Press it and see what happens.


Did try that Mr Muntz - with fingers in ears! But since the system isn't
armed, nothing happened.


I would have thought that if they were panic buttons then they were
more likely to be needed when the alarm was not armed, so the above
doesn't quite make sense.


In this case, 'armed' probably means 'turned on'. Those circuits are
generally 'live' the whole time the alarm system is on.
