Using the [OFF] key

The OFF key is used to disarm the system, silence alarm and trouble sounds, and clear

alarm memories.

IMPORTANT: If you return and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT ENTER,

but CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.

If you return after an alarm has occurred and the main sounder has shut itself off, the

keypad will beep rapidly upon your entering, indicating that an alarm has occurred

during your absence.

LEAVE AT ONCE, and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.

(Security Code)

The "READY" indicator light will be lit if all zones are

secure, and the keypad will emit a single tone to

confirm that the system is disarmed.

NOTE: If entry delay has started (you've opened the

entry door), you do not need to press the OFF key –

simply enter your security code. The system will disarm

in about 15 seconds after the last digit of the code is

entered.

2. To Silence a Burglary Alarm and Clear a Memory of Alarm

sequence again to clear the keypad's Memory of Alarm display.

3. To Silence a Fire Alarm or Carbon Monoxide Alarm and Clear a Memory of

Alarm

Simply press the OFF key to silence the alarm. Then enter the security code plus
