Sensors
These instructions tell how to add (learn) sensors, touchpads, and other system devices into panel memory. The
panel recognizes a sensor when you press a sensor program button, press and release a tamper switch, press a
sensor test button, or put a sensor into alarm. Table 14 describes the programming method for each device.
Note: If you are installing a sensor on a gun case, jewelry box, or a similar case, and the sensor is active in level one, you must
subdisarm to avoid putting the panel into alarm when the sensor and the magnet are separated.
When learning sensors, the panel uses an ascending number sequence starting with 1. You can override this by
entering the desired sensor number using the number keys.
Call wait code Off The call waiting code is dialed by the panel before a phone number to disable call
waiting. Verify that the end-user has call waiting with his phone service provider before
changing this option from its default.
CAUTION: Changing this option from its default without call waiting will prohibit
the panel from calling the central station.
The call waiting code is programmed the same way as a phone number.
