Security FAQs

The CHIME mode alerts you to the opening of a perimeter door or window while the system disarmed.  When Chime mode is activated:

• Three tones sound at the keypad whenever a perimeter door or window is opened.
• Interior zones do not produce a tone when they are faulted.
• Pressing the READY key will display the open protection points.
• Chime mode can be used only while the system is disarmed.

To turn Chime Mode on/off (security system must be disarmed):

User Code + 9 [chime]

The CHIME message appears when on.  Perimeter zones will cause a tone when faulted.  The CHIME message disappears when Chime mode if off.

If you have a Voice Keypad; you can set the voice to announce faulted (opened) entry/exit or perimeter zones whenever normal Chime mode is on.

To turn Voice Shime Mode on or off:

# + 0 + 2 + 4 (normal Chime mode must be on first)

When Voice Chime is on, faulted zones cause a voice status announcement, chime and display.  When off, the sounder still provides chime if normal Chime mode is on.
