When There's An Alarm; If The System Is Tampered With - NexxTech 49110000 Owner's Manual

Using the System

When There's an Alarm

When the system is armed (in Home or Away mode) and you open a protected door or
window, or walk past a Motion Detector (if armed in the Away Mode), or activate the Panic
feature (by pressing Arm and Disarm at the same time on the Key Chain Remote) the
alarm trips. The following then happens:
A loud siren sounds.
Lights (set to the two security codes) flash on and off (if you set up Nexxtech TM Home
Automation modules). See page 36.
The Console dials the first phone number you set up. It then starts to play the recorded
message you stored, e.g.: "There's an alarm in progress at (your address), at the end of
this message please press any button on your touch-tone phone to listen in."
Note, it might take a while before the person the Console called picks up the phone so
they might miss the first part of your message, but the message is repeated 3 times, so
they will get to hear the complete message.
When the person who was called answers the call and presses a button on their phone this
activates a microphone in the Console and they will be able to listen into your home, and
will be able to determine if there is suspicious activity going on. They can then take action.
(e.g.: call the Police for you).
VERY IMPORTANT: DO NOT program the Console to call the Police directly.
NOTES:
The person who answers the phone needs to wait for a gap between the messages before
they can press a button on their phone to listen in (the message repeats three times, but
might have already played once or twice before the person answers the phone).
If no one answers the call (and presses a button on their phone) before the third message
is played, the Console dials the next number stored. It can take quite some time to dial all
the numbers if you've stored 6 of them, and no one answers. The siren will stop sounding
after 4 minutes in any case (the unit still dials all the numbers stored unless someone
answers the call (and presses a button on their phone).

If the System is Tampered with

If the system is armed and someone tampers with (opens the cover) on a Door/Window
Sensor or the Console, the same thing happens as when the alarm is tripped by any
other method. If the system is NOT armed and someone tampers with a Sensor or the
Console, the word TAMPER appears in the display but the system does not trip. You must
fix the tamper before you can arm the system. Press Arm then Disarm to remove the word
TAMPER from the display.
