This manual is a step-by-step guide that will aquaint you with the system’s features and benefll. It defines the

components and their funotions, describes their operation, and instructs you wfth normal and emergency prooedures.

Keep this manual in a convenient place so that you can refer to ft as necessary.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

General Congratulations on your ownership of a First Alert Professionat Security

System. You’ve made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the

latest in security protection technology today, including miCrOCOmpUter

technology to monitor all system status,

Basically, this system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire

and emergency. Your system may consist of at least one keypad which

provides full control of system operation, plus various devices such as

door and window sensors and motion detectors. It may also include a

selected number of smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide

early warning in case of fire. Your system may also have been

programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the

phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.

Keypads

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions and feature a

telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that

shows the nature and location of all occurrences and a built-in sounder

which sounds during alarms and troubles.

For additional information, see the following section: ABOUT THE

KEYPADS.

Zones

Your system’s sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones”.

For example, the sensing device on your Entry/Exit door may have been

assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom

to zone 02, and so on. These zone numbers will appear on the display

when an alarm or trouble condiion occurs.

(continued)

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Alarms When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound,

and a message at the keypad will identify the zone(s) causing the alarm. In

addition, if your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an

alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, you simply disarm

the system.

Fire Protection

The fire protection portion of your security system (ii.used) is always on

and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE

ALARM SYSTEM section for important information concerning fire .pro-

tection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from your

premises.

Burglary Protection

The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned on or

“armed” before it will sense burglary alarm conditions and sound an alarm.

Your system can be armed in one of four modes: STAY, AWAY, INSTANT

and MAXIMUM. Refer to the ARM/h/G THE SYSTEM sections for

instructions in using these modes of operation.

Your system also provides a CHIME mode for alerting you to the opening

and closing of doors and windows while the system is disarmed.

Memory Of Alann

When an alarm or trouble condition occurs, the keypad displays the

number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type

of alarm or trouble (ex. FIRE, ALARM, CHECK). The display remains until it

is cleared by entering the OFF sequence (security code +

OFF

key) twice.

Pager Notification

If you have chosen to be notified of alarms or other system conditions by

pager, the following codes will be sent to your pager by the control:

1811=Trouble 191l=Alarrn

a 1001 =Open 1002=Close

Keypad Types

Keypad Styles

dures in this man-

ual apply equally to

all keypad types

and sty/es.

ABOUT THE KEYPADS

All commands and procedures described herein are illustrated for Fixed-

Word Display keypads, however, an Alpha Display keypad (with a e-line

LCD display for more detailed protection point identification and system

status, but with similar commands and procedures) is available and might

have been used instead.

Faed-Word keypads are available in two display styfes,A and B, either of

which may have been used in your system. Although different in

appearance, both styles are functionally similar. The style B keypads

have a fliiwn door which can be removed, ifdesired.Words displayed

on all Fuced-Wordkeypads are the same, except that their location in the

displaywindow diiers slightlywith each style.

Note: Some keypads are equipped with a READY indicator in place of a

POWER rndrcator . The READY indicator is lii when the system is ready for

arming (no protection zones open). While the system is disarmed, this

indicator will go on and off as protection zones are opened and closed.

SECURITY CODES

General

At the time of installation, your installer programmed a personal four-digit

Master code, known only to you and yours. This code is used to perform

most system functions, including arming and d&arming of the system. As an

additional safety feature, temporary user codes can be assigned (see next

page) for use by those not having a need to know the Master code. Note

that the Master code remains in effect even when other user codes are

assigned.
