Disarming the System

NOTE: The control will provide a long confirmation ding when it is disarmed using an RF Key Fob.
OFF
Use the key to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. See the SUMMARY
OF AUDIBLE NOTIFICATION section for information, which will help you to distinguish between fire
and burglary alarm sounds.
IMPORTANT!
If you return and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT enter the premises, but call the police from a
nearby safe location. If you return after an alarm has occurred and the main sounder has shut itself off,
the keypad will beep rapidly upon entering. This indicates that an alarm has occurred during your
absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE
from a nearby safe location.
+ OFF
To disarm the system and silence burglary alarms:
Your user code
During Entry Delay or when an Alarm Condition exists the system will be disarmed as soon as the
correct user code is entered on the keypad. Entering the OFF key is not required. The entry beeps or
alarm sound can be silenced by pressing any key however, it will restart in 10 seconds if the correct
User Code is not entered.
The READY indicator will light (if no alarms have occurred while armed) and the keypad will beep once
to confirm that the system is disarmed.
Memory of Alarm
If an alarm occurs, the keypad displays the zone number (s) that caused the alarm and the type of
alarm (e.g., "FIRE ALARM"). These messages remain displayed until cleared by a user.
To clear the display, note the zone number displayed and enter an OFF sequence (enter your security
OFF
code and press the key).
If the READY indicator is blinking, go to the displayed zone and correct the fault (close windows, etc.).
If the fault cannot be corrected, notify your alarm company.
