ABOUT YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM

Your DSC security equipment has been designed to give the greatest possible

flexibility and convenience. Read this manual carefully and have your installer

instruct you on system 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 and store this manual in a safe place for

future reference.

Fire Detection

This equipment is capable of monitoring fire detection devices such as smoke

detectors and providing a warning if a fire condition is detected. Good fire

detection depends on having adequate number of detectors placed in appropriate

locations. This equipment should be installed in accordance with applicable

standards and codes. 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 insure that your system continues to function as intended, it is important that you

test your system weekly. See the testing procedure elsewhere in this manual. If

your system does not function properly, call your installing company for service.

Your security system is made up of a DSC PC1500 or PC1550 control panel, one

or more LED615 keypads and various sensors and detectors. The control panel

will be mounted out of the way in a utility closet or in a basement. The metal cabinet

contains the system electronics, fuses and stand-by battery. There is normally no

reason for anyone but the installer or serviceman to have access to the control

panel. The LED615 keypads have an audible indicator (buzzer), a group of zone

and system status lights and command entry keys. The keypad is used to send

commands to the system and to display the current system status. The security

station(s) will be mounted in a convenient location inside the protected premises

close to the entry/exit door(s).

The security system has several zones of area protection and each of these zones

will have one or more sensors connected to it (motion detectors, glassbreak

detectors, door contacts, etc.). When a sensor is in alarm, the zone of alarm will

be indicated on the LED615 (zone lights 1 through 6).

Important Notice

A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only

intended to alert you and, if included, a monitoring 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 professionals who should

instruct you on the level of protection that has been provided

and on system operations.
