Setting and Unsetting

The majority of alarm systems are intended to detect the
movements of people, and to notify others when people move
into protected areas. Readying the system to start an alarm when
someone moves into a protected area is called "setting" the
system. Disarming the system so that people can move freely is
called "unsetting" the system.

Alarms and Reset

When the system starts an alarm it usually includes activating
sounders and strobes and sending messages to an Alarm
Receiving Centre (ARC). The ARC may then call the police or other
security service to come and investigate the alarm.
Before you can set the system again you must silence the
sounders and then "reset" the system so that it is ready for
setting again (see page 15 for instructions). Please note that your
Installer may have programmed your system so that although you
can silence the sounders, you cannot reset the system yourself.
Instead you have to call the Installer to come and check the
system and reset it for you.
