1. Overview

Zones

A 'zone' is part of the premises and may consist of one or more detection devices
protecting rooms and access points (e.g. front door, kitchen, downstairs windows,
upstairs bedrooms, etc.). When the alarm system is 'full set', all of the zones on the
system are monitored.
Your Installer may have programmed up to 10 characters of descriptive text for each
zone i.e. Front Door, Hall, Bedroom 1, etc.

To display the descriptive text associated with a particular zone number, press
and hold the corresponding key i.e.

! "
Text can only be viewed when using an LCD keypad.

Omitting Zones

In certain situations (because of an open window or a pet) the need to set the system
with a particular zone excluded (omitted) may arise. Zones can be omitted individually
when setting the system (see page 6 for details).

Part Set Suites 1 - 4

The alarm system also supports up to four Part Set Suites (programmed by the Installer).
The Part Set Suites can be used to automatically omit predefined groups of zones when
setting the system i.e. Part Set Suite 1 could be used to omit zones upstairs so that the
alarm can still be set downstairs at night (see page 5 for details).

If Your System is Due for Maintenance

The system has a service timer, which can be programmed by the Installer to give a
reminder when maintenance is due. The reminder can be either turning Chime on or
preventing the system from being set.

If the service timer turns Chime on, it can be turned off again manually (see page 9
for details). In either case contact your alarm company.
