LYNX TOUCH L5200 SERIES SECURITY SYSTEM 
 
Quick Guide to User Functions 
 Full User Guide Available Online: This Quick Guide describes the most frequently used features and functions of your system. For full details of all user functions, please see the system’s User Guide located online at: http://www.security.honeywell.com/hsc/products (see LYNX Touch L5200 Security System User Guide P/N 800-16083 or higher). The full version User Guide is also available from your installer upon request.  Congratulations on your ownership of a Honeywell Security System. This system provides:  
•  Three forms of detection: burglary, fire and emergency (see your installer for which forms of detection are installed) 
•  At least one keypad which provides control of system and displays system status 
•  Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary detection 
•  Optional smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide early warning in case of fire. 
Your system may also be programmed to automatically send alarm and status messages to a Central Monitoring Station.  System Basics The following is a list of some of the most common features and 
functions of your system: 
•  Several modes of burglary detection: Stay, Away, Instant. 
•  Bypass feature lets you bypass selected zones while leaving the 
rest of the system armed.  
•  Chime mode alerts you to the opening of protected doors and 
windows while the system is disarmed. 
•  Fire and carbon monoxide detection are always active (if 
installed) and an alarm sounds if a fire or carbon monoxide 
condition is detected. 
•  Panic keys (if programmed) let you manually initiate fire, police 
and medical alarms using the keypad.  
•  4-digit security codes are used in conjunction with keypad 
commands to perform system functions.  
•  Each user (up to 32) can be assigned a different security code. 
•  The system sensing devices have been assigned to various 
“zones,” which are specific areas of detection (e.g., front door, 
kitchen window, etc.). 
•  Zone numbers (points of detection) are displayed at the keypad 
when an alarm or trouble condition occurs. 
•  Message Center allows recording and play-back of brief voice 
messages. 
• Two-way Voice allows the Central Station to listen, talk or 
conduct a two-way conversation with in individuals at the 
premises. See the full User Guide for details. 
• Follow me reminder announcements allow the panel to dial a 
number and deliver system status messages. See the full User 
Guide for details. 
•  A Scheduling feature can be programmed to automatically 
perform certain functions (e.g., arm the system) at a 
predetermined time each day. See the full User Guide for details.  Entry/Exit Delays • Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you 
enter through the designated entrance door.  
•  You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, 
or an alarm will occur (keypad beeps during the entry delay 
period, reminding you to disarm the system).  
• Exit delay gives you time after arming the system to leave 
through the designated exit door(s) without setting off an alarm. 
If programmed, a slow beeping will sound during the exit delay 
period until the last 10 seconds, which then changes to fast 
beeping (alerting you to the end of exit delay). If you cannot 
leave within this delay time period, you should stop, disarm the 
system, and start over to avoid a false alarm.  
• See your installer for your delay times. See the full User Guide 
for details on Exit Error alarms. 
Notes on Burglary Detection •  The system must be armed before the burglary detection can 
sense intrusions. 
•  To arm your system, select the desired arming key or icon and 
enter your security code. 
•  To arm your system, if the Quick Arm feature is enabled select 
the desired arming key or icon followed by the Quick Arm icon. 
You do not need to enter your security code. 
•  To disarm the system, select the Disarm icon and enter your 
security code. 
•  When an alarm occurs, the control sounds and displays the 
zone(s) causing the alarm. An external sounder may also 
sound, if installed. 
•  If your system is connected to a Central Monitoring Station, an 
alarm message is also sent (delayed 30 seconds by default to 
reduce false alarms). 
•  To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. 
• Memory of Alarm: When an alarm condition occurs, the 
keypad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the 
problem, and displays the type of alarm. Clear the Memory of 
Alarm display by entering another “off” sequence. 
 
IMPORTANT 
If you return to the premises and the burglary sounder is on, or the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.   Notes on Fire and CO Detection  •  Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, for 
continuous detection. In the event of an emergency, the 
smoke and heat detectors sound their alarms, triggering a 
loud, interrupted pulsed sound from the control and any 
external sounder(s) (if installed).  
•  You can silence the alarm at any time by entering an Off 
sequence. 
•  Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors, if installed, provide 
continuous detection. If a high level of carbon monoxide is 
detected, an interrupted pulsed alarm sound occurs at the 
control and the detector(s). Immediately move to a spot 
where fresh air is available, preferably outdoors. From a safe 
area, call your security service provider for further 
instructions. To silence the control sounding, enter an Off 
sequence. To silence the detector, see its instructions.

Testing the System Using the Test mode allows each detection point to be checked for proper operation. Testing 
should be conducted weekly to ensure proper operation. 
•  The keypad sounds a single beep about every 30 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the 
Test mode. Alarm messages are not sent to your Central Station during testing. 
If a problem is experienced with any detection point (no confirming sounds, no display), call for 
service immediately. 
1.  Disarm the system and close all protected windows, doors, etc. The ready indicator LED should 
be lit if all zones are intact. 
2.  At the Master Menu Screen Select the “Test” icon followed by the “Walk Test” icon. 
3.  Listen. The sounder should beep one time and “Walk Test-Off to Quit” should be displayed. The 
control sounds a single beep every 30 seconds while the test is in progress. If the sounder 
does not sound, CALL FOR SERVICE.   
4.  Fault zones. Open each protected door and window in turn and listen for three beeps from the 
keypad followed by the zone’s voice descriptor. Each faulted detection point should appear on 
the display. The display clears when the door or window is closed. 
5.  Walk in front of any interior motion detectors (if used) and listen for three beeps. Each detector 
should appear on the display when it is activated. The display clears when no motion is detected. 
Note that if wireless motion detectors are used, there is a 3-minute delay between activations to 
conserve battery life. 
6.  Test all smoke detectors, following the manufacturers instructions.  
7.  When all detection points have been checked and restored (closed), there should be no zone 
numbers displayed. 
8.  Exit test mode by entering an Off Sequence. System Settings Your system settings including volume level (message playback, system announcements, and 
status beeps) and display brightness and contrast can be adjusted if desired. Additionally, you can 
turn On/Off the Chime, Telephone Ringer and/or System Voice Announcements. A cleaning icon is
