FAQs

1. We have a (rather outdated) PC5010 pre-installed at our house. It's been pre-wired and has 3 keypads all set up. The problem is that we are the third owners and we do not know the master code or the user codes. The system has the installer bypass enabled and I am trying to use the bypass to change the master code to set it up for our use.
2. Hello, Just bought the DSC 832 (PC5010), in the setup manual it makes reference to the installer's code and Master code. The installer's code is given in the manual, but I can't find anywhere what the initial master code is set to.

This is especially true for the master code so someone doesn’t walk in and try 1234 to disarm your alarm system, but it is always good to change the installer code as well. If you change the installer code, make sure that you remember it. Otherwise you will have no way to get back into programming without a full system default.

Arming from an LED Keypad:

If the Ready light is ON, the system is ready for arming. If the Ready light is OFF, check to see that all doors and windows are closed and that motion is stopped in areas covered by motion detectors. The system Cannot be armed unless the Ready light is ON indicating that all zones are closed and the system is in the Ready state.

Enter your [User code]. As each digit is entered, the keypad sounder will beep. If the access code was entered incorrectly, the keypad buzzer will sound steadily for two seconds. If this occurs, press the [#] key and re-enter your [User code]. If the correct access code is entered, the keypad sounder will beep quickly and the Armed light will come ON. Exit the premises through the door indicated by your installer as the Exit/Entry door.

The panel will provide an exit delay period, indicated by keypad beeps, for you to exit the premises without causing an alarm. At the end of the exit delay period, the Ready light will turn OFF and the system will be armed. The exit delay time can be changed by your installer.

Arming from an LCD Keypad:

When this message appears, one or more zones are not secured. To secure the system, close all doors and windows and cease all motion in areas covered by motion detectors.

When this message appears, use the arrow (< >) keys to verify that the system is clear of troubles and that no zones are bypassed unintentionally.

If this display is showing, the system is in the Ready state and may be fully armed. To arm the system, enter your [User code].

Once the correct user code has been entered, the display will be as shown. The panel will provide an exit delay period, also indicated by keypad beeps, for you to exit the premises without causing an alarm. You can restart the exit delay once by pressing the [Away] button before the exit delay expires. Exit through the door indicated by your installer as the Exit/Entry door.

This message will be displayed once the exit delay expires and the system is fully armed.

If this message appears, be aware of which zones are bypassed and why.

NOTE: If you arm the system with a zone bypassed or with a trouble present, your security protection is reduced.

Alternate Arming Methods Away Arming:

Arming the system in the Away mode will have all interior zones and perimeter zones active. If motion is detected in the interior zones, or if one of the perimeter zones is violated, the alarm sequence will begin. To arm in the Away mode, enter your [User code] and exit the premises through a designated Exit/Entry door. The system will recognize that occupants have left the premises. Once the exit delay expires, the system will be fully armed.

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. If this occurs, you must re-enter the premises, enter your [User code] to disarm the system, and then follow the arming procedure again, making sure to exit the premises in the proper fashion. Your installer will tell you if the Audible Exit Fault has been enabled on your system.

Stay Arming:

This feature, if enabled by your installer, will allow you to arm the perimeter zones while leaving the interior zones inactive so that you can remain on the premises while the system is armed. When you enter your [User code] to arm the system and do not exit the premises through a designated Exit/ Entry door, the system will arm in the Stay mode, automatically bypassing the interior zones.

The interior zones can be reactivated at any time by entering [*] [1] at any keypad. If you reactivate the interior zones, be sure to only inhabit areas not covered by motion detectors. To access areas protected by motion sensors, you must enter your [User code] and disarm the system.

Arming Without Entry Delay:

If you wish to arm your system without the entry delay, enter [*] [9] then your [User code]. The Armed light will flash as a reminder that the system is armed and has no entry delay. An entry through any zone programmed as a delay zone will create an instant alarm.

Quick Arm:

When the Quick Arm feature is enabled, the system may be armed by simply pressing [*] [0]instead of your User code. Please note that pressing [*] [0] will only allow you to arm the system; to disarm; you must enter a valid [User code]. Your installer will inform you if the Quick Arm feature has been enabled on your system.

Quick Exit:

When the Quick Exit feature is enabled, pressing [*] [0] while the system is armed will provide a two minute window for you to exit the premises. During this time, you may only open and close the designated Entry/Exit door once. Once the door is closed, the panel will end the two minute quick exit delay. If the door is opened again, or if the door is not closed after two minutes, or if another zone is opened, the panel will begin the entry delay. Your installer will inform you if the Quick Exit feature has been enabled on your system.

Disarming from an LED Keypad:

Enter the premises through a designated Exit/Entry door; entering by any other door will sound an immediate alarm. As soon as the Exit/Entry door is opened, the keypad will beep to indicate that the system should be disarmed. Go to the keypad and enter your [User code]. If an error is made entering the code, enter your code again. As soon as the correct code is entered, the Armed light will go out and the keypad will stop beeping. The correct access code must be entered before the entry delay period expires. If a valid User code is not entered during this time, the system will go into alarm. The entry delay time may be changed by your installer.

If an alarm occurred while the system was armed, the Memory light and the zone light corresponding to the zone which caused the alarm will flash for 30 seconds. After the 30 second period, the Memory light and zone light will stop flashing and the panel will return to the Ready state. Pressing the [#] key during the 30 second period will cancel the alarm memory display. To view other alarms, press [*] [3].

If a trouble was detected when the panel is disarmed, the Trouble light will turn ON. Please note that troubles will not display while the system is in the Alarm Memory Display mode.

Disarming from an LCD Keypad:

Upon entering through a designated Exit/Entry door, the keypad will beep and the entry delay will commence, reminding you to disarm the system. The keypad will display the following message…

Enter your [User code]. If an error is made in entering the code, re-enter the [User code]correctly.When a valid access code is entered, the keypad will stop beeping. If no alarms occurred while the panel was armed, and there are no troubles, the display will read…

After about five seconds, the system will return to the Ready state and the display will read…

If an alarm occurred while the system was armed, this message will be displayed. Use the arrow (< >) keys to view which zones caused the alarm. If a zone is still in alarm, the display will show the following message to indicate that a zone is open…

Upon disarming and if a trouble is present, this message will be displayed. Use the arrow (< >) keys to view which troubles are affecting the system.

The alarm memory is cleared each time the panel is armed so that any alarms showing are alarms that occurred only during the last armed period.

Zone Bypassing:

The zone bypassing function is used when access is needed to part of the protected area while the system is armed. Zones which are temporarily out of service due to damaged wiring or contacts may be bypassed to allow system arming until repairs can be made. Bypassed zones will not cause an alarm. Zones cannot be bypassed once the system is armed. Bypassed zones are automatically cancelled each time the system is disarmed and must be reapplied before the next arming.

NOTE: For security reasons, your installer may program the system to prevent you from bypassing certain zones. Bypassing zones reduces your security protection. If you are bypassing a zone due to damaged wiring or contacts, please call a service technician immediately so that the problem can be resolved and your system returned to proper working order. Do not unintentionally bypass zones when you arm your system.

To bypass zones from an LED keypad:

Start with the system in the Ready state. Enter [*] [1] [Zone number (s) to be bypassed].

Enter the zone number (s) as a double digit from (01 to 32). As each zone is bypassed, the corresponding zone light will turn ON. If a zone is bypassed by mistake, press that zone number again and the zone light will turn OFF, indicating that the zone is not bypassed.
