Introduction

This User Guide tells you how to operate your intruder alarm system. To simplify this User Guide we have assumed that the alarm system has been installed by a professional intruder alarm system installer (the installer), and that the system is operated in a “typical” way.
Aspects of your system that are not “typical” will be described by your installer.
NOTE: If you have any questions about your intruder alarm system, then consult your installer, see contact details at the front of this User Guide.

Codes
To operate the alarm system you will need to use a code. A code is 4 digits long, and can be any number from 0000 to 9999. By default user code 1 is [0][1][2][3] but you should change this as soon as possible.

Alarm System Operation

This booklet describes three versions of the alarm system. The Optima version has the keypad and indicators on the main control panel. The Accenta version has the keypad and indicators on a small remote LCD or LED keypad. You operate the alarm system by pressing buttons on the keypad and viewing the indicators. Both alarm systems work the same way. Both Accenta and Optima systems can be fitted with an optional remote keypad.
Personal Attack
If the installer has programmed a personal attack on the keypads and if you are under threat, or are being attacked, you can activate the alarm by pressing the 4 and 9 keys at the same time on any LED keypad. You can also press the two keys marked PA on the remote LCD keypad. The alarm system will produce a loud alarm sound, and the external siren will be turned on.

Fire Zones
Zones 7 and 8 on your alarm system may have a Fire or Smoke detector connected to it. In the event of a fire the alarm system will produce a distinctive two- tone fire alarm sound, and the outside siren will pulse 2 seconds on, 2 seconds off.
You should leave the premises immediately, and only re-enter when it is safe to do so.
The alarm can be silenced by entering your code.
Power Indicator
The Power indicator on the control panel or keypad will light whenever the mains power supply is present. If mains power fails then the Power indicator will go out, but the system will run from its backup battery for several hours. If the Power indicator goes out when mains power is present then a fault may have developed on your system and you should contact your installer.
Signaling Device
Your alarm system may have been fitted with a signaling device. This device uses the telephone line to send an alarm message to an Alarm Receiving Centre in the event of an alarm. The operator at the ARC may request the police to attend your premises.

How to Set the System

When you leave your premises you will need to set (or turn on) the intruder alarm system. Before setting the system you should ensure that the premises have been completely vacated and that all doors and windows are closed. Ensure that pets do not have access to the protected areas as they can cause a false alarm.
NOTE: The Accenta Remote LED keypad is not shown. It will have the same indications as the Optima compact panel with the built-in keypad.
NOTE: There will be no exit beeps if Silent Timed exit mode was programmed.
LCD Keypad: the Day LED should be on. The screen shows the day mode:

The system unsets with a double beep. The Day LED comes on indicating that the system is unset.

If any Zone, TA (Tamper), or PA (Attack) LED’s come on then an alarm has occurred, and an intrusion may have taken place. Seek assistance before investigating further as intruders may still be on the premises. Then reset the system.
When you enter your premises you will have a short period of time, usually 30 seconds, to enter your code. If you fail to do this the system will go into alarm. Enter your code to stop the alarm.

How to Part Set the System

If your installer has programmed your system for the part set operation you will be able to set some zones of the system while others remain unset. The part set operation is often used at night time, and it will permit you to freely walk around the bedrooms while the living area and outside doors are protected. Your system may have 2 part-set programs called Program 2 and Program 3.
Before part-setting the system you should ensure that all doors and windows are closed. Ensure that pets do not have access to the protected areas. Your installer may have instructed you to use a different keypad to the one normally used to set the system.

LCD Keypad:

The Day LED should be on. The screen shows the Day mode:
Enter your code [0][1][2][3]. The exit beep starts.
Press the [PROG] key. The exit tone stops.
Select part-set program [2] or [3]. The system will set after a short time. The Day LED goes out.

How to Silence an Alarm and Reset the System

If your system goes into alarm then be aware that intruders may be in the premises. Seek assistance before investigating the cause of the alarm.
LCD Keypad:

Enter your code [0][1][2][3]. The alarm will stop.
The screen alternates showing what caused the alarm and prompting for user reset

When two or more alarms have occurred, the first alarm will have an F below the zone number, Tamper or PA. Subsequent alarms will have a 1 indicating where the alarm has taken place.

Press [RESET]. The system resets and goes into day mode if there are no open Tampers, PA or Fire zones to cause a fault lockout.

The system can be reset by the user only if the installer has programmed it to do so. If the message Engineer Restore Required appears on the screen then the user will have to contact the installer.

After 30 seconds the set mode display appears.

LED Keypad:

Enter your code [0][1][2][3].

The alarm will stop, and the Zone, Tamper (TA) or Attack (PA) LED’s will come on to show the cause of the alarm.

NOTE: When 2 or more LEDs are on, the flashing indicator shows the first alarm, and the steady indicators show the second and subsequent alarms.

Press [RESET].
If the Zone, Tamper (TA), or Attack (PA) LED’s go out and the Day LED comes on then the system has been reset.

If any of the LEDs continue to flash then the system has been programmed to be reset by the installer. In this case, you must call the installer to reset the system. If all LED lights are steady (not flashing), and the keypad stops working, then the system has entered a fault lockout. You must call the installer to rectify this fault.

How to Omit Zones

If you cannot set the alarm system because a detector is faulty and in constant alarm you may need to omit its zone from the alarm system. A zone that has been omitted cannot cause an alarm. Omitted zones will be restored after the system is unset.
Before a zone can be omitted it has to be enabled by the installer as a Used Zone and as an Omit Allow zone.

LCD Keypad:

Enter your [4-digit code] to start the exit procedure (for more information see How to Set the System).
Press [OMIT] and the exit beep tone will stop, and the first used zone that can be omitted will appear on the display.
Press the zone [number] or [up arrow] to be omitted. The display will now show the zone as omitted. If a flat reject tone is heard, then the zone cannot be omitted.
Press [SET] or allow the system to continue to set.

NOTE: Zn = Zone number

LED Keypad:

Enter your [4-digit code] to start the exit procedure (for more information see How to Set the System).
Press [OMIT] and the exit beep tone will stop, and all
LEDs for used zones that can be omitted will come on.
Press the zone [number] to be omitted. The LED will now flash to show the zone as omitted. If a flat reject tone is heard, then the zone cannot be omitted.
Press [SET] or allow the system to set.

How to Quick Set the System

When you set the system you will usually have about 30 seconds to exit the premises. This also means that you need to wait 30 seconds for the system to set. You can reduce this time to just five seconds by carrying out a Quick Set.

Enter your [4-digit code] to start the exit procedure. The exit beep tone will start. (For more information see How to Set the System).
Press [SET] to Quick Set the system and the exit beep tone will change to a more rapid tone. The system will set in five seconds, and the exit tone will stop.

Single Key Setting

If enabled by the engineer, the setting process can be started by pressing Set, rather than entering a user code.

How to Set Up Chime Mode

Chime is a low-security facility for use when the system is unset. It is particularly useful in a shop to warn of customers’ presence, or in a house to warn when a back door has been opened. When a Chime zone detects movement the system will produce a brief two-tone sound, and the Zone LED will come on. To set any zone to Chime.

LCD Keypad:

The system should be in Day mode (System Unset).
Press [CHIME]. The screen will show the first zone that is already set up for Chime (possibly none).
Press the zone [number] to toggle it in and out of chime.
