DISARMING

AND SILENCING ALARMS

Using the

OFF Key

The OFF key is used to disarm the system and to silence alarm

and trouble sounds. See "SUMMARY OF AUDIBLE

NOTIFICATION" section for information which will help you to

distinguish between FIRE and BURGLARY alarm sounds.

IMPORTANT: If you return and the main burglary sounder is on,

DO NOT enter the premises, but call the police from a nearby

safe location. If you return after an alarm has occurred and the

main sounder has shut itself off, the keypad will beep rapidly

upon entering, indicating that an alarm has occurred during your

absence. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE

from a nearby safe location.

To disarm the system and silence burglary or fire alarms:

OFF

1. Enter your security code and press 1 .

DISARMED

READY TO ARM

2. The Ready message will be displayed (if no alarms have

occurred while armed) and the keypad will beep once to

confirm that the system is disarmed.

Memory of Alarm The keypad displays the zone number and type of alarm for any

zone that has an alarm condition. These messages will remain

displayed until cleared by a user. If an alarm has occurred, note

the zone number displayed on the keypad and repeat step 1

above to clear the "Memory of Alarm" and restore the Ready

message display. If the Ready message will not display, go to

the displayed zone and remedy the fault (close windows, etc.). If

the fault cannot be remedied, notify the alarm agency.

If the system was armed when the alarm occurred, repeat step 1

twice: once to disarm the system, a second time to clear the

display.
