Auxiliary Alarm
Your system can be designed to monitor one or more conditions that are not
directly related to security, but do require a prompt response to prevent
some other problem or physical damage from occurring. Typical auxiliary
alarms could indicated conditions such as furnace, freezer, or equipment
failures, water level, and so on. Although none of these conditions is a
security concern, early detection and appropriate action could save money
or property. Ask your security company representative for specifics in your
particular operation.
Emergency and Panic Alarms
A panic alarm is a user-activated alarm such as a touchpad panic button or
personal wireless panic transmitter. A panic alarm condition would indicate
that you are at home and manually signaling an emergency condition or
break-in attempt. Emergency alarms can be programmed to be sent to
service providers such as the police through your central station. You can
manually send this type of alarm by pressing one of the panic buttons on a
system touchpad (see page 9).
Access Codes
An access code is a confidential 4 to 6 digit number. You enter this code
into the system touchpads to program, arm and disarm, and command all
functions of the system. The 4724 supports up to 255 access codes.
Note: When selecting access codes for your system, do not use numbers
such as 1111, 2222, and so forth. While they are easy codes for you
to remember, they may also be easy codes to break.
Installer’s Code (Code 0)
Your installation company uses this special code to install and initially
program your system. It can also be used to arm and disarm your system,
both from the touchpads and from the central station (by telephone lines).
If you do not want the installation company to have access to your system
once it has been installed, ask the installer for the installation code and
instructions for changing it. Once you have changed the code, only you can
arm and disarm the system. If it becomes necessary to change the
programming of your system, you will have to give the installation company
the new code. Talk to your installer about the installation code. There are
many reasons why you might want your installation company to be able to
access your system at any time.
