Tyco Network Card PC5016 User Manual

• Each person should know of a predetermined assembly point where everyone can be accounted  
for i.e.: across the street or at a neighbour's house. Once everyone is out of the building, call the  
Fire Department.  
About Your Security System  
Your DSC Power832 Security System has been designed to provide you with the greatest possible  
flexibility and convenience. Read this manual carefully and have your installer instruct you on your  
system's operation and on which features have been implemented in your system. All users of this  
system should be equally instructed in its use. Fill out the “System Information” page with all of you  
zone information and access codes and store this manual in a safe place for future reference.  
• A good plan emphasizes quick escape. Do not investigate or attempt to fight the fire, and do not  
gather belongings or pets as this wastes valuable time. Once outside, do not re-enter the house.  
Wait for the fire department.  
• Write the fire escape plan down and rehearse it frequently so that should an emergency arise,  
everyone will know what to do. Revise the plan as conditions change, such as the number of  
people in the home, or if there are changes to the building's construction.  
Fire Detection  
This equipment is capable of monitoring fire detection devices such as smoke detectors and providing  
a warning if a fire condition is detected. Good fire detection depends on having adequate number of  
detectors placed in appropriate locations. Carefully review the Family Escape Planning guidelines in  
this manual.  
• Make sure your fire warning system is operational by conducting weekly tests (see “Fire Alarm  
Operation” on page 14). If you are unsure about system operation, contact your installing dealer.  
NOTE: Your installer must enable the fire detection portion of this equipment before it becomes  
functional.  
• We recommend that you contact your local fire department and request further information on fire  
safety and escape planning. If available, have your local fire prevention officer conduct an in-  
house fire safety inspection.  
Testing  
To insure that your system continues to function as intended, you must test your system weekly.  
Please refer to “Testing Your System” on page 13 of this manual. If your system does not function  
properly, call your installing company for service.  
Maintenance  
With normal use, the system requires minimum maintenance. The following points should be observed.  
1.Do not wash the security station with a wet cloth. Light dusting with a slightly moistened cloth should  
remove normal accumulations of dust.  
Monitoring  
This system is capable of transmitting alarms, troubles and emergency information over telephone  
lines to a monitoring station. If you inadvertently initiate an alarm, immediately call the monitoring  
station to prevent an unnecessary response.  
2.The battery/bell test is designed to determine battery condition. We recommended, however, that  
the stand-by batteries be replaced every three years.  
3.For other system devices such as smoke detectors, passive infrared, ultrasonic or microwave motion  
detectors or glassbreak detectors, consult the respective manufacturer’s literature for testing and  
maintenance.  
NOTE: The monitoring function must be enabled by the installer before it becomes functional.  
General System Operation  
Your security system is made up of a DSC Power832 control panel, one or more Power832 keypads  
and various sensors and detectors. The control panel will be mounted out of the way in a utility closet  
or in a basement. The metal cabinet contains the system electronics, fuses and stand-by battery.  
There is normally no reason for anyone but the installer or service professional to have access to the  
control panel.  
All the keypads have an audible indicator and command entry keys. The LED keypads have a group  
of zone and system status lights. The LCD keypad has an alphanumeric liquid crystal display (LCD).  
The keypad is used to send commands to the system and to display the current system status. The  
keypad(s) will be mounted in a convenient location inside the protected premises close to the entry/  
exit door(s).  
The security system has several zones of area protection and each of these zones will be connected  
to one or more sensors (motion detectors, glassbreak detectors, door contacts, etc.). A sensor in  
alarm will be indicated by the corresponding zone lights flashing on a LED keypad or by written  
messages on the LCD keypad.  
IMPORTANT NOTICE  
A security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and – if included –  
your monitoring station of an emergency situation. Security systems are generally very reliable  
but they may not work under all conditions and they are not a substitute for prudent security  
practices or life and property insurance. Your security system should be installed and serviced by  
qualified security professionals who should instruct you on the level of protection that has been  
provided and on system operations.

Viewing Trouble Conditions  
Alternate Arming Methods  
The control panel continuously monitors a number of possible trouble conditions. If one of these trouble  
conditions occur, the keypad will beep twice every 10 seconds until you press any key on the keypad.  
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 access 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.  
Troubles can only be viewed when the system is in the disarmed state. If a trouble occurs while the  
system is armed, enter your access code to disarm the system, then follow the procedure outlined  
below to determine the specific trouble.  
NOTE: A TROUBLE condition reduces the security your system is designed to provide. Call your  
installing company for service.  
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 access code to disarm the  
system, and then follow the arming procedure again, making sure to exit the premises in the proper  
fashion.  
To view troubles from an LED Keypad:  
A trouble will be indicated by the Trouble light which will remain ON until the trouble condition is  
cleared. If you cannot determine or remedy the cause of the trouble condition, contact your installer for

Disarming the System  
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.  
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 access code. If an error is made  
entering the code, press the [#] key and enter your code again. As soon as the correct code is  
entered, the Armed light will go out and the keypad will stop beeping.  
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.  
The correct access code must be entered before the entry delay period expires. If a valid access  
code is not entered during this time, the system will go into alarm. The entry delay time may be  
changed by your installer.  
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.  
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].  
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].  
If a trouble was detected when the panel is disarmed, the Trouble light will turn ON (See “Viewing  
Trouble Conditions” on page 12 to determine the source of the trouble.) Please note that troubles will  
not display while the system is in the Alarm Memory Display mode.  
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. Press [#] to return to the Ready state.  
Disarming from an LCD Keypad:
