your security system, is causing an accidental alarm. Most

Canceling Accidental Alarms

time has passed, you must call the central monitoring sta-
tion to cancel the alarm.
You have ___ seconds to cancel an accidental alarm.
To cancel an accidental alarm, simply enter your master
access code.
Guidelines for Preventing Accidental
Alarms
The following guidelines will go a long way toward pre-
venting accidental alarms.
Close doors and widows before you leave your house.
Gather your belongings, so you can exit immediately
after arming the system.
Always enter and exit within the programmed delay
times.
Make sure you leave through a door that has a delay
time set for it.
Disarm your system immediately upon returning
home.
Be aware of the devices in your security system and
learn how each one operates.
If you have pets, ask your installer if you need pet
lenses in your motion detectors.
Check the location of your smoke detectors. Smoke
detectors near bathrooms and kitchens can be tripped
by steam and smoke from cooking.
Take note of system beeps, voice announcements and
indicator lights which indicate the current system sta-
tus.

How to Use an Off-Site Phone

You may use an off-site phone to arm/disarm your panel,
turn lights on and off, check system status, or conduct an
audio session (ask your installer if you have this feature).

How to gain access to the Control Panel:

1. Call the panel and let the phone ring twice then hang
up.
2. Wait at least 10 seconds and call the panel again. You
may wait up to 40 seconds before calling again.
3. The panel should answer on the first ring. You won't
hear any prompt when the system answers.
4. Press the * button on your telephone and you will hear
system activated.
At this point you may perform the actions listed in the fol-
lowing table of phone commands. CODE refers to the
master and access codes programmed into your system.
