OVERALL DESCRIPTION
Console Operation
The console is designed with everything that is necessary for you to program and operate your Aegis 1000 automation system.
Because we feel that it is very important for you to feel comfortable with the operation of your Aegis 1000, we recommend that
you start by becoming familiar with your console.
The OFF (1), DAY (2), NIGHT (3), and AWAY (4) keys are called shortcut keys. This means that you may press these keys to
go directly to that function without using the menu key.
1- ' OFF '
The ' OFF ' key is used to disarm (deactivate) the security system, reset the fire and emergency alarms, and silence all sirens and
sounders.
2- ' DAY '
The ' DAY ' key is used to arm the security system in the Day mode. In the Day mode, the perimeter zones (doors and windows)
are protected, however, the interior zones are not armed so that you may move about freely inside. In this mode, there is an entry
delay on entry-exit zones.
3- ' NIGHT
'
The ' NIGHT ' key is used to arm the security system in the Night mode. In the Night mode, the doors, windows, and non-
sleeping area motion detectors are armed. In this mode, there is no entry delay so the alarm will be activated immediately if any
zone is violated.
4- ' AWAY
'
The ' AWAY ' key is used to arm the security system in the Away mode. In the Away mode, all zones (doors, windows, motions,
etc.) are armed. There is an entry delay on entry-exit zones, so that you can disarm the system when you return through the door.
5- ' COMMAND '
The ' COMMAND ' key is an easy and convenient way to execute a command (macro button) from the console.
