Operation from an Outside Telephone

The Console has remote telephone access, with voice responses to acknowledge receipt

of remote commands.

When you call home, the Console answers and says "Please enter PIN." You enter your

PIN using the touch tone buttons on the remote telephone.

If the PIN is entered correctly it says "PIN accepted". If wrong it says "Error."

Pressing 0, then * (on the remote telephone's touch tone keypad) arms the Console.

Pressing 0, then # disarms the Console.

Press 9, then 9, then * tells you the current system status: i.e. it says Armed Home, Armed

away, Disarmed, Panic alarm, or Alarm in zone (1 – 32).

The numbers 1 –32 in the display refer to up to 32 "zones." These represent the Door/

Window Sensors and/or Motion Detectors you installed. Therefore if the alarm tripped

because zone 3 was violated, when you call in and press 9, 9, * you will hear "Alarm in

zone 3."

If you install one or more Nexxtech

modules (sold separately), see previous page, you

can control lights and appliances around your home from any touch tone telephone in the

world.

When you call home, the Console answers and says "Please enter PIN."

If the PIN is entered correctly it says "PIN accepted". If wrong it says "Error."

If you then press 4, then * on the touch tone phone, it says "4 On" and turns on any

Nexxtech

module(s) set to Unit Code 4 .

If you then press 1, then 6, then # on the touch tone phone, it says "16 Off" and turns off

any Nexxtech

module(s) set to Unit Code 16.

If you own an answering machine, you will normally set it to answer after a few rings.

In this case, when the answering machine answers a call (or if there's someone home

who picks up the phone), the security system will NOT answer the call and will NOT

say "Please enter PIN." You can still however go ahead and enter the PIN to access

the security system features above. Just wait until your answering machine ﬁnishes

its outgoing message and then enter your security system PIN. Note, your answering

machine will record the touch tones you hear when you press buttons to turn lights on and

off, etc. and will also record the messages played back by the security system.
