GE Simon XTi

Using the Simon XTi security system
You can operate the self-contained security system through several different
methods:
• Use the main screen icons to arm/disarm the system when you enter or exit your
home, check system status, and to determine which sensors are active.
• Use the emergency screen to communicate with the central monitoring station to
report emergency panic, police, or fire alarms.
• From the home screen, press the Status & Settings
icon to program certain
user features. (See System configuration on page 21).
Note: Upon initial installation, the battery may not be fully charged for as long as
36 hours. A low battery icon will be present and trouble beeps will sound until the
battery is sufficiently charged. After the initial charge, should the panel lose AC
Power and experience a low battery condition, the icon will appear and trouble
beeps will sound unless silenced. You can silence trouble beeps by:
• Arming or disarming the system.
or
• Pressing the STATUS & SETTINGS icon and pressing LISTEN next to Panel
Status.
This will disable the sounder for 4 hours but the trouble indication will remain until
the battery is recharged.
Contact your installer to replace your backup battery.
This system is intended to be checked by a qualified technician at least once every 3
years.
