www.gesecurity.com. Operation Use this document to quickly begin operating your Simon XT TableTop security system (model 600-1054-95R-ITT). Refer to your Simon XT TableTop User Manual for full operating details and programming options. Note: The default master code is 1-2-3-4 when the security system is shipped from the factory. You should change your code after your system is installed. To operate the security system:
Use the front panel buttons to arm/disarm the system when you enter or exit your home and to determine which sensors are active and the system status. Use the three fast action keys to communicate with the central monitoring station to report police, fire, or emergency alarms. Use a combination of the panel buttons and the display menu to program certain user features. This method is used by your installer to establish your system configuration. (Refer to your Simon XT TableTop User Manual.) Table 1 below describes the panel keys and features. Table 1: Panel keys and features.

Table 2: Arming levels Level Function Description 0 Subdisarm If your system includes 24-hour protection sensors, you must subdisarm the panel before accessing these areas to avoid causing an alarm. Environmental sensors (such as smoke or carbon monoxide detectors) stay active at all times. In this level, only 24-hour sensors are active. Disarm 1 2 3 4 Arm door and window sensors exterior This level arms the door and window sensors, while leaving the interior motion sensors disarmed. Arm motion sensors interior This level arms the interior motion sensors, while leaving the exterior door and window sensors disarmed. Arm doors/windows and motion sensors This level arms all sensors. To disarm (level 1):
1. Press Disarm. 2. Enter your code when the displays shows Enter Code. The panel displays and speaks Disarmed, the Disarm button lights up, and the panel beeps once. To arm doors and windows (level 2):
1. Ensure that all doors and windows are closed. 2. Press Doors+Windows. 3. Enter your code when the displays shows Enter Code, if a code is required. The panel displays Doors

Simon XT TableTop Quick Operation Guide 3 Programming Your Simon XT TableTop security system allows you to program certain user options, such as access codes, time schedules, or the system time. Refer to your Simon XT TableTop User Manual for programming options and details. Chimes Use the chime feature to signal when a protected door is opened while the system is disarmed. The panel chimes twice when a chime sensor is tripped, if the chime mode is enabled. This feature allows you to be notified when family members are going in and out of your home. The chime and special chime features are turned on or off in the System menu. Note: If there are no chime sensors in your system, the chime option will not appear in the System menu. Your installer may have programmed the system to speak the sensor name or make a custom chime sound when a chime sensor is tripped. The chime sound, if programmed, will be played in place of the standard chime beeps. To enable or disable the chime feature:
1. Scroll until the display shows Chime, and then press Enter. The current setting will flash. 2. Scroll to toggle the chime feature on or off, and then press Enter. The setting will stop flashing. 3. Press Status to exit. A solid bell icon will appear in the display when the chime feature is enabled. Special chime The special chime feature allows you to install motion sensors in a patio or at the front door, and be notified when someone is approaching those areas. These motion sensors are not used for intrusion protection. The panel will chime three times, if the special chime mode is enabled. Note: If there are no special chime sensors in your system, the special chime option will not appear in the menu. To enable or disable the special chime feature:
1. Scroll until the display shows Special Chime, and then press Enter. The current setting will flash. 2. Scroll to toggle the special chime feature on or off, and then press Enter. The setting will stop flashing. 3. Press Status to exit. An outlined bell icon will appear in the display when the special chime feature is enabled. Note: This menu option will not appear if special chime sensors are not in your system.
