System Overview
Congratulations on your ownership of an ST security system, which offers the latest in secu-
rity protection technology. The ST system consists of a control panel, at least one keypad
and various sensors that provide burglary and/or fire protection. In addition, your system
may be programmed to send alarm and status messages to a central alarm monitoring station.
Control Panel
The control panel is the main processing unit for all system functions. It receives and responds
to signals from sensors throughout the premises. For monitored systems, the control panel con-
nects to the premises phone line or an optional Ethernet module for central station reporting.
Keypads
LCD Keypad
The 2-line x 16 character LCD keypad allows control and programming of the security system
and displays system status messages.
Wireless Keyfob
The wireless keyfob allows users the ability to arm and disarm the system, turn lights
on/off (if programmed), and activate a panic alarm. The keyfob includes a 5 year user-
replaceable battery.
Zones/Sensors
The system includes various detection devices, which are identified by the security system
as zones. Each zone has a type of detection sensor, which is installed throughout the prem-
ises to identify alarm conditions and communicate this information to the control panel.
The sensors used in the system may include, but are not limited to, devices such as door/
window sensors, smoke detectors, and motion sensors.
Door/Window Sensors
Door/Window sensors protect the perimeter of your home or business by alerting the con-
trol panel when a door or window is opened.
Smoke Detectors
Smoke and heat detectors protect the premises from fire conditions and remain active 24
hours per day regardless of the arming level of the system.
Motion Sensors
Motion sensors detect a person moving across the field of detection.
Modules
Optional modules may be included with your system to provide additional functionality.
Ethernet Interface Module
Your system may include an Ethernet Interface Module that provides Internet central sta-
tion reporting, browser access, and email reporting to your PC or cell phone. In addition, a
third-party adapter (such as D-Link DWL-G810) can be used to allow the system to have
802.11 Wi-Fi capabilities.
Remote Audio Module (Included with the ST Express)
The Remote Audio Module provides voice feedback for system conditions. If your system is
monitored, the module gives the central station operator the ability to communicate with the
occupants on the premises during an alarm. The operator can then determine the appropriate
course of action and dispatch the proper assistance. Ask your installer if this feature is enabled.
External Transceiver Module (Included with the ST Express)
The External Transceiver Module provides bidirectional wireless communications to the
system’s wireless sensors.

Arming the System
Arming the Perimeter
When the system is armed using the Arm Perimeter method, the perimeter zones/sensors
(e.g., exterior doors/windows) will be activated, but the interior zones/sensors (e.g., motion
detectors) will not be activated. Use the Arm Perimeter method when you are staying home.
Close any open protected doors and windows.
Press the ARM PERIM key. Enter a valid user PIN if prompted.
The keypad displays the amount of seconds until the system is armed. Optionally, you
may select <NoDelay> or <LatchKey>*. If neither is selected, the system will proceed
with the exit delay.
At the end of the exit delay, all perimeter doors and windows are armed.
* The Latchkey option will only be presented if it is enabled (Ask your installer.)
Arming All
When the system is armed using the Arm All method, all zones/sensors will be activated
and will cause an alarm when tripped. Use the Arm All method when no one will be stay-
ing on the premises.
Close any open protected doors and windows.
Press the ARM ALL key. Enter a valid user PIN if prompted.
The keypad displays the amount of seconds until the system is armed. Optionally, you
may select <NoDelay> or <LatchKey>*. If neither is selected, the system will proceed
with the exit delay.
At the end of the exit delay, all zones/sensors are armed.
* The Latchkey option will only be presented if it is enabled (Ask your installer.)
No Delay
The system can be armed with no delay by selecting <NoDelay> during the exit delay.
This method provides greater security while you are on the premises and do not require an
exit/entry delay time.
Latchkey Feature
If this option is enabled, the system will present an option to specify a latchkey time when
arming. If you select this option and enter a time, the system will send a report if someone,
such as a child, does not arrive home and disarm the system by the designated time. A report
will be sent to a central monitoring station and/or emailed depending on system configuration.
To set the latchkey time:
Arm the system by pressing ARM ALL or ARM PERI and entering your user PIN.
Select <Latchkey> and enter the latchkey time.
Bypassing Sensors
If the system is armed with open zones, the system will prompt you to bypass the zones. A
bypassed zone will be unprotected and will not cause an alarm while your system is armed.
To bypass zones:
Arm the system using the Arm All or Arm Perimeter method.
The system will identify the open zones, display the exit countdown, and emit an
alternating exit tone.
Select <Bypass> to bypass the open zones or <Cancel> to cancel the arming sequence. If
neither is selected, the system will automatically bypass the open zones and arm at the end
of the exit delay. The bypassed zones will not be activated with the rest of the system.

to prevent it from calling the monitoring station. The LCD keypad will display “Alarm
Aborted” if you successfully cancel the alarm and prevent it from being reported. If you
don’t disarm in time to abort the report, follow the procedures discussed with your install-
er to prevent a false dispatch.
System Alarm Responses
When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the type of alarm (e.g., Intrusion
Alarm) and the description of the zone(s) that caused the alarm. It remains displayed until
it is cleared by disarming the system. In the event of an alarm, the sirens and LCD key-
pads will respond as detailed in Table 3 and the alarm will be reported to the central moni-
toring station if the system is monitored

Each wireless sensor in your system is powered by at least one 3-volt lithium battery,
which provides years of operation. Actual battery life depends on the environment in
which the sensor is installed, the number of sensor activations, and the specific type of
sensor. If a low battery condition occurs in a wireless sensor, the keypad displays “Low
Battery” along with the zone number. If the wireless sensor is a smoke detector, the detec-
tor emits a single beep approximately every 60 seconds.
