ARM- To turn the security system ON to detect intrusion or protect the house. There are three available
modes, or levels, of arming: AWAY, HOME, NIGHT.
AWAY- Arming mode for use when you are "AWAY" from the premises. All interior and perimeter
devices are armed; intrusion and/or movement within the premises will activate the alarm.
BYPASS- To temporarily remove a device or zone from the system that would normally be active when
the system is armed. If a zone is bypassed, it is not part of the system, and will not initiate an alarm.
CENTRAL STATION-If your security system is monitored, this is the agency that receives the incoming
burglary or emergency message from the security system and reports it to the proper authorities.
COMMUNICATOR- The device in the security panel that reports all burglary and emergency alarms to
the central station via the phone lines.
CONTROL PANEL- The heart of the security system. Only a qualified security system technician should
open the container that houses the control panel.
DAY ZONE- A zone that will speak upon activation when the system is not armed, but will become an
"instant" zone when the system is armed. The DAY ZONE will annunciate for a specified amount of time,
or until it is silenced by the homeowner. This is accomplished by entering your disarm code followed by 5.
EXAMPLE: A door leading to a pool area will announce when someone opens the door without the system
armed, and will activate the alarm only when the system is armed.
DISARM- To turn the security system OFF or to silence alarm activation, including fire alarms, that may
occur while the system is armed.
DISARM CODE- The three or four-digit number you enter to disarm the security system. The system will
accept 32 different disarm codes, including disappearing and duress codes. Your disarm code allows you
to control the alarm system from system keypads, local phones, and remote phones. Have your installer
give you a list of the different codes.
ENTRANCE DELAY- Time permitted to enter the armed premises and disarm the security system before
the alarm is activated. A 20-second delay is automatically set at the factory, but your installer can increase
or decrease this amount of time as desired.
EXIT DELAY- Time permitted to leave the premises after arming the system. A 30-second delay is
automatically set at the factory, but your alarm installer can increase or decrease this amount of time as
desired.
EXTENDED MONITOR- Allows a zone to speak continuously or for a programmable time period when
tripped. EXAMPLE: "Pool door open, pool door open..."
FORCE ARM- To override the security system's initial refusal to arm because of an open zone. When a
system is forced armed it will disregard or ignore any open zones until they have been closed.
HOME- Arming mode for use when you are at "HOME". Only perimeter devices are armed allowing you
to move about freely within the premises without fear of setting off the alarm. The system can be
programmed to eliminate all entrance delays when armed to home. This might be preferable to individuals
who live alone.
INTERIOR ZONES - Zones consisting of motion detectors and other devices that are located within the
premises.
LCD- Liquid Crystal Display. Will display all system status in English text.
