Special Security Command Tones
Your keypad also contains a small speaker that allows it to alert
you to events as they occur on your system. Below are brief
descriptions of the different tones you will hear from the keypad:
Fire alert: Your keypad may sound a Þre tone to alert persons in
the vicinity to the alarm condition. This is in addition to the bell
output from the alarm panel.
Burglary alert: Your keypad may sound a burglary tone to alert
persons in the vicinity to the alarm condition. This is in addition to
the bell output from the alarm panel.
Key press tone: A short beep as you press a key on the keypad.
Prewarn tone: A continuous pulsed tone that sounds when you
open an entry delay door on a system that is armed (turned on)
reminding you to disarm the burglary protection.
Monitor tone: A short tone that sounds for one second whenever
a door or window is opened while you are using the zone monitor
function from the User Menu. See Zone Monitor.
Trouble tone: A steady tone indicating a trouble condition on your
system. Press a Select key to silence the trouble tone.
Zone Activity Check tone: A steady tone indicating no zone activity
has occurred on your system within the programmed period of
time. Press any key to silence the tone.
What to do when the trouble tone is sounding
You can silence the trouble tone by pressing any one of the top row
Select keys. This only silences the keypad and does not correct the
condition that originally caused the problem.
