Figure 3 - Controls & Indicators

Arming and Disarming the System

Stay Arm (Arming the Perimeter)

Ask your alarm company if this function is available on your system.

Stay arming bypasses the interior protection (i.e., motion sensors) and arms the perimeter of the system (i.e., doors and windows). Close all sensors (i.e., stop motion and close doors). The Ready (√) indicator should be on. Press the Stay Arm button and/or enter your Access Code and do not leave the premises (if your installer has programmed this button). During exit delay, the Armed (💡) and Ready (√) indicators turn on to visually indicate that the system is arming.

When the exit delay expires, the Ready LED turns off, the Armed LED remains on and the keypad stops sounding to indicate that the alarm system is armed.

NOTE: For SIA FAR listed panels, the Stay Arming exit delay will be twice as long as the Away Arming exit delay.

Silent Exit Delay

If the system is armed using the Stay Arm button or using the "No Entry" Arming method ([*][9][access code]), the audible progress annunciation (keypad buzzer) is silenced and the exit time doubled for that exit period only (CP-01 versions only).

NOTE: For non CP-01 versions, Standard exit time is used.

When Stay Arm is selected from the Home screen:

• The display indicates “Exit Delay in Progress,” and the pre-programmed exit delay begins.
  • The Armed LED Indicator turns on.

NOTE: If Quick Arm is not enabled by the installer, then a numerical keypad is displayed (see Figure 4). Enter a valid access code to proceed.

Figure 4 - Keypad

If Disarm is selected during the exit delay, a numeric keypad is displayed.

• Enter (tap) your access code.
• The arming sequence is aborted and the system returns to the Home screen.
  • The Armed LED turns OFF.

At the end of the pre-programmed exit delay:

• The Disarm screen is displayed.
• The Ready Indicator turns OFF.
- “Stay Armed-Bypass” is displayed in the Status Bar.

NOTE: This screen will go into stand-by mode after 15 minutes. Tap the screen to restore the display.

Disarm

If Disarm is selected:

• A numerical keypad is displayed.
- Enter your Access Code in the keypad.
- The system returns to the Home screen and the red Armed indicator turns OFF.
- The alarm status is momentarily displayed in the status bar, then "Ready" is displayed.
• The green Ready indicator turns ON.

Disarming Error

If your code is invalid, the system will not disarm and a 2-second error tone will sound. If this happens, press # and try again.

Away Arm

When Away Arm is selected:

• Enter a valid access code to proceed.
  • The Armed LED Indicator turns ON.
• "Exit Delay in Progress" is displayed in the Status Bar. The pre-programmed exit delay begins.
• The touchscreen "beeps" at a 1-second urgency interval during the exit delay. Then 3 beeps sound in the last 10 seconds.

NOTE: If Quick Arm is not enabled by the installer, a numerical keypad is displayed.

If Disarm is selected during the exit delay:

• A numeric keypad is displayed. Tap your access code.
• The Arming sequence is aborted and the system returns to the Home screen.
  • The Armed LED turns OFF.

At the end of the pre-programmed exit delay:

• The Disarm screen is displayed.
• The Ready Indicator turns OFF.
- "Away Armed" is displayed in the Status Bar.

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 Away mode. In the event that you fail to exit the premises during the allotted exit delay period, or if you do not securely close the Exit/Entry door, the system will notify you that it was improperly armed in two ways: the keypad will emit one continuous beep and the bell or siren will sound.

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, making sure to close the entry/exit door properly.

Arming Error

An error tone will sound if the system is unable to arm. This will happen if the system is not ready to 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, ensuring that a valid access code is entered. Please check with your installer to determine if arming is inhibited by any other means.

Remote Arming and Disarming

The system can be armed and/or disarmed using the remote 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 (if bell squawk is enabled). When disarming using the Disarm button on the wireless key, the system will acknowledge the command by sounding two bell squawks (if bell squawk is enabled) that can be heard from the exterior of the premises.

When Alarm Sounds

The system can generate 4 different alarm sounds:

• Temporal/ pulsed siren = Fire Alarm
• 4 beeps, 5-second pause, 4 beeps = Carbon Monoxide Alarm
• Continuous siren = Intrusion (Burglary Alarm)

NOTE: The priority of signals is fire alarm, carbon monoxide alarm then burglary alarm.

Intrusion (Burglary) Alarm Continuous Siren

If you are unsure of the source of the alarm, approach with caution! If the alarm was accidental, enter your Access Code to silence the alarm. Call your central station to avoid a dispatch.

Fire Alarm Pulsed Siren

Follow your emergency evacuation plan immediately!

If the fire alarm was accidental (e.g., burned toast, bathroom steam, etc.), enter your Access Code to silence the alarm. Call your central station to avoid a dispatch. Ask your alarm company if your system has been equipped with fire detection. To reset the detectors, see the Sensor Reset section.

Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm

Activation of your CO alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide (CO), which can be fatal. During an alarm, the red LED on the CO detector flashes rapidly and the buzzer sounds with a repeating cadence of: 4 quick beeps, 5-second pause, 4 quick beeps. Also, during an alarm, the siren connected to the control panel produces a repeating cadence of 4 quick beeps, 5-second pause, 4 quick beeps. The keypad will also provide audible and visual indication of the CO alarm.

If an alarm sounds:

1. Operate silence button.
2. Call emergency services or your fire department.
3. Immediately move outdoors or to an open door/window.

WARNING: Carefully review your Carbon Monoxide Installation/User Guide to determine the necessary actions required to ensure your safety and ensure that the equipment is operating correctly. Incorporate the steps outlined in the guide into your evacuation plan.

Additional Options

Photos

NOTE: For best results, photo resolution should be 800 x 480; please use photo-editing computer software to adjust your photos to the correct size. Photos larger than 1280 x 720 cannot be displayed by the Touchscreen.

When Photos is selected:

• The photos play automatically from the list of photos on your SD card.
• Tapping the screen once will bring you back to the home page.

Photo Settings

WARNING: Disassembling the keypad without first removing the SD card will cause damage to the unit.

Selecting Picture Frame from the Keypad Configuration menu will allow you to select the pictures for the slide show. You can also program the Transition Time between photos and the duration for the Photo Frame Timeout on this screen.

Quick Exit

If the system is armed and you need to exit, use the quick exit function to avoid disarming and rearming the system. To activate this function, tap the Quick Exit icon. You have 2 minutes to leave the premises through your exit door. When the door is closed again the remaining exit time is cancelled.

Time & Date Programming

Tap on Options. Select User Functions [Master Code] and then select Time & Date. Tap on the section you would like to change and use the up/down arrows to change time/date. Once done, press Save.

Keypad Mode

This option allows the PTK5507 Touchscreen to function as a traditional DSC keypad.

Door Chime (Chime enable/disable)

The keypad indicates the current state of the door chime function (Enabled or Disabled). To choose the opposite function, tap the 'Chime' icon. Three beeps indicate that the chime is ON (Enabled). One long beep indicates that chime is OFF (Disabled).

Zone Status

This screen allows you to view the status of the zones on the system.

Figure 5 - Zone Closed

Ready – the zone is closed. (See Figure 5 on page 7).

Open - the zone is open and needs to be closed. (See Figure 6 on page 7.)

Figure 6 - Zone Open

Trouble – the alarm panel has detected a technical problem with one or more components of the alarm system e.g., loss of AC power. (See Troubles on page 10.)

Fault - one or more of the zones on your system is not secure e.g., a window or door is open. (See Figure 7 on page 8.)

Figure 7 - Zone Fault

Tamper – the zone may have been compromised by an intruder. (See Figure 8 on page 8.)

Figure 8 - Zone Tamper

Low Battery - one or more modules in the zone has a low battery. (See Figure 9 on page 9.)

Figure 9 - Low Battery

Bypassed Zones

Use the zone bypass feature when a zone is open but the system needs to be armed. Bypassed zones will not cause an alarm when opened. Bypassing zones reduces the level of security. If you are bypassing a zone because it is not functioning, call a service technician immediately so that the problem can be resolved and your system returned to proper working order.

Ensure that no zones are unintentionally bypassed when arming your system. Zone bypassing can only be performed while the system is disarmed. Bypassed zones are automatically cancelled each time the system is disarmed and must be bypassed again, if required, before the next arming.

NOTE: 24-hour zones can only be unbypassed manually.

NOTE: For security reasons, your installer has programmed the system to prevent certain zones from being bypassed. (e.g., smoke detectors).

Bypassing Zones with a PTK5507

When in the Zone Status page, scroll up/down through the desired zones, and tap on the bypass icon to bypass the zone. To unbypass a zone, tap the unbypass icon.

Troubles

When a trouble condition is detected, the Trouble ( ) or System indicator will turn on, and the keypad will beep every 10 seconds. Press the ( ) key to silence the beeps. Press ( ) to view the trouble condition. The Trouble ( ) or System indicator will flash. The corresponding trouble will light up.

Testing Your System

NOTE: If you are going to perform a System Test, call your Monitoring Station to inform them when you begin and also when you end the test.

Testing Your Keypad Sounder and Siren

The System Test performs a two-second check of the keypad sounder and bell or siren, in addition to testing the keypad status lights and the panel backup battery.

1. Press Options, User Functions [Master Code], then System Test. The following will occur:

2. The system activates all keypad sounders and bells or sirens for 2 seconds. All keypad lights turn ON.

3. PK5500/RFK5500/RFK5564 keypads will light all pixels.

4. The Ready, Armed, and Trouble LEDs will flash for the duration of the test.

5. To exit the function menu, press [#].

Testing Your Entire System

All smoke detectors in this installation must be tested by your smoke detector installer or dealer once a year to ensure they are functioning correctly. It is the user's responsibility to test the system weekly (excluding smoke detectors). Ensure you follow all the steps in the “Testing Your Keypad Sounder and Siren” section above.

NOTE: Should the system fail to function properly, call your installation company for service immediately.

1. Prior to testing, ensure that the system is disarmed and the Ready light is on.
2. Close all zones to return the system to the Ready state.
3. Perform a System Test by following the steps in the “Testing Your Keypad Sounder and Siren” section.
4. To test the zones, activate each detector in turn (e.g., open each door/window or walk in motion detector areas).

PK5500/RFK5500/RFK5564 keypads will display the following message when each zone (detector) is activated: "Secure System Before Arming <>", "Secure System or Enter Code" or "Secure or Arm System." Use the [<][>] scroll keys to view which zones are open. The message will disappear when the zones are closed.

On a PK5501/RFK5501 keypad, the display says “Open” when any zone (detector) is activated. To see which zones are open, press [#]. The keypad will scroll the numbers of all open zones.

On a PK5508/PK5516/RFK5508/RFK5516 keypad, the zone light turns ON when the zone (detector) is activated. The zone light turns OFF when the zone is closed (e.g., door or window closed).

On a PTK5507 keypad, the following message will be displayed when each zone (detector) is activated: "Ready to Force," "Not Ready". Use the zone status button to view which zones are open. The message will disappear when the zones are closed.

NOTE: Some features described above will not be functional unless enabled by your installer. Ask your installer which features are functional on your system.

Walk Test Mode

The installer can initiate a Walk Test mode for the system. While in Walk Test mode, the Ready, Armed, and Trouble LEDs will flash to indicate that Walk Test is active. When the system automatically terminates the Walk Test mode, it will annunciate with an audible warning (5 beeps every 10 seconds), beginning five minutes prior to the termination of the test.

Allowing Computer Access To Your System

From time to time, your installer may need to send information to or retrieve information from your security system. Your installer will do this by having a computer call your system over the telephone line. You may need to prepare your system to receive this ‘downloading’ call. To do this:

1. Press [*][6][Master code][5] at any keypad or

2. Press Options, User Functions [Master Code], then Enable DLS from the Touchscreen.

This allows downloading for a limited period of time. During this time, the system will answer incoming downloading calls.

For more information on this feature, please ask your installer.
