Understanding the alarm signals:
FIRE Alarm: a loud pulsing, steady, loud pulsing tone
emitted through the speakers. Your installer may also
program the system to speak in between tones saying
“FIRE, FIRE (description of zone that activated), REMAIN
CALM, LEAVE IMMEDIATELY”.
EMERGENCY Alarm: a low pulsing tone is emitted
through the speakers. Your installer may also program the
system to speak in between tones saying “ALERT,
(description of zone that activated)”.
PANIC Alarm: a loud pulsing tone is emitted through the
speakers. Your installer may also program the system to
speak in between tones saying “ALERT, ALERT, (descrip-
tion of zone that activated)”.
BURGLAR Alarm: a loud yelping tone is emitted through
the speakers. Your installer may also program the system
to speak in between tones saying “INTRUSION
DETECTED, INTRUSION DETECTED (description of the
zone that activated)”.
PREALARM tone: a steady, low volume tone emitted
through the speakers during the entrance delay. This tone
is activated by opening the delay door and will continue
until the security system is disarmed. If the system is not
disarmed within the programmed delay time, the BUR-
GLAR alarm will sound. A broken or pulsing prealarm
tone signals that an alarm activation has occurred while
you were gone.
If the option is programmed to “speak during prealarm,”
the system will speak “entry detected,” followed by the
zone descriptor, instead of a solid prealarm tone.
DOOR & WINDOW ANNUNCIATOR: The system will
speak up to four words describing a zone followed by the
word “OPEN”. If you would prefer not to hear anything
when you open a window or door, simply access the
system from one of your phones and press your code
followed by 2 or press the M O NITOR key at an optional
keypad and you will hear “MONITOR OFF”. Now each
time you open a protected door or window there will be
status available over the phone and/or visual indication at
the keypad, but no sound. If you prefer to hear a beep
when you open, enter your code followed by 2 or press
the M O NITOR key again. You will now hear "MONITOR
TONE". Enter your code followed by 2 or press the
M ONITOR key and you will hear “MONITOR ON” and
the system will return to speech. No monitor will be
heard for a door or window that is bypassed.
Loss of AC power signal: Anytime that you lose AC
power, your security system automatically switches to the
backup battery and speaks “POWER OFF” one time
through the speaker.
