KEYPAD CONTROL TONES (BEEPS) A sounder is built into the keypad and may sound for any of the following reasons: Beeps for all keypresses. Sounds a continuous tone during the Entry delay time. Pulses when a day zone is violated while the system is disarmed. Pulses when a FIRE zone has a trouble condition. Pulses when the armed status changes and the AC power is off. Beeps 3 times for trying to arm with the "READY" light off, if "FORCE ARMING" has not been selected. Beeps 1 second for the 'CHIME" feature. Beeps 1 second at the end of the exit delay. Beeps to indicate telephone line fault if selected. Beeps during an exit delay; beeps rapidly for the last 10 seconds of an exit delay; and beeps 1 second at the end of the exit delay. Pulses when one or more of the following conditions are detected: Zone or Box Tamper, Low Battery, AC Power Fail, or Expander trouble. Beeps 3 times every minute indicating a low battery or missing transmitter is detected (if wireless device is in system). Entering code will suppress the sounder for 12 hours. Entering a valid code will silence the keypad sounder when it is pulsing. The arm/disarm state of your system will not change when entering a code to silence a pulsing keypad sounder. Please contact your installer if a trouble condition exists. 22 NX-148E-CF
