If you make a mistake while programming, the Control Panel emits three short
beeps. That means the system has cleared and you must start the programming
sequence from the beginning. If you get lost in the programming sequence or
have made a mistake and want to start over again, press the [ * ] on the key pad
of the Control Panel until you hear three short beeps. This will clear the system,
then you can start again from the beginning. If no button is pressed for eight
seconds while in the middle of a programming sequence, the system will also
clear itself.

#1-4

sensor is activated, after the 30 seconds the alarm
will sound, DELAY ENTRY MODE.

Both green and red lights

Lights will flash for 45 seconds. All remote sensors pro-

flashing

grammed to that zone will not communicate with the
Control Panel for those 45 seconds, which gives you
time to exit the premises before the system is armed.

Now that the system is installed and the sensors are communicating with the
Control Panel, it is time to learn how to do basic programming of your security
system. More advanced features are explained further in the manual, (see
Advanced Programming).

You can arm and disarm the system by using either the keypad on the Control
Panel or the 4 button keychain transmitter or keypad transmitter KP-433 (option).

TO ARM THE SYSTEM USING THE KEYPAD ON THE CONTROL PANEL

All programming sequences begin with the Master Personal Identification Number
(MPIN).
There is only one MPIN which has been factory set at 0 0 0. You can also
assign up to 3 different Secondary Personal Identification Numbers (SPIN). For
more information on how to change your MPIN and how to add an SPIN, (see
PASSWORDS on page 16, 17).

We have preprogrammed 6 different arm sequences to meet different circumstances.
For example, if you would like the system activated while you are in the premises,
the motion sensor will be turned off so you have the freedom to move about with-
out setting off the alarm. You can personalize any of these preprogrammed arm
sequences, (see Advanced Programming).

Arming sequences

Option 1: Away Sequence - To arm your system when you are the last person
leaving the premises.

1. Press the current MPIN [ 0 0 0 ].

2. Press [ B ].

3. Press [ C ].

You hear a long beep. The arm light and the red lights in zones 3 and 4 go on.
Both the green and red lights flash in zone 1 for 45 seconds which gives you 45
seconds to leave the premises before the system is activated. After 45 seconds,
both the green and red lights in zone 1 and 2 remain on. Upon re-entering the
premises through zone 1, or walking in the monitored area of the motion sensor,
zone 2, you have 30 seconds till the alarm sounds. The system gives you 30
seconds from the time you enter the premises, for example opening the front door,
to get to the Control Panel to deactivate the system. Zones 3 or 4 remain instant.
If any sensor in zone 3 and 4 are activated, the alarm sounds instantly.

Option 2: Home Sequence - To arm your system when someone remains in the
premises.

1. Press the current MPIN [ 0 0 0 ].

2. Press [ C ].
