This control will provide you with years of reliable operation when properly installed and maintained. To maximize the benefits of your Security System, it is important to carefully read the entire contents of this manual and become familiar with all control operations. Your Security Company Representative has recorded confidential information about your system in this manual, therefore, you should store it in a secure place. Contact your Security Company Representative immediately with any questions. It is important to note however, that no security system provides total protection over life or property, nor can it detect intrusion or other conditions in all circumstances. Ask your Security Company Representative to fully review the features of your system, indicate areas of potential risk, and detail recommendations for future upgrades to the system. The following is a list of general precautions you should follow to maximize the benefits of your security system: 1. The system must be tested at least once per week to ensure proper operation. Contact your Security Company Representative for testing procedures and scheduling of a regular maintenance program. 2. If the system is malfunctioning, have it serviced by a qualified professional as soon as possible. 3. If the electrical system of the building is altered, be sure that the changes do not create an interruptible power supply to the control panel. 4. If the telephone system is serviced, test the security system to ensure that communication to the Central Station is intact. 5. Motion detectors are designed to detect specific types of motion within a defined area. Be sure that you understand which areas are protected and under what conditions the system is active (temperature and time variations, etc.). 6. Smoke detection devices cannot detect all types of fire under all circumstances. Have your Security Company Representative explain the limitations of your fire system. Have smoke detectors cleaned and tested on a regular basis. 7. Security systems rely upon electrical power as a primary power source. When the electrical power fails, the control is powered by a standby battery. The standby battery is automatically checked by the system and should be replaced by a qualified service technician at regular intervals. 8. If upon returning to the building, you discover that an alarm has occurred, DO NOT ENTER THE PREMISES. Immediately contact the proper authorities. 9. Be sure to inform your neighbors that a security system has been installed. Also explain the meanings of the various audible signals and ask them to contact the appropriate authorities upon activation of an alarm. 10. The ZX200/ZX210 and the ZX400/ZX410/ZX440F Security Controls are UL Listed for Grade A Household Burglary and UL requires that audible burglar alarms be sounded by a bell and fire alarms by a horn. For combination burglar and fire alarm systems, the sounder will emit a temporal tone for fire alarms and a steady tone for burglar alarms. The fire alarm signal takes priority over the burglar bell. 11. UL requires that exit times not exceed 60 seconds. Entrance times may not exceed 45 seconds. Cutoff time for siren/bell cannot be less than 4 minutes for residential fire and burglary and 15 minutes for commercial burglary. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of Contents Operating Your System
