Solution 16, 862, 6+6 and CC488 cheat sheet

  • Arm (away)your code#
    • For the CP5 and other push-button codepads; for a CP6, ask your installer. Close doors and windows, then key in your code and press # (the key marked AWAY).
    • Two beeps: the AWAY light comes on. Leave before exit time runs out; one long beep then means it is set.
    • A long beep and no AWAY light means a zone is open: close it or isolate it first.
    • If enabled, holding # until two beeps also arms. On a 6+6 with any CP6 connected, use your code then AWAY instead.
    • From the factory, code 0 arms but never disarms. Unless your installer removed it, key in 0, then press #.

Why is my keypad beeping or showing a trouble light?

Most keypads beep or light up a trouble indicator when something needs attention, such as a low backup battery, a power cut or a lost phone or internet connection. Your user guide explains what each light or code means on your model. If it keeps happening, or you are not sure, call your installer or monitoring company.

Is anyone watching your alarm?

An alarm that only makes a noise relies on someone hearing it. A monitored alarm reports to our A1 graded, NZSA approved control room, watched 24/7 by a team that is New Zealand owned and operated. We can monitor most existing alarms, so you may not need a new one. Thinking about a new alarm or security cameras? Ask us for a quote.
