![]() Test Drive an ADEMCO Security System Online |

|
An ADEMCO security system is exceptionally easy to use. See for yourself, with this Shockwave demo, which realistically simulates the operation of an ADEMCO Security System. The demo will take a few minutes to load with a 28.8 connection. Once you have it loaded, and once you have viewed the interactive keypad, you will be able to come back to it quickly and easily, as it will reside in your browser's cache. So, be patient, it will be worth it. The keypad is fully interactive, and realistic. You'll need Shockwave®, and Netscape 2.0+ or Internet Explorer 3.0+ to give it a try. Once it loads, you will want to read the instructions below. Please know that this interactive demo works very well, but it does not always work perfectly the first time -- at least not right away. The first time you run it, you may have to do a "refresh" after it has first loaded. When working properly, it operates quickly, with pretty accurate sound. As I indicated above, once it gets stored in your browser's cache, it will load as quickly as any page. Want to give it a go?
Then click on the Shockwave icon to download the free Shockwave plug-in.
...And, remember, it will take a little while to download. Just follow the
instructions provided on the "Shockwave" web page: |

| To begin the presentation: Press Start.
SECRET CODE: A 4-digit secret code gives you access to your home or business. In this demo, the secret code is 1234. Enter the code and then follow it with the function of your choice... |
ARMING AWAY - Your Code
+ AWAY (1234+2) - Use this when you're leaving your home or business, and
no one else is there. The entire security system is activated. DISARMING - Your Code + OFF (1234+1) - Turns off protection. It doesn't affect any fire protection you have, which is always on. ARMING STAY - Your Code + STAY (1234+3) - Use this when you're home, but others in the family are not. It turns off inside motion detectors (so you can walk around), but your home is protected against an entry from the outside. Late arrivals have to disarm the system upon entering. ARMING INSTANT - Your Code + Instant (1234+ 7) - Use this when everyone is in for the night. Again, you can walk around inside, but opening any protected door or window will cause an immediate alarm. Open and close the door and window by clicking on them with the left mouse button. |
| ENTRY/EXIT TIME: After you arm your
system, you usually have around 30-45 seconds to leave the house before it's "All
Secure". When you come back - you also have some time to turn off the system before
the alarm sounds. In this demo, the entry/exit time is set at 10 seconds... just to keep
things moving. Here's A Shortcut! - Using Quickarm, you can arm the system without entering your code. Just enter the pound (#) key and the arming function of your choice (Away, Stay, Instant). PANIC: The keys on the left of your keypad let you call for help in case of a police, fire or medical emergency. The key must be held down for 3 seconds for an emergency signal to be sent.. By the way, to activate the demo panic keys - hold your left mouse button down for 3 seconds. |
|
| OTHER STUFF | |
| BYPASS - Your
Code + 6 + Zone (1234-6-02
bypasses zone 2) - This temporarily removes a protected point from the system, like a
bedroom window on a hot night. Here's another way to bypass: open the window and enter
your code and the bypass key (1234+6). The open window is automatically bypassed. CHIME - Your Code + Chime (1234-9) - The system notifies you with a beep when a protected door or window is opened. To turn Chime off - Your Code + Chime (1234-9). |
