Receiving the Emergency Call
If you are on the list as one of the recipients of the emergency call, you should read
the following instructions carefully. You should also notify all the persons you will
be calling so they know how to react when they receive the emergency call.
The control panel will call you when there are emergencies such as break-ins,
smoke, fire events, or someone at home needs assistance.
1. When the phone rings at the calling location, the person who answers the
phone will hear a message related to the emergency events, such as
“System Panic”, or “Zone 1 Sensor 1 Triggered” etc. This message may be
repeated several times depending on how it was programmed.
2. After the message has been repeated for
a certain number of times, the control panel
will ask for a valid password, you will hear
“Enter Password”.
3. Enter the 4-digit password to have access
to the control panel. If a valid password is
accepted, you will hear “Password Accepted”,
otherwise, you will hear “Password Failure”.
4. After entering the correct password, you
can follow the “Phone Command” instruc-
tions to perform the required tasks, such
as disarm, turn on / off devices or check the
system status etc. For further information
of how to control the system remotely,
please refer to the next section, "Remote
Operation by Telephone".

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING
Alert Zone (Bypass Zone)
As explained earlier, the control panel can operate in 2 different modes, 1) Alert
Mode, 2) Alarm Mode. In alarm mode, when a sensor is triggered, the control
panel will either give a 30 seconds entry delay, or siren will sound immediately
(with instant alarm). However, there are sensors that you do not want to trigger
the alarm when the system is armed. Such as an outdoor sensor, or any other
sensors that you only want to give you alert notification. Under such circum-
stances, zone(s) can be programed to react only when the control panel is in
alert mode, these zones will be automatically bypassed when the control panel
is in alarm mode. These zones can also be considered as "Bypass zones".
It is recommend to enable alert zone if:
- You do not consider the sensors in that zone an emergency
- Sensors in that zone are located outdoors
- When nobody is home, you do not want to know the status of the sensor(s) in
that zone
Factory Default: This feature was disabled for all zones at the factory.
