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

Enter your security code. This disarms the system and silences the alarm (or

warning tones of a Memory of Alarm).

Note the zone in alarm on the keypad display, and make that zone intact (close

door, window, etc.). Now enter the security code plus OFF to clear the keypad's

Memory of Alarm display.

3. To Silence a Fire Alarm and Clear Memory of Alarm

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

OFF sequence to clear the keypad's Memory of Alarm display. See the Fire Alarm

System section.
