Master Code
The 4-digit Master Code is used to arm and disarm the security system, to program additional Access
Codes and to change other system features. The Master Code will be supplied to you by your installer. All
keypad entries are made by pressing one key at a time.
Arming the System
Check the following items before arming the system:
Bypassed Zones
If the “System” light is ON, ensure that zones are intentionally bypassed before arming the system (See
Zone Bypassing section).
Trouble Indications
The “System” light is also used to warn of trouble conditions in the system. If the “System” light is ON,
check to see what the trouble condition is and call for service. (See Viewing Trouble Conditions section).
Ready Light
If the “Ready” light is NOT ON, check to see that all doors and windows are closed and that motion is
stopped in areas covered by motion detectors. The system cannot be armed unless the “Ready” light
is ON, indicating that all zones are closed.
NOTE: The system may be armed with a zone bypassed or a trouble present but your security
protection will be reduced.
To Arm The System
Enter your 4-digit Access Code. As each digit is entered, the keypad sounder will beep. If the correct
Access Code is entered, the keypad sounder will beep quickly and the “Armed” light will come ON.
If the Access Code was entered incorrectly or the “Ready” light comes ON, the keypad buzzer will sound
steadily for 2 seconds. If this occurs, press the [#] key and re-enter your Access Code.
When the correct Access Code is entered and the “Armed” light comes ON, exit the premises through
the door indicated by your installer as the Exit-Entry door. At the end of the exit delay period, all lights,
except the “Armed” light, will go out and the system will be armed. The exit time delay can be changed
by your installer.
Auto-Bypass Option - Home-Away Arming
This feature, if selected by your installer, will allow you to arm your system with any Access Code and
the system will automatically bypass the interior zones. When activated, the “System” light will come on.
If you exit within the allowed exit time, the system will automatically activate the interior zones and the
“System” light will go out. This feature is designed to save the customer from having to manually bypass
interior zones each time they wish to arm the system and remain at home.
In residential applications where the system has been armed and the interior zones are automatically
bypassed, the interior zones can be reactivated from a keypad that is outside the interior zone's
protection area. To reactivate the interior zones, press [
∗
] then [1] and the “System” light will go out.
Entry Delay Off Arming
If you wish to arm your system and eliminate the entry delay, enter [
∗
][9] before your Access Code. The
“Armed” light will flash as a reminder that the system is armed and has no entry delay. An entry through
any zone programmed as a delay zone will create an instant alarm.
To arm without entry delay, press [
∗
][9][Access Code]
If An Alarm Sounds
If an intrusion alarm sounds (continuous siren tone), the alarm may not be silenced by entering your Access
Code. If the alarm was unintentional, call local authorities immediately to avoid an unnecessary response.
You can determine the source of the alarm by following the instructions in the Alarm Viewing section of
this manual. Once the source of the alarm has been corrected, the system can be restored to its original
armed state.
Zone Bypassing
Use Zone Bypassing when access is needed to part of the protected area while the system is armed.
Bypassed zones will not cause an alarm. Zones that are temporarily out of service due to damaged
wiring or contacts may be bypassed to allow system arming (partial protection) until repairs can be made.
Zones cannot be bypassed after the system is armed.
To bypass zones:
Enter [
∗
][1][Zone number(s) to be bypassed]
Enter zone number(s) as single digits (1-4).
As each zone is bypassed, the Zone Light will come ON. If a zone is bypassed in error, press that zone
number again and the Zone Light will go OFF indicating that the zone is not bypassed.
Press [#] to return to “Ready”.
To recall last group of zones bypassed:
Enter [
∗
][1][9]
Zone lights for the last group of zones bypassed will come ON to show which zones are bypassed. If you
wish to add or delete a zone from the group, press [#] to exit then follow the instructions for zone
bypassing as described above.
Press [#] to return to “Ready”.
For security reasons, your installer may prevent the bypass command from working on certain zones.
The “System” light is ON as long as ONE or more zones are bypassed. Do not unintentionally arm the
system with zones bypassed. Zone bypasses are automatically cancelled each time the system is
disarmed and must be re-applied before the next arming.
Viewing Trouble Conditions
The PC1150 continuously monitors a number of possible trouble conditions. If one of these trouble
conditions occur, the keypad will beep twice every 10 seconds and the keypad “System” indicator will
light. Pressing any key on the keypad will silence the sounder but the “System” light will remain ON until
the trouble condition is cleared. If you cannot determine the cause of the trouble condition, contact your
installer for assistance.
Press [
∗
][2] to display the type of trouble. A Zone Light will come on to indicate which type of trouble
exists. Press [#] to return to “Ready”.
