Night Arming
To fully arm the system when it has been armed in Stay Mode, press at the keypad. All inte-
rior zones will now be armed except for devices programmed as Night Zones.
Night zones are only armed in Away mode, this permits limited movement within the premises when
the system is fully armed. Ensure that your installer has provided you with a list identifying zones pro-
grammed as night zones.
When the interior zones have been activated (i.e.,
) you must enter your access code to dis-
arm the system to gain access to interior areas that have not been programmed as night zones.
Silent Exit Delay
If the system is armed using the Stay key or using the ’No Entry’ Arming method ( [access
code]), the audible progress annunciation (keypad buzzer) will be silenced and the exit time will be
doubled for that exit period only.
Away Arming
Close all sensors (i.e. stop motion and close doors). The Ready ( ) indicator should be on.
To arm, press and hold the Away Key for 2 seconds and/or enter your Access Code, or press
to Quick Arm. During the setting state (exit delay active) the Armed ( ) and Ready (
) indicators will
turn on, and the keypad will sound one beep per second. You now have ____ seconds to leave the
premises (please check with your installer to have this time programmed). An audible annunciation,
whose pulsating rate is distinctly different, will sound during the last ten seconds of the exit delay to
warn person(s) that the exit delay is running out. To cancel the arming sequence, enter your access
code.
When the exit delay is completed, the alarm system is armed/set and this is indicated on the keypad
as follows: the Ready (
) indicator will turn off, the Armed ( ) indicator will remain on and the key-
pad will stop sounding.
Quick Exit
If the system is armed and you need to exit, use the Quick Exit function to avoid disarming and
rearming the system. Press and hold the Quick Exit key for 2 seconds or press
. You now have
2 minutes to leave the premises through your exit door. When the door is closed again, the remain-
ing exit time is cancelled.
Bell/Siren Sounds After Away Arming
Audible Exit Fault
In an attempt to reduce false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault is designed to notify you of an improper
exit when arming the system. In the event that you fail to securely close the Exit/Entry door during
the allotted exit delay period, the system will sound the alarm to indicate an improper exit.
Your installer will tell you if this feature has been enabled on your system. If this occurs:
1. Re-enter the premises.
2. Enter your [access code] to disarm the system. You must do this before the entry delay timer
expires.
3. Follow the Away arming procedure again, making sure to close the entry/exit door properly. (See
‘Stay Arming” on page 2..)
Arming Error
An error tone will sound if the system is unable to arm. This will happen if the system is not ready to
arm (i.e. sensors are open), or if an incorrect user code has been entered. If this happens, ensure all
sensors are secure, press
and try again. Please check with your installer to determine if arming is
inhibited by any other means.
Disarming
Enter your access code to disarm anytime the system is armed (Armed ( ) indicator is on). The key-
pad will sound a continuous tone after the entry delay has been initiated by opening the entry/exit
door. Enter your code within _____ seconds to avoid an alarm condition (check with your installer to
have this time programmed).
Disarming Error
If your code is invalid, the system will not disarm and a 2-second error tone will sound. If this hap-
pens, press
and try again.
