How to Bypass Zones
The Bypass function is used when you want to arm your system with one or more zones left open.
Bypassed zones are unprotected and do not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed.
•
Some systems do not allow you to bypass fire, carbon monoxide or emergency zones. On certain fire control
systems, a specified user may be allowed to bypass fire, carbon monoxide and system zones if the user was
enabled by your system installer.
•
Limits apply as to how many zones can be bypassed at one time. These limits are ten zones on residential
systems and five zones on commercial systems.
Press the SECURITY , MORE CHOICES and SHOW ZONES icons.
Highlight the zone(s) to be bypassed, press the
BYPASS SELECTED
icon and enter your 4-digit
user code . If zones have already been bypassed, the top of this screen indicates “ Ready Bypass. ”
Press the BACK icon to return to the “Arming” screen, and then arm the system in the desired
arming mode.
Notes:
•
If any zones are bypassed or faulted, a Faulted Zones icon is also displayed on the More
Choices screen.
•
While the keypad is requesting and receiving the zone data from the control panel, the screen
displays "
Please Wait! " Then the zones, along with their current status, are displayed.
How to Clear Bypassed Zones
A bypassed zone is automatically unbypassed when you disarm the system. If a zone is bypassed, you
can manually remove the bypass as follows:
Press the SHOW ZONES and CLEAR BYPASSES icons. Enter your 4-digit user code. The
system should now be Ready to Arm.
Notes:
•
While the keypad is requesting and receiving the zone data from the control panel, the screen
displays "
Please Wait! " Then the zones, along with their current status, are displayed.
•
If the system is armed and you unbypass a zone, it disarms the system. If zones are still
faulted (not ready) the system will indicate the status as “Not Ready Fault.”
How to Disarm the System
IMPORTANT: If you return to your home or business and the main burglary sounder is on, DO NOT
enter the premises, but call the police from a nearby safe location. If you return to your home or
business after an alarm has occurred and the main sounder has shut itself off, the keypad beeps rapidly
upon entering, indicating that an alarm has occurred during your absence.
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY
and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
The system may be disarmed using either of two methods. One method is employed when you enter the
premises and the other is when you have been in the premises with the system armed (i.e., Stay and
Night arming modes).
