Alarm Memory; Sensor Reset - DSC PTK5507 User Manual

Alarm Memory

When an alarm occurs, the Memory or System indicator will turn on.
To view which sensor(s) generated the alarm, press Alarms . The sensor number where the alarm
occurred will be displayed (e.g. zone 3) (see Figure 10 on page 11).
Use the [<][>] scroll keys to view the sensors in alarm memory.
Back or Home
Press to exit. To clear the memory, arm and disarm the system.
If an alarm sounded while armed, the keypad will automatically go to alarm memory when you disarm
the system. In this instance, you should approach with caution, as the intruder may still be within the
building/premises.

Sensor Reset

Certain sensors, after having detected an alarm condition, require a reset to exit the alarm condition
(e.g., glass break sensors, smoke detectors, etc.). Ask your alarm company if this function is required on
your system.
To reset the detectors, press the Reset (Command Output 2 if the installer did not program a label) but-
ton on the Outputs screen.
If a sensor fails to reset, it may still be detecting an alarm condition. If the sensor reset is successful, the
alarm is cancelled. If unsuccessful, the alarm will reactivate or continue.
