The Digit-Key Keypad All security system operations are carried out at the keypad. Each key hasaspecialfunction o f its own (see “CONTROLS” page 5) plus the ability to arm and disarm the system when they are used in a preselected combination (codes).
Checking AC Power If the three lights of your keypad are blinking slowly, you have lost AC power. Check to see if there has been a general power outage, or if the Control Center’s trans- former is disconnected. If you must operate without AC power, press Key9 to stop the lights from blink- ing.
If trouble is encountered on a zone programmed as a Priority- with-Bypass Zone however, enter your code to silence th e Mini- Sounder and disarm; hold down Reset Key 9 until it beeps (this will bypass the alarm condition); then enter your code to rearm.
Arming Wlth Selective Zone Shunting Your alarm specialist may have opted for one or more zones that can be selectively shunted (removed) from the system. Since a shunted zone cannot cause an alarm, you may wish to use this feature to turn OFF the interior areas while arming, and keeping your perimeter zones (windows, doors, etc.
Your Alarm Specialist may have programmed your security system to be monitore d by a central station. The built-in digital communicator can transmit emergency signals to the central station 24 hours a day.
Abort Delay Note which zones on your alarm plan have abort delay. This is a delay that enables you to reset the system before a zone condition report is sent to the central station. Non-24 hour zone reports are aborted by arming and then disarm- ing. 24 hour zones, however, must first be repaired.
The following information is applicable only where local ordinance permits use of your alarm Control Center for fire detection Controlling Your Fire Circuit If your alarm specialist installed smoke detectors or heat sensing thermostats, you have 24 hour fire protection.

Show two exit s - a front or back door and a window from each room. (Make sure the window works. You may need a special fire escape ladder if the window is high up.
