General Information
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on theconfiguration of your system. The system consists of a master keypad for controlling system operation,
various wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, and optional smoke or
combustion detectors to provide early fire warning. In addition, optional wireless keypads may have been
installed to allow you to control the system away from the master keypad. The system may also becontrolled from a remote telephone and can be used as a speaker phone.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status, display
appropriate information on the keypad display, and initiate appropriate alarms. Your system may also havebeen programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm
monitoring station, and may also be capable of two-way voice communication with the central station.
The user features of this security system are listed below. Ask your installer which features have been
programmed for your system.
• STAY and AWAY arming modes: By using these modes you can protect either the perimeter only, orthe entire premises.
• 3 panic key functions: Designated keys allow you to manually activate fire, personal emergency, or
silent alarms. Refer to the PANIC KEYS section for detailed information.
• Paging feature: Alerts you to certain system conditions by displaying code numbers that indicate thetype of condition that has occurred. In addition, pressing the AUX key can send a predefined message toyour pager, if programmed to do so (see AUX key function below). Refer to the PAGING FEATURE
section for detailed information.
• Real-time clock: Keypad displays current time. Refer to the CLOCK/CALENDAR section forprocedures for setting the time.
• Voice announcement of system status: The master keypad’s built-in speaker announces system status at
the press of a key. Refer to the CHECKING SYSTEM STATUS section for detailed information.
• Message center: The system allows recording and play back of brief messages. Refer to theRECORDING/PLAYBACK MESSAGES section for procedures.
• Device activation: Designated keys allow you to turn lights and/or other devices on and off. In addition,some devices (e.g., a light) may be programmed to activate automatically as a result of a system event
such as an alarm or trouble condition. Refer to the USING POWERLINE CARRIER DEVICECOMMANDS section for detailed information.
• AUX key function: Designated key lets you activate a predefined series of keystrokes with a single pressof the AUX key plus user code, if programmed to do so (see Paging feature above). Refer to the AUX
FUNCTION section for detailed information.
• Scheduling feature: Allows you to schedule the automatic activation or deactivation of X-10 devices orprogram events (e.g. alarm clock, reminder, and latch key).

–3–

6<67(029(59,(:Features• Two-way voice: Allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct two-way conversations withindividuals on the premises Refer to the TWO-WAY VOICE section for detailed information.
• Phone Control: Provides a remote interactive phone capability that permits access to the security systemfrom any off-site touch-tone telephone.
• Speaker Phone Operation: The system is capable of operating as a speaker phone allowing hands freetelephone conversation.
• Security Codes: The system is capable of supporting an Installer code, Master user code and six
additional User codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for detailed information.

6<67(029(59,(:General Operation
Zones
Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the sensing device on
your entry/exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom
to zone 02, and so on. These numbers appear on the display when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.

8/

LYNXR-EN is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour
backup battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed.

Fire Protection
The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an alarm if afire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information concerning
fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from the premises.

Burglary Protection
Your system provides two modes of burglary protection: STAY and AWAY. STAY mode protects theperimeter only, allowing you to freely move within inside the premises. AWAY mode protects the entire
system. Both modes provide an entry delay time that allows you to reenter the premises without setting off
an alarm. For additional security, you can turn the entry delay off when arming the system by using the
NO DELAY key in combination with the desired arming key. The system also allows you to bypass selected
zones before arming the system, if desired. Refer to the BYPASSING PROTECTION ZONES section. The
system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening of protected doors and windows
while the system is disarmed.
You must turn on ("arm") the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary
alarms. To arm the system, enter your user code then press the desired arming key (AWAY or STAY).
Refer to the ARMING THE SYSTEM section for detailed procedures and information.

Security Codes
At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal 4-digit security or “master user” code. You mustenter the user code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system functions. Asan additional security feature, other users who do not need to know your code can be assigned up to 6
different security codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for procedures on adding security codes tothe system.

AlarmsWhen an alarm occurs, the keypad and external sounders will sound for about 15-seconds, and the keypad
will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. After 15-seconds, the siren stops temporarily and voice–5–

6<67(029(59,(:General Operation
announcements of the zones in alarm begins. When these zones have been announced, the siren sounds
again and the cycle repeats itself, until the system is disarmed (code + OFF) or until alarm bell timeout
occurs. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop
the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed indicating
memory of alarm. Refer to the DISARMING THE SYSTEM section for information about clearing thememory of alarm display

Two-Way Voice Feature
The LYNXR-EN supports voice dialog between an operator at the central station and an individual at thepremises. This feature allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct a two-way conversation with anindividual(s) at the premises and allows the operator to gather information about the nature and location of
the alarm that may be helpful in responding to fire, police or rescue departments. If the Two-way Voice
Feature has been programmed and an alarm condition is detected the system sends an alarm message to thecentral station. After acknowledgement is received, a “listen in to follow” message is sent to the central
station. By responding to this message the central station operator can enter commands that allow him toinitiate a 5-minute voice session. The options allow the operator to enter the following modes:• Talk: Allows the operator to speak to individuals at the premises through the system speaker.
• VOX (2-way voice): Allows the operator to hold a two-way (speak and listen) conversation withindividuals at the premises.
• Listen: Allows the operator to listen to any activity at the premises through the system microphone.
If a subsequent zone is violated during a voice session, the system will terminate the session and process thealarm. During the voice session, the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs will alternately blink in the
Talk and VOX Modes but not during Listen Mode.

Arming in Stay ModeUse this mode when you are staying home, but expect someone to use the entrance door later. Close allprotected perimeter windows and doors before arming. The green READY indicator on the keypad should
be lit if the system is ready to be armed.
To arm in STAY mode:+ STAY or press and hold STAY **Your User code**** See Quick Arming paragraph.
The keypad beeps three times and displays the armed STAY message. The red ARMED indicator lights andthe system announces “armed STAY–exit now.”
When armed in STAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, but
you may otherwise move freely throughout the premises. Late arrivals can enter through the entrance door
without causing an alarm, but they must disarm the system within the entry delay period or an alarm will
occur.
Restarting Exit Delay While System ArmedAsk your installer if this feature is active for your system. If active, you can restart the exit delay at any timeafter arming in STAY mode. This is useful if you wish to open the entry/exit door to let someone in afterarming the system, and avoids having to disarm the system and then re-arm it again.
To restart exit delay while system is armed in STAY mode: Press STAY key

Arming In Away ModeUse this mode when no one will be staying on the premises. Close all protected perimeter windows anddoors before arming. The green READY indicator on the keypad should be lit if the system is ready to bearmed.
To arm in AWAY mode:+ AWAY or press and hold AWAY **Your User code **** See Quick Arming paragraph.
The keypad beeps twice, or beeps continuously if exit warning has been programmed for your system, anddisplays the armed AWAY message. The red ARMED indicator lights and the system announces “armed
AWAY–exit now.”
When armed in AWAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, or if
any movement is detected inside the premises. You may leave through the entrance door during the exit
delay period without causing an alarm. You may also re-enter through the entrance door, but you must
disarm the system within the entry delay period or an alarm will occur.

If Quick Arm was programmed by the installer, you do not need to enter the security code to arm thesystem. Instead, simply press and hold down the desired arming key for at least 2 seconds. The security
code must always be used to disarm the system, however.
To arm if Quick Arm is active: AWAY or STAY hold down for at least 2 seconds
To arm with NO DELAY if Quick Arm is active: AWAY or STAY then NO DELAY hold down for atleast 2 seconds

IMPORTANT: The Babysitter Code and Installer Code cannot disarm the system unless it was used to arm
the system. In addition, if the system is armed by pressing and holding the Quick-Arm buttons, neither the

Entry/Exit Delays
Exit Delay
Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through the designatedexit door without setting off an alarm. A slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period, if
programmed.
Exit Alarms

Exit Alarm Active

To minimize false alarms sent to the alarm monitoring company, your system may have been programmed
for this feature. Ask your installer if Exit Alarm is active for your system.
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted whenthe exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If
you disarm the system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "CA" isdisplayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to thealarm monitoring company. To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made re-secured; toclear the display, enter your code plus OFF.
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or interior zone is still
open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is sent to the alarm monitoring company. The
message "EA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. To stop
the alarm, the system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus
OFF a second time. An exit alarm also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two
minutes after the end of the exit delay.

Entry Delay
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the designated entrance door.
You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad beeps
during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. There are two entry delays (ifprogrammed). The first is for your primary entrance and the second can be used for a secondary entrance,
where a longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system.
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the NO DELAY key when arming. This canprovide greater security while on the premises or while away for extended periods of time. See ARMINGTHE SYSTEM section for procedure.
See your installer for delay times programmed for your system.

no audible alarms or visual displays.
An audible emergency/audible alarm sends an emergency message to the alarm monitoring company† andsounds a loud, steady alarm at your keypad and at any external sounders that may be connected(“ALARM” plus a zone number are also displayed).
A personal emergency/aux alarm sends an emergency message to the alarm monitoring company† andsounds at keypads, but not at external sounders. (“ALARM” plus a zone number are also displayed).
A supervised fire alarm sends a fire alarm message to the alarm monitoring company† and uniquely
activates keypad and any external sounders (“FIRE ALARM” plus a zone number are also displayed).
† If your system is connected to an alarm monitoring company

Paging Feature
Automatic Paging
If the Paging feature has been programmed for your system, your pager will respond to certain conditions as
they occur in your system by displaying a message that indicates the type of condition that has occurred.
The message appears in a 7-digit format explained below. The system can also be programmed to send up
to 16 additional digits that will appear in front of the 7-digit message. These 16 digits may consist of a PIN
number or special digits needed by the pager, account number, pauses, or any other special characters you
may choose (for example, you may want to use a special character code to distinguish between security
system messages and usual pager messages). See your installer if these additional characters are desired.

Code Format
The Pager Code takes the following form: (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) EEE-00NN
AAA… = Optional 16 digits, programmed by your installer.
EEE= 3-digit number describing the event that has occurred, as follows:
911 = Alarm (00NN following indicates the zone that caused the alarm)
101 = Open, system disarmed (00NN following indicates user number)
102 = Close, system armed (00NN following indicates user number)
811 = Trouble (00NN following indicates the zone that caused the trouble)
00NN = First two digits are always 00, followed by 2-digit user or zone number, depending on
the type of event that occurred. If NN = 00, it can mean an AC loss has occurred, thesystem battery is low, or a 5827 wireless keypad battery is low. The Master Keypad
will indicate the specific condition.
Examples:Pager displays: 911–0004
This indicates your system is reporting an alarm (911) due to a fault on zone 4 (0004).
Pager displays: 101–0005
This indicates that your system is reporting an open/disarm (101) by user 5 (0005).

Manual Paging
In addition, your system may have been programmed to send a unique pager message when the AUX key ispressed (see AUX FUNCTION section for alternate function of this key). The actual message sent is 9999999 (the hyphen may not appear, depending on your pager service). This code can be used to alert theperson with the pager to whatever meaning you pre-arrange (e.g., “call home”). Ask your installer if thishas been done for your system.
To manually send the pager message, if programmed: AUX (hold until 4 beeps sound)– 20 –

triggering a loud, intermittent sound from the keypad. An intermittent sound will also be produced by
optional exterior sounders, and interlaced with the voice descriptor, sounding every 15 seconds. A “FIRE”
message will appear at your keypad and remain on until you silence and clear the alarm display.

Smoke Detector Recommendations
8/

LYNXR-EN is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour
backup battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed.

With regard to the number and placement of smoke and heat detectors, we subscribe to therecommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #74 noted
below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms andareas of the household. The equipment should be installed as follows: A smoke detector installed outside ofeach separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of thefamily living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.
In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room, dining room,
bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attachedgarages.

8/

LYNXR-EN is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour
backup battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-HC) is installed.

1.

Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders sothat they can be heard by all occupants.

2.

Determine two means of escape from each room. One path ofescape should lead to the door that permits normal exit from thebuilding. The other should be an alternative escape, such as awindow, should your path to that door be unpassable. Station an
escape ladder at such windows if there is a long drop to theground.

3.

4.

Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs
and rooftops that can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes foreach room. Keep these routes free from obstruction and post
copies of the escape routes in every room.
Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This
will prevent deadly smoke from entering while you escape.

5.

Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route.
If the door is cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam thedoor if smoke or heat rushes in.

6.

When smoke is present, crawl on the ground. Do not walk
upright, since smoke rises and may overcome you. Clearer air isnear the floor.

7.

Escape quickly; don't panic.

8.

Establish a place outdoors, away from your house, where
everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the authorities
and account for those missing. Choose someone to assure that
nobody returns to the house — many die going back.

Security Codes
General Information
For additional security you (the Master User Code) can assign secondary user codes to individual users
enabling them to perform specific system functions. These secondary users are identified by "user numbers"
when their codes are assigned. You can assign up to 6 user codes (2-digit user numbers 03-08). Note thatthe master user is the only one who can assign codes to secondary users, and is designated user no. 02; user
no. 01 is the Installer’s code.
All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions (a system armed with one user's
code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the Babysitter Code described below.
Babysitter Code (User 07): This code can be used to arm the system, but cannot disarm the system unlessthe system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to someone (such as a babysitter) who
needs to arm/disarm the system only at certain times. The Babysitter Code is assigned to User 07.
Duress Code (User 08): This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm the system
under threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the alarm monitoring companyof your situation, if that service has been provided. Duress Code is assigned to User 08.
The Duress Code is useful only when the system is connected to an alarm monitoring company.

To Add/Delete a User or Change a User's CodeChanging the Master User CodeFollow the procedure for changing a user's code, but enter User No. 02 and enter the new code twice.
IMPORTANT: Temporary users of the system (e.g., babysitters, cleaning staff) should not be shown how to use any
system function they do not need to know, such as bypassing protection zones for example.

Sequential key depressions for all steps in a procedure must be made within 2 seconds of one another, orelse the entire entry is aborted and must be repeated from its beginning.
Add a user code:+ CODE Key + user number (03-08) + user’s code
Master user code

Delete a user code:+ CODE Key + user number (03-08)
Master user code

Wait (about 3 seconds) until the keypad beeps once before pressing any other key. The code is
automatically deleted.

Testing the System (to be conducted weekly)Entering Test Mode
The TEST key puts your system into the Test mode, which allows each protection point to be checked forproper operation. The keypad sounds a single beep every 45 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the
Test mode.
NOTE: An alarm message will not be sent to your alarm monitoring company during the following tests.
Disarm the system and close all protected windows, doors, etc. The “READY” indicator should be lit.
+ TEST key

Enter:Your user code

WATCH. All LCD segments will light for 3 seconds.
LISTEN. The external sounder should sound for 2 seconds and then turn off. If the sounder does not sound,
notify your service company.
FAULT ZONES. Open each protected door and window in turn and listen for three beeps from the keypad,
followed by the zone’s Voice Descriptor, if it is programmed. Identification of each faulted protection pointshould appear on the display. The display will clear when the door or window is closed.
Walk in front of any interior motion detectors (if used) and listen for three beeps and/or voice descriptors, if
programmed. The identification of the detector should appear on the display when it is activated, and its
voice descriptor will be announced (if programmed). The display will clear when no motion is detected.
Note that if wireless motion detectors are used, there is a 3-minute delay between activations. This is toconserve battery life.
To test all smoke detectors, follow the manufacturer's instructions. The identification of each detector
should appear on the display when each is activated.
If a problem is experienced with any protection point (no confirming sounds, no display), notify yourservice company.
When all protection points have been checked and are intact (closed), there should be no zone identification
numbers displayed on the keypad.

Routine Care•••

Treat the components of your security system as you would any other electrical equipment. Do not slamsensor-protected doors or windows.
Keep dust from accumulating on the keypad and all protective sensors, particularly on motion sensors
and smoke detectors.
The keypad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft cloth. Do not spray water or any
other fluid on the units.

6<67(0)81&7,216
Maintaining your system
The components of your security system are designed to be as maintenance-free as possible. To make surethat your system is in working condition, do the following:
1. Test your system weekly.
2. Test your system after any alarm occurs (see the TESTING THE SYSTEM section).

Low Battery Conditions in Wireless Sensors
Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects low battery conditions
in wireless sensors, including smoke detectors, personal emergency transmitter, and the portable wirelesskeypad, and displays a “LOW BAT” message on the master keypad, which also beeps. A low battery in awireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the master keypad (e.g. Ademco 5827)
will display “00”. In addition, a wireless smoke detector with a low battery also emits a "chirp" soundapproximately once every 20–30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke detector with the weak battery.
NOTE: A low battery message means that battery replacement in the indicated sensor(s) is due within 30
days. In the meantime, a sensor with a low battery is still operational.
To silence Low Battery Warning Tones at the Keypad: Press the OFF key.
The low battery message display will remain on as a reminder. When you replace the weak battery with afresh one, the sensor will send a "good battery" signal to the control when the sensor is activated(opening/closing of door, window, etc.).
To clear the “LOW BAT” message enter:+ OFF key.
Your user code

When replacing batteries, use only those recommended by your installer.
Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and applications, provide 2–4 years of service. 3-volt
lithium batteries may provide from 4-7 years of operation. Actual battery life will depend on the environment in which the sensor isused, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as
humidity, high or low temperatures, and large swings in temperature may all lead to the reduction of actual battery life in an
installation.

Changing the LYNXR-EN System Battery
In the event of an AC power loss, the LYNXR-EN is powered by a rechargeable, nickel-metal hydride
battery pack. The battery pack should be replaced when a “LOW BAT” message with no zone number isdisplayed.
NOTE: The battery pack (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-SC or LYNXRCHKIT-HC) should be changed every
four years and must be replaced by a qualified service technician.
Following battery pack replacement, rechargeable batteries may take up to 48 hours to charge. The “LOW
BAT” message may be displayed after one minute, however it should clear within 4 hours or by entering
Test Mode.

WARNING!
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or fire or otheremergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety ofreasons. For example:• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor ordisconnect an alarm warning device.
• Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work without
power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put in properly.
Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if thesignal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not activate orprovide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may not work are
as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start
where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke
detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector, for example, may notsense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kindof fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking
in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children
playing with matches, or arson. Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector,
even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or
death.
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation
manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, andintrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes
place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking,painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability.
Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of protected area approaches thetemperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection performance can decrease.
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the otherside of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they
are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarmis muffled from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however
loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect themselvesfrom the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as
long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This
alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.
Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance.
Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure theirlives and property.
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones tolearn about these developments.
