Glossary

The following terms are used throughout the guide.
Arm/Disarm: "Armed" simply means that the burglary portion of your system is
turned ON and is in a state of readiness. "Disarmed" means that the burglary
system is turned OFF, and must be rearmed to become operational. However, even
in a "disarmed" state, "emergency" and "fire" portions of your system are still
operational.
Bypass: To intentionally leave a specific zone unprotected while the rest of the
system is armed.
Day/Night Zone: An area of protection whose violation causes a trouble indication
during the disarmed (DAY) mode and an alarm during the armed (NIGHT) mode.
Delay Zone: An area of protection containing doors most frequently used to enter
or exit (typically, a front door, back door, or door from the garage into the building).
The delay zone allows sufficient time for authorized entry or exit without causing an
alarm. Consult your installer for the entry and exit delay times that have been set
for your system during installation and record them on the separate sheet provided
in this guide.
Keypad: This is the device through which you operate your system. It contains
numbered pushbuttons similar to those on telephones or calculators. These keys
control the arming or disarming of the system, and perform other functions that
were previously described in this manual.
Master Code: A 4-digit code that gives users access to all of the system's functions,
including the ability to program other users in the system. See also "User Code.
Partition: An independent group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without
affecting other zones or users.
User Code: A 4-digit code that gives users access to the system's basic functions.
