How Your
System
Communicates
to YouYour system responds to you through the use of panel voice messages, status beeps,
alarms, panel indicator lights, and to a numeric pager if programmed.
Panel Voice Messages
When you press the buttons on the panel or the touchpads, the panel responds with
voice messages. Panel voice can be enabled or disabled (see “Options”).
Note
The panel will not give voice
messages during an AVM
session. Talk to your security
system dealer to see if your
panel has the AVM option.These messages may respond with system information or prompt you to take further
action. For example, if you want to disarm the system and you press the DISARM but-
ton, the panel responds by announcing, “Please enter your access code.”
If you press a button and the feature has not been programmed, the panel voice will
respond with “Function not available.” An example of this would be pressing CHIME
Special Motion button when you have no motion sensors in your system.

Simon Security System10 To cancel an accidental alarm before the programmed dialer delay time expires, enter your access code. Guidelines for Preventing Accidental Alarms The following guidelines will go a long way toward preventing accidental alarms. Close doors and windows before you leave your house. Gather your belongings, so you can exit immediately after arming the system. Always enter and exit within the programmed delay times. Make sure you leave through a door that has a delay time set for it. Disarm your system immediately upon returning home. Be aware of the devices in your security system and learn how each one operates. If you have pets, ask your installer if you need pet lenses in your motion detectors. Check the location of your smoke detectors. Smoke detectors near bathrooms and kitchens can be tripped by steam and smoke from cooking. Take note of system beeps, voice announcements and indicator lights which indi- cate the current system status. How to Use an Off-Site PhoneYou may use an off-site phone to arm/disarm your panel, turn lights on and off, check system status, or conduct an audio session (ask your installer if you have this feature). How to gain access to the Control Panel: 1. Call the panel and let the phone ring twice then hang up. 2. Wait at least 10 seconds and call the panel again. You may wait up to 40 seconds before calling again. 3. The panel should answer on the first ring. You won’t hear any prompt when the system answers. 4. Press the * button on your telephone and you will hear system activated. At this point you may perform the actions listed in the following table of phone com- mands.

Simon Security System14 Note Codes are always needed to disarm the system. Depend- ing on the panel configura- tion, codes may be needed to arm the system. Check with the installer for your system configuration. Your system may be set up so that the master code or an access code is required when arming. If so, the panel will prompt you to enter a code when you attempt to arm the system. Note Because different codes can be entered using the same button presses you have to use caution when programming the panic code. You need to ensure that the panic code does not use the same button presses as other access codes. For example if the master code is 1234, do not program the panic code to be 2244. The panel would interpret these codes to be the same code. How to change an Access Code: 1.Open the cover of the panel. 2. The panel voice prompts you to Use numbered keys to enter ID.
