during the 30 second period will cancel the alarm memory display. To view other alarms,

Disarming from a PK/RFK5500 or LCD Message Keypad:
Upon entering through a designated Exit/Entry door, the keypad will beep and the entry
delay will commence, reminding you to disarm the system. The keypad will display the
following message.
Enter your access code. If an error is made in entering the code,
enter the code again. When a valid access code is entered, the
keypad will stop beeping. If no alarms occurred while the panel was
armed, and there are no troubles, the display will read....
After about five seconds, the system will return to the Ready state
and the display will read...
If an alarm occurred while the system was armed, this message will
be displayed. Use the arrow (< >) keys to view which zones caused
the alarm. If a zone is still in alarm, the display will show the following
message to indicate that a zone is open...
Upon disarming and if a trouble is present, this message will be
displayed. Use the arrow (< >) keys to view which troubles are
affecting the system (see “Trouble Conditions” on page 13).
NOTE: If you return and find that an alarm has occurred while
you were away, it is possible that an intruder may still be on the premises. Go to a
neighbour's house, and call the local police to investigate.
The alarm memory is cleared each time the panel is armed so that any alarms showing
are alarms that occurred only during the last armed period.
Remote Arming and Disarming
The system can be armed and/or disarmed using the remote control device (wireless key).
When arming the system by using the Arm button on the wireless key, the system will
acknowledge the command by sounding a single bell squawk (if bell squawk is enabled).
When disarming using the Disarm button on the wireless key, the system will acknowledge
the command by sounding two bell squawks (if bell squawk is enabled) that can be heard
from the exterior of the premises.
If An Alarm Sounds
Fire Alarm
If your system has been installed with fire detectors and the alarm sounds in a pulsing
mode, follow your emergency evacuation plan immediately (see ““Fire Escape Planning” on
page 17).
Intrusion Alarm
If an intrusion alarm sounds, indicated by a continuous Bell or Siren, the alarm may be
silenced by entering your access code. If the alarm was unintentional, call local authorities
immediately to avoid an unnecessary response.
You can determine the source of the alarm by following the instructions in “Disarming the
System” on page 8). Once the source of the alarm has been corrected, the panel can be
restored to its original Armed state.
NOTE: A fire alarm has priority over a burglary type alarm.
