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. In addition, optional wireless keypads may have been installed to allow you
to control the system away from the master keypad.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system
status, display appropriate information on the keypad display, and initiate appropriate
alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or
status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.
The user features of this security system are listed below. Ask your installer which
features have been programmed for your system.
