The Notify by Exception feature allows pro-
grammed pagerholders and/or the central station to
be notified when arming or disarming occurs out-
side of specified time schedules.
Here are two specific examples of how the Notify
by Exception feature might be used in a business
setting:
• Every morning you'd like to be notified if your
business is disarmed after its normal opening
time.
• Every evening you'd like to be notified if your
business is armed before its normal closing time.

Page In the Event of . . .

You can set up the Notify by Exception feature to
page in the following instances:
• Send a page if the system is disarmed before the
Opening time schedule begins or after the Open-
ing time schedule has ended.
(Exception Opening)
• Send a page if the system is armed before the
Closing time schedule begins or after the Closing
time schedule has ended. (Exception Closing)

Who Will Be Paged?

Your system can call up to 5 different pager num-
bers to report an Open Exception and/or Closed
Exception. You can request that the Central Station
receive these two reports as well.
Refer to the User Sheets in Appendix A to see
which pagers have been set up to receive a page for
this feature. Contact the installer if you would like
to turn the Notify by Exception on or off for any
programmed pager or for the central station.

Who Can Send a Page?

All user codes will send a page if used while Notify
by Exception feature is in effect.

What Will the Pager Report?

Exception Opening Reports report the arming level
(111 for 1—OFF) and the user code entered.

E
XCEPTION
Exception Closing Reports report the arming level
as 222 (2—STAY) or 333 (3—AWAY), and the user
code that armed to that level.
See Table 1 in Section 10 for more information on
paging reports.

When Will this Feature Be Active?

The most typical setup of this feature makes use of
both Exception Opening and Exception Closing.
(It is possible to use Exception Opening only or
Exception Closing only, however.)
The following figures show what page message
would be sent given the time the system was armed
or disarmed.

Assigning a Time Schedule

to Exception Opening and Closing

Follow these steps to define Opening and Closing
schedules for Exception paging. If you need assis-
tance setting up a time schedule that fits your
needs, see "Creating Time Schedules" on page 21.
An LED touchpad or Touchtone phone can be
used to set up Notify by Exception, but an
alphanumeric touchpad works much better
because of its extensive feedback.
See Appendix C for LED and phone program-
ming instructions.
