Arming & Disarming the System
Arming (Turning on)
Close all sensors (i.e. close doors and windows). The Ready indicator should be on. Arm the system
using either of the methods below.
AWAY mode: Enter your access code + AWAY (2 button).
STAY mode: Enter your access code + STAY (3 button).
Note: If motion detectors have not been installed on the alarm system, there is no difference in
arming in STAY or AWAY mode.
Disarming (Turning off)
Enter your access code + OFF (1 button) to disarm anytime the system is armed. The keypad will
beep if you walk through the entry door. Enter your code within 45 seconds to avoid an alarm
condition.
Open Zones
If you do not have a Ready light, press
ready light. If motion detector is open, stop movement and check for ready light. Once you have
ready light, proceed with arming process.
Bypassing Zones
Use the zone bypassing feature when you want to arm the system, but skip a zone that you want to
leave open or requires service. Bypassed zones will not be able to sound an alarm.
Zones cannot be bypassed once the system is armed. Bypassed zones are automatically cancelled
each time the system is disarmed and must be bypassed again, if required, before the next arming.
Bypass
1. Enter code + BYPASS (6 button).
2. Enter zone number(s) to be bypassed (use 2-digit entry).
3. Proceed with arming.
Quick Bypass (automatically bypasses all open zones)

Alarm Memory
When an alarm occurs, the keypad displays Alarm in Memory along with zone number.

Certain sensors (such as smoke detectors and glass break detectors) have to be reset after an alarm.
To reset enter Code + OFF, Code + OFF.

Questions and answers
I have an ademco panel for my home security system. I got a low battery entry. I replaced the main battery for the system. I now have a "Fault 20" laundry room. I replaced the battery in the upper right hand corner of the window. The window is shut. I have entered my four number code and #1 twice the panel will not reset, I still get the Fault laundry room display. What can I do? Please help. I do not have a local security company. The original installer has gone out of business. This is a self monitored system without fee for monthly monitoring.
