The Go!Control Security System Congratulations on your ownership of a Go!Control Security System! This wireless system offers protection for your property against burglary, protection for yourself and family with 24-hour emergency monitoring, and optionally fi re detection for your home. The heart of the system is the Control Panel.
System Overview General Information This system provides three forms of protection: burglary, fi re, and emergency, depending on the options set by the installer. The system consists of the Control Panel with a color touch screen, wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and wireless smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
System Overview General Operation Following are general operational concepts that your system supports. Understanding these concepts will help you to use your security system to it fullest extent. Sensor Types The system’s wireless sensors have been assigned to selected “types” (sometimes called “zones” in the alarm industry).
MICROPHONE For voice communication with the Central Station EMERGENCY BUTTON / INDICATOR Lights WHITE when enabled for emergency alarms 2GIG-CNTRL2 Blinks WHITE during emergency alarm HOME (2GIG-CP2) BUTTON / INDICATOR Lights GREEN when ALL sensors are closed (ready to arm)
Wireless Sensors Your security system has wireless sensors. Some sensors will be visible, other sensors are hidden inside the door jambs. Depending on your installation, there may be other types of sensors shown below. Be sure your installer shows you all the sensors installed in your system. Door / Window Sensor Motion Sensor Glass Break Sensor...
Main Display Screens The Control Panel is programmed and operated using the color touch-screen display. The Silent Control display will show various buttons, indicators, and text to guide and inform you. The top bar on the display shows the current Display Off system mode, scrolling text of any pending alerts, and system status icons for AC power,...
Burglary Protection Operating the System When your system was setup by your installer, wireless sensors were placed to monitor specifi c doors and windows. The installer selected these doors and windows as likely places where an unlawful intrusion might occur and could be detected. Each sensor was programmed to have the system react in a specifi...
Burglary Protection Sensor Status The security system constantly monitors all of the sensors attached to the protected doors and windows in your home or business. The Control Panel knows if each protected door or window is open or closed. The open or closed condition of the protected doors and windows is called the “sensor status”.
Burglary Protection Sensor Bypassing Before the system can be armed, all protected doors and windows must be closed or bypassed. The system uses “bypasses” to resolve open sensors on protected doors or windows before arming the system. When a sensor is bypassed, the system ignores that the door or window is open. There are two types of sensor bypasses available: forced and manual.
Burglary Protection Stay Mode Stay Mode is for arming the system when people will be staying on the premises. Stay Mode arms the sensor-protected perimeter doors and windows while not arming the interior motion sensors or other interior doors. This allows the premises to be occupied while the system is partially armed. Stay Mode is used mostly for arming the system during the evening hours after everyone is inside and no one is expected to enter or leave.
Burglary Protection Arming to Stay Mode Use Stay Mode to arm the system when anyone will be staying home. Stay Mode normally has an Entry Delay so someone with a User Code can re-enter without causing an alarm. 1. Close all protected perimeter doors and windows before arming. 2.
Burglary Protection Away Mode Away Mode is for arming the system when everyone will be leaving the premises. Away Mode arms all sensor-protected perimeter doors and windows, interior motion sensors, interior glass break sensors, and any other sensor-protected interior doors. The premises must be unoccupied while the system is armed.
Burglary Protection Arming to Away Mode Use the Away Mode to arm the system when everyone will be leaving the home. The Away Mode normally has an Entry Delay so someone with a User Code can re-enter without causing an alarm. Interior and perimeter sensors are armed in the Away Mode.
Burglary Protection Disarming the System To stop the Control Panel from triggering burglary alarms, the system will need to be disarmed. Disarming turns off the burglary detection part of the system for sensors that are not 24-hour sensors. Disarming also stops any type of alarm in process. The system should be disarmed from Stay Mode before exiting the premises.
Burglary Protection If a Burglary Alarm Occurs If an armed sensor is tripped while the system is armed in the Stay or Away Mode, an alarm will occur and the siren will sound. Delayed sensors will start the Entry Delay to allow time to disarm the system.
Burglary Protection Key Fob Arming and Disarming Your system may be equipped with one or more wireless key fobs. Up to eight key fobs can be used to control the system remotely. Each key fob has four buttons and can perform fi ve functions. A User Code is not required when arming or disarming the system with a wireless key fob.
Burglary Protection Wireless Keypad Arming and Disarming Your system may be equipped with one or more wireless keypads. Up to four wireless keypads can be used to control the system remotely from the main Control Panel. Two types of wireless keypads are available. The standard wireless keypad, and the wireless touch screen keypad.
Fire Protection Fire Alarm System Your system may be installed with smoke detectors and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors as part of an overall fi re and gas protection system. The fi re protection part of the security system is active 24 hours-a-day, offering continuous protection.
Fire Protection This equipment should be installed in accordance with Chapter 2 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269). Printed information describing proper installation, operation, testing, maintenance, evacuation planning, and repair service is to be provided with this equipment.
Fire Protection Emergency Evacuation Plan To establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fi re, the following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association: 1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so that they can be heard by all occupants.

USE THIS CODE ONLY IF SOMEONE IS FORCING YOU TO OPERATE YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM AGAINST YOUR WILL.
System Toolbox System History The Control Panel keeps a log of system events in the order in which they occur. Each event is marked with the date and time that the event occurred. To make reading the log easier, the system history display can be “fi ltered” to show selected events only.
System Toolbox System Test Even though your security system is self-monitoring, it is important to regularly test the system manually. The System Test is used to test each of the sensors in the system. The Master User Code is required to test the system. While the system is in test mode, a “T” icon will blink on the upper right of the display.
System Toolbox Telephone Test Your security system may be connected to your telephone line. The system can communicate with the Central Monitoring Station over your telephone line. Your system can send its alarm messages and system trouble or status messages using the land-based telephone system. 2-way audio communications with the Central Monitoring Station can also occur through the telephone connection.
