SYSTEM OVERVIEW
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.
General
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. Your system
consists of at least one touchpad which provides control of system operation, and includes
various sensors which provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus smoke or
combustion detectors designed to provide early warning in case of fire.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status,
display appropriate information on the touchpad(s) used with the system, and initiate
appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or
status messages over the phone lines to a Customer Care Center.
A Partitioned
System
Simply stated, a partitioned system is a single physical alarm system that provides independent
areas of protection intended for use by independent users. For the most part, you need not
know about other users and their structure in the system, but from time to time, you may see
display messages which indicate the system is in use by another user; this is normal. A
partitioned system may also have a "common zone" area, which is an area shared by users of
both partitions. Refer to the COMMON ZONE OPERATION section for details on using this
feature.
Zones
Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the
sensing device on your Entry/Exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices
on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These numbers will appear on the
display, along with a description for that zone (if programmed), when an alarm or trouble
condition occurs.
– 4 –
SYSTEM OVERVIEW (Continued)
Burglary
Protection
Your system provides three modes of burglary protection: STAY, AWAY, and INSTANT, and
allows you to BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the system armed. You must
turn on or "arm" the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary
alarms. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening of protected
doors and windows while the system is disarmed. Refer to the other sections of this manual for
procedures for using these features.
The following table lists the four different arming modes and the results of each.

Security Codes
At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal four-digit security code, known only to
you. You must enter the security code when arming and disarming the system, and when
performing other system functions. As an additional safety feature, other users who do not have
a need to know your code can be assigned different security codes. Refer to the SECURITY
CODES section for procedures on adding security codes to the system.
The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will sound an
alarm if a fire condition is detected. A key on the touchpad will enable you to manually initiate a
fire alarm, if necessary. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information
concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes.
Fire Protection
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, both the touchpad and external sounders will sound, and the touchpad
will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. If your system is connected to a Customer Care
Center, an alarm message will also be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the
system.
– 5 –
SYSTEM OVERVIEW (Continued)
Memory of Alarm
When an alarm condition occurs, the touchpad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that
caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm (ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains displayed until
it is cleared by disarming the system (see DISARMING THE SYSTEM section).
Phone Access &
Voice
Your system may include a voice module that will permit you to access the system via a Touch-
tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. The phone access feature will enable
you to do the following:
Response
Capability
• Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the status of the
security system.
• Arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands via the telephone, with
voice confirmation provided after each command entry.
Complete information regarding the use of this feature is provided in a separate manual entitled
PHONE ACCESS USER'S GUIDE, which accompanies the voice module.
Paging Feature
If the paging feature has been programmed for your system, a pager will respond to certain
conditions as they occur in your system. The pager will display code numbers indicating the
type of condition that has occurred. Refer to the PAGING FEATURE section later in this manual
for detailed information.
Single-Button Paging: The touchpads have a special key (identified as the “D” key) which
may be used to signal a Pager. The message displayed on the pager when this key is pressed is
999–9999. This code could mean “call home”, “call your office”, or whatever you decide this
code will mean. See SINGLE-BUTTON PAGING FEATURE section.
Single-Button
Arming Feature
If programmed for your system, keys A and B on the touchpads may have been programmed for
single-button arming without the use of a security code, as follows:
Check with your installer
if single-button arming is
present in your system.
Key A, when pressed for 2 seconds, will arm all protection (AWAY mode).
Key B, when pressed for 2 seconds, will arm the perimeter (STAY mode).
– 6 –
ENTRY/EXIT DELAYS
General
Information
Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever you arm
your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without
setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any arming command, and
applies to all modes of arming protection. If programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout
the exit delay period.
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the designated
entrance door. But you must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm
will occur. The touchpad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the
system. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The first is for your primary entrance and
the second can be used for a secondary entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to
the touchpad to disarm the system.
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the INSTANT arming mode. This
mode provides greater security while on the premises or while away for extended periods of
time.
See your installer for your delay times.

ENTRY/EXIT DELAYS (Continued)
Exit Alarms
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" or "CA" is displayed on the touchpad,
along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to the Customer Care
Center. To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear
the display, enter your code plus OFF.
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or interior
zone is still open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is sent to the
Customer Care Center. The message ""EXIT ALARM" or "EA" is displayed on the touchpad,
along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. To stop the alarm, the system must be
disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF a second time.
To minimize false alarms
sent to the Customer
Care Center, your
system may have been
programmed for this fea-
ture. Ask your installer if
"Exit Alarm" is active for
your system.
Exit Alarm Active
An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two minutes after
the end of the exit delay.
COMMON ZONE OPERATION
Your system may have been set up to use a common zone, which is an area shared by users of
both partitions, such as a foyer or lobby. If so, please note the following:
Ask your
installer if a common
zone was assigned.
• The common zone will sound and report alarms only when both partitions are armed. If only
one partition is armed, the system ignores faults on the common zone.
• Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other
partition will not be able to arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is
corrected.
• If either partition is armed and the other is in chime mode, the common zone will not chime.
The common zone will chime if both partitions are disarmed and either is in chime mode.
• Faults on the common zone are displayed on touchpads in both partitions.
• Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.

ABOUT THE TOUCHPADS
Your touchpads allow you to control all system functions. The touchpads feature a telephone
style (digital) touchpad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location
of all occurrences.
General
The touchpads also feature a built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and troubles.
The touchpads also "beep" during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay
times, in CHIME mode, and when depressing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press).
IMPORTANT: If the touchpad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that
an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises.
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
There are two basic types of touchpads – an English display touchpad and a Custom
English display touchpad (both described below). English display and Custom English
display touchpads are functionally the same, even though they have different types of
displays. Both types of touchpads are shown on page 12.
2-Line Custom 2-line Custom English Display touchpads feature a 2-line, 32-character alphanumeric LCD
English Display which can display system messages in friendly English. These touchpads can also be

USING DEVICE COMMANDS
General
Information
Your system may be set up so that certain lights or other devices can be turned on or off by
using the device command from the touchpad. Ask your installer if this has been done in your
system. If programmed for your system, some devices may activate automatically upon certain
system conditions. In this case, the following commands can be used to override the device
activation. See your installer for a full explanation of this feature.

PAGING FEATURE
If the paging feature has been programmed, a pager will respond to certain conditions as they occur in your system by
displaying a 7-digit system status code that will indicate the type of condition that has occurred. In some cases, the 7-
digit code may be preceded by 16 digits, which can consist of a PIN number, Subscriber account number, or any
additional data that you may wish to have sent to the pager in addition to the 7-digit system status code.
The entire pager display format is as follows:
3-digit Event Code
Optional 16 digits
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA – BBB – CCCC
4-digit User or Zone No.
A = Optional 16-digits for Account numbers, PIN numbers, or any
other data. This information must be programmed by the
installer.
The 3-digit Event Codes (BBB) that can be
displayed are:
911 = Alarms. The 4-digit number (CCCC) following this
B = A 3-digit code that describes the event that has occurred in
code will be the zone number that has caused the alarm.
your system (see explanation for event codes on the right).
811 = Troubles. The 4-digit number (CCCC) following
this code will be the zone number that has caused the
trouble.
C = A 4-digit User or Zone number, depending on the type of event
that has occurred. For alarms and troubles, these digits
represent the zone number. For openings (disarming) and
closings (arming), these digits represent the user number. In
this system, the first 2 digits will always be “00” (e.g., 0004
will be displayed for zone number 4). Note that single-digit
user or zone numbers are always preceded by a zero.
101 = Open (system disarmed). The 4-digit number
(CCCC) that follows this code will be the user number.
102 = Close (system armed). The 4-digit number
(CCCC) that follows this code will be the user number.
Examples of typical pager displays follow. Not included in the examples below are the optional 16 digits (preceding the
7-digit status code) that may have been programmed by the installer for additional data.
Example 1. Pager displays: 9 1 1 –0 0 0 4 =System is reporting an alarm (911) caused by a fault on zone 4 (0004).
Example 2. Pager displays: 1 0 2–0 0 0 5 = System is reporting a closing–system arming (102) by user 5 (0005).
Single-button paging, using the “D” key on the touchpad, is also possible (see SINGLE-BUTTON PAGING FEATURE
on a previous page).

SECURITY CODES
General
Information
As an additional safety feature, other users who do not have a need to know your code can be
assigned different security codes. These secondary users are identified by "user numbers,"
which are selected when assigning a user's security code. You can assign up 14 additional user
codes (user numbers 03-16), including the babysitter and duress codes. Note that the master
(primary) user of the system is the only one who can assign codes to secondary (or temporary)
users, and is user number 02; user number 01 is reserved for the installer of the system.
All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions (a system armed with
one user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the babysitter
code described below.
Babysitter Code This code can be used to arm the system in assigned partitions, but cannot disarm the system
unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to someone (such
as a babysitter) who has a need to arm/disarm the system only at certain times. The babysitter
code is assigned to user 15. The user of this code should not use the “Quick Arming” feature
described below.
Duress Code
This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm the system under threat.
When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the Customer Care Center of
your situation, if that service has been provided. Duress code is assigned to user 16.
Important: This code is useful only when the system is connected to the Customer Care
Center.

In The Event Of Telephone Operational Problems
In the event of telephone operational problems, disconnect the control from the phone line by removing the plug from
the phone wall jack. We recommend that your installer demonstrate this disconnection on installation of the system. Do
not attempt to disconnect the phone connection inside the control. Doing so will result in the loss of your phone lines. If
the regular phones work correctly after the control has been disconnected from the phone wall jack, the control has a
problem and you should immediately call for service. If upon disconnection of the control, there is still a problem on the
phone line, notify the telephone company that they have a problem and request prompt phone repair service. The user
may not under any circumstances attempt any service or repairs to the security system. Repairs must be made only by
ADT authorized service (see the LIMITED WARRANTY statement for information on how to obtain service).

FIRE ALARM SYSTEM (IF INSTALLED)
General
Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, for continuous protection. In the
event of an emergency, the strategically located smoke and heat detectors will
automatically send signals to your system, triggering a loud, interrupted pulsed sound*
from the Touchpad(s). This sound will also be produced by any external sounders. A FIRE
message will appear at your Touchpad and remain on until you silence the alarm (see
below for silencing fire alarms).
* Temporal pulse sounding is produced for Fire alarms, as follows:
3 pulses–pause–3 pulses–pause–3 pulses–pause. . . , repeated.

steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:
1. Plan on your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders warning all
occupants.
CLOSET
BEDROOM
2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should
lead to the door that permits normal exit from the building. The other may be a
window, should your path be unpassable. Station an escape ladder at such
windows if there is a long drop to the ground.

MAINTAINING YOUR SYSTEM
Taking Care of
Your System
The components of your security system are designed to be as maintenance-free as possible.
However, to make sure that your system is in reliable working condition.
1. Test your system weekly.
2. Test your system after any alarm occurs (see TESTING THE SYSTEM).
Silencing Low
Battery Warning
Tones at the
Touchpad
You can silence the touchpad’s warning tones by pressing the OFF key, but the touchpad's
low battery message display will remain on as a reminder that you have a low battery condition in
one or more of your sensors. When you replace the weak battery with a fresh one, the sensor
will send a "good battery" signal to the control as soon as the sensor is activated
(opening/closing of door, window, etc.), causing the low battery display to turn off. If the sensor
is not activated, the display will automatically clear within approximately 1 hour.
Replacing
Batteries in
Wireless
Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects a low
battery in any wireless sensor, including smoke detectors, the optional personal emergency
transmitter, and the optional portable wireless touchpad. (A low battery in a portable wireless
touchpad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the wired touchpad will display
“00”.)
Sensors
Wireless sensors
may not have been
used in your
Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and applications,
provide 2–4 years of service. 3-volt lithium batteries provide up to 4 or more years of operation.
Actual battery life will depend on the environment in which the sensor is used, the number of
signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor.
Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures or large swings in temperature, may all lead
to the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.
security system
If you have a low battery in a wireless sensor, a low battery message i s
displayed on the touchpad.
– 36 –
MAINTAINING YOUR SYSTEM (Continued)
In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low battery also emits a single "chirp"
sound approximately once every 20–30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke detector with
the weak battery.
Note: The low battery message comes on as a warning that battery replacement in indicated
sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, a sensor causing a low battery indication is still
fully operational.
Important: Use only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.
Routine Care
•
•
•
Treat the components of your security system as you would any other electrical equipment.
Do not slam sensor-protected doors or windows.
Keep dust from accumulating on the touchpad and all protective sensors, particularly on
motion sensors and smoke detectors.
The touchpad and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft cloth. Do not spray
water or any other fluid on the units.

CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS (DOC) STATEMENT
NOTICE
AVIS
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies
certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment
meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational
and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the
equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
L'étiquette du ministère des Communications du Canada identifie le matériel
homologué. Cette étiquette certifie que le matériel est conforme à certaines normes
de protection, d'exploitation et de sécurité des réseaux de télécommunications. Le
ministère n'assure toutefois pas que le matériel fonctionnera à la satisfaction de
l'utilisateur.
Avant d'installer ce matériel, l'utilisateur doit s'assurer qu'il est permis de le
raccorder aux installations de l'entreprise locale de télécommunications. Le matériel
doit également être installé en suivant une méthode acceptée de raccordement. Dans
certains cas, les fils intérieurs de l'entreprise utilisés pour un service individuel à la
ligne unique peuvent être prolongés au moyen d'un dispositif homologué de
raccordement (cordon prolongateur téléphonique interne). L'abonne ne doit pas
oublier qu'il est possible que la conformité aux conditions énoncées ci-dessus
n'empèche pas la dégradation du service dans certaines situations. Actuellement, les
entreprises de télécommunications ne permettent pas que l'on raccorde leur
matériel aux prises d'abonnés, sauf dans les cas precis prévus par les tarifs
particuliers de ces entreprises.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the
company's inside wiring associated with a single line individual
service may be extended by means of certified connector assembly
(telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of
service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized
Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any
repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company
cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Les réparations du matériel homologué doivent être effectuées pas un centre
d'entretien canadien autorisé désigné par le fournisseur. La compagnie de
télécommunications peut demander à l'utilisateur de débrancher un appareil à la
suite de réparations ou de modifications effectuées par l'utilisateur ou à cause de
mauvais fonctionnement.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical
ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal
metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This
precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Pour sa propre protection, l'utilisateur doit s'assurer que tous les fils de mise en
terre de la source d'énergie électrique, des lignes téléphoniques de réseau de
conduites d'eau, s'il y en a, soient raccordés ensemble. Cette précaution est
particulièrement importante dans les régions rurales.
Caution: User should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection
authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
Avertissement: L'utilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces raccordements lui-
même; il doit avoir recours à un service d'inspection des installations électriques, ou
à un électricien, selon le cas.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes
the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop
which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination
on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to
the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed 100.
L'indice de charge (IC) assigné à chaque dispositif terminal pour éviter toute
surcharge indique le pourcentage de la charge totale qui peut être raccordé à un
circuit téléphonique fermé utilisé par ce dispositif. La terminaison du circuit fermé
peut être constituée de n'importe quelle combinaison de dispositifs, pourvu que la
somme des indices de charge de l'ensemble des dispositifs ne dépasse pas 100.

WARNING!
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or other
emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of
reasons. For example:
• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor
or disconnect an alarm warning device.
• Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work
without power. Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put
in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if
the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the
path.
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not
activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System
may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may
not sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other
side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second
floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing
limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about
fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper
storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson. Depending upon
the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not
provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation
manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams of
protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect
motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows.
(Continued)
– 44 –
WARNING!
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
(continued)
Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical
system can reduce their detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the
ambient temperature of protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection performance can
decrease.
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the
other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the
bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not
hear the warning if the alarm is muffled from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic.
Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect
themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond
appropriately.
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to
last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance.
This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.
Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for
insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and
continue to insure their lives and property.
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved
ones to learn about these developments.
