ADEMCO 5806 User Manual

Dear Tech-Man Subscriber:
ADEMCO apologizes for any misunderstanding that has arisen due to our recent
decision to have our technical information removed from the Tech-Man web site. You
may appreciate that one of our key concerns is to provide installing security dealers with
timely and accurate information on our products, and we were concerned about the data
posted to the Tech-Man web site. For obvious reasons, we also do not wish unauthorized
individuals to have access to information on installing and configuring ADEMCO
systems. These concerns were what prompted us to ask Tech-Man to stop posting
ADEMCO installation instructions and user manuals.
Several of you have written us to ask that we reconsider this decision. We have.
We will not require Tech-Man to remove the ADEMCO data. ADEMCO, however, is
not responsible for the operation and maintenance of this site - thus we cannot guarantee
the timeliness or accuracy of the information posted on the Tech-Man web site.
The ADEMCO web site is located at www.ademco.com and contains accurate
timely data about our products. You may request a PIN number for access to the
ADEMCO Technical Support web site and FAXBACK system.
If you need assistance on troubleshooting, or if you have other technical questions
about our products not addressed in the information posted at our web site, please contact
ADEMCO Technical Support at 800-645-7492.
Thank you for understanding.
Sincerely,
Herb Lustig
