3 - Emergency

Any accessories in a Zone with this setting will trigger the 

alarm immediately, even if the system is disarmed. This is 

ideal for certain types of accessories, such as smoke alarms, 

panic buttons, etc.

4 - Disabled

Any accessories in a Zone with this setting will not trigger 

the alarm, even if the system is armed.

5 - Away Armed Mode

Any accessories in a Zone with this setting will trigger the 

alarm when it’s armed in Out Mode. 

If the system is armed in Home Mode, or if the system is 

disarmed, then the accessories will not do anything when 

triggered.

By default, any motion detectors included with your sys-

tem are pre-programmed in Away Armed Mode. That way, 

you can still move around inside your house at night with-

out triggering the alarm, but the doors and windows will 

still be armed and protecting the perimeter of your house.
