Diagnostics
The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is con-
stantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are con-
nected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and pre-
vents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor
will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your
absence. Refer to the System Status Chirps and Table of Zones
charts for diagnostic information.
If the system is armed with an input active (door open, sensor
triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then
one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass
Notification.
NOTE:
Bypass Notification will not occur when using Silent Mode or if
chirps have been programmed OFF.
The security system will ignore the input that was active when the
system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds later
the system will monitor that input normally. For example, if your
vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system before
the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass Notification
chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors are monitored
normally.
