Introduction to the IDS X-Series Alarm Panel

1.
Congratulations on your purchase of an IDS Alarm Panel to protect your most valued possessions.
The IDS X-series is a versatile and expandable range of alarm panels with 8 partitions and can be expanded to
monitor up to 64 zones depending on the model. Most features are optional and may be programmed directly
through the keypad. There is a dedicated panic zone, monitored siren output, auxiliary power outputs and 5
(expandable to 57) programmable outputs that may be programmed to perform various trigger/switching
functions. These can all be programmed by your installer.
For correct operation, these Alarm Panels must be used in conjunction with the specified transformer/battery
combination and appropriate peripheral sensors and signalling devices.
B e fore Operating Y our Alar m Sys te m

Read the entire manual carefully and keep it in an accessible place.
 Note that this is not a DIY product, and your security system should be installed and serviced by a
qualified security professional who should instruct you regarding the level of protection provided and
the operation of the system.

Should you have any questions regarding the operation of the system, contact your installer.
 Note that your system should be tested on a regular basis. Before testing the system, please notify your
security company of your intention to do so.

NEVER disconnect the mains power, as the back-up battery will eventually discharge thereby causing
the control panel to shut down.
 Note that a security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and (if
applicable) your central monitoring station, of an emergency situation.

Note that smoke and heat detectors may not detect all fire situations.
 This manual is not a fully detailed installation manual – the installation manual is only available to
accredited installers.
 Note that the performance of your alarm system will to a large extent be determined by the quality and
installation of the detectors attached to your panel.
