2.7 PARTITIONING
Your Spectra system is equipped with a partitioning feature that can divide your alarm system into two distinct areas identified as Partition 1 and Partition 2. Partitioning can be used in installations where shared security systems are more practical, such as a home office or warehouse building. When partitioned, each zone, each User Code and many of your system's features can be assigned to either Partition 1,
Partition 2, or both partitions.
If the system is not partitioned, all zones, User
Codes, and features will be recognized as belonging to Partition 1.
Spectra Keypads 13
3.0 PROGRAMMING ACCESS CODES
Access Codes are personal identification numbers that allow you to enter certain programming modes, arm or disarm your system as well as activate or deactivate PGMs.
The Spectra security system supports the following:

6.0 FIRE ALARMS
Upon a fire alarm, the bell/siren will emit three “squawks” at 2 second intervals until silenced or reset by entering a valid access code. If the zone is a Delayed Fire Zone, there is a delay before the system contacts the Security Company. This will prevent unnecessary reporting of false alarms. If there is no fire condition, contact your Security Company immediately to avoid an unnecessary response.
What do I do if a Delayed Fire Zone was set off accidentally?
1) Press the [
CLEAR
]
button within 30 seconds of the alarm.
2) Try to correct the problem.
3) If the problem persists, the alarm will sound again. Press
[
CLEAR
]
again.
These steps will instruct the system to delay reporting the
fire alarm to the Security Company (see Figure 6.1 on page

Minimizing Fire Hazards
The three most common causes of fires:
• Cooking is the leading cause of home fires in the U.S. It's also the leading cause of fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure of stoves or ovens.
• Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths.
Smoke detectors and smolder-resistant bedding and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents.
• Heating is the second leading cause of residential fires.
However, heating fires are a larger problem in single family homes than in apartments since the heating systems in single family homes are often not professionally maintained.
Fire Safety Tips
• In the event of a fire, remember time is the biggest enemy and every second counts! Escape first, then call for help.
Develop a home fire escape plan and designate a meeting place outside. Make sure everyone in the family knows two ways to escape from every room. Practice feeling your way out with your eyes closed. Never stand up in a fire, always crawl low under the smoke and try to keep your mouth covered. Never return to a burning building for any reason; it may cost you your life.
• Finally, having at least one working smoke alarm dramatically increases your chances of surviving a fire.
And remember to practice a home escape plan frequently with your family.

Providing a Fire Warning System
Household fires are especially dangerous at night. Fires produce smoke and deadly gases that can overcome occupants while they sleep. To warn against fire, smoke detectors should be installed outside each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements.

7.0 TESTING & MAINTENANCE
With the system disarmed and the “
READY
” Light on, activate motion detectors by walking in the protected area. Open and close protected doors and verify that the corresponding button illuminates. Your installer can advise you of the best way to test your particular system.
Do not use open flame or burning materials to test your fire detection devices. Contact your installer for safe methods of testing your system.
Under normal use, your system requires virtually no maintenance other than regular testing. It is recommended that the standby battery be changed every three years.
Speak to your installer about the necessary tests and at what frequency they should be performed.
