Function Default Description
Piezo beeps On This option determines whether the panel piezo produces beeps based on system
activity (on) or is silent (off).
Panel voice On When On, arming level changes will be spoken.
Panel piezo
alarm
On Determines whether the panel piezo emits alarm sounds (on) or not (off).
Trouble beeps On Determines whether the panel, X10, and hardwired interior sirens sound six beeps every
minute when a trouble condition occurs (on) or not (off). The following conditions cause
trouble beeps:
AC power failure (when AC power failure report is on) low CPU battery
Sensor failure (supervisory)
Sensor trouble (low battery, tamper, etc.)
Fail to communicate
Restoration of power
No Activity timer has timed out. Trouble beeps continue for 5 minutes and if the panel
does not see activity, trouble beeps stop and the panel reports the no activity to the
central station.
Trouble beeps can be silenced by arming or disarming the system or by pressing the
STATUS button. Trouble beeps resume 4 hours later if the trouble condition is not cleared.
Voice chime Off Determines whether the panel announces the sensor name.

Status beeps vol. 7 Determines the panel piezo volume level for status sounds such as arming, trouble, and
status beeps. Volume range is 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

(off). If this option is turned on, sirens connected to the panel terminals require an EOL
resistor in the wire circuit. (See Chapter 3 Installing the system on page 17 for siren
wiring.) If this option is turned off, EOL resistors are not required whether sirens are
connected or not.
