System Programming
To Disarm The System:
1
2
Enter your access code. The keypad will beep
each time you press a number.
Press OFF. The keypad will beep, the Arm/
Alarm light will flash for a short time, and the
display will show OFF, beneath the date. OFF is
another level of protection for your system. All
Fire, Tamper, Environmental, Medical, Emer-
gency, Police, and others that your dealer has
programmed as 24-hour alarms, will remain
active.
To Generate An Instant Police Alarm:
Simultaneously, press and hold the two buttons
marked POLICE (see figure), until the system
beeps.
To Generate An Instant Emergency Alarm:
Simultaneously, press and hold the two buttons
marked EMERGENCY, until the system beeps.
This will sound an instant alarm and send a
message to your monitoring service that an emer-
gency situation exists. The monitoring service will
react according to instructions from you or your
dealer. For example, the monitoring service can
be instructed to call an ambulance and a particular
doctor. Check the list on page 1 to see how your
monitoring service will react when this alarm is
sounded.
NOTE: Your dealer can disarm the Police and
Emergency buttons, if you do not want them to
be active.
To Generate an Ambush Alarm:
The Ambush Feature is designed to protect you in
the event that you must unwillingly cancel an
intrusion alarm or disarm the system. Should an
intruder force you to cancel an alarm or disarm the
system, enter your access code, but add one to the
first digit. For example, if your code is l-2-3-4,
enter 2-2-3-4.
After you press OFF, any audible alarm will imme-
diately go silent and the system will respond
normally, but it will continue to dial your monitoring
service and report a special Ambush Alarm.
During this period, all other system functions, such
as changing Levels of Protection, will operate
normally.
This will sound an instant alarm and send a signal
to your monitoring service to send the police.
