PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTION For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or commercial premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building. In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system so that alarm signals can still be sent to the Central Monitoring Station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over the phone lines). EARLY WARNING FIRE DETECTION Early warning fire detection is important in a home. Smoke and heat detectors have played a key role in reducing fire deaths in the United States.

Press and hold the programmed Paging Key for at least 2 seconds (wait for beep), then press the pager number* representing the pager intended to receive the message. The recipient, on seeing the 999­9999 message, will understand the prearranged meaning of this signal. * If no number is pressed, the message is sent to pager 1.

H\3DJLQJ You can program a schedule that causes a pager report to be sent if the system is not DISARMED by the scheduled time (see Scheduling section, event "03"). For example, a working parent might want a message to be sent to a pager if their child did not arrive home from school and disarm the system by a certain time. If programmed, the message that is sent is: 7 7 7 ­ 7 7 7 7 . ­ 27 ­ 6HFXULW\&RGHV$XWKRULW\/HYHOV $ERXW6HFXULW\&RGHV Your installer assigned a master code that is used to perform all system functions. In addition, you can assign different security codes for use by other users (FA168CPS provides 46 additional codes; FA148CP provides 30 additional codes). · Only the System Master and Partition Master can assign user codes to users. · Users are identified by 2-digit user numbers and are pre-assigned to either partition 1 or partition 2 (FA168CPS). · Only the Installer or System Master can change user partitions. · In addition to a security code, each user is assigned various system attributes. · User codes can be used interchangeably within a partition 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 guest code described below. Choose a user number from the set of users assigned to the partition in which the user will be operating, and assign a 4-digit security code. Assign other attributes as necessary (see attributes on the next page). NOTE: The factory settings are designed to meet most normal user situations. [. . . ] 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 themselves from 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. [. . . ]
