Press Info to view important information, for example the phone number to the
associated control center.
In case of alarm, the internal buzzer in the control panel will sound.
Press Silent to stop the buzzer (this only stops the sound, not the alarm!).
If your system is in service mode, the service level will be shown on the main screen.
Login
Login to the control panel by entering your personal user code (4-8 characters) and
finish with the Enter key.
Login with threat (duress) alert to the control center.
If you are threatened to log in, you can covertly send an alarm to the associated con-
trol center. This alarm will not be visible on the control panel until you sign in with
your regular user code.
You can send a duress alarm by changing the last digit of your user code to the
number higher (+1).
For example:
Normal code Duress code
1000 1001
4567 4568
456789 456780
NOTE
If 5 invalid user codes are entered within 3 minutes* (adjustable), the control panel
locks itself and will not accept further codes (invalid or valid) for 3 minutes*.
Additional error codes will cause the system to block for a longer time.
To unlock the control panel, it’s necessary to make an alarm or wait until the unlock-
ing time has been reached. This time will be shown on the control panel by a time-
counter.
If 36 invalid codes are entered within 12 hours, the control panel will lock for 12
hours.*
*All time settings are adjustable!

Service
Functions for service personnel
(normally not available).
In the main menu you have only two options, Select and Logout.
The options are selected by using the function keys.
Alarm Menu
The alarm menu is activated whenever an alarm is triggered from any active detector
in the system. In this menu detailed alarm information can be requested and alarms
can be acknowledged.
The information display shows the total number of
active (not acknowledged) alarms in the top row of
the display.
It also shows time, date, room (area) and which de-
tector triggered the alarm.
Possible problems acknowledging alarms:
A.User has no right to acknowledge an alarm of a specific type
Solution: use another user code with more rights.
B. The detector is still active and the area is still armed.
Solution: disarm the area or try to make the detector not active anymore
The acknowledgement display lets you acknowledge
a single alarm or alternatively acknowledge all alarms
at once.
Warnings Menu
This menu shows system warnings.
A system warning can be a system problem, which has a very low priority (e.g. AC
loss - up to 30 minutes). You are not able to acknowledge a warning, the warning
will be automatically acknowledged once the problem is resolved (e.g. by restoring
AC).
A warning is also generated as long there is a deactivated detector. The warning will
be removed as soon as the detector is reactivated by disarming the area.
Area Menu
In the area menu the defined areas are set to armed and disarmed or any other status
available.
The numbers in the top line of the display mark which area out of the total number
of areas is currently shown. In the example below area 1“entry hall” out of a total
number of 8 areas is shown.
To switch to a different area use the scroll keys on the panel or enter the number of
the requested area and press “E” (enter).
Area option menu
Press “select” on the area to enter the area options menu.
Generally, you have the following options available:
• Arm/disarm (depending on current area state)
• Test (normally only available if area is disarmed)
• Deactivate (normally only available if area is disarmed)
Arm/disarm
Test area
To check if an area can be armed, select “Test”.
