SYSTEM OVERVIEW Burglaty GeneraI Congratulations on your ownership of an Ademco 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. Ademco is the world’s largest manufacturer of security systems and millions of premises are protected by Ademco systems. Basically, this system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW Fire Protection The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the F/RE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from your house. Alarms when an alarm occurs,both the console and external sounders will sound, and a message at the console will identify the zone(s) causing the alarm.
ABOUT THE CONSOLES General Console Your consoles allow you to control all system functions. The consoles feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of all occurrences. The consoles feature a built-in sounder which emits alarm sounds during alarm conditions and produces warning tones during entry (and exit, if soprogrammable) delay periods.

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 disarming 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.
SECUR1l’Y CODES To Assign, Change, or Delete User Codes 1. Enter your Master code and press the CODE key, 2. Enter single-digit User Number for whom a code is to be assigned, changed, or deleted. 3. If assigning or changing a user’s code, enter the desired 4-digit code for use by that User Number. The console will beep once. /f deleting a user’s code, perform steps 1 and 2 and then stop. In a few moments the console will beep once, indicating that the existing code has been deleted.
ENTRY/EXIT General DELAYS Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. When you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the entry/exit door without setting off an alarm. Entry delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter through the entry/exit door. The system must be disarmed, however, before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur.
CHECKING FOR OPEN ZONES Using the ❑ READY Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows and other protection zones must be closed or bypassed (see 13YPASS//VG PROTECT/ON ZONES section), otherwise the console will display a “Not Ready” message, and if your console has a READY indicator light, it will not be lit.. The READY (~) key can be used to display all faulted zones, making it easier for you to secure any open zone.
BYPASSENG PROTECTION Using the 6 BYPASS Key ❑ ZONES This key is used when you want to arm your system with one or more zones intentionally unprotected. The system must be disarmed first. 1. Enter your security code and press the BYPASS key. 2. Enter zone number(s) for the zone(s) to be bypassed (e.g., 06, 10, 13, etc.). Single digit zone numbers must be preceded by a zero (e.g. 05, 06). 3. When finished, the console will momentarily display a “Bypass” message for each bypassed zone number.
BYPASSING PROTECTION Quick Bypass ZONES If your system supports “Quick Bypass”, it allows you to easily bypass all open (faulted) zones without having to enter zone numbers individually. This feature is useful if, for example, you routinely leave certain windows open when arming at night. To use this feature, enter your security code, press the BYPASS key, then stop. In a few moments, all open zones will be displayed along with a “Bypass” message.
ARMING PERIMETER WITH Using the 3 STAY Key El ENTRY DELAY ONLY ON Use this key when you are staying inside, but expect someone to use an entry/exit door later. 1. Enter ybur security code and press the STAY key. 2. The console beeps three times and displays the armed message. The red ARMED indicator lights. 3. The system arms. An alarm sounds immediately if a protected perimeter window or non-entry/exit door is then opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the premises.
ARMING PERIMETER WITH Using the 7 INSTANT Key ❑ ENTRY DELAY ONLY OFF Use this key when you are staying inside and do not expect anyone to use an entry/exit door. 1. Enter your security code and press the INSTANT key. 2. The console beeps three times and displays the armed message. The red ARMED indicator lights. 3, The system arms.

The console beeps twice and displays the armed message, indicator The red ARMED lights. 3. You may leave through an entrviexit door during the exit delay period without causing an ala~m.
ARMING ALL PROTECTION WITH ENTRY DELAY OFF Using the 4 MAXIMUM Key ❑ Use this key when the premises will be vacant for extended periods of time such as vacations, etc., or when retiring for the night and no one will be moving through protected interior areas. 1. Enter your security code and press the MAXIMUM key. 2. The console beeps twice and displays the armed message. The red ARMED indicator lights. 3. You may leave through an entry/exit door during— the exit delay period without causing an ala~m.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM AND SILENCING ALARMS Using n1 OFF the Key The OFF key is used to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. To Disarm the System Enter your securitv code and Dress the OFF kev. The “Ready” message will be displayed, and the console will emit a single tone to confirm that the system is disarmed. To Silence a Burglary Alarm SEE IMPORTANT NOTE AT LEFT! Enter your security code and mess the OFF kev to silence the alarm (or warning tones of a Memory of Alarm).
EXUT ALARMS Exit Alarm Warning Displays and Sounds Your system may support and have been programmed for this feature. When arming, if an exit or interior zone contains a fault during closing at the time the exjt cfe/ay ends, the alarm sounder and console sound continuously to alert you that an unwanted alarm can be prevented if you take action: If you disarm the system during the entry delay period that wili immediately Mow, the sound stops.
PANIC KEYS Using Panic Keys (for manually activating silent and/or audible alarms) ● If connectedto central station. Your system may have been programmed to use special keys or combinations of keys to manually activate emergency (panic) functions. The functions that might be programmed are: Silent Emergency, Audible Emergency, Personal Emergency, and Fire. A silent emergency sends a silent alarm signal to the central station’, but there is no audible alarm or visual display.

FIRE ALARM SYSTEM IF INSTALLED General Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, for continuous protection. In the event of an emergency, the strategically located smoke and heat detectors will automatically send signals to your system, triggering a loud, interrupted sound from the Console. An interrupted sound will also be produced by optional exterior sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your Console and remain on until you silence the alarm.
