SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Features
General Information
This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, depending on
the configuration of your system. The system consists of a touchscreen control for system
operation, various wireless sensors that provide perimeter and interior burglary protection,
and optional smoke or combustion detectors to provide early fire warning. In addition,
optional wireless keypads may have been installed to allow you to control the system away
from the touchscreen control. The system may also be used as a speaker phone.
The system monitors protection zones and system status, displays appropriate information
on the touchscreen display, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have
been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines or via
the cellular/GSM network or the internet to a central alarm monitoring station, and may also
be capable of two-way voice communication with the central station.
The user features of this Los Angeles security system are listed below. Ask your
installer which
features have been programmed for your system.
• STAY and AWAY arming modes: By using these modes you can protect either the
perimeter only, or the entire premises.
• Panic key functions: A designated key allow you to manually activate fire, medical
emergency,
or
silent
police
alarms. Refer
to
the
PANIC KEYS
section
for
detailed
information.
• Follow me reminder announcements: Allows the panel to dial a number that you have
specified, at a programmed time and day and deliver a message programmed by your
installer.
• Real-time
clock:
Touchscreen
displays
current
date
and
time.
Refer
to
the
CLOCK/CALENDAR section for procedures for setting the time.
• Message center: The system allows recording and play back of brief messages. Refer to
the RECORDING/PLAYBACK MESSAGES section for procedures.

– 5 –
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
General Operation
• Device activation: Allows you to send “Follow-Me” or e-mail messages, as a result of a
system event such as an alarm or trouble condition. Refer to the DEVICES section for
detailed information.
• Scheduling feature: Allows you to schedule the automatic activation or deactivation of
program events (e.g. alarm clock, reminder, and latch key). Refer to the SCHEDULES
section for detailed information.
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 appear on the display
when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.
Fire Protection
The fire protection portion of your Los Angeles security system (if used) is always active
and will sound
an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for
important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency
exit routes from the premises.
Carbon Monoxide
The carbon monoxide (CO) portion of your Los Angeles security system (if used) is always
active and will
sound an alarm if a CO condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for
more information.
Burglary Protection
Your system provides two modes of burglary protection: STAY and AWAY. STAY mode
protects the perimeter only, allowing you to freely move inside the premises. AWAY mode
protects the entire system. Both modes provide an entry delay time that allows you to
reenter the premises without setting off an alarm. For additional security, you can turn the
entry delay off when arming the system. Refer to the ARMING THE SYSTEM section. The
system also allows you to bypass selected zones before arming the system, if desired. Refer to
the BYPASSING PROTECTION ZONES section. The system also provides a CHIME mode,
for
alerting
users
to
the
opening
of
protected
doors
and
windows
while
the
system
is
disarmed.
You must arm the burglary protection portion of your system before it will sense burglary
alarms.
Refer
to
the
ARMING THE SYSTEM
section
for
detailed
procedures
and
information.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
General Operation
LYNX Touch SIA False Alarm Prevention Features
Many false alarms are caused by simple accidents, like forgetting to close a door when you leave. The
LYNX Touch SIA includes several features that help prevent false alarms and some of these are
optional or programmable. Although turning off some of these features may provide additional security,
it may also increase the chance of false alarms. Your installer can help you decide whether to use the
features or not. The following provides a brief explanation of the features included with your security
system that help prevent false alarms from occurring, and what you should do if such alarms occur.
• Exit/Entry Delays: Your Los Angeles security system has been programmed with delay times that
allow you to
exit the premises after arming, and to disarm the system upon entry, before an alarm occurs. If you
leave the premises too late when exiting, or disarm too late when arriving home, it will cause a false
alarm. If an alarm occurs, you should disarm the system immediately, and wait for your monitoring
company to call you.
• Exit Alarms: Leaving the premises and forgetting to close the door is a common cause of false
alarms. The Los Angeles security system will sound an alarm, and display “Exit Error”. The Los
Angeles security system
provides extra time for you to disarm the system before dialing your monitoring company. Disarming
the system immediately may prevent a call to your monitoring company.
• Exit Time Restart-Exit Delay Restart/Reset: If you leave the premises and enter again before the
exit delay has expired, the system will restart the exit time giving you more time to leave. If there
are less than 10 seconds left to exit, the system will sound fast beeps, indicating an alarm will occur
soon if you fail to exit or disarm immediately. If this occurs, disarm the system and arm it again
when you are ready to leave. The Exit Delay can also be restarted by pressing the RESTART Icon.
• Auto Stay Feature: If you arm the system in the “AWAY” mode from the control’s keypad or an RF
keypad but no one exits, the alarm system will automatically change to the “STAY” mode. This will
prevent you from tripping alarms by remaining on premises. Disarm the system and arm away again
when you are ready to leave.
• Burglary Abort Window: Your Los Angeles security system has a delay between the time a
burglary alarm
sounds, and the time the monitoring company is called. This delay gives you time to disarm the
Los Angeles security system before the alarm is reported to the monitoring company. This delay is
factory preset
at 30 seconds, but may be increased or decreased by your installer.
• False Alarms: If a burglary or fire alarm condition occurs and the system has been disarmed, the
keypad will display “Alarm Cancelled”. If this was a false alarm, wait for the monitoring company to
call you. They will verify your security code or password and prevent them from calling emergency
personnel to respond to a false alarm.
– 7 –
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
General Operation
Security Codes
At the time of installation, you were asked to provide a personal 4-digit security or “Master
User” code. You must enter the user code when arming and disarming the system, and when
performing other system functions. As an additional security feature, other users who do not
need to know your code can be assigned up to 14 different security codes. Refer to the
SECURITY CODES section for procedures on adding security codes to the system.
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, the LYNX Touch internal sounder will sound for about 15-seconds,
and the touchscreen displays the zone(s) causing the alarm. After 15-seconds, the internal
sounder stops temporarily and voice announcements of the zones in alarm begins. When
these zones have been announced, the internal sounder sounds again and the cycle repeats
itself, until the system is disarmed or until alarm bell timeout occurs. If your system is
connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will be sent. To stop the alarm
sounding, simply disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the alarm remain displayed
indicating
memory
of
alarm. Refer
to
the
DISARMING THE SYSTEM
section
for
information about clearing the memory of alarm display
Two-Way Voice Feature
The
control
supports
voice
dialog
between
an
operator
at
the
central
station
and
an
individual at the premises. This feature allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct
a two-way conversation with an individual(s) at the premises and allows the operator to
gather information about the nature and location of the alarm that may be helpful in
responding to police or rescue departments. If
the
Two-way
Voice
Feature
has
been
programmed and an alarm condition is detected, the system sends an alarm message to the
central station. After acknowledgement is received, a “listen in to follow” message is sent to
the central station. In response to this message, the central station operator can enter
commands that allow him to initiate a 5-minute voice session.
If a subsequent zone is violated during a voice session, the system will terminate the session
and process the alarm. During the voice session, the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs
will alternately blink in the Talk and VOX Modes but not during Listen Mode.

About the Touchscreen Control
General
**IMPORTANT**
If the LYNX Touch is beeping rapidly upon entering the premises, 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.
The touchscreen icons and keys allow you to control all system functions. Additionally, the
touchscreen display shows the zone and description of all system occurrences. When the
speaker
phone
mode
is
active,
a
full-function

the
touchscreen.
The system also features a built-in sounder, which will sound during alarms and troubles
and a built-in speaker announces system status. Additionally, the system "beeps" 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).
The voice announcement volume is adjustable, however the “beeps” that sound in response to
alarms always sound at the maximum volume level. All other “beeps” (trouble, chime,
exit/entry, etc) can be set to either low or high volume.

protection because the alarm system will arm STAY in this case. Consult with your installer for servicing of the
entry exit zones or to turn off this feature if a check condition on entry exit zones occurs.

SECURING THE PREMISES
Arming the System
Arming In Away Mode
Use this mode when no one will be staying on the premises. Close all protected perimeter
windows and doors before arming. The green READY indicator on the control should be lit if
the system is ready to be armed. When armed in AWAY mode, the system will sound an
alarm if a protected door or window is opened, or if any movement is detected inside the
premises, when infrared detection devices are used. You may leave through a designated
entrance door during the exit delay period without causing an alarm. You may also re-enter
through the entrance door, but you must disarm the system within the entry delay period or
the security code to arm the system. The security code must always be used to disarm the
system, however.
The Babysitter Code and Installer Code cannot disarm the system unless it was used to arm
the system. In addition, if the system is armed by pressing via Quick-Arming, neither the
Babysitter Code nor Installer Code can disarm the system.

Arming the System with no delay (Instant)
Use “Instant” with Stay mode when you are staying home and do not expect anyone to use
the entrance door.
Use “Instant” with Away mode when the premises will be vacant for extended periods of time
such as vacations, etc.
When armed with “Instant”, the control beeps twice, or beeps continuously if exit warning
has been programmed for your system, and displays the “Armed Stay Instant” or “Armed
Away Instant” message. The red ARMED indicator lights and the system announces “Armed
Stay Instant –exit now” or “Armed Away Instant –exit now”.
When armed with “Instant”, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is
opened, including the entrance door. You may leave through the entrance door during the
exit delay period without causing an alarm, but an alarm will sound as soon as someone
reenters.

SECURING THE PREMISES
Entry/Exit Delays
Exit Delay
Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through
the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. The system display will count down
the time remaining in the exit delay, if programmed by your installer. If the system has been
Armed Away, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period, if programmed by
your installer. The exit door must be closed before the end of the exit delay. During the last
10 seconds of the exit delay fast beeps will sound as a warning that the delay time is nearing
its end. The exit beeps cannot be silenced.
Restarting Exit Delay While System Armed
Ask your installer if this feature is active for your system. If active, you can restart the exit
delay one time after arming in Stay or Away mode during the exit delay by selecting the
“Restart” key. This will allowing extra time for someone to enter or exit or re-enter the
prope
