 Overview 3Chapter 1: OverviewWhat’s in this chapter:• Introduction• Basic OperationThis chapter will give you a basic overview of your Magellan system. This chapter will cover Magellan’s light indicators, keypads and remote controls. This chapter also includes sections explaining how to use this guide and what the icons used mean.
 4User GuideIntroductionMagellan is the first security system to combine security with popular consumer features and a stylish design. Magellan looks different than anything else in the security industry. Install it anywhere in your home or small business, Magellan blends beautifully with any décor. Listen to the radio, leave a message or use your system as a telephone, alarm clock or monitoring device. Magellan consists of wireless detection devices installed at specific entry and exit points, as well as other vulnerable areas, such as windows. These devices protect the premises and communicate with Magellan’s main console. If you have armed the system and a device detects a breach, a siren will be activated and your central station will immediately be notified by phone. Choose from wireless motion detectors that are immune to pets, door contacts, and remote controls that automate your most frequently used security functions. With Magellan you have security and so much more:• Built-in FM radio (page 25)• Hands-free telephone (page 27)• Family message center (page 24)• Access system features by phone (page 34)• Alarm clock (page 26)• Chiming (page 28)• Voice, Utility and Pager reporting (page 40 to page 43)• One-touch arming (page 14) and emergency keys (page 22)• Full, force, stay, instant and automatic arming (page 12)• X10 home automation (page 31)• 16 wireless zones, 16 remote controls and 16 users

 Arming / Disarming 11Chapter 2: Arming / DisarmingWhat’s in this chapter:•Arming• Disarming• Fire Alarms• Panic AlarmsThis chapter will cover the multiple arming methods that Magellan employs such as Regular arming and Stay arming. This chapter will also cover disarming the system, what to do during a fire alarm, fire safety tips, and Panic alarms.
 12 User GuideArmingWhen your system is armed, it can respond to any breach in the protected zones by generating an alarm and by transmitting a report to your Central Monitoring Station. Though the arming methods explained in this section pertain to arming through Magellan’s keypad, the system can also be armed using your remote control. See Remote Controls on page 8.Exit Delay TimerWhen you arm your system, it will trigger the Exit Delay timer to provide you with enough time to exit the protected area before your system is armed. You can program the Exit Delay timer from 1 second to 255 seconds (default 45 seconds). Only the System Master user can program the Exit Delay timer. To program the Exit Delay timer:If a delay zone is opened and then closed while the system is in Exit Delay mode, the Exit Delay timer will be reduced to 10 seconds.Regular ArmingThis method is used for the everyday arming of your system. All defined zones in the system must be closed (the green READY light in ON) to Regular arm the system. To Regular arm your system:SystemMaster codeExit delay from 001 to 255 secondspress until desired tonemenu next next ok ok next okUser code
 Arming / Disarming 13Stay ArmingStay arming will partially arm your system to permit you to remain in your home by arming the outer zones of your system (i.e. doors and windows) and ignoring interior zones (motion detectors). All defined zones in the system must be closed (the green READY light is ON) to Stay arm the system. To Stay arm your system:Instant ArmingThis arming method is the same as Stay arming (page 13) except that the Entry Delay timer (see page 16) is ignored. Therefore, any armed zone that is breached will immediately generate an alarm. To Instant arm your system:Force ArmingForce arming will ignore open zones to allow you to arm your system. However, once the zone is closed, your system will then arm that zone as well. This feature is useful when a motion detector is protecting the area where your Magellan console is located. During Force arming, the motion detector will remain unarmed (ignored) until you exit the area that it protects. The system will then arm the motion detector. By default, your system is programmed with this feature. You can also Force arm your system using your remote control (see page 8).User codeUser codePress & hold for 3 secs.
 14 User GuideBypass ProgrammingYou can bypass certain zones when you arm the system. When a zone is bypassed, it will be ignored the next time you arm the system. Once the system is disarmed, the system will “unbypass” the zone. Zones that can be bypassed are defined by your installer. To bypass a zone:Fire zones cannot be bypassed.One-Touch ArmingIf enabled by your installer, you can arm your system with the following arming methods simply by pressing and holding (for three seconds) the appropriate function key. You do not have to enter your User code. See Figure 1 on page 7 for the location of the function keys. Table 1 below shows what function keys can be used for one-touch arming.Table 1: One-touch Arming Keys* = To Instant arm your system using one-touch arming, press and hold the [STAY ARM] key and then during Exit Delay mode, press and hold the [STAY ARM] key once more.Function Key Arming Method key Stay arm (page 13) key Instant arm* (page 13) key Regular arm (page 12)Press until desired zoneThe light   will turn ON whenever a zone or multiple zones are bypassed.menu next byp
 Arming / Disarming 15Auto-ArmingYou can set the time that the system will arm itself automatically. There are two methods of auto-arming:Timed Auto-ArmingYour installer can set the Timed Auto-arming method to function in either Regular or Stay arming modes. A sixty-second Exit Delay sequence will begin prior to your system automatically arming itself at the programmed time. To set the Timed Auto-arming feature:No Movement Auto-ArmingYour system can be programmed to send a report to your Central Monitoring Station and/or arm the system if there is no activity in the system during a specified period of time. Your installer can set No Movement Auto-arming to function in either Regular or Stay arming modes. Talk to your installer for more information.Program timemenu on ok ok ok
 16 User GuideDisarmingWhen your system is disarmed, it deactivates any alarms in progress and it deactivates the zones so an alarm will not be triggered if zones are breached.Entry Delay TimerYour installer will program designated entry points (i.e. the front door) with an Entry Delay timer. This delay gives you time to enter the armed premises and enter your User code to disarm your system before the alarm is triggered. Up to two Entry Delay timers can be programmed in your Magellan console.Programming the Entry Delay TimerProgram the Entry Delay timer with a value that will give you ample time to disarm your system before the alarm is triggered. Only the System Master user can program the Entry Delay Timer. To program the timer:Disarming an Armed SystemWhen an entry point, like the front door, is opened, Magellan will produce a sound indicating that the system has started the Entry Delay timer (page 16). If a valid User code is entered before the Entry Delay timer elapses, your system will disarm and will not generate an alarm.

 Arming / Disarming 17Disarming a System in AlarmTo disarm a system in alarm:In the case of a burglar alarm, leave the premises immediately and call the Police from a safe location (i.e. neighbours).Alarm Memory DisplayWhen an alarm has occurred in your system, the Magellan console will store that alarm in its alarm memory. All zones where alarms have occurred will be stored in the alarm memory. The system will erase the contents of the alarm memory every time the system is armed. The Magellan console will indicate that there is an alarm in memory by illuminating the   light and by displaying the information symbol (see page 8) on the LCD screen.

 Arming / Disarming 19Standard Fire ZonesDuring a fire alarm, the siren emits an intermittent sound (BEEP-BEEP-BEEP) until silenced or reset. If the zone is a Standard Fire Zone, your system can immediately send an alert to your Central Monitoring Station. To disarm a false alarm:Delayed Fire ZonesIf the zone is a Delayed Fire Zone, there is an automatic delay before your system contacts your Central Monitoring Station. Refer to Figure 3 on page 20 to prevent unnecessary reporting of false alarms. To clear a fire alarm triggered by accident:If you are unable to cancel the false alarm, your system will send an alert. Call your Central Monitoring Station to advise them of the false alarm.User codeCall your Central Monitoring Station quickly to advise them of the false alarm.Press within 30 seconds of alarmClear problem from area (i.e. smoke around the smoke detector).If the problem remains after 90 seconds, the alarm will sound again.Alert will be delayed by another 30 seconds

 Arming / Disarming 21Fire Safety TipsHow should you prepare in case of a fire in your home or business?• Remind everyone to escape first, and then call for help. • Develop a fire escape plan and designate a meeting place outside. • Practice the escape plan frequently.• Plan two ways to escape from every room, if possible. • Practice feeling the way out with eyes closed. • Instruct everyone never to stand up during a fire, always crawl under the smoke and keep mouths covered. • Instruct everyone never to return to a burning building for any reason; it may cost them their life.• Check smoke detectors regularly. Working smoke detectors dramatically increase everyone's chances of surviving a fire.Minimizing Home Fire HazardsHow can you avoid the three most common causes of fires at home?• Never leave cooking food unattended. It is the leading cause of fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure. • Stay alert when smoking. Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths. Smoke detectors and smoulder-resistant bedding and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents. • Maintain your heating system. Faulty heating systems are the second leading cause of residential fires.
 22 User GuidePanic AlarmsYour system can be programmed to send an alarm to your Central Monitoring Station to request help from the police, a medical facility, the fire department or anyone you wish when you press a pre-determined combination of keys from Magellan’s Main keypad. To generate a panic alarm, simultaneously press and hold the key combinations displayed in Figure 4.
