • Area — Your burglary protection is divided into up to six areas. Each area can have a custom name, be turned on or off independently of other areas, and limit access to only those users with proper authority. • All/Perimeter — Your burglary protection is divided into two areas: Interior and Perimeter.
Exit Delay: The keypad then displays the exit delay time as it counts down. If the entire system has been armed, your system beeps the exit delay tone at eight-second intervals until the last 10 seconds when the keypad beeps at three‑second intervals. After exiting the building, if you re-enter during the countdown the exit countdown restarts, allowing additional time to then disarm or again exit the building during the countdown. This restart can occur only one time.
