If the alarm conditions are no longer valid, and the alarm has been reset, you must contact your
central station company to ensure that they take no further action.

If you are unable to reset an alarm because of a faulty zone, refer to the section Menu option 10,

attend, refer to the section on Inhibit/Uninhibit RAS/DGP (Menu option 16 on page 57).
