Canceling and preventing accidental alarms One of the biggest concerns you might have regarding your security system is causing an accidental alarm. Most accidental alarms occur when leaving the residence after arming the system or before disarming the system upon your return. There is a communicator delay (dialer delay) of 30 seconds programmed into this panel. The panel will delay 30 seconds before dialing the central monitoring station remote phone to send reports. You can have your installer program this delay time between 0 and 254 seconds. To cancel an accidental alarm before the programmed dialer delay time expires, enter your access code. The system will display Alarm Cancel and sound beeps. Guidelines for preventing accidental alarms Use the following guidelines to prevent accidental alarms. • Close doors and windows before you leave your house. • Gather your belongings, so you can exit immediately after arming the system. • Always enter and exit within the programmed delay times. • Make sure you leave through a door that has a delay time set for it. • Disarm your system immediately upon returning home. • Be aware of the devices in your security system and learn how each one operates. • If you have pets, ask your installer if you need pet lenses in your motion detectors. • Check the location of your smoke detectors. Smoke detectors near bathrooms and kitchens can be tripped by steam and smoke from cooking. • Make a note of the display, system beeps, and indicator lights that indicate the current system status.
