The 4734 enables you to easily control a large facility with access for 1,000 users and provides your business with dependable, 24-hour protection. The 4734 system has been custom programmed and installed using the components, options, and features that most closely meet your needs. Because the installation is managed by your local security company, your system may include some features not covered in this manual or may lack some features that are discussed. It is important that you familiarize yourself with how the 4734 operates. Please read this manual thoroughly. Knowing how to fully operate the system will allow you to obtain the highest degree of security and will prevent false alarms. If you have any questions that are not covered in this manual, contact your alarm system installer. Your installer can also help you fill out the system data pages at the back of this guide. The following sections describe the capabilities of the system in general terms. Operation instructions begin in section 2 on page 14. System Components The major components of your Model 4734 Security System are: · · · · Sensors and detectors Control communication panel (4720 base unit) Card access stations Touchpads 1 4734user.doc Sensors The system can monitor up to 80 different zones, or protection points, within your home or business. A variety of sensors, including door contact switches, motion detectors, smoke detectors, and heat detectors can be used. Control panel The 4734's control panel is the electronic center of the system, the part housed in the metal cabinet. All sensors, card access stations, and touchpads are connected to the panel. The panel issues signals that activate warning tones and alarm bells. It also notifies your security company's central monitoring station when these signals occur. The control panel contains a standby battery that is constantly being charged to provide many hours of system operation if you should experience a power failure. Card access stations Card access stations are the devices that control access to your premises. They are located at the entry to secured areas. Users present or swipe cards (or enter codes) at the access station to gain access to the controlled access area. If the card or code is valid, the door is temporarily unlocked to allow the user to enter. Your installation may include as many as 15 access stations. Touchpads Touchpads are the system component most visible to you. You will use them to arm or disarm (turn on or turn off) the system; assign access codes; activate the chime or interior features; and perform all other system functions. Your system may include up to 15 touchpads distributed throughout your premises. The majority of the rest of the manual is devoted to teaching you how to use the touchpads to operate and program your system. 2 4734user.doc Central Monitoring Station While not an actual system component, the central monitoring station (referred to throughout the rest of this manual as the "central station") is important to your security. When an alarm occurs on your premises, a signal is sent, via the telephone lines, to the central station. Central station personnel dispatch the appropriate authorities when they receive the signal. IMPORTANT: To comply with industry standards, the 4734 is equipped with line seizure. This means that any time the system's dialer needs to communicate with the central station, it will NOT be possible to use any telephones that are on the same line(s) as the security system. Normally this condition will last less than one minute, but under adverse telephone circuit conditions, could last for as long as 15 minutes. Features Zones Zones are protection points within your building. A zone can be a room, a section of a room, or a group of rooms. The 4734 allows you to assign up to 80 different zones. Some special types of zones are described below. Perimeter and Interior Zones If you choose to divide your premises into "perimeter" and "interior" zones, you can operate security for them separately. Perimeter zones include all outside entries, doors, and windows. Interior zones are locations inside the premises where occupants can move about freely while still protected from intrusion. 3 4734user.doc Exit/Entry Delay Zones The exit delay gives you time to leave the building after arming the system. Your system may be programmed to beep during the delay period. If a delayed zone is still active (that is, if someone is still in the zone) at the moment the exit delay elapses, it will cause an immediate alarm. The entry delay gives you time to disarm the system after entering the building. A beep will sound during the delay period. If the NO DELAY light is on, all delays are ignored. If anyone enters a zone while the system is armed, an alarm will sound immediately. Chime Zones When the system is disarmed, chime zones emit a warning sound whenever anyone enters them. Multi-area System The 4734 can divide your premises into up to 8 "areas," or groups of zones, that can be armed and disarmed independently. Special menus display on the touchpad allowing you to control your system easily. See section 3.3 for information on how to control a multi-area system. If you and your installer have decided to set up a multiarea system, your installer will create the areas for you. You can control who has access to each area. See programming access rights section (section 4.11) for more information. Instructions for operating a multi-area system are found throughout this guide. Auto-arming System Your system can be programmed to arm or disarm automatically at specified times. 4 4734user.doc A programmed number of minutes before the system autoarms, the touchpads display the number of minutes until arming will occur. The touchpads also beep every 10 seconds during this period. If you are using this feature, your installer will perform the necessary programming. The auto-arm delay can be canceled or extended, if desired. See section 3.4 for specific instructions. Panic Keys The POL , FIRE and AUX keys on the touchpad are known as "panic keys." If your installer has enabled these keys, they can be used to quickly send a signal to the central station that a particular alarm condition has occurred. Typically POL is used for police emergencies, FIRE for fire emergencies, and AUX for other, nonmedical emergencies that may occur at your site. Duress Alarm Feature This feature sends a duress alarm to the central station. If you choose to use this feature your installer will program one or two digits to act as duress triggers. You would use these numbers to activate a silent alarm during a duress situation. For example, if you are forced to disarm the system during a hold-up, you would press the digit(s) as if they were part of your access code. Your central station would receive the signal but lights or messages would not display on your touchpad and no audible alarm would sound. See section 3.19 for special information on choosing access codes if you are using the duress alarm feature. Code 2 Feature If you choose to use this feature, you can allow secondary users (cleaners, babysitters, etc.) to disarm the system one time. See section 3.17 for more information. 5 4734user.doc Intercom and Telephone Features Optional accessories allow your touchpads to be used as intercoms (either two-way or listen-only) or as hands-free telephones. Types of Alarms When the system is in alarm, the touchpads beep and display the alarm location, and the system speakers produce the high volume sounds described below. The alarms are ranked in priority order. Fire If the 4734 senses a fire, a high volume, high pitch pulsing alarm will sound and the system will send a fire alarm signal to the central station. Panic These alarms, triggered manually whenever anyone presses one of the panic keys from the touchpad, produce a slowly alternating, high/low pitch constant tone. Intrusion An intrusion (or burglary) alarm causes the 4734 to sound a high volume, alternating high/low pitch constant tone and to send a report to the central station. Tamper Alarm Your system may be protected against attempts to disable it. Components such as outside bell or siren enclosures, the control cabinet, and telephone equipment can be protected from unauthorized access or tampering. Your system can be set up to monitor and report these conditions to the central station. Tamper alarms sound a high volume, alternating high/low pitch constant tone (same as intrusion). 6 4734user.doc Auxiliary Alarms Flooding and furnace failure are two examples of auxiliary alarms. You and your alarm installer will decide if your installation needs any auxiliary alarms. Auxiliary alarms produce alternating high/low pitch pulsed tones. Other Audible Signals Other conditions, besides alarms, that cause audible signals are: Trouble condition A one-second beep every few seconds while a trouble condition exists. (A trouble condition is a situation in your system that is not as it should be. It could be a door left or forced open, a sensor failure, or other system problem.) Exit/entry delay One beep sounds each second during the entry delay time. The signal may also be emitted during the exit delay. Door chime A series of beeps sounds each time a perimeter door is opened or closed. Access Codes The following paragraphs describe the types of access codes. See section 3.19 to learn how to change codes and for special information about choosing codes. Access codes are 4 to 6-digit codes that allow persons to arm, disarm, and control your system. Anyone who has been assigned an access code must keep the code confidential. There are several types of access codes. They are the main access code (sometimes called the "master system 7 4734user.doc code"), primary access codes, and secondary access codes (also called "Code 2"). Main access code Your main access code allows you to program the system, including change other code numbers, assign access rights, and reset the time display. This is a master control code number which must be written down and stored in a safe place. Without the main access code, it is virtually impossible for anyone to reprogram your system. NOTE 1: Because the main access code can activate the WALK TEST, a system test during which the 4734 is temporarily unable to respond to fire alarms, this code cannot be used by an end-user in a UL commercial fire installation. If your installation is UL Listed for commercial fire, your installer will do any reprogramming or other tasks that require the use of the main access code. NOTE 2: Another master code, called "Code 0" or "installer's code," allows your installer to program your system initially. You have a right to know what this code is and to change it. Upon your request, your installer will show you how to do so. Primary access codes Primary access codes allow the user to arm or disarm the system. Secondary access codes (Code 2 feature) Secondary codes are typically used in residential installations. House guests, cleaning persons, and babysitters are examples of persons who might need a secondary access code. Secondary access codes can disarm the system one time only. See secti ...
