1 Using the Touchscreen Congratulations on your purchase of the RB6741-Z Touchscreen. The RB6741-Z Touchscreen is the center of your home security system. This Androidpowered device allows you to perform actions such as arming and disarming your security system, monitoring the status of your security sensors, and sending emergency alarms. This Quick Start Guide provides an overview of the Touchscreen and its basic operation.
Table 1-1. Major Touchscreen Components Icon Name Description Camera Camera Lens Home Go to the Home (main) screen in the Touchscreen screen. Menu Display the configuration menu. Back Return to the previous screen. Emergency Display icons for fire, medical, or police service. Tap one of these icons to immediately send an alarm to the appropriate call center. The button is located at the bottom right in front of the device. When A/C power is available, this button is lit.
Security Status Header The Security Status header appears in the top-left area of the Touchscreen. It tells you whether the system is armed or disarmed and other information. Tap this header to arm or disarm the system. Problems that Prevent Arming If you encounter problems that would prevent arming, such as a monitored door or window being opened, an announcement replaces the Arm/Disarm status. Exit Delay During the Exit Delay, the header announces the number of seconds until the system is armed.
System & Zone Trouble Header The System & Zone Trouble header appears in the top-right area of the Touchscreen. It displays when: There is a connectivity (cellular, broadband, and so on) Power problems with the Touchscreen When a sensor goes down, such as due to a battery failure When a sensor is being tampered with, such as the cover being opened System Reports Trouble If the system reports trouble, it sounds an audible alert regularly to make you aware of the problem.
Content Area The Content area is the interactive functionality of your Touchscreen where the Touchscreen apps appear. When you use or modify an app, the menus and tools appear here. The Home screen is the default interface when you access the Touchscreen. Return to this screen at any time by pressing the Home button on the bottom-left of the device.
Understanding Arming Modes You can arm the system for multiple scenarios: Arm Away — everybody is leaving. See “Arm Away Mode” below. Arm Stay — people are active inside. See “Arm Stay Mode” on page 7. Arm Night — everybody is going to bed. See “Arm Night Mode” on page 7. Different arming modes use different rules for when sensors are tripped and for Entry/Exit delays. An Exit delay is a short period of time after the system is armed for you to leave the premises (default 60 seconds).
Arm Stay Mode Arm Stay mode is used to arm the system when there are people in the premises. The following rules apply: Alarm trips immediately if a monitored Perimeter zone (non-entry/exit door or window) is opened. Interior motion detectors are not armed. Entry/Exit zones start an Entry Delay. Exit Delay starts when the system is armed. Exit Delay does not beep and is twice the length of Alarm Away mode. Arm Night Mode Arm Night mode is used when everyone is going to bed.
Arming the System from the Touchscreen To arm the system from the Touchscreen: 1. Tap the Security Status header when it is in Disarmed state. The Security Options screen appears, with a keypad and the Arm System tab open. 2. Tap an arming mode (Arm Stay, Arm Away, or Arm Night) and enter your security code. The Security Status header changes to display a countdown message. The text of the message varies, according to which arming mode you selected.
Cancelling the Arming Process If you arm the system in Arm Away or Arm Stay mode, the Security Status header displays a countdown of the number of seconds until the Exit Delay expires. You can choose to cancel the arming process. To cancel the arming process: 1. Tap the Security Status header while it displays a countdown. The Security app appears with a keypad and the Disarm System tab is active. The view from the camera(s), if any, is displayed. 2. Enter your security code to stop the arming process.
The Alarm Transmission Delay is a required period that prevents a report to the central station if an alarm was triggered innocently. Note: Emergency alarms (see “Sending an Emergency Alarm” on page 11) and smoke alarms are reported without an Alarm Transmission delay or an Entry Delay. Consult Customer Care to ascertain the number of seconds configured for the Alarm Transmission Delay on your system. To disarm the system from the Touchscreen: 1. Tap the Security Status header when it is in Armed state.
Sending an Emergency Alarm You can manually trip an alarm in the event of an emergency by clicking the Emergency button. Emergency alarms are reported without an Entry delay or Alarm Transmission delay. To manually trip an alarm: 1. Press the Panic button on the lower front area of the Touchscreen. The Emergency screen appears. 2. Perform one of the following steps: – Tap Fire to send an alarm for emergency fire assistance. The Touchscreen sounds a repeating, high-pitched chime.
2 Evacuation and Emergency Plans Evacuation Plan Develop an emergency evacuation plan for use in the event of fire. Here are some recommendations from the National Fire Protection Association. Make an evacuation plan for how to leave your home in the case of fire or other emergency. Sketch a map of your home that shows all the doors and windows. Discuss the plan with everyone in your home so that everyone will know what to do. Have at least two ways to exit each room.
