System Overview  
Introduction  
Congratulations on your ownership of a Honeywell Security System. You've made a  
wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection  
technology today. This system provides:  
Three forms of protection: burglary, fire* and emergency  
At least one keypad which provides control of system and displays system status  
Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary protection  
Smoke or combustion detectors* designed to provide early warning in case of fire.  
Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status  
messages to a Central Monitoring Station.  
* Commercial installations and some residential systems may not include fire  
protection – check with your installer.  
NOTE: Features and procedures described in this manual apply to the  
VISTA-21iP/VISTA-21iPSIA security systems. Differences are noted where  
applicable.  
System Basics  
Burglary Protection  
Several modes of burglary protection: Stay, Night-Stay, Away, Instant, Maximum.  
STAY: arms perimeter zones only and entry delay is on  
INSTANT: same as STAY, except entry delay is off  
NIGHT-STAY: arms perimeter zones and selected interior zones; entry delay on  
AWAY: arms perimeter and all interior zones, entry delay is on  
MAXIMUM: same as AWAY, except entry delay is off  
You can BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the system armed.  
CHIME mode alerts you to the opening of protected doors and windows while the  
system is disarmed.  
Fire Protection and Carbon Monoxide Protection  
Fire and carbon monoxide protection is always active (if installed) and an alarm  
sounds if a fire or carbon monoxide condition is detected.  
If necessary, you can manually initiate a fire alarm using the keypad (if  
programmed).  
Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for information regarding fire protection,  
carbon monoxide protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes.  
Security Codes  
You were assigned a 4-digit security code (master code) during installation.  
Use your security code when arming and disarming the system, and when  
performing other system functions.  
Other users can be assigned different security codes, each with different  
authority levels, which define the system functions a particular user can perform.  
5 –  
 
System Overview (cont’d)  
Zones and Partitions  
The system sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones,” which are  
specific areas of protection (e.g., front door, kitchen window, etc.).  
Zone numbers are displayed at the keypad when an alarm or trouble condition  
occurs on a sensor.  
Partitions provide two independent areas of protection, with each partition  
containing a group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without affecting  
other zones or users.  
Partitioned systems can include a common zone area, which is an area shared by  
users of both partitions (such as a lobby in a building).  
Arming, Step-Arming and Disarming Burglary Protection  
The system must be armed before the burglary protection can sense intrusions.  
To arm your system, enter your user code followed by the desired arming key.  
If programmed, you can press the [#] key in place of your security code when  
arming the system (e.g., instead of entering your 4-digit security code + [3-STAY]  
to arm the system in STAY mode, you can press [#] + [3-STAY]).  
You can also use the step-arming feature if programmed, to arm the system. This  
is a function key that allows you to arm the system in one of three modes by  
simply pressing the key repeatedly.  
To disarm the system, enter your security code then press the [OFF] key.  
Alarms  
When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders sound, and the  
keypad displays the zone(s) causing the alarm. For most alarms, the external  
sounder also sounds.  
If your system is connected to a Central Monitoring Station, an alarm message is  
also sent. (Delayed Reporting Note: Message reporting is delayed 30 seconds  
by default to reduce false alarms. If desired, this delay can be removed or can be  
increased to 45 seconds. See your installer if you want the delay time changed.)  
To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.  
Memory of Alarm  
When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the  
zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm.  
The message remains displayed even after disarming the system, but can be  
cleared with another “off” sequence.  
Phone Access  
If included, a phone module permits you to access the system via a touch-tone  
phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away.  
When you call in, the phone module announces system status over the telephone,  
and you can arm/disarm the system and perform most function commands  
remotely using the telephone keys.  
Complete information for using these features is provided with the voice module.

System Overview (cont’d)  
Function Keys  
The “A,” “B,” “C,” and “D” keys can be programmed to perform various functions.  
Functions include: activate a panic alarm, arm the system, provide step arming,  
switch lights on/off, send a message to a pager, display Time/Date, and start a  
programmed Macro sequence.  
Paging Feature  
If programmed, the system can automatically send certain system condition  
messages to up to four pagers.  
The pager displays code numbers identifying the type of condition that has occurred.  
Scheduling  
Your system can be programmed to automatically perform certain functions (e.g.,  
arm the system) at a predetermined time each day.

About The Keypads  
General Information  
Your keypads allow you to control all system functions and feature the following:  
A telephone style (digital) keypad  
Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) that show the nature and location of all occurrences  
Built-in sounder that sounds during alarms and troubles. The sounder also "beeps"  
during certain system functions and also when depressing any of the keys (to  
acknowledge the key press).  
Backlighting of the LCD display windows. Backlighting turns on when any key is  
pressed or when entering the premises through any assigned entry/exit door. This  
feature is helpful when a keypad is located in a dimly lit area.  
Some keypads have a voice feature that announces the nature and location of all  
system occurrences. Voice keypads also announce any faulted entry/exit or  
perimeter zone when Chime mode is on. Ask your installer if this option has been  
programmed for your system.  
IMPORTANT: If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that an  
alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises.  
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.  
Your keypads are functionally the same, but may have different types of displays,  
depending on the type installed with your system.  
Alpha Display  
2-line alpha display keypads feature a 2-line, 32-character  
alphanumeric LCD that displays system messages in friendly  
English. These keypads can also be programmed with custom  
zone descriptors.  
Fixed-Word Display  
Voice Keypads  
Fixed-Word display keypads are functionally identical to  
Alpha display keypads, but the LCD display uses pre-  
designated words to identify the nature and location of  
occurrences.  
Voice Keypads (if installed), are functionally the same as other  
keypads, except that these keypads can provide the following:  
Voice announcements of system status (see Checking for  
Open Zones section)  
Voice chime, which can alert you to the opening of doors and  
windows while the system is disarmed (see Voice Chime in  
Chime mode section)  
Message center, which lets you record and playback  
messages (see Using the Voice Message Center in the  
System Overview section).

Entry/Exit Delays  
Entry Delay  
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the  
designated entrance door. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The first is for  
your primary entrance and the second can be used for a secondary entrance, where a  
longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system.  
You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will  
occur. The keypad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the  
system. The beeps stop when a code is entered, but will restart after about 15 seconds  
if an invalid code is entered.  
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the INSTANT or  
MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the  
premises or while away for extended periods of time.  
See your installer for your delay times.

Exit Delay  
Exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door(s) without  
setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after arming your system in  
any arming mode and Alpha Display keypads display the message “You May Exit  
Now.” When “You may exit now” disappears, the system is fully armed. If  
programmed, a slow beeping will sound during the exit delay period until the last  
10 seconds, which then changes to fast beeping (alerting you to the end of exit  
delay). If you cannot leave within this delay time period, you should stop, disarm  
the system, and start over to avoid a false alarm.  
Exit Delay Restart (if programmed):If you wish to open the entry/exit door to let  
someone in after arming STAY (the perimeter zones remain armed), you can restart  
the exit delay at any time – simply press the [] key, then let that person in. The  
system automatically rearms the entry/exit door when the exit delay expires, which  
avoids having to disarm the system and then rearm it again.  
Additionally, when the system is armed AWAY, reopening and closing the  
entry/exit door before exit delay time expires (e.g., re-entering to get a forgotten  
item), will reset the exit delay time once.  
14 –  
 
Entry/Exit Delays (cont’d)  
Exit Alarms  
Exit Error Conditions  
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior  
zone is faulted before exit delay expires and remains faulted (e.g., exit door left open),  
the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the  
system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "ALARM  
CANCELED " or "CA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number  
indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station.  
To clear the exit error condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear the  
display, enter your code plus OFF.  
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends and the faulted zone  
remains open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is sent to the  
Central Monitoring Station (after the installer-programmed dial delay expires). The  
message "EXIT ALARM" or "EA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone  
number indicating the faulted zone. To stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed  
(your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF a second time.  
An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two  
minutes after the end of the exit delay.  
Your system may have been programmed for this feature to minimize false alarms sent to the Central Monitoring  
Station. Ask your installer if "Exit Alarm" is active in your system. If so, check this box.  
VISTA-21iPSIA: The Exit Error condition works the same as described above, except that in  
addition to the “EXIT ALARM” message, a “zone alarm” message is also sent to the Central  
Monitoring Station. In addition, if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two  
minutes after the end of the exit delay, a “Recent Closing” condition occurs instead of the “exit  
alarm.” Refer to the next paragraph for details.  
“Recent Closing” Condition (VISTA-21iPSIA)  
A Recent Closing condition is similar to the Exit Error condition described above, but occurs if  
an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two minutes after the initial exit delay  
expires. If you disarm the system within the two minutes, the alarm sound stops and the  
message "ALARM CANCELED " or "CA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number  
indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station.  
If you do not disarm the system within two minutes and the faulted zone remains open, the  
alarm sound continues and a “recent closing” and a “zone alarm” message are sent to the  
Central Monitoring Station (after the installer-programmed dial delay expires). The alarm  
message along with a faulted zone number is displayed on the keypad. To stop the alarm, the  
system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF a  
second time.  
15 –  
 
Checking For Open Zones  
Using the [] Key to Display and Announce System Status  
Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows and other protection zones  
must be closed or bypassed; otherwise the keypad will display a "Not Ready"  
message.

Arming the System  
STAY Mode: Arms Perimeter Only, Entry Delay On  
Used when you want to arm the system with persons staying inside (or if you have  
pets that are moving throughout the premises).  
The perimeter sensors are armed, but interior sensors are left disarmed.  
Exit delay begins (you can leave through the entry/exit door, if desired).  
An alarm sounds if any protected window or non-entry/exit door is opened.  
You may otherwise move freely within the premises.  
Persons entering later can enter through an entry/exit door, but they must disarm  
the system within the entry delay period to avoid sounding an alarm.  
NIGHT-STAY Mode: Arms Perimeter Only, Plus Selected Zones  
Use NIGHT-STAY mode to provide increased security while staying inside.  
Arms same as STAY mode, but also arms preselected interior sensors (programmed  
by your installer), while other interior sensors are left disarmed.  
Persons entering later can enter through an entry/exit door but they must disarm  
the system and must not violate any of the programmed interior zones to avoid  
sounding an alarm.  
IMPORTANT: When NIGHT-STAY mode is on, the selected interior zones are  
armed and cause an alarm if anyone enters those areas (e.g., waking in the middle  
of the night). To avoid sounding an alarm, you must disarm the system before any  
activity takes place in those interior zones.  
INSTANT Mode: Arms Perimeter Only, Entry Delay Off  
Used when staying inside and do not expect anyone to use an entry/exit door.  
Arms same as STAY mode.  
An alarm sounds immediately if any protected perimeter window or any door is  
opened, including entry/exit doors.  
IMPORTANT: Arming the system in this mode greatly increases the chance of  
false alarms. Use extreme care in selecting this mode of arming.  
AWAY Mode: Arms Entire System, Entry Delay On  
Used when nobody will be staying inside (including pets).  
The entire system (interior and perimeter) is armed.  
Exit delay begins letting you leave through the entry/exit door.  
An alarm sounds if a protected window or any door is opened, or if any movement  
is detected inside your premises.  
You can re-enter through an entry/exit door, but you must disarm the system  
within the entry delay period to avoid sounding an alarm.  
MAXIMUM Mode: Arms Entire System, Entry Delay Off  
Used when leaving the premises for extended periods (e.g., vacation).  
Arms same as Away mode, but entry delay is off.  
An alarm sounds same as Away mode, and sounds upon opening entry/exit doors.

Arming Ding: In addition to the keypad beeps, the external sounder emits a short “ding” sound after arming, if  
programmed to do so. The ding confirms that the system is armed, and may occur immediately after the command or be  
delayed (until arm/disarm report is sent or exit delay expires). Ask your installer about how this feature is set for your system.  
Quick Arming  
If "Quick Arming" was programmed by the installer, the [#] key can be pressed in place  
of the security code when arming the system in any of the arming modes (except Night-  
Stay). However, the security code must always be used when manually  
disarming the system.  
Function Key Arming  
For any arming command, a function key may have also been programmed for your  
system. If so, you can press and hold the appropriate function key for 2 seconds to arm  
the system. See your installer for the designated functions (see Single Button  
Arming section).  
Refer to the Accessing Other Partitions section for information on multi-partition  
arming.

arming (by using the Quick Arm method described previously), a security code must  
always be used when manually disarming the system.  
If Single-Button Arming is programmed:  
A function key has been assigned to a specific type of arming: STAY mode,  
NIGHT-STAY mode, AWAY mode, or STEP-ARMING (see Step-Arming  
paragraph).  
You DO NOT need to enter your security code before pressing the function key  
but you always need your security code to DISARM the system.

Keyswitch  
Using the Keyswitch  
Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming and disarming.  
Red and green lights 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). If the system is disarmed and the green light is off, it  
indicates the system is not ready (one or more zones are open).  
Red Light:  
Lights or flashes when system is armed in AWAY or STAY mode.  
See your installer for the meanings of the lit red light:  
Lit Steady = system armed AWAY or  
system armed STAY and exit delay has expired  
Flashing = system armed STAY and exit delay timer active  
Rapid flashing = an alarm has occurred (memory of alarm).

Bypassing Protection Zones  
Using the BYPASS Key  
Use this key when you want to arm your system with one or more zones  
intentionally unprotected. The system must be disarmed first.  
Vent Zones: Your system may have certain windows set as “vent” zones, which are  
automatically bypassed if left open when arming the system (you do not need to  
manually bypass them). However, if a vent zone window is closed after arming, it  
becomes protected and will cause an alarm if opened again while the system is  
armed.  
When bypassing zones:  
The system must be disarmed before you can bypass zones.  
Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm if violated.  
The system will not allow fire zones to be bypassed.  
Zones are automatically unbypassed when the system is disarmed.

Macro Key Programming & Usage  
About Macro Keys  
The “A”, “B”, “C” or “D” keys can be used to automatically activate a series of  
commands of up to 16 keystrokes, if programmed for this function. These keystrokes,  
as a group, are called “macros” and are stored in the system's memory.  
Typical macro functions can include:  
-
-
-
Arming sequences: STAY, NIGHT-STAY, INSTANT, or AWAY  
Bypassing particular zone(s)  
Activating relay(s) for turning on (or off) lights, fans, etc.  
Up to four macros can be assigned – but no more than one macro to a key.  
Macros can be activated only by users with authority levels authorized to

Paging Feature  
About Automatic Paging  
Your system may be set up to automatically send messages to up to four pagers as  
certain conditions occur in your system.  
The following events can be programmed by your installer to be sent to the pagers:  
arming and disarming, alarms, and trouble conditions. (reports when  
arming/disarming from a keypad using a security code; auto-arming/disarming,  
arming with assigned button, and keyswitch arming do not send pager messages.)  
You can also program the system to send an automatic pager message to alert you  
in the event that someone has not arrived home (disarmed the system) within a  
defined period of time (see the Scheduling section for details on programming a  
“latch key report”).  
Your installer programs the pager phone numbers and reporting events.  
The pager message consists of a 7-digit system status code that indicates the type of  
condition that has occurred.  
An optional, predefined 16-digit character string can precede the 7-digit system  
status code; these characters can consist of a PIN no., subscriber account no., or any  
additional data that you may wish to have sent to the pager.  
The pager display format is as follows:

Latch Key Paging  
You can program a schedule that causes a pager report to be sent if the system is not  
DISARMED by the scheduled time (see Scheduling section, event “03”). For example,  
a working parent might want a message to be sent to a pager if their child did not  
arrive home from school and disarm the system by a certain time.  
If programmed, the message that is sent is: 7 7 7 7 7 7 7

Security Codes & Authority Levels  
About Security Codes  
Your installer assigned a master code that is used to perform all system functions.  
In addition, you can assign up to 47 different security codes for use by other users.  
Only the System Master and Partition Master can assign security codes to users.  
Users are identified by 2-digit user numbers and are pre-assigned to either  
partition 1 or partition 2.  
Only the System Master can change user partitions.  
In addition to a security code, each user is assigned various system attributes.  
Security codes can be used interchangeably within a partition when performing  
system functions (a system armed with one user's code can be disarmed by another  
user's code), with the exception of the Guest code Arm Only code described below.  
Security code programming involves these steps:  
1. Choose a user number from the set of users assigned to the partition in which  
the user will be operating, and assign a 4-digit security code.  
2. Assign an authority level to that user.  
3. Assign other attributes as necessary (see attributes on the next page).  
NOTE: The factory settings are designed to meet most normal user situations.  
Therefore, the only step you usually need to do when adding users is assign a user  
number (from the partition’s pre-assigned user numbers) and a security code.  
Authority Level Definitions  
Authority levels define the system functions a particular user can/cannot perform.  
Level Title  
Explanation  
N/A  
0
System Master  
(default = 1234)  
Reserved for user 02; Can perform all system functions and assign  
codes in both partitions; can change its own code as follows:  
Master code + [8] + 02 + new master code + new master code again  
Standard User:  
Can only perform security functions in assigned partition.  
Cannot perform system functions reserved for the master user.  
1
2
Arm Only:  
Guest:  
Can only arm the system. Cannot disarm or do other functions.  
Can arm the system in assigned partitions, but cannot disarm the system  
unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned  
to someone (e.g., babysitter or cleaner) who has a need to arm/disarm the  
system only at certain times. The user of this code should not use the “Quick  
Arming” feature.  
3
4
Duress Code:  
Intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm the system under  
threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the  
Central Monitoring Station of your situation, if that service has been  
provided.  
Partition Master  
Can do everything a standard user can do, and  
can assign security codes to users in their partition.

Security Codes & Authority Levels (cont’d)  
How to Assign Security Codes and Attributes  
The following lists the various command strings for adding security codes and attributes  
Refer to the User Setup chart at the back of this manual for factory defaults of  
user attributes and to keep a record of user programming.  
NOTE: Partition Master codes apply only to those user numbers previously assigned (by the  
system master/installer) to the partition master’s partition.  
Add Security Code:  
System/Partition Master code + [8] + user no. + new users security code  
(Users 03/33 are preset  
to partition programmers,  
but can be changed.)  
User 01 = installer  
User 02 = master  
The Keypad beeps once to confirm that new user was added.  
User 03 = partition 1 master  
User 33 = partition 2 master  
Delete Security Code: System/Partition Master code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [0]  
The user code and all attributes* programmed for this user number,  
including any associated RF keys, are erased from the system.  
(*except assigned partition)  
Authority Level:  
System/Partition Master code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [1]+ auth. level  
Factory Defaults:  
users 04-32/34-49 = 0  
users 03/33 = 4  
Authority Levels (see definitions on previous page):  
0 = standard user  
1 = arm only  
2 = guest  
3 = duress  
4 = partition master  
Access Group:  
System/Partition Master Code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [2]+ group (1-8)  
Factory Defaults:: none  
You can assign users to a group, then set an access schedule that  
defines the times this group of users can operate the system. The  
system ignores these users outside the scheduled times.  
User’s Partition:  
System Master Code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [3] + [0] + partition(s) + [#]  
This command assigns the partitions the user can access. If more  
than one, enter partition numbers sequentially, then press [#] to end.  
E.g., master code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [3] + [0] + [1] [2] + [#] gives  
the user access to partitions 1 and 2 and the common partition.  
Partition Entries: 1 = partition 1 and common  
Factory Defaults:  
Part. 1 = users 03-32  
Part. 2 = users 33-49  
2 = partition 2 and common  
3 = common partition only  
RF User Number:  
Master/Part. Prog. Code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [4]+ zone no.  
Factory Defaults:: none  
Use this command to assign a wireless button device (keyfob) to this  
user (keyfob must be enrolled in system first; see installer).  
Zone number: enter the zone number assigned to a button on the  
keyfob that will be used for arming/disarming by this user.  
Pager On/Off:  
Master/Part. Prog. Code + [8] + [user no.] + [#] [5] + 0 or 1  
Factory Defaults:  
users 01-49 = 1 (on)  
You can program a user so that a message is sent to a pager  
whenever this code is used to arm or disarm the system.  
Paging On/Off: 1 = allow paging; 0 = no paging for this user

Accessing Other Partitions  
About Accessing Partitions  
(GOTO Command and Multi-Partition Arming)  
Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only  
that partition's information.  
If the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform  
system functions in the other partition by using the GOTO command. Refer to  
the GOTO section.  
If the user is authorized, that user can arm other partitions. Refer to the Multi-  
Partition Arming section.  
The following table shows the relationship of the keypads in each partition when  
system is armed and disarmed.

When both partitions are disarmed, the keypad in each partition displays zone  
status for its partition only. The common zone keypad shows the status in that  
zone only. See Condition 1 above.  
When partition 1 is disarmed and partition 2 is armed, the keypad in partition 1  
shows the status of partition 1 and the common zone. Partition 2 will display the  
status of partition 2 only. See Condition 2 above.  
When partition 1 is armed and partition 2 is disarmed, the keypad in partition 1  
shows the status of partition 1 only. Partition 2 will display the status of partition  
2 and the common zone. See Condition 3 above.  
As long as any one of the two partitions is disarmed, the common zone will  
always be disarmed. The common zone will be armed only when both  
partition 1 and 2 are armed. See Condition 4 above.

Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d)  
Using the GoTo Command  
If the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform system  
functions in the other partition by using the GOTO command.  
You must use an Alpha keypad to access another partition.  
Keypads automatically return to their original partition after 30 seconds  
with no keypad activity.  
Alpha Display:

Multi-Partition Arming  
Some users can be given Multi-Partition arming ability by being assigned to both  
partitions when programming user attributes.  
When attempting to arm multi-partitions:  
You must use an Alpha keypad.  
The system arms only if all partitions are “ready to arm.”  
If any partition is “not ready,” the system does not arm at all.  
You can use the GOTO command to bypass open zones before arming.  
If any partition is already armed when global arming is attempted, that  
partition remains in its existing armed state.

Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d)  
Common Zone Operation  
Your system may have been set up to use a common zone, which is  
an area shared by users of both partitions, such as a foyer or lobby.  
If so, please note the following:  
Ask your installer if a  
"common zone" was  
assigned. If so, check  
this box  
The common zone will sound and report alarms only when both  
partitions are armed. If only one partition is armed, the system  
ignores faults on the common zone.  
Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is  
faulted, but once armed, the other partition will not be able to  
arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is  
corrected.  
Faults on the common zone are displayed on common partition  
keypads, and will also appear on another partition’s keypad when  
the alternate partition is armed.  
Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an  
alarm.  
Entry/exit time for the common zone is the same as for partition 1.

Testing the System  
About Testing the System  
Using the Test mode allows each protection point to be checked for proper operation.  
Testing should be conducted weekly to ensure proper operation.  
The keypad sounds a single beep about every 30 seconds as a reminder that the  
system is in the Test mode.  
Alarm messages are not sent to your Central Station while Test mode is on.  
Alpha Displays:  
1. Disarm the system and close all protected windows,  
doors, etc. The READY indicator light should come on

5. Walk in front of any interior motion detectors (if used) and listen for three beeps.  
The identification of the detector should appear on the display when it is activated.  
The display clears when no motion is detected. Note that if wireless motion detectors  
are used, there is a 3-minute delay between activations. This conserves battery life.  
6. Test all smoke detectors, following the manufacturer's instructions. The  
identification of each detector should appear on the display when each is activated.  
If a problem is experienced with any protection point (no confirming sounds, no

Trouble Conditions  
"Check" and  
"Battery" Displays  
The word CHECK on the keypad's display, accompanied by a  
"beeping" at the keypad, indicates a trouble condition in the system.  
To silence the beeping for these conditions, press any key.  
1. A display of "CHECK" and one or more zone numbers  
indicates that a problem exists with the displayed zone(s) and  
requires your attention. Determine if the zone(s) displayed are  
intact and make them so if they are not. If the problem has been  
corrected, the display can be cleared if you enter the OFF  
sequence (security code plus OFF key) twice. If the display  
persists, CALL FOR SERVICE.  
Note: A display of CHECK 70 on Alpha Display keypads  
indicates that the wiring connection to the external sounder is  
at fault (opened or shorted), and you should CALL FOR  
SERVICE. See “BELL FAILURE” on next page. A display of  
CHECK 90 indicates that RF interference may be impeding the  
operation of wireless sensors* in the system. See “Rcvr Jam”  
on next page.  
2. If there are wireless sensors* in your system, the CHECK  
condition may also be caused by some change in the  
environment that prevents the wireless receiver from receiving  
messages from a particular sensor. CALL FOR SERVICE if this  
occurs.

SERVICE.  
Total Power Failure  
In The Event Of Telephone Operational Problems  
In the event of telephone operational problems, disconnect the control from the phone line by  
removing the plug from the phone wall jack. We recommend that your installer demonstrate this  
disconnection on installation of the system. Do not attempt to disconnect the phone connection  
inside the control. Doing so will result in the loss of your phone lines. If the regular phones work  
correctly after the control has been disconnected from the phone wall jack, the control has a  
problem and you should immediately call for service. If upon disconnection of the control, there is  
still a problem on the phone line, notify the Telephone Company that they have a problem and  
request prompt phone repair service. The user may not under any circumstances attempt any  
service or repairs to the security system. Repairs must be made only by authorized service (see  
the LIMITED WARRANTY statement for information on how to obtain service).

Maintaining Your System  
The components of your security system are designed to be as  
maintenance-free as possible. However, to make sure that your  
system is in reliable working condition, do the following:  
1. Test your system weekly.  
Taking Care of  
Your System  
2. Test your system after any alarm occurs.  
Silencing Low  
Battery Warning  
Tones at the  
Keypad  
You can silence the keypad’s warning tones by pressing the OFF key,  
but the keypad's low battery message display will remain on as a  
reminder that you have a low battery condition in one or more of your  
wireless sensors. When you replace the weak battery with a fresh one,  
the sensor sends a "good battery" signal to the control as soon as the  
sensor is activated (opening/closing of door, window, etc.), causing the  
low battery display to turn off. If the sensor is not activated, the  
display will automatically clear within approximately 1 hour.  
Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery.  
The system detects a low battery in wireless sensors, including smoke  
detectors, the personal emergency transmitter, and the portable  
wireless keypad and displays a low battery message*. (A low battery  
in a portable wireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is  
pressed, and displayed as 00.). Battery-operated smoke detectors with  
a low battery also emit a single "chirp" sound approximately once  
every 20–30 seconds.  
Replacing  
Batteries in  
Wireless Sensors  
Wireless sensors  
may not have  
been used in your  
security system  
Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in  
most units and applications, provide 2–4 years of service. 3-volt  
lithium batteries provide up to 4 or more years of operation. Actual  
battery life will depend on the environment in which the sensor is  
used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had  
to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity, high  
or low temperatures or large swings in temperature, may all lead to  
the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.  
IMPORTANT:  
Use only batteries  
recommended by  
your installer as  
replacement.  
* The low battery message comes on as a warning that battery replacement  
in indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, a sensor  
causing a low battery indication is still fully operational.  
Treat the components of your security system as you would any  
other electrical equipment. Do not slam sensor-protected doors or  
windows.  
Routine Care  
Keep dust from accumulating on the keypad and all protective  
sensors, particularly on motion sensors and smoke detectors.  
The keypad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft  
cloth. Do not spray water or any other fluid on the units.

Fire Alarm System  
THIS SECTION APPLIES ONLY TO RESIDENTIAL SYSTEMS  
Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, for  
continuous protection. In the event of an emergency, the strategically  
located smoke and heat detectors will sound their alarms and  
automatically send signals to your system, triggering a loud,  
interrupted pulsed sound* from the Keypad(s) and any external  
sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your Keypad and remain on  
until you silence the alarm (see below for silencing fire alarms).  
General  
* Temporal pulse sounding is produced for Fire alarms, as follows:  
3 pulses–pause–3 pulses–pause–3 pulses–pause. . . , repeated.

2. If the Keypad's FIRE display does not clear after the second OFF  
sequence, smoke detectors may still be responding to smoke or  
heat producing objects in their vicinity. Investigate, and should  
this be the case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.  
3. If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in  
the detector. Clear it by fanning the detector for about 30 seconds.  
When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by  
entering your code and pressing the OFF key.  
Depending on the type of smoke detectors in your system, it may be  
necessary to "reset" the smoke detectors after a fire alarm has been  
turned off. Check with your installer. This "reset" is accomplished at  
a keypad, as follows:  
Smoke Detector  
Reset  
Enter Security Code ( except “arm only” user), then press the [1] key.  
NOTE: During smoke detector reset, “FAULT xx” appears (about six  
seconds) and should disappear if the detector is clear.

Recommendations on Smoke Detectors  
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we  
subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection  
Association's National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72) noted below.  
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire  
detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: A  
smoke detector installed outside of each separate sleeping area, in the  
immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the  
family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and  
unfinished attics.  
In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors  
in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic,  
furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.

Emergency Evacuation  
Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the  
event of fire. The following steps are recommended by  
the National Fire Protection Association:  
1. Position your detector or your interior and/or  
exterior sounders so that they can be heard by all  
occupants.  
2nd FLOOR  
2. Determine two means of escape from each room.  
One path of escape should lead to the door that  
permits normal exit from the building. The other  
BACK DOOR  
may be a window, should your path be impassable.  
Station an escape ladder at such windows if there  
is a long drop to the ground.  
1st FLOOR  
3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows,  
doors, stairs and rooftops that can be used to  
escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep  
these routes free from obstruction and post copies  
of the escape routes in every room.  
4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you  
BACK  
are asleep. This will prevent deadly smoke from  
entering while you escape.  
5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your  
alternate escape route. If the door is cool, open it  
cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door if smoke  
or heat rushes in.  
FRONT  
6. When smoke is present, crawl on the ground. Do  
not walk upright, since smoke rises and may  
overcome you. Clearer air is near the floor.  
7. Escape quickly; don't panic.  
8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away  
from your house, where everyone can meet and  
then take steps to contact the authorities and  
account for those missing. Choose someone to  
assure that nobody returns to the house — many  
die going back.

LIMITATIONS OF THIS SYSTEM  
WARNING! THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM  
While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or other  
emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety  
of reasons. For example:  
Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor  
or disconnect an alarm warning device.  
Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work  
without power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not  
put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however  
briefly.  
Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if  
the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the  
path.  
A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.  
While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not  
activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by  
the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this  
System may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke  
detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs,  
or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or  
building. A second floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors  
have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not  
always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping  
gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson.  
Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as  
anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.  
Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their  
installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple  
beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot  
detect motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or  
windows.  
Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical  
system can reduce their detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the  
ambient temperature of protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection performance  
can decrease.  
Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the  
other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the  
bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not  
hear the warning if the alarm is muffled from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic.  
Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.  
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service  
or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.  
Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect  
themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond  
appropriately.  
This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to  
last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.  
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance.  
This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.  
Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for  
insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and  
continue to insure their lives and property.  
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved  
ones to learn about these developments.

TWO YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY  
Honeywell International Inc., acting through its Security & Communications business (“Seller”), 2 Corporate Center Drive, Melville,  
New York 11747 warrants its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service, normal  
wear and tear excepted, for 24 months from the manufacture date code; provided, however, that in the event the Buyer presents a  
proper invoice relating to the purchased product and such invoice bears a date later than the manufacture date, then Seller may at  
its discretion, reflect the warranty period as commencing at invoice date. Except as required by law, this Limited Warranty is only  
made to Buyer and may not be transferred to any third party. During the applicable warranty period, Seller will repair or replace, at  
its sole option and as the exclusive remedy hereunder, free of charge, any defective products.  
Seller shall have no obligation under this Limited Warranty or otherwise if the product:  
(i)  
is improperly installed, applied or maintained;  
(ii) installed outside of stated operating parameters, altered or improperly serviced or repaired by anyone other than the  
Seller/Seller’s Authorized Service/Repair Center;  
(iii) damage is caused by outside natural occurrences, such as lightning, power surges, fire, floods, acts of nature, or the like;  
or  
(iv) defects result from unauthorized modification, misuse, vandalism, alterations of serial numbers, other causes unrelated to  
defective materials or workmanship, or failures related to batteries of any type used in connection with the products sold  
hereunder.  
Exceptions to Warranty With Respect to Honeywell Products listed below:  
Hardwire Contacts and PIRs – Seller warrants parts for hardwire contacts and PIRs in accordance with the terms of the above  
limited warranty for a period of five (5) years from the manufacture date code.  
EXCLUSION OF WARRANTIES, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY  
THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE HEREOF. TO THE  
FULL FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO CASE SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY (i)  
CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY  
WAY TO THE PRODUCT AND/OR FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION, EXPRESS OR  
IMPLIED, OR UPON ANY OTHER BASIS OF LIABILITY WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY  
SELLER’S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT AND EVEN IF SELLER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH  
LOSSES OR DAMAGES. Any product description (whether in writing or made orally by Seller or Seller’s agents), specifications,  
samples, models, bulletin, drawings, diagrams, engineering sheets or similar materials used in connection with the Buyer’s order are  
for the sole purpose of identifying the Seller’s products and shall not be construed as an express warranty or condition. Any  
suggestions by Seller or Seller’s agents regarding use, applications, or suitability of the products shall not be construed as an express  
warranty or condition unless confirmed to be such in writing by Seller. Seller does not represent that the products it sells may not be  
compromised or circumvented; that the products will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or  
otherwise, or that the products will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. Buyer understands that a properly installed  
and maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of a burglary, robbery or fire without warning, but it is not insurance or a guarantee  
that such will not occur or will not cause or lead to personal injury or property loss. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO  
LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE ORF OTHER LOSS BASED ON ANY CLAIM AT ALL  
INCLUDING A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. However, if Seller is held liable whether directly or  
indirectly for any loss or damage with respect to the products it sells, regardless of cause or origin, its maximum liability shall not in  
any case exceed the purchase price of the product, which shall be fixed as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, and shall be the  
complete and exclusive remedy against the Seller. Should your product become defective during the warranty, please contact your  
installer to facilitate repair or replacement with Seller pursuant to the terms hereof. Seller reserves the right to replace any defective  
product under warranty with new, refurbished, or remanufactured product.
