Disarming The System - DSC Power832 PC5O15 Instruction Manual

Disarming the System

Disarming from an LED or LCD5501Z Keypad:
Enter the premises through a designated Exit/Entry door; entering by any other door will sound an
immediate alarm. As soon as the Exit/Entry door is opened, the keypad will beep to indicate that the
system should be disarmed. Go to the keypad and enter your access code. If an error is made
entering the code, enter your code again. As soon as the correct code is entered, the Armed light
will go out and the keypad will stop beeping.
The correct access code must be entered before the entry delay period expires. If a valid access
code is not entered during this time, the system will go into alarm. The entry delay time may be
changed by your installer.
If an alarm occurred while the system was armed, upon disarming the system, the Memory light and
the zone light corresponding to the zone (zone number on LCD5501Z) which caused the alarm will
flash for 30 seconds. After the 30 second period, the Memory light and zone light will stop flashing and
the panel will return to the Ready state. Pressing the [#] key during the 30 second period will cancel
the alarm memory display. To view other alarms, press [ ][3].
If a trouble was detected when the panel is disarmed, the Trouble light will turn ON (See "Viewing
Trouble Conditions" on page 12 to determine the source of the trouble.) Please note that troubles will
not display while the system is in the Alarm Memory Display mode.

NOTE: If you return and find that an alarm has occurred while you were away, it is possible that
an intruder may still be on the premises. Go to a neighbour's house, and call the local police to
investigate.
The alarm memory is cleared each time the panel is armed so that any alarms showing are
alarms that occurred only during the last armed period.
