LCD KEYPAD LAYOUT

LCD Keypad Layout (contd)

1 DISPLAY AREA

Two line by sixteen-character liquid crystal display. This area contains the current system status using easy to read English language descriptions programmed by your installer.

2 ARM/DISARM INDICATOR

This light indicates whether the system is currently armed (activated) or disarmed (deactivated). In addition to this constant visual indication, the display area will provide additional information concerning the current system status. This indicator will blink when an alarm has occurred.

3 STAY

The STAY key is used to activate (arm) the system with the exception of interior protection. This will provide exterior protection of your location while allowing full access through the premise. This mode would be used when arming the system and you might be walking through protected interior zones.

4 BYPASS

The BYPASS key will be used to temporarily turn off protection to a portion of your Security System. This could be performed, for example, to ignore an open window that would prevent the arming of your system. Certain zones such as FIRE detection zones are always active and cannot be bypassed.

2 COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE

If the COM light BLINKS then there has been a communications error with the Central Station.

3 LOW BATTERY

If the BAT indicator BLINKS then the backup battery within the system is low.

4 STAY

The STAY light will be ON when the system has been armed in the stay mode, which means that the system has been activated with the exception of interior zones.
The INS indicator will be ON when the system has been armed in the INSTANT mode. This means that the system has been activated and the entry delay has been eliminated.

6 READY INDICATOR

The light marked RDY shows whether the system is ready to be armed. If the light is off then a condition exists within at least one of the zones preventing system arming.

7 ARM/DISARM INDICATOR

This light indicates whether the system is currently ARMED (ON) or DISARMED (OFF). In addition to this constant visual indication, the zone indicator lights will provide additional information concerning the current zone status. This light will also blink if there is an alarm condition present.

8 STAY

The STAY key is used to activate (arm) the system with the exception of interior protection. This will provide exterior protection of your location while allowing full access through the location. This mode would be used when arming the system and you might be walking through protected interior zones.

9 BYPASS

The BYPASS key will be used to temporarily turn off protection of a portion of your burglary protection. This could be performed, for example, to ignore an open window that would prevent the arming of your system.

10 INSTANT

The INSTANT key is used to activate (arm) the system and eliminates the entry delay. This would cause an immediate alarm if someone came through an exit/entry zone.

11 CODE

Function key used when entering or changing the User access codes of your system.

12 PULL OPEN DOOR

The front of the XK-716 keypad contains a door that pulls open. Behind this door is a card which can be filled out to describe the areas protected (zones) of your Security System.

13 AC INDICATOR

This light indicates that AC power is connected to the Security System. Battery backup exists to operate the system in the event of a power failure.

14 NUMERICAL SECTION

The numerical section of the keypad operates similar to a telephone or calculator. The digits 0 - 9, # and G are clearly marked and are used to enter commands to the Security System.

15 EMERGENCY KEYS

System Operation

can stay in your location and walk freely through the living section of your location and have certain portions of the interior protection active in the rest of your home. To auto stay arm simply enter your user code [USER] and remain within the location (do not leave through the exit/entry door). This will arm the system and only bypass those interior zones selected by your installer. LCD keypads will contain the following display:

ON: AUTO STAY.

Instant
The INSTANT mode arms the system and eliminates the entry and exit time delay intervals. If anyone enters or exits through an entry/exit zone the alarm system will instantly activate. The system must be READY to select the INSTANT option.

Instant Procedure

Instant [USER]
Depress the INSTANT key followed by your user code. Note: The INSTANT option will automatically be reset after the system is disarmed.
Upon successful INSTANT ARMING of the system the ARMED indicator will be lit and the following display appears:

ON: AWAY INSTANT

Upon successful INSTANT arming of the system the ARMED and INSTANT indicators will be lit.

Instant Stay

The INSTANT STAY mode will arm the system with the characteristics of both the INSTANT and STAY modes. The system will be armed with the interior portions bypassed and the entry delay will be suspended. The system must be READY in order to enter this mode.

Instant Stay Procedure

INSTANT STAY [USER] or STAY INSTANT [USER] Depress the INSTANT and STAY keys in any order followed by your user code.
Indications LCD Keypads ON: STAY INSTANT
After a successful INSTANT STAY arming the ARMED, STAY and INSTANT indicators will be lit.

Bypass

Bypasses are performed to eliminate burglary zones that are not ready or faulty from activating the Security System.

Bypass Procedure

BYPASS [USER] ZN Depress the BYPASS key followed by your user code and the three digit zone number (000 - 072) to be bypassed. The zone number to be bypassed is shown as ZN. For example, if your user code is 7356 and you want to bypass zone 16 enter: BYPASS 6 Press the bypass key followed by (your user code), and 6 (desired zone to be bypassed). Multiple zones may be bypassed by repeating the sequence for the desired zones within a fifteen-second time period as follows: EXAMPLE: BYPASS [USER] 002 BYPASS 056 BYPASS 071 The sequence displayed above would have bypassed zones 2, 56 and 71. Zones can be bypassed if the user performing the bypass is authorized to perform bypasses and the zone has been defined by your installer as bypassable. If the zone has already been bypassed, the sequence will unbypass the zone except if the system is armed and the unbypassed zone is still not ready. Unbypass means that the zone returns as an active burglary zone. After the bypass (or unbypass) command has been accepted the unit will emit a continuous beep and keypads will display the bypassed zones as follows:

Bypass (contd)

LCD Keypads BYPASSED Zne 002 Upstairs Bedroom
UNBYPASS Zne 002 Upstairs Bedroom
On LED keypads the zone number bypassed will blink slowly in a low intensity. Note: This only applies to the first 16 zones on LED keypads.

Immediately Arm

To immediately ARM the system enter [USER] after the last zone bypass. NOTE: Zones that are bypassed are not protected when the system is armed.

Forced Arming

Forced Arming is a method that will automatically bypass all faulted zones and ARM the system. NOTE: This capability must be selected by your installer at the time of system installation.

Forced Arming Procedure

BYPASS [USER] BYPASS Depress the BYPASS key followed by your user code and the BYPASS key. If any of the zones currently faulted are not bypassable, then the command will not succeed, and a long interrupted beep will follow. Following a successful forced arming the ARMED indicator will be lit and the ON:AWAY display will appear on LCD keypads. NOTE: This feature is NOT enabled for UL applications.

Unbypass

The UNBYPASS function removes an existing bypass from a currently bypassed zone. The procedure is similar to a bypass.

Unbypass Procedure

BYPASS [USER] ZN To remove a bypass from a zone already bypassed press the BYPASS key, followed by your user code and the three digit zone number. See bypass description. NOTE: In UL Listed systems, bypasses are automatically removed upon disarming.

Group Bypass (Optional)

Your installer can designate multiple zones within your location to be known as a group. For example, if your location has two floors, the zones on the upper level can be a separate group from the lower level. Each zone within the group will display an individual zone identification on the keypad, however there are commands to bypass the entire group at once. Consult with your installer to determine whether groups exist within your location.

Group Bypass Procedure

BYPASS [USER] G 1 Group Press the BYPASS key, followed by your user code, the digits G 1, and the group number (01 - 24) as designated by your installer. Example: Perform a group bypass on group 3 (assume a user code of 2468) BYPASS G 3 The system will bypass all of the zones within that group, and the keypad will display the bypassed zones as described in the BYPASS section. Remember that zones bypassed are not protected when the system is armed.

Group Unbypass

To remove bypasses from all of the zones within a group, the group unbypass command can be performed. This will remove the bypasses from all of the zones within a group. See group bypass section for more details.

Group Unbypass Procedure

BYPASS [USER] G 2 Group Press the BYPASS key, followed by your user code, the digits G 2, and the group number (01 - 24) as designated by your installer. Example: Perform a group unbypass on group 3 (assume a user code of 2468): BYPASS G 3

NOTE: The keypad conditions are active 24 hours a day, whether the system is armed or disarmed.

Duress

The Security System contains capability to transmit a DURESS (or AMBUSH) signal to the Central Station. The DURESS capability is meant to be used as an emergency condition if you are forced to disarm the system. When used, the DURESS capability will transmit a special emergency signal to the Central Station. Upon entry of the duress code, the system will disarm in a normal fashion and optionally transmit the duress signal to the Central Station. NOTE: The DURESS capability is only available if activated by your installer. Please contact your installer to determine whether duress has been activated and the method used. The DURESS capability must be enabled by your installer and can be defined by creating a user code with an authorization level of 6. Special care should be exercised when defining a user code as ambush since use of this code to arm/disarm the system will transmit a special code to the Central Station.

Quick Commands

In addition to the functions already described, the Security System also contains some quick commands which can be initiated through depression of the # key followed by the numbers 0 through 7. Please ask your installer to explain which of the QUICK commands are applicable to your system. The QUICK Commands are summarized below: COMMAND DESCRIPTION #0 #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 Common Partition Display Quick Arming Quick Forced Arm Time Set Zone Directory G Quick Bypassing Chime Mode User Partition Assignment G

G LCD Keypads Only

Common Partition Display [# 0]
The Security System can be configured to appear as multiple separate security systems. Each subgroup is known as a partition and authorized users can be valid in different partitions. For example, your home may be partitioned into one partition for the main living area and another partition for an apartment. Each partition would contain its own zones and keypads and would normally be operated independently. The Common Partition Display mode allows authorized users to perform functions from any keypad within the entire system. To enter the Common Partition Display mode enter # 0 and a valid User code. The user code must be valid and will only be able to perform the functions authorized for that user. LCD keypads will display:

Quick Commands (contd)

ENTER Part (0 - 9) # View, G Exit
Next enter the partition that you wish to operate. Entry of 1 - 8 will return with the keypad displaying the status of the requested partition. At this point you can perform any of the regular keypad functions, within your authorization level, for the requested partition. In addition to the normal partition requests (1 - 8) the following special functions are available:

Arm All Partitions (0)

To arm all of the partitions that you are authorized enter a 0 into the partition request. This function will arm all of the partitions in the AWAY mode from the single keypad. A message "ALL SYSTEMS ARMED AND SECURED" will appear to confirm the arming. If any of the partitions are NOT READY, then the partitions that are NOT READY will display one at a time on the keypad. Upon viewing the partitions, which are not ready, you may take the appropriate action to make the zones ready (or force arm the partition).

View Mode (#)

The View mode allows an authorized user to view the armed status of all partitions through the keypad. Simply enter a # from the partition selection display and the keypad will display the armed status for all active partitions that the user has been authorized. A typical LCD keypad display may appear as:

SYSTEM STATUS ARMED 12 8

On LED keypads, the partitions that are disarmed illuminate LEDs 916 and partitions that are armed illuminate LEDs 1-8. The Bat, Stay, Rdy, Com, and Ins LEDs perform their normal function.
Disarm All Partitions (9)
To disarm all partitions from a single keypad enter 9 into the partition selection display. This command will disarm all partitions where that user is authorized that are currently armed. NOTE: The keypad will return to the original partition after approximately 20 seconds.

Quick Arming [# 1]

Depression of the # key followed by the digit 1 will ARM the system without the need for entry of a user code. This is known as QUICK ARMING and will arm the system in the AWAY mode. This is identical to the ARMING command previously described. NOTE: You will still be required to enter a user code to disarm the system.
Quick Forced Arming [# 2]
You may also FORCE ARM the system, which will arm the system and bypass any burglary zones which are not ready, without entry of a user code. Simply press the # key followed by the digit 2.

Time Set [# 3]

The Security System contains a built in system time clock. The clock can be set as follows: 1) Press # 3 Enter # 3 If partition auto arming is enabled, the system will display the following message. If auto arming is not enabled, advance to step 2).

For example to bypass zone 13 enter # 1 3. This function must be enabled by your installer and is only applicable for certain zones. NOTE: The quick bypass option must be enabled by your installer.

Chime Mode [# 6]

The Security System contains an optional chime mode which causes the keypad sounder to activate for one second every time selected zones such as an entrance door are opened while the system is disarmed. For example, this could inform you each time that the front door was opened while you were home. To activate the chime feature
Press # 6 then 0 to turn the chime mode on or off. The LCD display shows the current CHIME status as follows:
CHIME is now ON 0 = OFF, G = exit
In this example entry of a 0 will turn the system chime mode off, or the G key will exit from the function.

Partition Assignment [# 7]
The Security System has the ability to be broken into separate independent subsystems known as partitions. Each user code can be valid in more than one partition. For example, an apartment manager may have access to all of the apartments. The partition assignment function allows authorized users (level 1 & 2) to change the partition access of the various user codes. Note: A level 1 user will be able to change the partition assignment for users within all partitions, while a level 2 user can only change partition assignments within the partitions that they are permitted access. To enter the partition access section enter # 7 and your user code. Note: The user must have an authorization level of 1 or 2 in order to access this function. XL-4

This display allows assignment or removal of users from each of the 8 partitions. The first line displays the user being modified (displayed as xxx). The second line shows the partitions where the user is currently
active. For example, if the keypad shows then the user is active in partitions 4 and 5. To add (or remove) partitions from the user profile simply enter the partition number. The display will reflect the entered value. Upon completion press the G key.

Glossary

The following terminology will be helpful in operating your Security System.

Arm/Disarm

ARMING indicates that the burglary portion of your Security System has been turned on. DISARMED indicates that the burglary portion has been turned off. The FIRE protection and emergency portions, if present in your system, remain active at all times.
Allows certain burglary zones to be disarmed while the remainder of the system remains armed. For example, a bypass would allow you to arm your system while a window is still open.

Central Station

Your Security System has built in capability to transmit alarm and emergency signals over your telephone line to a Central Station. The Central Station processes the signals from your system and takes the appropriate action. If your Security System has been connected to a Central Station please contact your Installing Company for further information.

Control Panel

The control panel is the brain of the Security System. All of the protected areas and keypads are connected to the control panel, which is contained in a metal enclosure and generally mounted in a hidden secure location by your installer.

Entry/Exit Delay

Certain protected points of your location can be designated as entry/exit zones. Delay times have been programmed into your system allowing sufficient time to walk through your front door when activating (ARMING) or deactivating (DISARMING) your Security System.

Glossary (contd)

Method of activating the Security System that eliminates the entry and exit time delays. This arming mode will INSTANTLY activate when any burglary zone is violated. The INSTANT mode will generally be used when the system is activated and all occupants are home.

Interior

Protection supplied to the interior sections of your home. Generally, interior zones will be equipped with motion sensing devices that detect an intruder as they enter the protected area. Interior zones will be deactivated in the STAY mode, allowing you and your family to walk through your home without activating the Security System.

Keypad

Station used to perform arming, disarming and other control functions to the Security System. The keypad will display the current system status and appears similar to a touch tone telephone. Your Security System can contain more than one keypad.

Partition

The Security System can be segmented into independent subsystems known as partitions. Each partition will have specified keypads and zones associated with the subsystems. Certain user codes may be valid in more than one partition.
Arms the Security System when you and your family are home. In the STAY mode, any interior protection will be disabled, allowing your family to walk freely throughout your home without activating the Security System.

User Code

User codes are used to identify authorized users of the Security System. The codes are required to perform functions to your system. The user codes can be changed at any time, through the keypad, by an
authorized user. In addition, different levels of users can be defined to restrict functionality within your protected location.
Indicates a protected area of your home.
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.

CLOSED DOOR GARAGE

BASEMENT

Recommendations For Proper Protection (contd)
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.
Recommendations For Proper Intrusion Protection
For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or commercial 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 so that alarm signals can still 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).

Statements Problems Warnings
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) STATEMENT This equipment has been tested to FCC requirements and has been found acceptable for use. The FCC requires the following statement for your information. This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: If using an indoor antenna, have a quality outdoor antenna installed. Reorient the receiving antenna until interference is reduced or eliminated. Move the radio or television receiver away from the control/ communicator. Move the antenna leads away from any wire runs to the control/communicator. Plug the control/communicator into a different outlet so that it and the radio or television receiver are on different branch circuits. If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user or installer may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful: "Interference Handbook". This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. Stock No. 004-000-00450-7.

radio, air conditioner or other appliances, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers. 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 20 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 are working properly. Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, 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.

IN NO CASE SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR UPON ANY OTHER BASIS OF LIABILITY WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER'S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT. Some states do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. Seller does not represent that the product may not be compromised or circumvented; that the product will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or that the product will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. Buyer understands that a properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of a burglary, robbery, or fire or other events occurring without providing an alarm, but it is not insurance or a guarantee that such will not occur or that there will be no personal injury or property loss as a result. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. HOWEVER, IF SELLER IS HELD LIABLE, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF CAUSE OR ORIGIN, SELLER'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT, WHICH SHALL BE THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLER. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. No increase or alteration, written or verbal, of the obligations of this Limited Warranty is authorized.

SUMMARY: The IS2500SN uses a fresnel lens (versus mirror on 427x) and is slightly taller than the 427x and 998MX PIRs. Nevertheless, its superior range, performance, versatility, styling and family look make the IS2500SN a viable alternative to any of the 427x and 998MX PIRs.
