EMERGENCY
Press FIRE, POLICE, or AUX for 2 seconds (or press twice quickly) to call the central 
monitoring station and notify them of a non-medical call for help. 
How Your 
System 
Communicates 
to You
Your system responds to you through the use of panel voice messages, status beeps, 
alarms, panel indicator lights, and to a numeric pager or remote phone if programmed.
Panel Voice Messages
When you press the buttons on the panel or the touchpads, the panel responds with 
voice messages. Panel voice can be enabled or disabled (see  “Options”).
Note  
The panel will not give voice 
messages during an AVM 
session. Talk to your security 
system dealer to see if your 
panel has the AVM option.
These messages may respond with system information or prompt you to take further 
action. For example, if you want to disarm the system and you press the DISARM but-
ton, the panel responds by announcing, “Please enter your access code.”
If you press a button and the feature has not been programmed, the panel voice will 
respond with “Function not available.” An example of this would be pressing Lights 
Sensor (activated) button when you have no sensor activated lights in your system.
Status Beeps
Note  
You may receive a different 
number of status beeps if 
buttons are pressed quickly
Status beeps are used to indicate key presses, status, and problems with the system. 
They can be enabled or disabled (see  “Options”). The following table describes status 
beep activity.
