LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM ..................43 ONE YEAR WARRANTY ........................44 Congratulations on your ownership of an ADEMCO Security System. You have made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today. ADEMCO is the world's largest manufacturer of security systems, and millions of premises are protected by ADEMCO products.
Features General Information This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on the configuration of your system. The system consists of a master keypad for controlling system operation, various wireless sensors which provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and optional smoke or combustion detectors to provide early fire warning.
General Operation Zones Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the sensing device on your entry/exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These numbers appear on the display when an alarm or trouble condition occurs. LYNXR is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour backup 8 / battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed.

Checking System Status General Information Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows, and other protection zones must be closed or bypassed (see the BYPASSING PROTECTION section). Pressing the key will announce all zones STATUS that are faulted, as well as any other abnormal system condition, making it easier for you to secure any open zones.
Arming the System Arming in Stay Mode Use this mode when you are staying home, but expect someone to use the entrance door later. Close all protected perimeter windows and doors before arming. The green READY indicator on the keypad should be lit if the system is ready to be armed.
Arming the System Arming the System With No Delay Use NO DELAY with STAY mode when you are staying home and do not expect anyone to use the entrance door. Use NO DELAY with AWAY mode when the premises will be vacant for extended periods of time such as vacations, etc.
Entry/Exit Delays Exit Delay Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. A slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period, if programmed. Exit Alarms Exit Alarm Active To minimize false alarms sent to the alarm monitoring company, your system may have been programmed...
Disarming the System Use the key to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. See the SUMMARY OF AUDIBLE NOTIFICATION section for information, which will help you to distinguish between fire and burglary alarm sounds. IMPORTANT: If you return and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT enter the premises, but call the police from a nearby safe location.
Bypassing Protection Zones Bypassing Individual Zones Use the key when you want to arm your system with one or more zones intentionally unprotected. BYPASS Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed. All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed.
Panic Keys / Chime Mode Panic Keys Your system may have been programmed to use special keys to manually activate panic functions. The functions that might be programmed are listed below. See your installer for the function(s) that may have been programmed for your system.
Paging Feature Automatic Paging If the Paging feature has been programmed for your system, your pager will respond to certain conditions as they occur in your system by displaying a message that indicates the type of condition that has occurred. The message appears in a 7-digit format explained below.
Using Powerline Carrier Device Commands (Lights On/Lights Off Keys) General Information Your system may be set up so that certain lights or other devices can be turned on or off by using the device command from the keypad. Ask your installer if this has been done in your system. If programmed for your system, some devices may activate automatically upon certain system conditions.

(If Installed) LYNXR is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour backup 8 / battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed. General Your fire alarm system (if installed) is active 24 hours a day, providing continuous protection. In the event of an emergency, the installed smoke and heat detectors will automatically activate your security system, triggering a loud, intermittent sound from the keypad.
National Fire Protection Association’s Smoke Detector Recommendations LYNXR is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour backup 8 / battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed. With regard to the number and placement of smoke and heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #74 noted below.
Emergency Evacuation LYNXR is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour backup 8 / battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed. Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association: 1.
Security Codes General Information For additional security, users other than you who do not need to know your code can be assigned different security codes. These secondary users are identified by "user numbers" when their codes are assigned. You can assign up to 6 user codes (2-digit user numbers 03-08). Note that the master (primary) user of the system is the only one who can assign codes to secondary users, and is designated user no.
Testing the System (to be conducted weekly) Entering Test Mode key puts your system into the Test mode, which allows each protection point to be checked for TEST proper operation. The keypad sounds a single beep every 45 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the Test mode.
Trouble Messages Typical Trouble Condition Displays To silence the beeping sound for fault conditions, press any key. FAULT Indicates that a problem exists with the zone(s) displayed, accompanied by rapid beeping. First, determine if the zone(s) displayed are intact and make them so if they are not.
