2. On the panel, enter the Interactive Services menu. Interactive Services can be accessed, via section [851]
of Installer Programming.
3. Press [*][8] [Installer Code] [851].
4. Scroll to Image Sensor Setup and press [*].
5. Scroll to Learn Image Sensor and press [*]. The will display "Power up or reset I.S. now."
6. Insert the batteries into the sensor. Wait approximately 20 seconds for the control panel screen to display:
"I.S. [x] Added as Sensor [y]." The LED on the sensor will turn solid for 5 seconds, once the sensor has
enrolled.
7. Perform another panel comm-test to ensure that Alarm.com receives the updated device equipment list.
This will speed up the sensor initialization process.
The zone serial number will be programmed automatically as FFFFXX into the next available slot in sec-
l
tion [804][001]-[064] to indicate the zone is an image sensor. The last 2 digits XX are used to map the
image sensor number and the range is 01-FF. For example, zone slot 12 is programmed with serial number
FFFF03. This means image sensor 3 is assigned to actual zone slot 12.
Zone type and attribute can be assigned in the installer menu, in a similar way as other regular zones.

LTE phone test (module registration)
To initiate module communication with Alarm.com and the LTE network for the first time, perform an "LTE
phone test". Note that the phone test can also be used at any time by the installer to force communication with
Alarm.com. A phone test can also be completed through the Interactive Services menu. Perform a phone test
by pressing and holding [3] for two seconds. To perform the phone test on an IMPASSA press [*][6] followed
by the master code and [4].
The IMPASSA panel indicates when the LTE phone test has completed by activating the siren output on
medium volume for 2 seconds followed by full volume for 2 seconds. However, if the phone test was initiated
via the [3] key, or through the Interactive Services menu, the siren will not sound. All display lights and LCD
pixels turn on. This indicates that Alarm.com has received and acknowledged the signal. This does not guar-
antee that the signal went through to a central station; it confirms that Alarm.com's Network Operations
Center received the signal. The central station should be contacted directly to verify that the signal was
received on the correct account and that the central station routing settings have been set up correctly. If the
signal does not go through to the Central Station, the panel will display a "Failure to Communicate" message.
Double check the account's Central Station Forwarding Settings on Alarm.com and contact technical support if
the trouble persists.

Night arming
The IMPASSA panel has the ability to night arm, which arms the perimeter and restricts movement to des-
ignated interior areas. Night arming via the panel should be restricted to one of the five function keys. For

with the panel.
