[. . . ] Connection is made with a person at the CS Downloading computer and the account to be downloaded will be verbally identified. This will cause the control panel to react as if it received a request for a remote communications session, and to look for the standard panel-to-CS protocol. Once the standard connection is made, the necessary remote communications sessions can take place (upload, download, remote commands). Hang up the telephone to prevent interference that may affect upload/download data. The downloader software will automatically terminate the connection after remote communications end. - 20 - Using a Pager If programmed, the system can send messages to a pager. The messages are displayed as follows: ACCT E XXX where: "ACCT" = the 4-digit central station no. We suggest that you obtain the number from your system installer and record it here. These event codes are as follows: Openings = 0, Closings = 1, Alarm or Trouble = 9 the zone or user designation, depending on the event "E" = "XXX" = If multiple events occur, the signal for the highest-priority event is sent first. Events ranked from highest to lowest priority are alarm, trouble, open, and close. CHANGING THE PAGER PHONE NUMBER (FOLLOW-ME) You can change your pager follow-me phone number as follows if your installer enabled this feature: 1. Access pager number programming by pressing the following keys in sequence: [#], [5], and [8]. Plug the transformer into the AC outlet and secure with the restraining screw. (NOTE: The screw is not present on models sold in Canada. ) IMPORTANT: Use only batteries recommended by your installer as a replacement. The National Fire Protection Association publishes a standard for fire warning equipment (NFPA publication #72). Further information can be obtained by contacting: NFPA Public Affairs Dept. , Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269. If you have any further questions about the operation of your system, please contact your alarm company. - 23 - Recommendations On Smoke Detectors With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below. Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: A smoke detector installed outside of each separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family 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 attached garages.

The following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association: S LO ET BE OO DR M C PORCH 1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so that they can be heard by all occupants. OO DR M BE OO DR M TH BA BE 2nd FLOOR T KI CH EN BE OO DR M 2. One path of escape should lead to the door that permits normal exit from the building. The other is an alternative route, such as through a window, should your normal escape path be unpassable. [. . . ] Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of the protected area approaches the temperature range of 90º to 104º Fahrenheit (32º to 40º Celsius), the detection performance can decrease. - 30 - Limitations of This Alarm System (continued) Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers who are located on the other side 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 alarm is muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner, other appliances, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers. [. . . ]
