 Introduction

Congratulations on your ownership of this security alarm system. You’ve made a wise decision
in choosing it, for it represents the most innovative, precise and the latest in security protection
technology today. We would like to personally thank you for your purchase and would like to
provide you with additional information on this remarkable unit.

This security alarm system offers interior and perimeter protection. Various sensors are
strategically positioned throughout your premises to perform security monitoring such as detection
of movement, opening of windows and doors, shattering of glass, excess heat or smoke ….and
so on. Your system may also be programmed to automatically transmit alarm and status
messages to a central monitoring station and also provide appropriate information in the form of
beeping tones during an alarm event, both over the telephone network.

Please take a few minutes to review the contents of this manual. In order to realize the full
potential of this system it is important that you feel comfortable with its operation. The following
pages will familiarize you with the procedures for operating the security alarm system.

Glossary

Disarm or Arm respectively before the alarm goes off.
● Instant zone immediately triggers off the alarm if violated during Arm status.
● 24 Hour zone generates an alarm at all times regardless of the system Arm or Disarm state.
● Dual reporting allows two types of reporting formats in which the system dials your personal
telephone number and to a central monitoring station to report of events and alarms.
● Chime function causes the keypad beeper to sound a tone when zones are opened during
Disarm state.
● Remote arming and disarming allows you to Arm and Disarm your security system using
your mobile phone or local touch tone telephone from anywhere in the world.
● Quick mode function to activate Away, Home, Bypass, Review modes directly without the
need to enter your User code.
● Force arm function allows the system to arm, even if there are zones which are not yet
secured or still open.
● Auto daily test reports to Central monitoring station on the operating condition of the
system’s dialler.
● Key-switch input is connected to a normal switch or external radio remote control to perform
various system operations.
● Beeping tone menu allows you to perform standard functions remotely through a telephone
with an audible low frequency tones as feedback.
● Master User reserves the highest priority over other users. Only Master code is allowed to

Information
● Away arming will activate all zones of your alarm security system except bypassed zones.
All interior and external perimeters are armed. Use this mode when leaving your premises.
● Before arming your system to Away mode, all zones should be closed. There should not be
any movement in the rooms protected by motion detectors and each door or window
protected by reed switches should be properly closed.
