Security System Basics

What is a Point?
A point is a detection device, or group of devices connected to your
security system. Points are identified by the area they monitor, such as
front door, bedroom window, or hallway. View the current status of each
point in your system through the keypad's display.
What is a Faulted Point?
When a point (such as a door or window) is closed, it is said to be
"normal." When the door or window is open, the point is said to be
"faulted," or not normal. When you turn your system on, you usually want
all of the points in your system to be normal, although you can turn your
system on with faulted points by using the Bypassing Points (on page 16)
procedure.
You can see whether there are faulted points by pressing [CLEAR] when
the system is off.
Are All Points the Same?
There are two basic types of points, Controlled and 24-hour.
