Your new security system has many sophisticated features. It has been customized
by your installer for your home or business. The master keypad, which is wired
irectly to the control center, is your link to the system. The control center is
mounted out of sight in a metal box. The master keypad and any wireless keypads or
handheld transmitters are the only things you need to control the system.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Be sure to have your installer go over the system with you until you are familiar with
, its operation and the complete procedures for testing all system components. No
ectronic product can perform better than the care and maintenance it receives. This
manual contains instructions on how you can test your alarm system. Individual test
and maintenance instructions are also provided with many of the accessory compo-
nents that make up your system. Keep those instructions with this booklet.
The manufacturer of this equipment strongly urges that you and your installing
company enter into a periodic service and maintenance agreement so that capable
service technicians can help assure that your system is operating properly.
