You can operate the self-contained security system through several different methods:
• The front panel buttons provide a means of arming and disarming the system when you enter or exit
your home. These buttons also provide a method for determining which sensors are active and
determining system status.
• A set of three fast action keys provide immediate communication with the central monitoring station to
report police, fire, or auxiliary alarms.
• The more complex operating functions are achieved using a combination of the panel buttons and a
display menu. This method is used by your installer to establish your system configuration. You can
use this method to program certain user features. See Menu navigation on page 27.
The self-contained panel (Figure 2) provides the user interface for system operation and programming system
functions. Table 3 on page 7 provides a description of the panel keys and display.
