About Your Security System
Your Security System has been designed to provide you with the greatest possible flexibility and con-
venience. Read this manual carefully and have your installer instruct you on your system's operation
and on which features have been implemented in your system. All users of this system should be
equally instructed in its use. Fill out the “System Information” page with all of your zone information
and access codes and store this manual in a safe place for future reference.
NOTE: Please consult your installer for further information regarding the false alarm reduction
features built into your system as all are not covered in this manual.
Fire Detection
This equipment is capable of monitoring fire detection devices such as smoke detectors and provid-
ing a warning if a fire condition is detected. Good fire detection depends on having adequate num-
ber of detectors placed in appropriate locations. This equipment should be installed in accordance
with NFPA 72 (N.F.P.A., Battery march Park, Quince MA 02269). Carefully review the Family Escape
Planning guidelines in this manual.
NOTE: Your installer must enable the fire detection portion of this equipment before it becomes
functional.
Testing
To ensure that your system continues to function as intended, you must test your system weekly.
Please refer to the “Testing your System” section in this manual. If your system does not function
properly, call your installing company for service.
Monitoring
This system is capable of transmitting alarms, troubles & emergency information to a central station. If you
initiate an alarm by mistake, immediately call the central station to prevent an unnecessary response.
NOTE: The monitoring function must be enabled by the installer before it becomes functional.
NOTE: This system has a communicator delay of 30 seconds. It can be removed, or it can be
increased up to 45 seconds by the installer.
NOTE: Ensure that your Installer verifies that your system is compatible with the Central Station
Receiver format at yearly intervals.
Maintenance
With normal use, the system requires minimum maintenance. Note the following points:
• Do not wash the security equipment with a wet cloth. Light dusting with a slightly moistened cloth
should remove normal accumulations of dust.
• DSC recommends replacing the standby batteries every 4-5 years.
• For other system devices such as smoke detectors, motion detectors, glassbreak detectors or door/
window contacts, consult the manufacturer’s literature for testing and maintenance instructions if
applicable.
General System Operation
Your security system comprises an integrated alarm control/keypad and various sensors and detec-
tors. The system is mounted by the main exit/entry location. The system is self-contained; electronics
and standby battery are housed within the keypad unit.
NOTE: Only the installer or service professional should have access to the system.
The security system has several zones of area protection. Each of these zones communicates to a sin-
gle wireless sensor (motion detectors, glassbreak detectors, door contacts, etc.) or to one or more
hard wired sensors. A sensor in alarm is indicated by messages on the LCD keypad.
Additional features include: Automatic Inhibit (Swinger Shutdown) for Alarm; Tamper and Trouble
signals after 3 occurrences in a given set period; and a Programmable Keypad Lockout option.
NOTE: For SIA CP-01 classified installations, the swinger shutdown feature is programmed such
that one or two trips will shut down the zone. The zone will be restored after a manual reset (by
entering the access code at the time of disarming the alarm system) or it will be reset automatically
after 48 hrs with no trips on any zones.

Controls & Indicators
IMPORTANT NOTICE
A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and – if included – your
central station of an emergency situation. Security systems are generally very reliable but they may
not work under all conditions and they are not a substitute for prudent security practices or life and
property insurance. Your security system should be installed and serviced by qualified security profes-
sionals who should instruct you on the level of protection that has been provided and on system
operations.
Language Selection
Your system can display messages in different languages.
1. Press and hold both

keys simultaneously.
keys, scroll through the available languages.
3. Press
to select your desired language.
Arming & Disarming the System
Stay Arming
Stay arming will bypass the interior protection (i.e. motion sensors) and arm the perimeter of the sys-
tem (i.e. doors and windows). Close all sensors (i.e. stop motion and close doors). The Ready (
indicator should be on.
)
Press and hold the Stay key for 2 seconds and/or enter your Access Code and do not leave the pre-
mises. During the setting state (exit delay active), the Armed ( ) and Ready ( ) indicators will light.
When the exit delay is completed, the alarm system is armed/set and this is indicated on the keypad
as follows: the Ready ( ) indicator will turn off, the Armed ( ) indicator will remain on.
The Armed ( ) indicator and a bypass message will be displayed. The system will automatically
bypass certain interior sensors (i.e. motion sensors).
NOTE: For SIA FAR listed panels, the Stay Arming Exit Delay will be twice as long as the Away
Arming Exit Delay.
NOTE: If your system is installed in accordance with SIA CP-01 Standard for False Alarm
Reduction then the security system will arm in the Stay Armed mode if the exit delay time expires
and no exit has been made.

at the keypad. All inte-
Night zones are only armed in Away mode, this permits limited movement within the premises when
the system is fully armed. Ensure that your installer has provided you with a list identifying zones pro-
grammed as night zones.
When the interior zones have been activated (i.e.,
) you must enter your access code to dis-
arm the system to gain access to interior areas that have not been programmed as night zones.
Silent Exit Delay
If the system is armed using the Stay key or using the ’No Entry’ Arming method (
code]), the audible progress annunciation (keypad buzzer) will be silenced and the exit time will be
doubled for that exit period only.
[access
Away Arming
Close all sensors (i.e. stop motion and close doors). The Ready ( ) indicator should be on.
To arm, press and hold the Away Key for 2 seconds and/or enter your Access Code, or press
to Quick Arm. During the setting state (exit delay active) the Armed ( ) and Ready ( ) indicators will
turn on, and the keypad will sound one beep per second. You now have ____ seconds to leave the
premises (please check with your installer to have this time programmed). An audible annunciation,
whose pulsating rate is distinctly different, will sound during the last ten seconds of the exit delay to
warn person(s) that the exit delay is running out. To cancel the arming sequence, enter your access
code.
When the exit delay is completed, the alarm system is armed/set and this is indicated on the keypad
as follows: the Ready ( ) indicator will turn off, the Armed ( ) indicator will remain on and the key-
pad will stop sounding.
NOTE: If your system is installed in accordance with SIA CP-01 Standard for False Alarm
Reduction then the violation, restoral followed by a second violation of the entry/exit zone before
the end of the exit delay will restart the exit delay.
Quick Exit
If the system is armed and you need to exit, use the Quick Exit function to avoid disarming and
rearming the system. Press and hold the Quick Exit key for 2 seconds or press
. You now have
2 minutes to leave the premises through your exit door. When the door is closed again, the remain-
ing exit time is cancelled.
Bell/Siren Sounds After Away Arming
Audible Exit Fault
In an attempt to reduce false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault is designed to notify you of an improper
exit when arming the system. In the event that you fail to securely close the Exit/Entry door during
the allotted exit delay period, the system will sound the alarm to indicate an improper exit.
Your installer will tell you if this feature has been enabled on your system. If this occurs:
1. Re-enter the premises.
2. Enter your [access code] to disarm the system. You must do this before the entry delay timer
expires.
3. Follow the Away arming procedure again, ensure that the entry/exit door(s) are secured.
Arming Error

arm (i.e. sensors are open), or if an incorrect user code has been entered. If this happens, ensure all
sensors are secure, press
and try again.
Disarming
Enter your access code to disarm anytime the system is armed (Armed ( ) indicator is on). The key-
pad will sound a continuous tone after the entry delay has been initiated by opening the entry/exit
door. Enter your code within _____ seconds to avoid an alarm condition (check with your installer to
have this time programmed).
Disarming Error
If your code is invalid, the system will not disarm and a 2-second error tone will sound. If this hap-
pens, press
and try again.

Remote Arming and Disarming
The system can be armed and/or disarmed (if programmed by the installer) using a remote control
device (wireless key). When arming the system by using the Arm button on the wireless key, the system
will acknowledge the command by sounding a single bell squawk and when disarming using the Dis-
arm button on the wireless key the system will acknowledge the command by sounding two bell
squawks . Three squawks heard when disarming with the disarm button indicates that that an alarm
occurred while the system was armed. If you are unsure of the cause of the alarm, proceed with cau-
tion.
Emergency Keys
Press the
(F),
(A) or

(P) key may or may not sound the bell depending on Installer
NOTE: The Fire keys can be disabled by the installer.
When Alarm Sounds
The system can generate 2 different alarm sounds:
• Continuous Siren = Intrusion (Burglary Alarm)
• Temporal / Pulsed Siren = Fire Alarm
Intrusion (Burglary) Alarm Continuous Siren
NOTE: If you are unsure of the source of the alarm, proceed with caution! If the alarm was
accidental, enter your Access Code to silence the alarm. If the alarm system is disarmed within the
programmed Abort Window (check with the installer if this option has been enabled on your system
and what is the transmitter delay time programmed), no alarm transmission to the Central Station
will occur. Starting at the end of the Abort Window there is a five minute Cancel window, during
which a user can cancel, by entering his access code, an alarm that has been previously transmitted.
A cancel signal will be transmitted to the Central Station and the alarm system will also annunciate
that the cancel signal was transmitted. Call your central station to avoid a dispatch.
Fire Alarm Pulsed Siren
Follow your emergency evacuation plan immediately!
If the fire alarm was accidental (i.e. burned toast, bathroom steam, etc.), enter your Access Code to
silence the alarm. Call your central station to avoid a dispatch.
2-Way Audio Operation (SCW9047 only)
If programmed by the installer, this feature allows the monitoring station to initiate a 2-way audio
session when an alarm has been received. This feature is used to verify the nature of the alarm or
determine the type of assistance required by the occupant.

[ꢀ][5][Master Code] (when disarmed)
The [ꢀ][5] User’s Programming command is used to program additional access codes.
User Codes - User Codes 1-16 are available for the System.
Master Code (Access Code 40) - The Master Code has all of the attributes listed in the Program-
mable Attributes list below except for Duress (2) and One Time Use (8) and is required to program all
Supervisor Code attributes.
Supervisor Codes - These codes are always valid when entering the
User Code Program-
ming section. However, these codes can only program additional codes which have equal or lesser
attributes. Once programmed, the Supervisor Codes receive the Master Code’s attributes. These
attributes are changeable. Any User Code can be made a supervisor code by enabling User Code
Attribute 1 (please see below for details).
Duress Codes - Duress codes are standard User Codes that will transmit the Duress Reporting Code
whenever the code is entered to perform any function on the system. Any User Code can be made a
Duress Code by enabling User Code Attribute 2 (please see below for details).
One Time Use Code - This code permits temporary access to the system for a 24 Hr. time
period. During the 24 Hr. period, the temporary user may disarm the system once. There is no
restriction on the number of times the temporary user may arm the system during the time
period.
NOTE: Duress codes are not valid when entering [ꢀ][5], [ꢀ][6] or [ꢀ][8] sections.
NOTE: Access codes cannot be programmed as a duplicate or as a “Code +/- 1”.
User Code Attributes
1. The default attributes of a new code will be the attributes of the code used to enter
whether it is a new code or an existing code being programmed.
2. System Master (Code 40) has Attribute 3 ON by default.
NOTE: These attributes are not changeable.
Inherent Attributes (all codes except installer)
Arm / Disarm - Any Access Code will be valid for arming and disarming the system.

Guidelines for Locating Smoke Detectors
Research has shown that all hostile fires in homes generate smoke to a greater or lesser extent.
Experiments with typical fires in homes indicate that detectable quantities of smoke precede
detectable levels of heat in most cases. For these reasons, smoke alarms should be installed out-
side of each sleeping area and on each storey of the home.
The following information is for general guidance only and it is recommended that local fire
codes and regulations be consulted when locating and installing smoke alarms.
It is recommended that additional smoke alarms beyond those required for minimum protec-
tion be installed. Additional areas that should be protected include: the basement; bedrooms,
especially where smokers sleep; dining rooms; furnace and utility rooms; and any hallways not
protected by the required units.
On smooth ceilings, detectors may be spaced 9.1m (30 feet) apart as a guide. Other spacing
may be required depending on ceiling height, air movement, the presence of joists, uninsulated
ceilings, etc. Consult National Fire Alarm Code NFPA 72, CAN/ULC-S553-M86 or other appro-
priate national standards for installation recommendations.
• Do not locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or gabled ceilings; the dead air space in
these locations may prevent the unit from detecting smoke.
• Avoid areas with turbulent air flow, such as near doors, fans or windows. Rapid air movement
around the detector may prevent smoke from entering the unit.
• Do not locate detectors in areas of high humidity.
o
o
• Do not locate detectors in areas where the temperature rises above 38 C (100 F) or falls
o
o
below 5 C (41 F).
• Smoke detectors should always be installed in accordance with NFPA 72, the National Fire
Alarm Code. Smoke detectors should always be located in accordance with:
‘Smoke detectors shall be installed outside of each separate sleeping area in the immediate vi-
cinity of the bedrooms and on each additional storey of the family living unit, including base-
ments and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics. In new construction, a smoke detector
also shall be installed in each sleeping room’.’Split level arrangement: Smoke detectors are re-
quired where shown. Smoke detectors are optional where a door is not provided between liv-
ing room and recreation room’.

Household Fire Safety Audit
Read this section carefully for important information about fire safety.
Most fires occur in the home. To minimize this danger, we recommend that a household fire
safety audit be conducted and a fire escape plan be developed.
1. Are all electrical appliances and outlets in a safe condition? Check for frayed cords, overloaded
lighting circuits, etc. If you are uncertain about the condition of your electrical appliances or
household service, have a professional evaluate these units.
2. Are all flammable liquids stored safely in closed containers in a well-ventilated cool area? Clean-
ing with flammable liquids should be avoided.
3. Are fire-hazardous materials (matches) well out of reach of children?
4. Are furnaces and wood-burning appliances properly installed, clean and in good working order?
Have a professional evaluate these appliances.
Fire Escape Planning
There is often very little time between the detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly. It is thus
very important that a family escape plan be developed and rehearsed.
1. Every family member should participate in developing the escape plan.
2. Study the possible escape routes from each location within the house. Since many fires occur at
night, special attention should be given to the escape routes from sleeping quarters.
3. Escape from a bedroom must be possible without opening the interior door.
Consider the following when making your escape plans:
• Make sure that all border doors and windows are easily opened. Ensure that they are not painted
shut, and that their locking mechanisms operate smoothly.
• If opening or using the exit is too difficult for children, the elderly or handicapped, plans for res-
cue should be developed. This includes making sure that those who are to perform the rescue
can promptly hear the fire warning signal.
• If the exit is above the ground level, an approved fire ladder or rope should be provided as well as
training in its use.
• Exits on the ground level should be kept clear. Be sure to remove snow from exterior patio doors
in winter; outdoor furniture or equipment should not block exits.
• Each person should know of a predetermined assembly point where everyone can be accounted
for (e.g., across the street or at a neighbor’s house). Once everyone is out of the building, call the
Fire Department.
• A good plan emphasizes quick escape. Do not investigate or attempt to fight the fire, and do not
gather belongings or pets as this wastes valuable time. Once outside, do not re-enter the house.
Wait for the fire department.
• Write the fire escape plan down and rehearse it frequently so that should an emergency arise,
everyone will know what to do. Revise the plan as conditions change, such as the number of
people in the home, or if there are changes to the building’s construction.
• Make sure your fire warning system is operational by conducting weekly tests. If you are unsure
about system operation, contact your installing dealer.
• We recommend that you contact your local fire department and request further information on
fire safety and escape planning. If available, have your local fire prevention officer conduct an in-
house fire safety inspection.

WARNING Please Read Carefully
Note to Installers
■ Motion Detectors
This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact
with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warn-
ing to the attention of the users of this system.
Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as
shown in their respective installation instructions. They cannot discrimi-
nate between intruders and intended occupants. Motion detectors do not
provide volumetric area protection. They have multiple beams of detec-
tion and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by
these beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceil-
ings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or windows. Any
type of tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking,
painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows or
any other part of the detection system will impair its proper operation.
Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in tempera-
ture. However their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient tem-
perature rises near or above body temperature or if there are intentional or
unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection area. Some of these
heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves, barbecues, fireplaces, sun-
light, steam vents, lighting and so on.
System Failures
This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible.
There are circumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other types
of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any alarm system of
any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as
expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these reasons may
be:
■ Inadequate Installation
A security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate
protection. Every installation should be evaluated by a security profes-
sional to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Locks and
latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended.
Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building materials must be of
sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection
expected. A reevaluation must be done during and after any construction
activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police department is highly rec-
ommended if this service is available.
■ Warning Devices
Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn peo-
ple or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If
warning devices are located on a different level of the residence or
premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awak-
ened. Audible warning devices may be interfered with by other noise
sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appli-
ances, or passing traffic. Audible warning devices, however loud, may not
be heard by a hearing-impaired person.
■ Criminal Knowledge
This system contains security features which were known to be effective
at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent
to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It
is important that a security system be reviewed periodically to ensure that
its features remain effective and that it be updated or replaced if it is found
that it does not provide the protection expected.
■ Telephone Lines
If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service
or busy for certain periods of time. Also an intruder may cut the telephone
line or defeat its operation by more sophisticated means which may be
difficult to detect.
■ Access by Intruders
Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a
sensing device, evade detection by moving through an area of insufficient
coverage, disconnect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the
proper operation of the system.
■ Insufficient Time
There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended,
yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their
inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is
monitored, the response may not occur in time to protect the occupants or
their belongings.
■ Power Failure
Control units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other secu-
rity devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If a
device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even
if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition
and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any inter-
ruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does
not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied
by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a
security system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately
conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as
intended.
■ Component Failure
Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as
possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a
component.
■ Inadequate Testing
Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as
intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance. The complete
system should be tested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an
attempted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind
of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should
include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices
and any other operational devices that are part of the system.
■ Security and Insurance
■ Failure of Replaceable Batteries
This system’s wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several
years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is
a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions
such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature
fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting
device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need
to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular test-
ing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.
■ Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices
Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could
include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jam-
ming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.
Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for prop-
erty or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property
owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or mini-
mize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.
■ System Users
A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly
due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the
device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important
that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm sys-
tem and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an
alarm.
■ Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occu-
pants of a fire for a number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke
detectors may have been improperly installed or positioned. Smoke may
not be able to reach the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is in a
chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke
detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level of the resi-
dence or building.
Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of
burning. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well.
Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by care-
lessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions,
escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded elec-
trical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.
Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circum-
stances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape
in time to avoid injury or death.
