The Status button blinks when an active alarm exists. The
Status button is lit when an abnormal condition such as a
trouble or open sensor exists in the system.
You can clear certain status entries from the system (such
as old alarm history) by pressing Disarm after checking the
status.
Touchpads and key fobs
You can use touchpads and key fobs to control the security
system from remote locations in and near your home.
Interfacing with the system using a touchpad is similar to
using the panel. Refer to the Simon XT TableTop User
Manual and the touchpad or key fob documentation for
details.

Trouble beeps
Your security system is able to automatically test itself for:
• Power failures
• Low batteries
• Nonworking sensors
• Communication trouble with the central monitoring
station
When your system detects one of the problems above, six
rapid beeps sound every minute until the trouble condition
is corrected. To stop the trouble beeps, press Status or arm
and then disarm the system while the trouble condition
exists. Trouble beeps will resume 4 hours later unless the
trouble condition is corrected. Refer to your Simon XT
TableTop User Manual for details.
