Simon Security System
User Interface
When the panel cover is closed, the panel buttons operate the security system. The
user operates the panel by pressing panel buttons or by using a touchpad. See the User
Manual for complete operation instructions.
When the panel cover is open, the buttons program the security system. The panel can
be programmed on-site by the installer or user, or from off-site using ToolBox
ware. See the "Programming" section of this manual for complete on-site program-
ming instructions. See the ToolBox manual and ToolBox on-line help for off-site
programming instructions.

Panel Tamper

If the panel cover is opened while the system is armed, an intrusion alarm occurs.
When the system status button is subsequently pressed, the panel says System Access
Alarm.

System Devices

The system can monitor up to 24 sensors and may use any of the following:
Door/Window Sensor (60-670)
For intrusion protection, install Door/Window sensors on all ground-floor doors and
windows. At a minimum, install them in the following locations:
• All easily accessible exterior doors and windows.
• Interior doors leading into the garage.
• Doors to areas containing valuables such as cabinets and closets.
Indoor Motion Sensor (60-639)
Indoor motion sensors are ideal whenever it is not practical to install door/window
sensors on every opening. Identify areas where an intruder is likely to walk through.
Large areas in an open floor plan, downstairs family rooms, and hallways are typical
locations for indoor motion sensors. For installations with pets, use the SAW Pet
Immune PIR (60-807).
Outdoor Motion Sensor (60-639)
Use outdoor motion sensors to detect motion in a protected outdoor area. Detected
motion in this protected area can sound chimes or turn on outside lights. Do not use
Outdoor Motion Sensors for intrusion protection.
Freeze Sensor* (60-742)
Freeze sensors detect low temperature conditions which may indicate a furnace fail-
ure. The sensor contains a bimetallic thermal switch connected to the built-in transmit-
ter. The sensor transmits an alarm signal to the panel when the surrounding
temperature drops to about 41°F (5°C). When the temperature rises to 50°F (10°C),
the sensor transmits a restore signal.
Water Sensor* (60-744)
Water sensors detect a water leak/rising water. The detector is connected to the sensor
by an 8-foot (2.4-meter) cable. Water that reaches both detector contact points acti-
vates the sensor, causing it to transmit an alarm signal.
Smoke Sensor (60-848-95)
Smoke sensors provide fire protection by causing an alarm to sound throughout the
house. You can add smoke sensors near sleeping areas and on every floor of the house.
Avoid areas that could have some smoke or exhaust such as attics, kitchens, above
fireplaces, dusty locations, garages, and areas with temperature extremes. In these
areas you may want to install Rate-of-Rise sensors to detect extreme temperature
changes. See "Emergency Planning" and the instructions packaged with the smoke
sensor for complete placement information.
