Section 5: System operation
2. User code and proximity tag - the user must enter a valid code and present a proximity tag to access the system. The user code
and proximity tag must match. For example, if the tag is associated with user 0004, user code 0004 must be entered after presenting
the tag. Any other user code is treated as invalid.
See "[040] User Authentication" on page 120
.
Note:
An access code does not have to be programmed in order for a proximity tag or wireless key to be operational.
[*][6] User functions
The [*][6] command provides access to functions described below. If section [023] option 8 is on, any user code can access this menu.
If option 7 is off, only the master or supervisor code can access this menu.
Event buffer
Menu: [*][6][Master Code] > Event Buffer
Keypad: [*][6][Master Code] > [*]
This option is used to view system events stored in the event buffer.
Events are listed in the order they occurred, starting with the most recent. The time and date are listed for all events. Some events
may have a second screen with a description. An asterisk (*) on the first screen indicates that a second screen is available.
If programmed, the event buffer automatically uploads to DLS/SA when it reaches 75% capacity.

Auto-arm/Disarm
Menu: [*][6][Master Code] > Auto Arm/Disarm
Keypad: [*][6][Master Code] + 02
With this feature enabled, the alarm system automatically arms in away mode (stay/away zones active) or disarms at a programmed
time each day (see Auto-Arm Time below). The keypad emits three beeps to indicate the auto arming is enabled and one long beep
to indicate auto arming is disabled.
All arming inhibit features such as latching tampers, AC inhibit, etc. also inhibit Auto Arming and send the Auto Arm Cancellation
code.
Auto-arm time
Menu: [*][6][Master Code] > Auto Arm Time
Keypad: [*][6][Master Code] + 03
This function is used to program the time of day each alarm system partition automatically arms. To program an auto-arm time, select
a day of the week and then key in the time. Valid time entries are 00-23 hours: 00-59 minutes.
At the programmed time, the keypad buzzers beep for a programmed duration (for ULC commercial burglary installations minimum
duration is 10 minutes) to warn that automatic arming is in progress. The siren also squawks once every 10 seconds during this
warning period if programmed to do so. When the warning period is complete, the system arms in away mode.
Auto-arming can be canceled or postponed only by entering a valid access code during the programmed warning period. When a
code is entered, the warning is silenced and auto-arming is canceled or postponed, depending on the auto-arm postpone timer. The
Auto Arm Cancellation reporting code is transmitted (if programmed).
Note:
Auto-arming will not silence an active bell.
