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 Customer Care Center in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over...

Congratulations on your ownership of an ADT Partitioned Security System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today, and millions of premises are protected by ADT systems. This system provides: Three forms of protection: burglary, fire* and emergency.
Page 6
Zones and Partitions The system sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones,” which are specific areas of protection (e.g., front door, kitchen window, etc.). Zone numbers are displayed at the touchpad when an alarm or trouble condition occurs on a sensor. Partitions provide two independent areas of protection, with each partition containing a group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without affecting other zones or users.
Page 7
Phone Access If included, a phone module permits you to access the system via a touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. You can receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the status of the security system. You can arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands remotely via the telephone, with voice confirmation provided after each command entry.

Your touchpads allow you to control all system functions. The touchpads feature the following: A telephone style (digital) keypad Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of all occurrences Built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and troubles. The sounder also "beeps"...
AWAY: All burglary zones, interior and perimeter, are armed. STAY: Perimeter burglary zones, such as protected windows and doors, are armed. Perimeter burglary zones armed INSTANT: and entry delay is turned off. BYPASS: This appears when one or more burglary protection zones have been bypassed.
1. DISPLAY WINDOW. Custom English Display Touchpads: 2- line, 32-character Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) touchpads that display protection point identification, system status, and messages. English Display Touchpads: Display protection zone ID and system status messages using pre-designated words in the LCD display.

ARMED READY AWAY STAY TEST BYPASS INSTANT CODE CHIME READY English Display Touchpad (Touchpads shown without swing-down front door) IMPORTANT! • When entering codes and commands, sequential key depressions must be made within 10 seconds of one another. If 10 seconds elapse without a key depression, the entry will be aborted and must be repeated from its beginning.
Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after arming your system in any arming mode and Custom Display touchpads display the message “You May Exit Now.”...
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "CANCELED ALARM"...

Used when you want to arm the system with persons staying inside (or if you have pets that are moving throughout the premises). The perimeter sensors are armed, but interior sensors are left disarmed. Exit delay begins (you can leave through the entry/exit door, if desired). An alarm sounds immediately if any protected perimeter window or non-entry/exit door is opened.

The “A”, “B”, “C”, and/or “D” keys on your touchpad may have been programmed for single-button arming. Note that while it will not be necessary to use a security code for arming, a security code must always be used to disarm the system. If Single-Button Arming is programmed: A function key has been assigned to a specific type of arming: STAY mode, Night-STAY mode, AWAY mode, or STEP-ARMING (see Step-Arming...
Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming and disarming. Red and green lights on the keyswitch plate indicate the status of your system as follows: Green Light: Lights when the system is disarmed and ready to be armed (no open zones).
Page 18
The OFF key is used to disarm the system, silence alarm and trouble sounds, and clear alarm memories. IMPORTANT: If you return and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT ENTER, but CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location. If you return after an alarm has occurred and the main sounder has shut itself off, the touchpad will beep rapidly upon your entering, indicating that an alarm has occurred during your absence.

The “A”, “B”, “C” or “D” keys can be used to automatically activate a series of commands of up to 16 keystrokes, if programmed for this function. These keystrokes, as a group, are called “macros” and are stored in the system's memory. Typical macro functions can include: - Arming sequences: STAY, Night-STAY, INSTANT, or AWAY - Bypassing particular zone(s)

Your system may be set up to automatically send alert messages to a pager as certain conditions occur in your system. The following events can be programmed by your installer to send a message to up to four pagers: arming, disarming, alarms, and trouble conditions. You can also program the system to send an automatic pager message to alert you in the event that someone has not arrived home (disarmed the system) within a defined period of time (see the Scheduling section for details on...
Page 27
Your system may be set up so you can manually send a message to up to four pagers. Your installer programs the paging function key and the pager phone numbers. Pressing the paging keys sends the message This message could mean “call home”, “call your office”, or any other prearranged meaning.
Your system lets you assign up to 45 different security codes for use by other users. Only the Master user or Partition Programmer can assign user codes to users. Users are identified by 2-digit user numbers 03-49 and are pre-assigned to either partition 1 or partition 2 (users 01-02 are reserved).
Page 29
The following lists the various command strings for adding user codes and attributes. Refer to the User Setup chart at the back of this manual for factory assignments of user attributes and to keep a record of user programming. NOTE: Partition Programmer code can be used only for user numbers assigned to that programmer’s partition.
Page 30
Each touchpad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's information. If the user is authorized, a touchpad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in the other partition by using the GOTO command. Refer to the GOTO section.
Page 31
If the user is authorized, a touchpad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in the other partition by using the GOTO command. You must use a Custom English touchpad to access another partition. Touchpads automatically return to their original partition after 2 minutes with no touchpad activity.

Your system may have been set up to use a common zone, which is Ask your installer if a an area shared by users of both partitions, such as a foyer or lobby. "common zone" was If so, please note the following: assigned.
Page 33
The system provides up to 16 end-user schedules (programmable by master/installer only), which can be used to control various types of events. Each schedule causes a defined event to start and stop (when appropriate) at a specified time. Schedules can be set to automatically repeat at various intervals. Schedules can be set for random starting, if desired.
