Access Codes
Access Codes are used to arm and disarm the system. There are six access codes available: one
Master Code and five access codes.
Only the Master Code can be used to program additional security codes and to change other system
features as well as to arm and disarm the security system. The Master Code will be supplied to you by
your installer. All keypad entries are made by pressing one key at a time.
All access codes can be programmed by following the procedure outlined in “Programming Security
Codes” on page 6.
NOTE: An access code can be a four or six digit number depending on how your installer has
programmed your system. Ask your installer for more information regarding access codes.
Arming the System
Arming from an LED Keypad:
If the Ready light is ON, the system is ready for arming. If the Ready light is OFF, 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 and the
system is in the Ready state.
Enter your access code. As each digit is entered, the keypad sounder will beep. If the access code
was entered incorrectly, the keypad buzzer will sound steadily for two seconds. If this occurs, press
the [#] key and re-enter your access code. If the correct access code is entered, the keypad sounder
will beep quickly and the Armed light will come ON. Exit the premises through the door indicated by
your installer as the Exit/Entry door.
The panel will provide an exit delay period, indicated by keypad beeps, for you to exit the premises
without causing an alarm. At the end of the exit delay period, all keypad lights, except the Armed light,
will turn OFF and the system will be armed. The exit delay time can be changed by your installer.
Arming from an LCD Keypad:
When this message appears, one or more zones are not secured. To secure the
system, close all doors and windows and cease all motion in areas covered by
motion detectors.
When this message appears, use the arrow (< >) keys to verify that the system is
clear of troubles and that no zones are bypassed unintentionally (see “Viewing
Trouble Conditions” on page 11 and “Zone Bypassing” on page 10).
If this display is showing, the system is in the Ready state and may be fully armed.
To arm the system, enter your access code.
Once the correct access code has been entered, the display will be as shown. The
panel will provide an exit delay period, also indicated by keypad beeps, for you to
exit the premises without causing an alarm. Exit through the door indicated by your
installer as the Exit/Entry door.
This message will be displayed once the exit delay expires and the system is fully
armed.
If this message appears, be aware of which zones are bypassed and why (see
“Zone Bypassing” on page 10).
NOTE: If you arm the system with a zone
bypassed or with a trouble present, your security protection is reduced.
