Alarm Conditions

Fire Alarms

If smoke and fire sensors are a part of your system, they will be active 24 hours a day

regardless of the arming level. For monitored systems, the control panel calls the monitor-

ing station for proper dispatch.

Resetting Hardwired Smoke Detectors (ST8 only):

After a hardwired smoke detector has been in alarm, it requires that it be reset using the

following procedure:

Press Next + Next + <Reset> + Enter PIN + <Done>

Police Alarms

If door/window sensors, motion sensor, and glass break detectors are a part of your sys-

tem, they will be active when the system is armed using the Arm All method. Exterior

sensors (e.g., exterior doors/windows) will be active using the Arm Perimeter method, but

interior sensors (e.g., motion detectors) will not be active in this level. In the event of a

police alarm, the sirens and LCD keypad will respond as detailed in Table 3 and the alarm

will be reported to the monitoring station if your system is monitored

Activating a Panic Alarm from an LCD Keypad

Your LCD keypad may include two emergency keys that can activate Fire or Police panic

alarms. A panic alarm can be activated at any time, regardless of the current arming level.

For monitored systems, the control panel calls the monitoring station for proper dispatch.

Fire Panic Alarm

To activate a Fire panic alarm, press and hold the Fire button for two seconds.

Police Panic Alarm

To activate a Police panic alarm, press and hold the Police button for two seconds.

Activating Alarms from your Wireless Keyfob

In addition to arming and disarming the system, your wireless keyfob can be used to acti-

vate a Police alarm.

To activate a Police panic alarm from a wireless keyfob:

Press and hold the Arm All and Arm Perimeter buttons simultaneously for three seconds.

Duress Alarm

A Duress alarm is generated when you use the Duress PIN (provided by the installer) to

disarm the system. When used, the system will disarm normally and will silently notify

the monitoring station of a duress situation. Talk to your security service provider about

this option.

To activate a Duress Alarm:

Enter the four-digit duress PIN. Your system appears to disarm normally. However, a

silent signal is sent to your monitoring station that you are in danger.

Siren Time-out

Sirens will “time-out” (shut down) after sounding for a certain length of time. The default

siren time-out is 10 minutes. This means that after an alarm has been activated, the sirens

will stop emitting sound after 10 minutes. The alarm is still active after the sirens time-out

and will remain active until you disarm the system.
