To silence, acknowledge and reset an alarm:
1. Make sure that it is safe to enter the premises.
2. Enter your access code or present your proximity tag to the keypad.
This silences the alarm (if the sirens and sounders are still operating).
Note: In a partitioned system, you can silence, acknowledge and
reset an alarm only if it has been caused in a partition to which you
have access.
3. The navigation key glows red and the bottom line of the display shows
the first zone to alarm. For example:
OR, for example:
The bottom line alternates once a second to show the name of the

4. Press to indicate that you have acknowledged the alarm message.
The system returns to standby and is ready to set again.
5. If the alarm message included "Press tick to reset" (see above),
acknowledging the alarm also resets the system and the navigation
key returns to its normal (green) state.
If the alarm message included "Call Installer" (see above) or "Call
ARC", you will need to call the installer or ARC to reset the system (as
described in the next section), although you will still be able to set and
unset the system normally. The navigation key glows red until the
alarm is reset.
Note:
If the alarm was started by accident, see "Accidental alarms" on page
29.
In a partitioned system, some tamper alarms may need to be silenced
in more than one partition.
