Chimes

Use the

Chime

feature to signal when a protected door is opened while the system is disarmed. The panel

chimes twice when a chime sensor is tripped, if the chime mode is enabled. This feature allows you to be

notified when family members are going in and out of your home. The

Chime

and

Special chime

features are

turned on or off in the system menu. See

Chime

on page 29 and

Special chime

on page 30.

Note:

If there are no chime sensors in your system, the

Chime

option will not appear in the

System

menu.

Voice chime

Your installer may have programmed the system to speak the sensor name or make a custom chime sound

when a chime sensor is tripped. The chime sound, if programmed, will be played in place of the standard chime

beeps.

Special chime

Special chime allows you to install motion sensors in a patio or at the front door, and be notified when someone

is approaching those areas. These motion sensors are not used for intrusion protection. The panel will chime

three times, if the special chime mode is enabled.

Note:

If there are no special chime sensors in your system, the

Special chime

option will not appear in the

System

menu.
