First Alert ReadyGuard Quick Start Manual

Introduction
This Quick Start Guide can help you install the ReadyGuard quickly and easily by providing the
basic steps for installation using the built-in defaults. For more detailed information and important
notes, refer to the ReadyGuard Installation Instructions.
The following steps assume that one of the system's default tables will be used.
For programming data values and Powerline Carrier Devices other than those listed in the default
tables, see the Installation Instructions.

NOTES:
• Tables 2 and 4 support the automatic paging feature (open/close events reported to pager phone
number), and a Powerline Carrier Device programmed as device 8, which closes and stays closed upon
burglary alarms and restores after bell timeout. For other applications or actions (e.g., using a pulsing
siren), see the *80 Powerline Carrier Device Programming section of the Installation Instructions.
• Primary report format for all tables is Ademco's Contact ID reporting. Tables 2 and 4 also use Contact ID
for secondary reporting. Tables 1, 3, and 5 use 4+1 format for secondary reporting.
• Tables 1 and 5 record all events in the event log. Tables 2, 3, and 4 record only alarms, alarm restores,
troubles, and trouble restores in their event logs.
