Brinks Keypad 3
¾ Programming
The Keypad is used only with the alarm monitoring service provided by Brinks Home Security. An InGrid Home
Protection System monitored by Brinks requires special programming that sets many parameters to be compatible
with the Brinks central monitoring station. These parameters may only be loaded by a Brinks installer using an
InGrid Programmer.
OPERATING THE SYSTEM
¾ User Codes
When the system is installed, you select a code number to turn the system on and off. This is your master user code,
and it may be three or four digits long. You can create a separate auxiliary user code for anyone who needs access to
your home. You can change or delete the auxiliary code whenever you like.
¾ Entering and Exiting
Designated Doors
The designated entry/exit doors are those doors that you must use to enter and leave your home while the system is
on. These doors may be equipped with the wireless door Sensors. If you use a different door to enter your home, an
alarm may sound.
Entry Delay
When you enter your home while the security system is on, the Keypad beeps. This beeping reminds you to turn the
system off. You must enter your user code before the beeping stops. In most systems, the entry delay is 40 seconds.
If you do not enter your code before the delay ends, an alarm is triggered.
Exit Delay
When you turn the system on in normal mode, you must exit the building and close the door before the exit delay
ends. For most systems, the exit delay is 80 seconds. That number may vary, however, if local agency or regulator
restrictions apply. Once that delay has ended, you will trigger an alarm if you open a protected door or window, or
move past a motion detector.
¾ Turning the System On
The Four “On” Modes
You can arm the Brink’s Home Security system in four different ways:
1) Normal Mode
2) Motion Off
3) Motions Off With Delay Doors Instant
4) Delay Doors Instant
Turning the System On in Normal Mode
1) Close all of the doors and windows and make sure that the message window displays READY.
2) Press the ON key. The ON light begins to blink, telling you that the system is on and that the exit delay has
begun. The Keypad displays the number of seconds left in the exit delay.
3) Exit promptly. You must leave the building before the delay ends. The standard delay is 80 seconds. If the ON
light stops blinking and is steadily lit, the exit delay has ended. If you open a door now, you will cause an alarm.
Turn the system off by entering your user code, then start over.
Turning the System On with Motions Turned Off Mode
1) Close all of the doors and windows and make sure that the message window displays READY.
2) Press the ON key.
3) Press the MOTION OFF key. (You must press the MOTION OFF key no more than 20 seconds after you press
the ON key.) The ON light blinks. The Keypad displays ON, MOTION OFF.
