What To Do When You Come Home
If you enter your home while the system is armed in the Day, Night Delay, Away, or Vacation mode using an entry door:
• The console beeper comes on and beeps 4 times per second.
• The console display indicates: " *** DISARM SYSTEM *** - PRESS OFF THEN CODE"
• Any lights or control modules programmed to come on for the door that you used will do so.
• The system will wait the Entry Delay time.
You should go to your console and immediately disarm the security system. Upon entering the first digit of the user code, the
console beeper is silenced. If canceled, or an incorrect code is entered, the beeper is restarted. If you wish, you may go directly
to a different security mode, rather than disarming the system.
If you return home and hear the alarm sounding, DO NOT ENTER. Use a wireless phone or neighbor's phone to call for help.
What Happens When the Alarm is Activated
Burglar Alarm Activated
If someone enters through any zone other than an
Entry-Exit zone, if the security system is in the Night or Day Instant mode, or
if the security system is not turned off during the
Entry Delay:
•
The sounder is activated, which makes a loud, continuous sound.
• The display shows the type of alarm and the zones that have been tripped:
"BURGLAR ALARM! - ZONE NAME TRIPPED".
If more than one zone is tripped, then the bottom line will show each zone tripped for two seconds.
• The When Alarm macro is activated. Any units programmed to come on will do so.
• The Flash For Alarm Unit Number begins to flash on and off.
• The system waits the Outside Siren Delay (0 - 60 seconds), then activates the sounder.
• If enabled, the system waits the Dial Out Delay (15-45 seconds), and then if programmed, the in-house phones are
seized (disconnected) and the OmniLT begins to dial out.
If you are having your system monitored by a central station, the central station will be sent a code representing the type of alarm
(burglary) and zone involved. In most cases, the central station will call back, requesting your password or passcode.
If you are not using central station monitoring but are using the voice dial out capability, the system looks at the Dial Order to
determine which number to call first, and calls that number.
If you are using both central station monitoring and voice dial out, then the voice dial out is delayed by five minutes to give the
central station time to call you back.
For more information on the digital and voice dialer - See Digital Dialer and Voice Dialer.
• The system continues to sound all alarms and sirens, and flash the light(s) for the 6-30 minute Alarm Reset window.
• After Alarm Reset window has expired, the sounders are turned off, and the alarm system is reset. The console beeper
stays on. If a zone is tripped after a reset, the alarm will again be activated, and the dialer will again dial out.
At any time, the alarm system can be turned off at the console.
