Control of the Protected Premises
In order to have a UL Certificated system the protected area is to be under the responsibility of one ownership and
management (i.e. one business under one name). This may be a group of buildings attached or unattached with different
addresses but under the responsibility of someone having mutual interest. The person of mutual interest is not the alarm
installing company.
Bell Location
The alarm sounding device (bell) must be located where it can be heard by the person or persons responsible for
maintaining the security system during the daily arming cycle.
Protection of the Control Unit
The local control and the local power supply must be protected by one of the following ways:
• The control unit and audible alarm device must be in a protected area which is armed 24 hours a day.
• Each partition shall arm the area protecting the control unit and the audible alarm device power supply. This may
require duplicate protection armed by each partition. Access to this protected area, without causing an alarm, will
require that all partitions be disarmed.
In all cases described above, the protected area for the control unit must be programmed as not bypassable.
Casual Users
The installer should caution the user(s) to not give system information to casual users (e.g. codes, bypass methods, etc. to
baby-sitters or service people). Only the One-Time Use codes should be given to casual users.
User Information
The installer should advise the users and note in the user instruction manual:
• Service organization name and telephone number
• The programmed exit time
• The programmed entry time
