User manual CADDX RANGER 8600

[. . . ] PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE LEVEL OF SECURITY YOU WILL OBTAIN WITH THIS SYSTEM RELATES SPECIFICALLY WITH TWO MAJOR FACTORS: 1. The quantity, quality, and placement of security devices attached to this system. The knowledge you have of the security system and how that knowledge is utilized in a weekly test of the complete system. YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING FACTS AND USE THEM WHEN PREPARING A SAFETY/SECURITY PLAN FOR YOUR HOME/BUSINESS. [. . . ] The "AUTOMATIC BYPASS" will occur at the end of the exit delay time. At this time, all bypassed "ZONE" lights will become illuminated. With the interior zones bypassed, occupants are allowed the freedom of movement inside of the Home/Business while the security system is "ARMED". INSTANT / DELAY OPTION If checked, the "INSTANT" option has been selected by your installing company. With this feature enabled, if you do not wish to have a delay on your entry/exit doors, this can be accomplished by pressing the [r] key on your keypad while the system is "ARMED". At this time, the "INSTANT" light will illuminate and there will be no entry delay when the entry/exit doors are opened. Any time the "INSTANT" light is on and the exit delay has expired, the opening of an entry/exit door will produce an immediate alarm, making this feature ideal when a high level of security is desired, and no authorized entries are anticipated. By pressing the [r] key again, the "INSTANT" light will turn off, and an entry delay will be present on designated entry/exit doors. NOTE: Your installing company may have programmed the "INSTANT" option to occur in conjunction with the "AUTOMATIC BYPASS" feature. In this case, the "INSTANT" light and the bypassed "ZONE" lights will become illuminated at the end of the exit delay. If this occurs, you still have the ability to turn the "INSTANT" feature off, and/or on by pressing the [r] key. TURNING ON THE CHIME FEATURE Your Security Control Center will operate in the "CHIME" mode to allow the monitoring of selected perimeter doors and windows and designated interior areas while the Security System is not armed. While in the "CHIME" mode, the opening of perimeter doors or windows, or a violation of designated interior areas will cause the Keypad Control to sound (beep) for one second. In five seconds the Keypad Control will sound (beep), indicating that this feature has been enabled. In five seconds the Keypad Control will sound (beep), indicating that this feature has been turned off. KEYPAD ACTIVATED PANIC/HOLD-UP ALARM If checked, this feature has been selected by your installing company. If so, when the star [r] and pound [#] keys are pressed at the same time for one second, a local audible alarm will sound. If your system is connected to a monitoring center, an emergency report could be transmitted to that center. These keys should only be pressed in an emergency situation requiring immediate response by law enforcement personnel. PLEASE NOTE: Some Panic/Hold-Up alarms are programmed to be silent at the protected site while reporting an alarm to the monitoring center. Check with your installing company to determine how your security system will respond to the Panic/Hold-Up activation. 4 KEYPAD ACTIVATED FIRE ALARM If checked, this feature has been selected by your installing company. If so, you can activate the Fire alarm by pressing the one [ 1] and three [3] keys at the same time for one second. If your system is connected to a monitoring center, an emergency report could be sent to that center. These keys should only be pressed in an emergency situation requiring response by fire department personnel. FIRE ZONE If checked, your system has zones designated as "FIRE" zones. When this option is selected, and approved heat or smoke detectors are attached to these selected zones, a Fire alarm sound can be initiated from the security system. [. . . ] An escape ladder may have to be located near the window if there is a long drop to the ground below. Set a meeting place outdoors for a headcount of the building occupants. In a home, sleep with bedroom door closed; this will increase your escape time. If you think it is safe, brace your shoulder against the door and open it cautiously. [. . . ]
