Means
Trouble Beeps-A system problem has been detected. Your
system is still operable, but the problem should be corrected as
soon as possible (see page 14).
Fire Alarm-Either the Smoke Detector Transmitter or a transmitter
configured for fire emergency has been triggered. Your system will
sound this alarm and activate your telephone dialer. Depending on
your programming, there may be a 40-second delayed alarm from
external sirens.
Intrusion Alarm-A door or window has been opened or broken;
a motion detector has been triggered; or a tamper switch has been
activated. Your system will sound this alarm and activate your
telephone dialer, unless the keypad is set on the
40-second
delay.
Auxiliary Alarm-An auxiliary transmitter has been triggered. Your
system will sound this alarm and activate your telephone dialer.
Environmental Alarm-A sensor has been triggered by heat, cold,
moisture, etc. Your system will sound the alarm and activate your
telephone dialer. External sirens are silent.
NOTE: Your system may not
be equipped for all these
alarms. Ask your dealer
which alarms are included in
your system.
