5.2.4 Alarm Cancel Window

The control panel provides a period of time in which the user can cancel the alarm transmission. The
minimum duration of this time is five minutes.
If the programmed alarm transmission delay has expired, cancelling an alarm sends a message to the
monitoring station. Upon a successful transmission of the cancellation message the keypad will beep 6
times.
NOTES:
Must be enabled and configured by installer.
For CP-01 systems, alarm transmission delay must not exceed 45 seconds.

After having detected an alarm condition smoke detectors require a reset to exit the alarm condition.
NOTE:
Verify with your alarm company if this function is required on your system.
To Reset the Sensors
• Press and hold
• If a smoke detector fails to reset, it may still be detecting an alarm condition. If unsuccessful, the alarm
will reactivate or continue.
