System Overview General Your Honeywell security system consists of a main control panel, at least one keypad, and various sensors strategically positioned throughout the premises. The system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. The keypad provides full control of system operation.
System Overview (cont’d) A Partitioned System Simply stated, a partitioned system shares one physical alarm system among different users, each with their own requirements. For the most part, you as a user need not know about other users and their structure in the system, but from time to time, you may see display messages that indicate the system is in use by another user.
System Overview (cont’d) NOTE: Cross Zoning and Swinger Suppression options can help reduce false alarms. Ask your installer if your system is programmed for either of these features. An Abort Window feature exists for all non-fire zones. All non-fire alarm reports are NOT transmitted to the central station if the code + off sequence is entered within the Abort Window time period.
System Overview (cont’d) Speed Key (Macros) The system can store a string of up to 32 keystrokes, which can be activated anytime by simply pressing the “A, B, C, or D” keys. This feature can be used to make it easy to perform multiple functions at once (such as going to another partition to bypass a zone), or it can be used to simplify an everyday, repeated procedure.
System Overview (cont’d) Self-Help Feature Abbreviated user's instructions are built into the system that can be easily viewed on the alpha keypad's message display screen. This feature will prove particularly useful if this manual is not conveniently accessible when you need to perform a system procedure with which you are not familiar.
About The Keypads General IMPORTANT: If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your absence. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a safe location nearby. NOTE: If you have a Touch Screen Keypad connected to your system, refer to the Touch Screen Keypad User Guide for operating instructions.

When on, any entry through a LED READY INDICATOR: (GREEN) Lit protected delay or perimeter zone while the indicates system is ready to be armed, system is disarmed will cause a tone to while unlit indicates system not ready.
Entry/Exit Delays General Information Your system has installer-programmed time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any arming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection.
Security Codes and Authority Levels General Information At the time of installation, you were assigned an authority level and a personal four-digit security code, known only to you and yours. The security code must be entered when arming and disarming the system. The authority level defines the system functions that you can perform.
Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d) Authority Levels Authority levels define the system functions a particular user can perform. Depending on the authority assigned to you, there are certain system functions you may be prohibited from performing. In summary, there are six authority levels, each having certain system restrictions as shown below.
Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d) General Rules on Authority Levels and Changes • A user may not delete or change the user code of the SAME or HIGHER authority than which he is assigned. • A user may only ADD users to a LOWER authority level. •...
Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d) To Add a User IMPORTANT: Temporary users should not be shown how to use any system function they do not need to know (e.g. bypassing protection zones). CODE 1. Enter Master or Manager code and press the key.
Page 19
Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d) If you as a user have access to other partitions, the MULTI-ACCESS ? keypad will prompt for ability of this new user to 0 = NO , 1 = YES access (GOTO) those partitions. Press 0 (NO) or 1 (YES).
Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d) To Change a User's Code CODE 1. Enter Master or Manager code and press the key + user number to be changed. 2. Enter the new code for that user. The system will recognize that the user number is ADD NEW USER? already in use and will prompt whether or not this 0 = NO , 1 = YES...
Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d) To Delete a User CODE 1. Enter Master or Manager code and press the key + user number to be deleted. 2. Enter Master or Manager code first entered. The system will recognize that the User number OK TO DELETE is already in use and will prompt to confirm that 0 = NO , 1 = YES...
Accessing Other Partitions To Access another Partition Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in other partitions by using the GOTO command.
Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d) Global Arming Notes: • When performing a Global Arm, if there are faults in any of the selected partitions, the system will enter a Summary Mode. Faulted zones in all the selected partitions will be displayed. These faults must be corrected or bypassed.
Page 24
Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d) The following is an example of what would be displayed for a fault condition on Zone 002 (Loading Dock Window) on Partition 1 (Warehouse) when logging on from a keypad on Partition 9: WHSE DISARMED HIT ∗ FOR FAULTS This is the normal display that appears at Partition 1's keypad(s).
Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d) Common Lobby Operation When an installation consists of a partition that is shared by users of other partitions in a building, the shared partition may be assigned as a “common lobby” partition for the system. An example of this might be in a medical building where there are two doctors and a common entrance area.
Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d) How User Codes Affect the Common Lobby Codes with “Global” Arming If your code is given “global arming” when it is defined, the system displays a prompt that allows you to pick and choose the partitions to be armed or disarmed.
Checking For Open Zones Using the ✳ ✳ ✳ ✳ READY Key Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows and other protection zones must be closed or bypassed (see BYPASSING section). Otherwise the keypad will display a "Not Ready" message. Using the READY key will display all zones that are faulted, making it easier for you to secure any open zones.
Displaying All Zone Descriptors Using the ✳ ✳ ✳ ✳ READY Key The Alpha Keypads can also display all the zone descriptors that are programmed in your system. The abbreviated instructions for the READY key will appear first, followed by the zone descriptors. Displaying all descriptors is useful when you need to know the zone number of a particular zone, as when bypassing zones.
Bypassing Protection Zones Using the 6 BYPASS Key This key is used when you want to arm your system with one or more zones intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed. All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed.
Bypassing Protection Zones (cont’d) Quick Bypass Your system allows you to easily bypass all open (faulted) zones without having to enter zone numbers individually. NOTE: All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed. To use the Quick Bypass feature: BYPASS 1.
Bypassing Protection Zones (cont’d) Group Bypass Your system allows you to easily bypass a group of zones without having to enter zone numbers individually. The system provides up to 15 groups. There is no limit to the number of zones that may be assigned to any one group. Check with your installer for a list of zones assigned to the group(s).
Bypassing Protection Zones (cont’d) Zones Remaining Bypassed After Disarming The system provides an option to allow all manually bypassed zones to remain bypassed upon disarming (security code + OFF) of the partition. This option must be programmed by your installer. Check with your installer to see if this option has been enabled.
Arming Perimeter Only (With Entry Delay ON) Using the 3 STAY key Use this key when you are staying home, but might expect someone to use the entrance door later. When armed in STAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the premises.
Arming Perimeter Only (With Entry Delay ON) (cont’d) Auto-STAY Arming Auto-stay allows the system to automatically bypass certain zones if upon arming none of the entry/exit zones are faulted during the exit delay time (no one exits the premises). The system provides an option to set each burglary zone for Auto-stay.
Arming Perimeter Only (With Entry Delay OFF) Using the 7 INSTANT Key Important: If you are using a Graphic/Touch-Screen Keypad, NIGHT mode is the same as INSTANT. Use this key when you are staying home and do not expect anyone to use the entrance door.
Arming All Protection (With Entry Delay ON) Using the 2 AWAY Key Use this key when no one will be staying on the premises. When armed in AWAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, or if any movement is detected inside the premises. You may leave through the entrance door during the exit delay period without causing an alarm.
Arming All Protection (With Entry Delay OFF) Using the 4 MAXIMUM Key Use this key when the premises will be vacant for extended periods of time such as vacations, etc., or when no one will be moving through protected interior areas. When armed in MAXIMUM mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, or if any movement is detected inside the premises.
Quick Exit Using the # + 9 Keys The Quick Exit feature allows you to exit the armed partition without having to disarm and then rearm the partition. To Quick Exit the premises: 1. Press the # key and then press the 9 key. 2.
Disarming and Silencing Alarms Using the 1 OFF Key The OFF key is used to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. See "SUMMARY OF AUDIBLE NOTIFICATION" section for information which will help you to distinguish between FIRE and BURGLARY alarm sounds.
Using the Keyswitch General Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming and disarming a partition. A red and green light on the keyswitch plate indicate the status of your system as follows: Green Light: Lights when the system is disarmed and ready to be armed (no open zones).
Chime Mode Using the 9 Key Your system can be set to alert you to the opening of a door or window while it is disarmed by using CHIME mode. When activated, three tones will sound at the Keypad whenever a protected perimeter door or window is opened, and the Not Ready message will be displayed.
Viewing Alarm Company Messages General Information Users of the system may periodically receive messages on their display screens from their monitoring agency or installer. When a message is waiting to be viewed, the message shown below will appear. MESSAGE. PRESS 0 FOR 5 SECS.
Panic Keys (For Manually Activating Silent and/Or Audible Alarms) Using Panic Keys Your system may have been programmed to use special key combinations to manually activate panic functions. The functions that might be programmed are Silent Emergency, Audible Emergency, Personal Emergency, and Fire. See your installer for the function(s) that may have been programmed for your system.
Speed Key (Macros) General Information The “A”, “B”, “C”, and/or “D” keys can be used to activate a string of commands up to 32 keystrokes each. These commands are known as a macro and are stored in the system’s memory. Typical Speed Key functions include: •...
Speed Key (Macros) (cont’d) key is unnecessary. The system interprets the use of the # key in a Speed Key sequence as its designated function only. Executing To execute a Speed Key sequence, do the following: If a lettered key, A-B-C has been assigned as a Speed Key, press and hold down the appropriate key (about 2 seconds).
Access Door Control General Information Your system may be set up such that a locked access door (such as in a lobby) can be unlocked momentarily or for a specific period of time, using a keypad command. Ask your installer if this has been done in our system. Executing There are several entries that can be entered at the keypad to activate this command:...
Using #70 Relay Menu Mode General Information Your system may be set up so that certain lights or other devices can be turned on or off by using the #70 command from either a keypad or a telephone keypad (if 4286 VIP module is used). Ask your installer if this has been done in your system.
Using Schedules Delaying the Closing Time Your system's programmed schedules may automatically arm the system at a predetermined time. In the event a user must stay on the premises later than usual, users with master or manager authority levels can manually delay the automatic arming (closing) time up to 2 hours.
Using Schedules (cont’d) Programming Temporary Schedules Temporary schedules only affect the partition from which it is entered. Temporary schedules can be reused at later dates simply by scrolling (by pressing #) to the DAYS? prompt (described below) and activating the appropriate days.
Page 50
Using Schedules (cont’d) This is the prompt that actually activates the DAYS ? MTWTFSS temporary schedule, and allows the temporary HIT 0-7 X X schedule to be customized to a particular week's needs. To select the days which are to be activated, enter the desired number 1-7 (Monday = 1).
Programming Device Timers General Information Device timers consist of an ON time & an OFF time, and selected days of the week in which they are active. There are up to 20 timers that can be used to control various devices, such as lights or appliances. Your installer will have programmed the appropriate devices into the system (up to 96 devices can be programmed).
