Touchpads and key fobs
You can use touchpads and key fobs to control the security
system from remote locations in and near your home. Interfacing
with the system using a touchpad is similar to using the panel.
Status beeps
The panel sounds status beeps to alert you to various system
events and conditions as shown in Table 4 below.

Alarm sirens
Exterior and interior sirens make three different alarm sounds on
the premises, each indicating a different type of alarm. Sirens are
programmed by the installer to time out and stop sounding after a
specified time.
Table 5 below describes the siren sounds used by the security
system.
Table 5: Siren sounds

Exterior siren Temporal 3 Steady
Note: Temporal 3 refers to a continuous pattern of three siren
pulses, then off for 1.5 seconds, three siren pulses, then off for
1.5 seconds.
Trouble beeps
Your security system is able to automatically test itself for:
• Power failures
• Low batteries
• Sensor supervision
• Communication trouble with the central monitoring station
When your system detects one of the problems above, six rapid
beeps sound every minute until the trouble condition is corrected.
To stop the trouble beeps, enter the Status & Settings screen and
press Listen. Trouble beeps will resume 4 hours later unless the
trouble condition is corrected.
Programming
Your Simon XTi security system allows you to program certain
user options, such as access codes.
To enter programming mode:
1. From the Status & Settings screen, scroll down to the
Programming option and press Enter.
2. Enter the access code and press OK.
Access codes
To add/edit access codes:
1. From the Programming screen, press ACCESS CODES.
2. To add or edit an access code, press the white field next to

3. Enter the new/edited code on the numbered keypad and
press SAVE.
4. Press CLOSE repeatedly to exit menus.
Chimes
Use the chime feature to signal when a protected door is opened
while the system is disarmed. The panel chimes when a chime
sensor is tripped, if the chime mode is enabled. This feature allows
you to be notified when family members are going in and out of
your home. The chime feature is turned on or off in the Status &
Settings screen.
Note: If there are no chime sensors in your system, you will not be
able to enable the chime feature.
Your installer may have programmed the system to speak the
sensor name or make a custom chime sound when a chime
sensor is tripped. The chime sound, if programmed, will be played
in place of the standard chime beeps.
