 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTION
The Following Recommendations for the Location of Fire and Burglary Detection Devices Help
Provide Proper Coverage for the Protected Premises.
Recommendations for Smoke and Heat Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72
noted below.
• Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and
areas of the household as follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each
separate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements. The
installation of smoke detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally
recommended.
• For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room,
dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and
attached garages.

In addition, we recommend the following:

• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or completely
closed. Smoke could be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up the
sleeper if the door is closed.
• Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances (such as portable heaters, air
conditioners or humidifiers) are used.
• Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.
• Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any room where alarm control
connections to an AC source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room could
prevent the control from reporting a fire or an intrusion.

THIS CONTROL COMPLIES WITH NFPA REQUIREMENTS FOR TEMPORAL PULSE

SOUNDING OF FIRE NOTIFICATION APPLIANCES.

Recommendations For Proper Intrusion Protection

• For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or
premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level
building.
• In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system. This will ensure that alarm
signals can be sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm
signals are normally sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

LOCAL SOUNDER DISABLE: The Master Keypad’s built-in piezo sounder can be disabled by setting the
sounder disable switch to OFF. If disabled, however, no sounding will occur upon AC loss, since the
external sounder does not operate when AC power is lost.
HARDWIRED ZONE: If the EOLR is not at the end of the loop, the zone will not be properly supervised, and the
system may not respond to an open circuit on the zone.

3. Hardwired Zone Connections

Zone 1 is an EOLR supervised zone that supports both open circuit and closed circuit devices and has a response
time of 350msec. Maximum zone resistance: 300 ohms, plus EOLR
Note: The hardwire zone cannot be used as a fire or CO zone.
a. Connect sensors/contacts to the hardwired zone terminals 6 (-) and 7 (+). Refer to the Summary of Connections
diagram.
b. Connect closed circuit devices in series in the high (+) side of the loop. The EOL resistor must be connected in
series with the devices, following the last device.
c. Connect open circuit devices in parallel across the loop. The 2000-ohm EOLR must be connected across the loop
at the last device.
4. Make External Sounder Connections - The control panel a 6-14VDC bell (120mA max.; e.g. ADEMCO WAVE2EX).
a. Connect a bell to terminals 8 (-) and 9 (+).
5. Disable Local Sounder Option - If required, the Master Keypad’s built-in piezo sounder can be disabled.
a. Set the Local Sounder Disable Switch to OFF.
6. Make Powerline Carrier Device Connections - The control panel supports up to 8 Powerline Carrier Devices. If using
these devices, they must be connected to the control via a K10145X10 transformer.

Installing Wireless Zones

General Information
Zones: The control supports up to 24 wireless zones using 5800 Series transmitters, and up to 16 wireless
buttons.
Range: The built-in RF receiver can detect signals from wireless transmitters within a nominal range of
200 feet.
Transmitters: 5800 Series transmitters have built-in serial numbers that must be entered into the
system using the ✻56 or ✻83 interactive mode, or input to the control via the downloader. 5800 Series
transmitters (except the 5800RL, which is described separately) do not have DIP switches. Each
transmitter's zone number is programmed into the system in ✻56 mode. Some transmitters, such as the
5816 and 5817, can support more than one "zone" (referred to as loops or inputs). On the 5816, for
example, the wire connection terminal block is loop 1; the reed contact is loop 2. Each loop must be
assigned a different zone number.
The 5816 and 5817 Transmitters do not have EOL supervision of their loop wiring and the loop wiring must
not exceed 3 feet.
UL The 5800RL, 5802MN, 5802MN2, 5804, 5804BD, 5804BDV, 5804E, 5814, 5816TEMP, 5819, 5819S(WHS &
BRS), 5828/5828V and 5850(GBD) transmitters have not been evaluated by UL.

For button transmitters (RF "keys") such as the 5804 and 5801, you must assign a unique zone number to
each individual button used on the transmitter. Each button on the transmitter also has a pre-designated
loop or input number, which is automatically displayed.
House Identification
If you are using a 5804BD/5804BDV Wireless Keypad with the system, you must program a House ID
Code (01–31) in field ✻24 to establish proper communication, and the keypad must be set to the same ID.
House ID 00 disables all wireless keypads. An RF House ID is not necessary for other 5800 Series
transmitters; the entry should be left at “00” (default) in those cases.
Transmitter Supervision
Except for some transmitters/keypads that may be carried off-premises (5804, 5804BD, 5804BDV, and
5804E), each transmitter is supervised by a check-in signal that is sent to the receiver at 70–90 minute
intervals. If at least one check-in is not received from each supervised transmitter within a 12-hour period,
the "missing" transmitter number(s) and "FAULT" will be displayed. Additionally, the panel will beep once
every 45 seconds until acknowledged. The supervision for a particular transmitter in the system that may
also be carried off the premises (5801, 5802MN) may be turned off by entering it as a "UR" (unsupervised
RF) type, as described in the ✻56 Enhanced Zone Programming Mode section. 5800 Series transmitters
have built-in tamper protection and dependant on system status, will annunciate as a fault or alarm
condition if covers are removed.
Transmitter Input Types
Each of the following transmitters has one or more unique factory-assigned input (loop) ID codes. Each of
the inputs requires a programming zone (e.g., a 5804's four inputs require four button zones). Transmitters can
be entered as one of the following types (see transmitter’s instructions for appropriate input type):
Type Description
"RF" (Supervised RF) Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and low battery signals.
The transmitter must remain within the receiver's range.
"UR" (Unsupervised RF) Sends all the signals that the "RF" type does, but the control does not supervise the
check-in signals. The transmitter may therefore be carried off-premises.
"BR" (Unsupervised Button RF) These only send fault signals. They do not send low battery signals until they are
activated. The transmitter may be carried off-premises.
Transmitter Battery Life
• Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from 4–7 years, depending on the environment, usage,
and the specific wireless device being used. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well
as large swings in temperature may all reduce the actual battery life in a given installation. The wireless
system can identify a true low battery situation, thus allowing the dealer or user of the system time to
arrange a change of battery and maintain protection for that point within the system.

Lynx Plus Series Installation and Setup Guide

Installing Wireless Zones

• Button-type transmitters should be periodically tested for battery life. The 5801, 5802MN, 5802MN2,
5804, 5804BD, 5804BDV, and 5804E button transmitters have replaceable batteries.
Using the Transmitter Sniffer Mode
Use this mode after all transmitters have been entered to check that all transmitters have been properly
programmed.
1. Enter Installer code (4112) + [#] + 3.
Note: If the communicator is in the process of sending a report to the central station, the system will not go into the Sniffer
mode. If so, wait a few minutes and try again.
2. The keypad will display all zone numbers, which have a non-zero Zone Type (even if serial numbers
were not learned yet). Fault each transmitter in turn, causing each one to send a signal. As the system
receives a signal from each of the transmitters, the zone number of that transmitter will disappear
from the display. The transmitters may be checked upon installation, or in an installed system.
3. When all transmitters have been checked, exit Sniffer mode. Enter Installer Code (4112) + OFF.
Notes: (1) Sniffer mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit (Installer Code + OFF) Sniffer
mode to return to normal operation.
(2) All BR-type units must physically be activated to clear the display, since they do not automatically send
check-in signals.
(3) When one button of a transmitter (RF, UR, or BR) is activated, all zones assigned to other buttons on that
transmitter are cleared. This also applies to 5816 and 5817 transmitters that have multiple loops (zones).
(4) Any transmitter that is not “entered” will not turn off its zone number.
(5) For SIA installations, the following devices may be used as specified for panic (24-hour) alarm response:
• wireless keys which have two-button panic pairs available (e.g., 5804BDV), on which only the two-button
panic pairs may be programmed for any 24-hour alarm response
• wireless keypads (e.g., 5828/5828V) keypads that have a two-second delay on the special function keys, or
two-button panic pairs
• built-in keypad’s two-button panic pairs
Go/No Go Test Mode
5804E encrypted (High-Security) devices must be activated while the system is in Go/No Go Test Mode.
Refer to the transmitter’s installation instructions for complete details. The system will confirm
enrollment of the encrypted device by beeping two times
The Go/No Go tests will verify adequate RF signal strength from the proposed transmitter location, and
allow you to reorient or relocate transmitters if necessary, before mounting the transmitters permanently.
This mode is similar to the transmitter Test mode, except that the wireless receiver gain is reduced. This
will enable you to make sure that the RF signal from each transmitter is received with sufficient signal
amplitude when the system is in the normal operating mode.
1. Enter Installer Code (4112) + [#] + 8.
2. Once you have placed transmitters in their desired locations and the approximate length of wire to be
run to sensors is connected to the transmitter's screw terminals (if used), fault each transmitter.
Conducting this test with your hand wrapped around the transmitter will cause inaccurate results.
On button type transmitters that have been programmed to set ARM AWAY, ARM STAY, or DISARM,
pressing a button will take the system out of the Go/No Go Test mode causing the programmed action to
occur.
a. The keypad will beep three times indicating signal reception and will display the appropriate zone
number.
b. If the keypad does not beep, reorient or move the transmitter to another location. Usually a few
inches in either direction is all that is required.
3. If each transmitter produces the proper keypad response when it is faulted, you can then permanently
mount each of the transmitters according to the instructions provided with them.
4. Exit the Go/No Go Test mode by entering: Installer Code (4112) + OFF.

Mechanics of Programming
General Programming Information
Programming options are stored in non-removable, electrically erasable, nonvolatile EEROM memory. The
system can be programmed at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual installation.
Simply apply power temporarily to the Control and then program the unit as desired. There are four
programming modes:
• Data field programming (used for setting various system options).
• Interactive menu mode programming (used for programming zone information, programming
Powerline Carrier Devices, and for entering transmitter serial numbers).
• Voice Prompt programming (used for setting various system options).
The system can also be programmed remotely, using an IBM PC compatible Personal Computer, and
Compass Downloader and modem or via capable GSM or IP communications modules. See the Remote
Programming/Control (Downloading) section.
Note: You may find it convenient to adjust the volume setting before entering the Program Mode. This will allow you to
clearly hear the feedback announcements or system beeps in the Programming Mode, of the system’s built-in
speaker. To adjust the volume, press FUNCTION + VOLUME+ [3] or [6]. Upon exiting the Program Mode, the
system will reset the volume to the default value (mid level).

Entering Program Mode

Use one of the following methods to enter Programming Mode:
1. Press both the [✻] and [#] keys at the same time, within 50 seconds after power is applied to the
Control or from exiting Programming mode, OR
2. After power-up, enter the Installer Code (4112) + 800 to enter Expert Programming mode OR
enter Installer Code (4112) + 888 to enter Voice Prompt Programming mode. This method is
disabled if Program mode is exited using ✻98.

If a different Installer Code has been programmed, use that code to enter the Programming mode.

3. Upon entering programming mode, the control will initially display “Entering Programming Mode”.
4. Once you have entered the Program mode, data field “20 INSTALLER CODE” (the first data field in
the system) will be displayed and both keypad LEDs will flash. If you have entered the Voice Prompt
Programming mode. “Pro” will be displayed and the system will announce “Programming, use arrows
to scroll choices. Press select to accept, press escape to quit”.

Programming a Data Field

1. Press [✻] + Field No. (for example, ✻21), followed by the required entry.
2. When you have completely programmed a data field, the keypad will “beep” three times and then
automatically display the next data field in sequence. To go to a different field, press [✻] plus the
desired field number.
3. If the number of digits that will be entered in a data field is less than the maximum number of digits
available (e.g. phone number field), enter the desired data, then press [✻] to advance to the next data
field.
4. If a nonexistent field has been entered, the keypad will display “EE Invalid Entry”. Simply re-enter [✻]
plus a valid field number.
Viewing a data field (without making changes):
Enter [#] + Field No. The system will beep three times and data programmed for that field will be displayed to the
right of the field number. The system will scroll through the data for longer numbers and a beep will sound after
each number is displayed or three times after the final digit is displayed.
Deleting an entry in a field
Enter [✻] + Field No. + [✻]. (Applies only to fields ✻40–✻44, ✻88 and ✻94).

To ensure that the Lynx Plus Series properly transmits its reports to the Central Station via the proper channel you must
program a Primary Phone Number in Field ✻41 and/or activate/deactivate the LRR/IP Communications Module in Field ✻55.
The 15-Second Dialer Delay (Burglary), programmed in Field in ✻50 is independent of the delay selected in Field ✻77 and
applies to both telephone and communications device.

DYNAMIC SIGNALING DELAY/DYNAMIC SIGNALING PRIORITY FIELD ✻77

Two report channels are used by the Lynx Plus Series to support the LRR/IP communications device and
dynamic signaling. For the primary channel the device can communicate via AlarmNet GSM/IP or Cellular
communications devices. Secondary phone is not affected by dynamic signaling scheme. Two programming
options are used to define dynamic signaling behavior. Field ✻55 is used to enable/disable the LRR/IP
communications device and allows it to supervise the communications module. The two-digit option
programmed in Field ✻77 defines how dynamic signaling will function. The Dynamic signaling options are
shown as follows:
Enable/Disable Dynamic Signaling Delay/Dynamic Signaling
Reporting Option Device (Field ✻55) (Field ✻77)
Primary Phone only 0 = Disable 1st Entry
Report is sent to Primary phone with No Dynamic Signaling * = Enter any digit

communications device with No Delay communication device
2nd Entry
* = enter any number as a second entry
Primary Phone is the preferred channel 1 = Enable 1st Entry
First report is sent to the primary phone. If primary phone * = Enter a delay for the first entry
fails to deliver report within the delay window defined in *77 2nd Entry
all following reports go to both primary phone and 0 = Primary Dialer is the preferred channel
communications device with no delay. When report goes
through the primary phone, the control stops reporting to
communications device.
Note: The delay must be set to at least 30 seconds if Remote
Phone Control and/or AAV is enabled.
LRR/IP is the preferred channel 1 = Enable 1st Entry
First report is sent to the communications device. If device * = Enter any delay for the first entry
fails to deliver report within the time window defined in *77, 2nd Entry
all following reports go to both LRR/IP device and primary 1 = LRR/IP is the preferred channel
phone with no delay. When report goes through the LRR/IP
device, the control stops reporting to primary phone.

will wait for acknowledgment from the first reporting destination (preferred channel)
before it attempts to send a message to the second destination. This delay is per
message. Delays can be selected from 0 to 225 seconds, in 15-second increments. If 0 is
entered, the control panel will send redundant reports to both Primary Dialer and the
LRR/IP communications device. For LRR radio reporting enter any non-zero digit for
the first entry.
2nd Entry
The second entry determines the alternate Central Station communication path that
will be initiated after the time-out period. It allows you to select the (Dynamic

✻80 Device Programming Menu Mode

Powerline Carrier Devices (e.g.; X10 brand devices) are programmable switches that can be used to perform
many different functions, such as turning lights on and off, controlling sounders, or for status indications.
In this system, each device must be programmed to perform a function (ACTION), when to activate
(START), and when to deactivate (STOP). Each function is described below. Signals from the control panel
are sent via the K10145X10 transformer or the PL513 Powerline Interface Module through the premises AC
wiring to the Powerline Carrier Devices (which are plugged into AC outlets). Devices plugged into Powerline
Carrier Devices can then be made to perform various functions in response to commands entered at the
keypads in the security system. The control supports a total of 8 output devices. This mode is also used to
program Remote Services Multi-mode (e-mail) event triggers.

UL Powerline Carrier Devices have not been evaluated by UL.

Programming Options Defined

The following will help you understand the programming of output devices when using ✻80 and ✻81 modes.
ACTION – The “ACTION” programming determines how the device will respond when it is activated by the
“START” programming. There are four different choices of actions:
• ACTIVATE for 2 SECONDS and then reset.
• ACTIVATE and REMAIN ACTIVATED until stopped by some other event.
• PULSE ON and OFF until stopped by some other event.
• NOT USED when the device is not used.
START - The “START” programming determines when and under what conditions the device will be
activated. The following “START” options are available:
Start by Event - An event is the condition (alarm, fault, trouble) that must occur to a zone or group of zones
(zone list) in order to activate the device. These conditions apply only when a zone list is used. The different
choices for “EVENT” are listed below and in the “Programming Powerline Carrier Devices” paragraph that
follows.
• ALARM - Device activates upon any alarm in an assigned zone in the zone list.
• FAULT - Device activates upon any opening or short in an assigned zone in the zone list.
• TROUBLE - Device activates upon any trouble condition in an assigned zone in the zone list.
• NOT USED - Device action is not dependent upon one of the above events.
A zone list is a group of zones to which the “EVENT” applies in order to activate a particular device. There
are a total of 3 output device-related zone lists that can be programmed in ✻81 menu mode. When the
selected EVENT (alarm, fault or trouble) occurs in any zone in the selected “Start” ZONE LIST (1, 2, or 3),
activation of the selected device will START.
Start by Zone Type or System Operation
If a system operation, such as “DISARMING” or “ANY FIRE ALARM,” is to activate the device, the
appropriate choice would also be entered under the “ZONE TYPE” option. “ZONE TYPE” is used
independently of the “EVENT/ZONE LIST” combination.
If a “ZONE TYPE” is chosen, any zone of that response type going into alarm, trouble, or fault will cause the
device to activate as selected in “ACTION.” If the same “ZONE TYPE” is also chosen for the STOP
programming, any zone of that type that restores will de-activate the device.
If a “SYSTEM OPERATION” is chosen (e.g., End of Exit Time), that operation will cause the device to
activate as selected in “ACTION”. The different choices for “ZONE TYPE” and “SYSTEM OPERATION” are
listed in the “Start zone type” paragraphs later in this section, and in the Programming Form.
STOP - The “STOP” programming determines when and under what conditions the device will be deacti-
vated. The following options are available:
Upon Restore of a Zone List - Restore Zone List: If a “ZONE LIST” is used as the “Stop” event, the device
will de-activate when all the zones in that list restore from a previous fault, trouble, or alarm condition.
This will occur regardless of what is programmed to "START" the device; therefore, a “RESTORE ZONE
LIST” would normally only be used when a “ZONE LIST” is used to start the device.

✻80 Device Programming Menu Mode

Upon a Zone Type or System Operation - Zone Type/System Operation: Instead of using a “RESTORE
ZONE LIST”, a specific zone (response) type or system operation action can be selected to de-activate the
device.
If a specific “ZONE TYPE” is chosen, any zone of that response type that restores from a previous alarm,
trouble, or fault condition will cause the device to de-activate.
If a “SYSTEM OPERATION” is chosen, that operation will cause the device to de-activate.
During normal system operation, any devices may be:
• Manually started by keypad entry of: Code* + [#] + 4 + “nn;” OR
• Manually stopped by keypad entry of: Code* + [#] + 7 + “nn,” where “nn” = the 2-digit device
number to be controlled.
* Code is required for devices 07 and 08. For devices 01-06, code is not required. See User Manual for more
information.

✻83 Enhanced Sequential Mode

By using this mode, you can add, delete, or change the serial number of a transmitter in a zone, but retain
all other existing data that has been programmed for that zone. Note that the ✻83 Enhanced Sequential
mode requires that all zone information must first be entered using the ✻56 Enhanced Zone Programming
mode for all zones below zone number 26 (4 button key area).
Certain button-type transmitters have more than one button (e.g., 5804). Note that each button must be
assigned to a different zone. Similarly, the 5816 Transmitter has contact terminals and a reed switch for use
with a magnet. If using both, each must also be assigned to a different zone.
This means that the procedures that follow must be repeated for each button-type zone below zone number
26 or contact on the transmitter. Four zone button-type devices are held in zones 26 and above. They will be
started on boundaries of zones 26, 30, 34, and 38. These four zone button-type devices will have the option to
have all information entered in this field. One entry will set the loop number, report code, zone type, and
input device type for all 4 buttons, and a second entry will enter one serial number into four zones.
The following explains these prompts in detail. The left column identifies the prompts and lists the available
entries. The right column provides a further explanation of the entries.
Notes: (1) Use this mode only after all other zone information has been programmed, including transmitter loop numbers
except for button-type zones over zone number 26. The panel will stop at zones 26, 30, 34 and 38 and zone data
can be entered as a default here
(2) Any zone which already has a serial number learned in will not be accessible in ✻83 Enhanced Sequential mode.
(3) Entry of a number other than one specified will give unpredictable results.
(4) In Enhanced Sequential Mode, 4 button type keys will always be enrolled simultaneously. They will be stopped at
the 4 button boundaries of 26, 30, 34 and 38, provided the zone is free of a serial number. If the first zone of the
key has a serial number enrolled, the remaining keys cannot be programmed in sequential mode. In addition, if
the zone has not been set up (duplicate loop, missing zone type, etc.) only entries 0 (skip to the next zone) and 4
(copy the key template) will be allowed.
(5) You may find it convenient to adjust the volume setting before entering the Programming Mode. This will allow
you to clearly hear feedback announcements or system beeps.

Zone Number
A02
A02 Enter the 2-digit zone number of the first transmitter to have its serial number entered.
ZONE NUMBER The system will announce the Voice Descriptor for the selected zone number, if it is
programmed.
Press [✻] to continue. Starting with this zone number, the system will search for the first
transmitter that has all of the following attributes pre-programmed in ✻56 ENHANCED
ZONE PROGRAMMING:
a) The appropriate input type was selected in ✻56 (RF, UR, or BR programmed)
b) The appropriate loop number was selected in ✻56.
c) No serial number has been programmed
d) Zone type
If the first zone number entered does not have one or more of the above attributes, the
system will search its database for the first zone that does, and will display it at the

Enter 00 to exit. Prompt “83” blinks, indicating the mode is inactive.
Note: Two exceptions to the requirement above exist for keys. Four zone button type
devices (zone numbers 26, 30, 34, and 38) will be stopped only if there are no serial
numbers enrolled in all 4 zones of the key, regardless of the attributes that have been
entered. In addition, zone types are not required to be present. In this case, 1A,
Option 4 must be selected prior to “Learn”.

Enroll Mode
IA This prompt is used to enter, view or confirm a serial number. If “L” is displayed, the
ENROLL MODE serial number for this transmitter has already been entered; however, it may still be
confirmed, viewed or deleted.
Enter serial number - If the transmitter’s serial number has not been previously
entered, you may enter the enroll serial number mode (1A) by entering “1”.
Copy serial number - Enter “2” to copy the last serial number that was entered. A
serial number must be entered in order to be copied. If no serial is stored in the buffer
and a copy is attempted the panel will emit a long beep indicating an invalid operation.
View serial number - If the transmitter’s serial number has been previously entered,
you may, view the present serial number by entering “3”. If view is selected each digit
will be re-displayed, and the keypad will beep once for digits 1-6, and three times for the
last digit. Once the serial number has been entered by either selecting a “1” or a “2”, you
will return to this prompt with the “L” on the display. The serial number/loop number
combination that was entered can be confirmed by getting two transmissions (fault and
restore) from the RF or UR device or one transmission from the BR device. If a
transmission is received that matches the serial number and loop number entered, the
system will announce the Voice Descriptor for the loop followed by three beeps, and a “C”
will be displayed indicating that the received serial number and loop number trans-
mission has been confirmed to match. No further transmissions will be received. When
confirming a 4 button key, only the serial number is confirmed, since it assumed that all
loops are used. Pressing any key will allow a confirmation.
*Long beep indicates illegal entries, or duplicate serial number/loop entry*
When the last zone has been entered, the display will remain on that zone. To exit this
mode and return to data field program mode, enter 00 at the ZONE NUMBER prompt.
When all zones have been programmed, test each zone using the system’s Test mode. Do
not use the Transmitter ID Sniffer mode for this, since it will only check for transmission
of one zone on a particular transmitter, and not the zones assigned to each additional
loop.
For Zones 26-29, 30-33, 34-37, and 38-41 any loop can be used for RF enrollment. If
enrolling via RF, it will be confirmed without additional transmissions.
Notes:
(1) A valid template or key has 4 existing zones, each with a zone type, unique loop
number.
(2) Option 2 is not applicable for 4 button key zones 26-29, 30-33, 34-37, & 38-41.
(3) If the display automatically returns to "1A" rather than "1b" the configuration of the key is
not valid. At that point copy template, skip, or return are the only legal entries.
(4) If option 3 or 9 is selected, the serial number can be viewed or deleted but only if “L” is
displayed. If the “L” is not displayed the panel will emit a long beep.
(5) If option 4 is selected template acceptance is indicated by two beeps after copying. A
single long beep, emitted when copying indicates the template is not valid.
SELECTIONS
0 = advance to next zone to be enrolled
1 = enter now and proceed to SERIAL NUMBER prompt (1b). For 4 button keys (zones 26-
29, 30-33, 34-37, & 38-41) the serial number will be enrolled to all four buttons. If enrolling a
key, the panel will emit a long beep when entering a 1 to indicate that the present key set up
is invalid.
2 = copy the previous serial number entry from the buffer.
3 = view existing serial number.
4 = copy the 4 button key template that has been set in zone numbers 26-29 (all zone
parameters except serial numbers). (Only valid on zones 30-33, 34-37, & 38-41 that do not

Remote Programming/Control (Downloading)

General Information
The control panel can be remotely programmed from an IBM-compatible Personal Computer (PC), Compass
Downloader, a HAYES Modem or via a capable GSM or IP communications device.

UL Downloading may only be performed if a technician is at the site.

Multiple security levels protect remote programming against compromise by attempts to defeat the system.
1. Security Code Handshake: An 8-digit download ID code must be matched between the Control and
downloader.
2. Site-Initiated Remote Programming: The installer or subscriber initiates the call from the subscriber
premises by entering the Installer Code + # + 1, while the system is disarmed. All parameters can then be
downloaded via the phone lines using a personal computer.
3. Station-Initiated Remote Programming: The operator calls the site from your office to initiate the
download call. The Control hangs up and then calls back the PC via the preprogrammed telephone
number. The unit can then be uploaded, downloaded, or controlled from your office.
4. Telco Handoff: The installer or subscriber performs a download session on the call initiated from the
site or from local laptop computer by entering the Installer or Master Code + # + 1 at the control panel.
5. Data Encryption: Data passed between the PC and the Control is encrypted for security so that it is
very difficult for a foreign device tapped into the phone line to take over communication and substitute
system-compromising information.
Equipment required to download to a system at the premises
• An IBM PC compatible computer and appropriate interconnecting cables.
• Either a HAYES brand SMARTMODEM 1200 (Level 1.2 or higher external or Level 1.1 or higher [with 4
position DIP switch] internal style), a HAYES brand Optima 336 external, a HAYES brand Optima 24
Plus FAX96, or an Ademco CIA Modem or via a capable GSM or IP communications device.
• Compass Downloader for Windows (at revision level supporting Lynx Plus Series).
Initial Download: Enter Installer Code + # + 5. This sets field ✻95 to 4 rings, and system to “no call-back”
option. The download computer can then call the subscriber, make connection, and download all
programming data.
Flexible Callback: If enabled in field ✻93, the download operator can temporarily change the last 1, 2, or 3
digits (depending on selection) of the call back number. This allows the control to call back a computer other
than the one programmed, which may be helpful at times of high computer traffic. Refer to 93 Flexible
Callback programming field for additional information.
Remote Programming Information
If using Remote Programming, the Lynx Plus Series must be connected to the telephone line or to the
Internet, as applicable.

The downloading system can perform many functions when in communication with the Control. Besides
uploading and downloading, the status of the system can be observed and various commands can be
initiated, as follows:
• Arm the system in the away mode; disarm the system.
• Bypass a zone.
• Force the system to accept a new program download.
• Shut down communication functions (for nonpayment of monitoring fees in an owned system).
• Shut down all security system functions (for nonpayment for a leased system).
• Inhibit local keypad programming (prevents account takeover).
• Command the system to upload a copy of its resident program to the office.
• Set the time
• View/Modify
• X10/ Scheduling

Remote Programming/Control (Downloading)

• Read: arming status, AC power status, lists of faulted zones, bypassed zones, zones currently in alarm,
zones currently in trouble, and RF sensors with low battery conditions; read control’s time.
Notes: (1) After the control and the PC have established valid communication, the keypad will become inactive and will
display “CC Modem Comm.”
(2) The keypad will become active after the download communication is terminated.
(3) The detailed operation of the download functions is covered in the installation instructions for the Compass
Downloader for Windows.

Remote Programming Advisory Notes

• Keypad entries are ignored during the time interval stated above.
• A copy of the program downloaded may be printed using the IBM PC-compatible computer’s internal
report generator, when an optional printer is connected (consult your PC manual for proper printer and
connections).
• Program upload or download time is approximately one minute, fifteen seconds for a complete program.

System Operation
Keypad Operation
The keypad allows the user to arm and disarm the system, and perform other system functions, such as
bypassing zones. Zone and system conditions (ALARM, trouble, bypass) are displayed on the keypad. When
an alarm occurs, keypad sounding and external sounding will occur, and the zone(s) in alarm will be
displayed on the keypad. Pressing any key will silence the keypad sounder for 10 seconds (only once).
Disarming the system will silence both keypad and external sounders. When the system is disarmed, any
zones that were in an alarm condition during the armed period will be displayed (memory of alarm). To
clear this display, simply repeat the disarm sequence by entering the Security Code and pressing the OFF
key. The keypad also features chime annunciation, and 3 panic key pairs for silent, audible, fire or personal
emergency alarms. These keys can notify the central station of an alarm condition, if that service is
connected.

Panic Keys
There are three panic key pairs that, if programmed, can be used to manually initiate alarms and send a
report to the central station. Each can be individually programmed for 24-hour silent, audible, personal or
fire emergency responses. The panic function is activated when both keys of the appropriate key pair are
pressed at the same time. The panic functions are identified by the system as follows:
Keys Displayed as Zone
[1] & [✻] 95 Important: For the silent panic functions
to be of practical value, the system must be
[✻] & [#] 99 connected to a central station.
[3] & [#] 96

Security Codes
Installer Code
The installer programs the 4-digit Installer Code initially as part of the programming procedure. The
factory default Installer Code is 4-1-1-2, but may be changed in field ✻20. The Installer Code is the
only code that allows entry into Programming mode and also, in normal operation mode, is used to
enter the Master Code, which allows access to the normal functions of the system.
Master Code
In normal operation mode, the Installer Code is used to enter the 4-digit Master Security Code.
Enter/change the Master code by installer.
At the keypad enter: Installer Code + [CODE key] + [02] + desired 4-digit Master Code
Change the Master code by master user.
At the keypad enter: Current Master Code + [CODE key] + [02] + new Master Code + new Master Code
again
Secondary User Codes
In normal operation mode, the Master Security Code can be used to assign up to 6 secondary 4-digit security
codes, including a Babysitter Code and a Duress Code. The Master Code can also be used to remove
secondary codes from the system (individually).
Assign (or change) a secondary security code.
At the keypad enter: Master Code + [CODE key] + User # (03–08) + desired Secondary Code
The system will emit a single beep when each secondary code has been successfully entered.
Delete a secondary security code.
At the keypad enter: Master Code + [CODE key] + User # (03–08)

System Operation
Security Code Notes
• The Master and Secondary security codes permit access to the system for arming, disarming, etc.
• The Installer Code can disarm the system only if it was used to arm it. In addition, the Installer Code cannot
disarm the system if it was armed by pressing and holding a Quick-Arm button.
• The Babysitter Code (User Code No. 7) can disarm the system only if it was used to arm it. In addition, the
Babysitter Code cannot disarm the system if it was armed by pressing and holding a Quick-Arm button.
• Duress code (User Code No. 8) sends a special code to the monitoring station when used to perform any system
operation. Instruct users to be careful not to use this code for normal usage. If the duress code is programmed, you
must enter a report code for Zone 92 (duress).
• If a secondary code is inadvertently repeated for different users, the lower user number will take priority.
• Opening/closing reports are sent for the Installer Code as No. 01, with the appropriate subscriber number. Master
Code and set of secondary user codes are sent as Nos. 02 and 03–08, respectively, in Contact ID® format (with the
appropriate user number); in 4 + 2, it is 1–8. Quick arming (and open/close executed by downloader) is reported as
user 00.

“Follow Me” Reminder Feature

This feature allows the user to schedule a time driven message. When activated, the system will dial a phone
number that the installer programs in Field ✻46, and deliver a voice message (custom words 72, 73, and 74).
The Lynx Plus Series will immediately begin transmitting the voice message and will repeat the message for
45 seconds. Pressing any touch-tone key on the answering phone will acknowledge the message ending the
session and preventing the system from redialing the programmed number. Delivery of a reminder message
on the local Lynx Plus Series keypad will continue. If the message has timed out the system will redial the
programmed number a maximum of seven additional times or until it is acknowledged. Pressing any key on
the Lynx Plus Series keypad will terminate (acknowledge) both the follow me reminder and the local
reminder announcements.
Notes: (1) This feature is only supported if programmed in field ✻49.
(2) The follow me reminder will be terminated if any other event requires the system to dial out, or if an audible
alarm has occurred, however, delivery of the local schedule reminder message will continue.

“Follow Me” System Announcement Feature

This feature allows the Lynx Plus Series to deliver a voice system message to the secondary phone number
programmed by the installer. The Lynx Plus Series will first transmit reports to the Central Station and
after receiving its kiss-off the system will dial the secondary phone number and begin transmitting the voice
message. This message is a repeatable system status announcement. Like the Follow Me reminder, pressing
any key on the answering telephone or the local Lynx Plus Series keypad will terminate (acknowledge) the
message. The system will dial the secondary phone number a maximum of eight times. The Follow Me alarm
functions may be triggered by a variety of events depending upon the selections made during programming
in field ✻49.
Note: The follow me system announcement will be terminated if any other event requires the system to dial out or if an
audible alarm has occurred.

Remote Phone Control Feature

The remote phone control feature, which must be enabled in field ✻91, allows the user to access the security
system from any off-site touch-tone telephone. The control will pick up the incoming call, based on the ring
count specified in field ✻95, and will announce “SYSTEM ENTER CODE” every three (3) seconds for the
next eight (8) seconds. During this period the panel will wait for a valid User Code to be entered. If a valid
User Code is not entered or the eight (8) second period expires a modem tone will be generated for remote
programming (Compass Downloading). If a valid User Code has been entered, the control will announce the
current system status and/or beeping sounds. Refer to the User Guide for additional information regarding
this feature.

System Operation
UL Audio alarm verification has not been evaluated by UL.

Audio Alarm Verification (Two-Way Voice Feature)

This feature allows the central station operator to listen, talk to or conduct a two-way conversation with an
individual(s) at the premises. It also assists the operator in gathering information about the nature and
location of the alarm that may be helpful in responding to police and fire departments. All Lynx Plus Series
control panels are capable of supporting the Two-Way Voice feature. The Lynx Plus Series does not make
system announcements when the Two-Way voice feature is active.
Activation
Fire and CO alarms will not trigger an AAV session. A new Fire or CO alarm will end an AAV session that is
in progress.

The Lynx Plus Series sends the “alarm message” followed by a “Listen-in-to-Follow message” (Contact ID®
code 606) to the Central Station. The Listen-in-to-Follow message causes the Central Station’s digital
receiver to temporarily hold the phone line for approximately 1-minute. When the Lynx Plus Series receives
the “kissoff” from the central station, indicating that the alarm message has been received, the Two-Way
Voice (AAV) feature is activated in the (default) “Listen Mode” and sirens and keypad sounds are
discontinued. The Lynx Plus Series transmits a beep acknowledgment to the Central Station, once per
second. The beep alternates between two tones and indicates that the Lynx Plus Series is waiting for a
session command from the Central Station operator. Once a command is issued the beep acknowledgement
is discontinued, however, if a command is not issued within two minutes the system will “time out” and the
call will be terminated.

Operator Commands
The Central Station operator begins the session, which last 5 minutes, by entering one of the valid AAV
commands shown in the table below. The session may be extended 5 minutes, without changing the
operating mode, by pressing the [7] key on the touch-tone phone. Selecting another operating mode also
resets the session an additional 5 minutes. During the last minute of the 5 minute, session, the Lynx Plus
Series generates two beeps every 30 seconds to alert the Central Station operator that the session is about to
time out. The Central Station operator may then extend the session by pressing the [7] key on the touch-tone
phone. If the session is not extended the phone line is disconnected, and the session is ended. Sessions may
be ended at any time by pressing the [9] key on the touch-tone phone. The AAV modes are described as
follows:
Note: When entering AAV commands make sure the Central Station receiver has been disconnected from the
phone line, otherwise AAV commands may not go through.

Key Function
1 Talk Mode: Pressing the [1] key on the touch tone phone, enables one-way voice communication from the
central station to the violated premises, and allows the operator to talk communicate through the Lynx Plus
Series speaker. In this mode the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs blink alternately.

2 VOX (Voice) Mode: Pressing the [2] key on the touch-tone phone, enables two-way voice communications
between the central station and the violated premises. In this mode the ARMED (red) and READY (green)
LEDs blink alternately.

3 Listen Mode: Pressing the [3] key on the touch-tone phone, enables one-way audio from the violated premises
to the central station. The Listen Mode is the start up default mode of the voice feature and allows the
operator to listen through the Lynx Plus Series microphone. This mode does not affect the existing LED
pattern.

7 Extends the session 5 minutes without changing its operating mode.

9 Ends the session and disconnects the phone line.

Testing the System

Test Mode
After installation is completed, the security system should be carefully tested, as follows.
1. With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact. If the READY LED is not lit,
press the [ ✻] key to display the faulted zone(s). Restore faulted zone(s), if necessary, so that the
READY LED lights. Fault and restore every sensor individually to assure that it is being monitored by
the system.
2. Enter the security code and press the TEST key. The outside sounder will sound for 1 second. “Test
in Progress” will subsequently be displayed on the keypad. The control announces the zone’s voice
descriptor (if programmed) followed by 3 beeps, each time a contact is faulted. A test report should be
transmitted (if programmed) to the central station immediately. If the backup battery is discharged or
missing, the sounder may not turn on and a LOW BATTERY report will be transmitted with a TEST
report. The keypad will beep once every 45 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the Test mode.
3. To turn off the Test mode enter security code and press the OFF key.
Notes: (1) Triggering a zone set to Arm AWAY, Arm STAY, or Disarm will take the system out of Test and cause that
action.
(2) BR type transmitters do not display during Test mode (keypad beeps only)
(3) Macros cannot be run from the Test mode.
(4) Test mode automatically ends after 4 hours.
LynxSIA Plus ONLY
(5) During the final 5 minutes (after 3 hours 55 minutes of Test mode), “4 Hr End of Test” is displayed on the
keypad indicating that the end of Test mode is nearing.
(6) Upon termination of a test mode all faulted 24-hour zones are treated as a trouble zones.
(7) Fire verification is disabled when the system is in Test mode.

Armed System Test

Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following tests 1 and 2. Notify
them in advance that tests will be in progress.
1. Arm the system and fault one or more zones. After 15 seconds (if optional dialer delay is selected),
silence alarm sounder(s) by entering the code and pressing OFF. Check entry/exit delay zones.
2. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that are in the system by pressing the Panic key pairs. If the system
has been programmed for audible emergency, the keypad will emit a steady alarm sound, and
“ALARM” and zone number will be displayed. For Lynx Plus, silence the alarm by entering the
security code and pressing OFF. For LynxSIA Plus, silence the alarm by entering the security code.
If the system has been programmed for silent emergency, there will be no audible alarms or displays,
but a report will be sent to the central station.
3. If Powerline Carrier Devices have been installed, test their programmed action.
4. Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.
5. To test the wireless part of the system and the RF receiver, perform the two additional tests described
in the Installing Wireless Zones section: Sniffer mode and Go/No Go Test.
Note: System Test mode (installer/master code + test) and Go/No Go Test (installer code + # + 8) will be
automatically terminated after 3-1/2 to 4 hours if the installer or user does not manually terminate it. This
ensures that fire and panic zones will not remain disabled. However, Sniffer mode (installer code + # + 3) does
not automatically expire. You must manually exit (Installer/User Code + OFF) Sniffer mode to
return to normal operation.

TO THE INSTALLER
Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the installer and frequent testing by the user are vital to continuous satisfactory
operation of any alarm system.
The installer should assume the responsibility of developing and offering a regular maintenance program to the user as well as
acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the alarm system and its component parts. Recommendations must be
included for a specific program of frequent testing (at least weekly) to ensure the system’s proper operation at all times.

System Communication
This section provides an explanation of formats this system accommodates for reporting alarms and other
system conditions to the central station. The process of a successful transmission consists of both the
method of communication between the control panel and the central station receiver, and the actual way the
information is sent and displayed at the central station.

Communication Overview
When the panel calls the central station receiver, it waits to hear a “handshake” frequency from the receiver
to confirm that the receiver is on-line and ready to receive its message. Once the panel hears the handshake
it is programmed to listen for, it sends its message. The panel then waits for a “kissoff” frequency from the
receiver acknowledging that the message was received and understood.
If the handshake frequency is not given or is not understood by the panel, the panel will not send its
message. Once the handshake frequency is received and understood by the panel, the panel will send its
message. If there is an error in the transmission (the receiver does not receive a “valid” message), the kissoff
frequency will not be given by the central station receiver.
The panel will make eight attempts to the primary telephone number and eight attempts to the secondary
telephone number (if programmed) to get a valid message through. If the panel is not successful after its
numerous attempts, the keypad will display “FC Comm Failure.” If the secondary number is a pager, “FC
Comm Failure” displays after the first 8 attempts to the primary number.
The following chart defines the (handshake/kissoff) frequencies that the panel supports, and the different
formats that can be sent for each.
FORMAT HANDSHAKE TRANSMITS DATA KISSOFF TRANSMIT TIME
Low Speed 1400Hz 1900Hz (10PPS) 1400Hz Under 15 seconds
3+1, 4+1, 4+2 (Standard report)
Sescoa/Radionics 2300Hz 1900Hz (20PPS) 2300Hz Under 10 seconds
3+1, 4+1, 4+2 (Standard report)
Express 1400–2300Hz DTMF (10 cps) 1400Hz Under 3 seconds
4+2
Contact ID® 1400–2300Hz DTMF (10 cps) 1400Hz Under 3 seconds

Report Code Formats

3+1 and 4+1 Standard Formats Comprise a 3- (or 4-) digit subscriber number and a single digit report code (e.g.
alarm, trouble, restore, open, close, etc).
3+1 and 4+1 Expanded Formats Comprise a 3- (or 4-) digit subscriber number, and a 2-digit report code. The first
digit is displayed on the first line, followed by a second line where the first digit is
repeated 3 (or 4) times and followed by the second digit. This is the “expanded”
digit.
4+2 Format Comprises a 4-digit subscriber number and 2-digit report code.
ADEMCO Contact ID® Comprises a 4-digit subscriber number, 1-digit event qualifier
Reporting Format (“new” or “restore”), 3-digit event code, and 3-digit zone number, user number,
or system status number (see the following page)
The following table shows the message formats for 3+1, 4+1 and 4+2 reports, where:
SSS or SSSS = Subscriber ID C = Close Code (1st Digit)
A = Alarm Code (1st digit) U = User Number (in hex)
Z = Typically Zone Number* (2nd digit) G g = Test Code (1st & 2nd digits)
T t = Trouble Code (1st & 2nd digits) R = Alarm Restore Code
B b = Bypass Code (1st & 2nd digits) R T t = Trouble Restore Code (1st & 2nd digits)
E A C = AC Loss Code (1st & 2nd digits) R B b = Bypass Restore Code (1st & 2nd digits)
L L B = Low Battery Code (1st & 2nd digits) R A A C = AC Restore Code (1st & 2nd digits)
O = Open Code (1st Digit) R L L B = Battery Restore Code (1st & 2nd digits)
*Zone numbers for: [*] & [#] = 99; [1] + [*] = 95; [3] + [#] = 96; Duress = 92

WARNING
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
While this System is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary, fire or
other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a
variety of reasons. For example:
• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or
disconnect an alarm warning device.
• Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work
without power. Battery-operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put
in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the
signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not
activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may
not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not
sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of
closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector,
for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Finally, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke
detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by
carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable
materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson. Depending on the nature of the fire
and/or location of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to
allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their
installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams
of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect motion
or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows.
Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical
system can reduce their detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the
ambient temperature of the protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F (32° to 40°C), the detection
performance can decrease.
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the
other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices are located on a different level of the residence from the
bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not
hear the warning if the alarm is muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing
traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people.
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect
themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond
appropriately.
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to
last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This
alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly. The security keypad
(and remote keypad) should be tested as well.
Wireless transmitters (used in some systems) are designed to provide long battery life under normal operating conditions.
Longevity of batteries may be as much as 4 to 7 years, depending on the environment, usage, and the specific wireless device
being used. External factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as large swings in temperature, may all reduce
the actual battery life in a given installation. This wireless system, however, can identify a true low battery situation, thus
allowing time to arrange a change of battery to maintain protection for that given point within the system.
Installing an alarm system may make the owner eligible for a lower insurance rate, but an alarm system is not a substitute for
insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to
insure their lives and property.
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones
to learn about these developments.
