Clearing an Alarm
If an alarm occurs while you are away, the GC3e Panel’s
Piezo Sounder will sound for a preset amount of time (as
de ned by the Burglary Bell Cutoff Time and/or the Fire Bell
Cutoff Time). Upon entering the premises, the system emits
fast, repeated beeps to warn you that an alarm was set off
while you were away.
NOTE: Consult your installer to determine how the
Burglary Bell Cutoff Time and Fire Bell Cutoff Time
is con gured on your system. The time can be
con gured to last 4 minutes, 8 minutes, 12 minutes,
16 minutes, or Unlimited (no cutoff). The default
setting for both features is four (4) minutes.
CAUTION! If the system emits fast, repeated beeps
(instead of the typical Entry Delay beeps), proceed
indoors with extreme caution. For your safety, it
is recommended that you immediately leave the
premises, go to a secure location, and then contact
your local authorities for assistance. If you have any
reason to believe an intruder is present, do NOT
enter the premises until the dwelling is deemed safe
by local authorities.
To clear an alarm:
1. At the Alarm screen (after the Burglary Bell Cutoff
Time or Fire Bell Cutoff Time expires), enter an
active user code.
Enter Your Code to Clear the Alarm
