Congratulations on your ownership of a First Alert Partitioned Security
System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the
latest in security protection technology today. First Alert is the world's
largest manufacturer of security systems and millions of premises are
protected by First Alert systems.
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and
emergency. To realize the system's full potential, it is important that you feel
comfortable in operating it. Your system consists of at least one Keypad
which provides full control of system operation, various sensors which
provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus a selected number of
strategically placed smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide early
warning in case of fire.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones
and system status and provides appropriate information for display on the
Keypad(s) used with the system, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your
system may also have been programmed to automatically transmit alarm or
status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.
A Partitioned System
Simply stated, a partitioned system shares one physical alarm system among
different users, with each user having their own requirements. For the most
part, you as a user need not know about other users and their structure in
the system, but from time to time, you may see display messages which
indicate the system is in use by another user. Do not be concerned, this is
normal. Refer to the ACCESSING OTHER PARTITIONS section for
additional information.
