Simon XT Talking Touch Screen Quick Operation Guide
Doors. Depicts monitored door status (most typically
external doors). A green check indicates all monitored
doors are closed. A red exclamation point indicates one
or more doors are open.
Windows. Depicts monitored window status. A green
check indicates all monitored windows are closed. A red
exclamation point indicates one or more windows are
open.
Motion. Depicts motion detected by the motion sensors
in your home. A green check indicates no recent motion
detected. A red exclamation point indicates motion was
detected within the last 10 minutes. A typical use for this
feature would be to have a touch screen in the garage to
see if movement is detected in the home before you
enter the home.
Property. Depicts other changes to protected property in
your system. For example activation of a water sensor,
freeze sensor, or the movement of protected items. A
green check indicates no change since the last time you
visited (for movement of a protected item) and all sensors
are closed (water or freeze sensors). A red exclamation
point indicates either a sensor is tripped or there is
unacknowledged activity.

with a slash through it) will appear over the lock.
Arming errors
