false alarm prevention circuitry
Your system has false alarm prevention circuity. It prevents annoying
repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environ-
mental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.
Example
If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and each
time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, The system will inter-
pret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, The system
ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other sen-
sors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.
If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being
bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that
a sensor that continually triggers will remain bypassed.
Doors are covered by system differently; if the alarm is triggered by an open
door for three full cycles, the doors will be bypassed until the trigger ceases.
See Programming Options section of this guide for false alarm
circuitry programming.
nnoottee::
Arming and disarming the system does not reset this func-
tion.The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for it to not
trigger for 60 minutes, or to turn on the ignition. If testing your
system, it is important to remember that the false alarm pre-
vention circuitry programming can cause zones to be
bypassed and appear to stop working. If five chirps are heard
when disarming, false alarm prevention circuitry has been
engaged. If you wish to clear the false alarm prevention cir-
cuitry memory, turn the ignition key on.
