What to do if your system has an alarm
WARNING: If you return to the premises and the bell or keypad buzzer is sounding an
alarm do not enter. Contact the local authorities from a nearby safe location.
A two-tone keypad buzzer sound or a steady bell indicates an intrusion alarm. If the bell is
ringing, you cannot silence it from the PC5502Z2 keypad. Contact your alarm system adminis-
trator for assistance.
To silence the keypad buzzer:
1.
Enter your [access code].
2.
If the alarm was unintentional, call your central station or local authorities immediately to avoid
an unnecessary response.
3.
Check the alarm memory display to see which zone caused the alarm. Once the source of the
alarm has been corrected, the system will return to the Ready state.
Viewing Alarms in Memory
WARNING: If the alarm is not sounding, but there is an alarm in memory, it is possible
that an intruder may still be on the premises. Go to a nearby safe location and call the
local police to investigate.
If an alarm occurred while the system was armed, the System light and the zone light corre-
sponding to the zone that caused the alarm will flash for 30 seconds after the system has been
disarmed.
The alarm memory is cleared each time the system is armed. Any alarms showing on the sys-
tem have occurred only during the last armed period.
