Security Codes

At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal four-digit
security code, known only to you. You must enter the security code
when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other
system functions. As an additional safety feature, other users who do
not need to know your code can be assigned different security codes.
Refer to the Security Codes section for procedures on adding security
codes to the system.

Fire Protection

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always
active and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to
the Fire Alarm System section for important information concerning
fire protection, smoke detectors, and planning emergency exit routes
from the premises.

Alarms

When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will
sound, and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. If
your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm
message will also be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm
the system.
