System Status Messages
Your keypad's display gives you information about the status of
your system. If there is more than one condition to report, your
keypad displays each message in turn.
Below is a list of the types of messages you may see. On your
display, the # symbol is replaced with the number of the zone, or
zones, in question. For more information about many of these
messages, see Section 6.
ALARM (ZN#) A zone (ZN) is, or recently has been, in alarm.
ARMED-HOM The system is armed using home-arming.
ARMED-INS The system is armed using instant home-arming.
BYPASSED (ZN#) A zone has been bypassed, meaning the zone is no
longer protected.
FAULTED (ZN#) The sensor in the zone has detected a condition
which, if the system were armed, would cause an
alarm. (For example, a door may be ajar.)
READY The system is ready to be armed.
NOT READY The system is not ready to be armed because a zone
is faulted.
PRESS SERVICE Your system may need to be repaired.
TAMPER (ZN#) A sensor may have been vandalized.
TROUBLE (ZN#) A sensor may not be functioning properly.
No system status messages are displayed while you arm the sys-
tem, or make other changes, like assign user codes.
