UNDERSTANDING THE SYSTEM INDICATORS

During normal operation (when the system is armed or disarmed), the base's
top panel shows the status of the zones and warns you about low batteries
and other problems.  To view the zone and status indicators, lift the top
panel as shown.  The information in the following chart describes the
function of each indicator.

Indicators During a Power Failure

If a power failure occurs, the base continues to operate as long as you
installed batteries in the base and the batteries are still good.  To
conserve battery power, the base turns off all indicators except STATUS and
BATT LOW.  Pressing any button turns on the rest of the indicators for
about 1 minute so you can view the status and operate the system.
