The PC1575 alarm panel can be accessed, controlled and
completely programmed via any keypad on the system. The LED
keypaduses functionandzoneindicatorlights torepresentalarm
functions and status. The LCD keypad provides a written
descriptionontheliquidcrystaldisplayandusesfunctionindicator
lights to communicate alarm status to the user.
The following sections describe how to arm and disarm the
system from each type of keypad, and how to perform other
keypad functions.
3.1 Arming and Disarming
The system cannot be armed unless the Ready light is ON. In
order for the system to be in the Ready state, all protected
doors and windows must be secured and all movement in
areas covered by motion detectors must cease. When the
Ready light is ON, enter any valid access code. As each digit
ispressed, thekeypad willbeep.Ifthecorrect codeisentered
whenthesystem is not in theReadystate,the panel will sound
six quick beeps followed by a long two second beep.
Ifan incorrectcodeis entered,thekeypad willemita steady
twosecondbeepto indicate the invalid access code. When
the correct code is entered and the system is Ready, the
panel will emit six short beeps and the Armed light will turn
ON. Exit the premises through the designated entry/exit
door. For other methods of arming,

Inanattempttopreventfalsealarms,the AudibleExitFault
is designed to notify the user of an improper exit when they
arm their system. If a non force-arming Delay 1 or Delay 2
type zone is left open at the end of the exit delay, the entry
delay will begin immediately and the bell or siren will sound
a steady alarm for the entry delay period. At the end of the
entry delay period, if the system has not been disarmed it
will go into alarm.
When you enter the premises through a designated entry/
exit door while the system is armed, the keypad will emit a
steady beep to remind you to disarm the system. Enter a
valid access code from any keypad to disarm the system. If
anerrorismade,pressthe[#]keyandenterthecodeagain.
When a correct code is entered, the Armed light will turn
OFF and the keypad will stop beeping. During the last 10
seconds of entry delay, the panel will pulse the keypad
beeper ON and OFF rapidly to warn you that the entry delay
is about to expire.

light and the zone indicator lights corresponding to the
zoneswhich caused the alarm will be flashing. Pressthe[#]

3.2 Auto Bypass – Stay Arming
Stay arming allows the user to arm the system without
leavingthe premises.Allinteriorzonescan beprogrammed
tobebypassedduringStayarmingsothattheuserdoesnot
have to bypass interior zones manually.
When the system is armed using a valid user code, if any
zones on the system have been programmed as Stay/Away
zones, the Bypass light will turn ON. The panel will then
monitor all zones programmed as Delay 1 and Delay 2
zones,suchasdesignated entry/exit doors. If no delay type
zone is violated by the end of the exit delay, the panel will
bypass all Stay/Away type zones. The Bypass light will
remain ON to inform the user that the interior protection has
been automatically bypassed by the panel. If a delay zone
isviolated during theexitdelay, the Stay/Awayzoneswill be
active after the exit delay expires.
TheusercanaddtheStay/Awayzonesbackintothesystem
at any time by entering the [✱]

Stay arming can also be initiated by pressing and holding
the Stay function key for two seconds on the PC5506 and
LCD5500keypads,ifprogrammedbytheinstaller.Formore
information regarding Stay arming, please see section 3.5
(“Function Keys”).
3.3 Automatic Arming
The system can be programmed to Auto-Arm at a specific
time every day if it is in the disarmed condition.
In order for the Auto-Arm function to work properly, the
correctTimeofDaymustbeprogrammed.Forprogramming
theclockand Auto-Armtimes,seeSection3.4(“[✱]

When the system’s internal clock matches the Auto-Arm
Time, the panel will check the system status. If the system is
armed,thepanelwilldonothinguntilthenextdayattheAuto-

3.4 [✱]
Commands
The [✱]
key commands provide an easy way for the user to
access basic system programming – such as entering user
codes or bypassing zones. The user can also use the [✱]
key commands to check on the system’s status, including
viewing trouble conditions and displaying the event buffer
on the LCD keypad.
The [✱]
key commands can be performed from both LCD
and LED keypads. The LED keypad uses the zone indicator
lights to display command information. The LCD display
provides written information, guiding the user through each
command. The commands in this section are explained as
viewed from an LED keypad. When using an LCD keypad,
use the arrow keys (< >) to scroll through information
provided.Otherwise,thefunctionsremainthesameforboth
keypad types.
[✱]
[1] Bypassing and Reactivating Stay/Away
Zones
The [✱]
[1] keypad command can be used to bypass
individual zones. A bypassed zone will not cause an alarm.
The user can bypass zones to gain access to an area while
arming the rest of the system or to override a defective
