Write down your outside meeting place. Family Rehearsal Rehearse each of the following activities: 1. Everyone in his room with the doors closed. 2.
SYSTEM TROUBLE ERROR CODES Your Freedom Alarm System is constantly monitoring its own components, as well as all critical services, such as AC power and the telephone line, to insure that it is always ready to provide the protection for which it was designed. When a system trouble occurs, the Garage Touchpad will caution you with a Trouble TBL light and a beeping sounder. If you cannot immediately fix the trouble, the system can still be used.
