Chapter 2 15 Using the control panel Latchkey Use the latchkey feature to notify you, via a remote phone, if a family member does not arrive home at a predetermined time and disarm the system. When this feature is active, a latchkey alarm is reported if the premises are not disarmed by the programmed latchkey time. For example, if you set the Latchkey time for 3:00 p.m. and the system is not disarmed by that time a message is sent to your remote phone. The latchkey feature can be activated during arming if a latchkey time is programmed. To activate the latchkey feature: 1. Press MOTIONS twice. If a code is required, enter your code after the first press of the MOTIONS button, then press MOTIONS a second time. 2. The panel MOTIONS light will blink and the exit delay will begin. Note: This feature is not verified for use by UL. System status Press STATUS (no code is required) to cause the system to display and speak the following types of information: • Alarm conditions • Alarm history • Trouble conditions • Open sensors • Bypassed sensors The STATUS button blinks when an active alarm exists. The STATUS button is lit when an abnormal condition such as a trouble or open sensor exists in the system. You can clear certain status entries from the system (such as old alarm history) by pressing DISARM after checking the status.
