Bypass Zones
Open zones - doors, windows, moving objects - must be closed or fixed, or you cannot arm the
alarm system. When there is no other option, you can bypass the zone and arm the system.
Bypassing is a one-time operation and time limited - A bypassed zone is automatically un-
bypassed as the alarm system is disarmed and you will need to repeat it any time you want to
arm, as long as the zone is at fault.
A bypassed zone does not trigger the alarm when opened, and can
breach the security of the premises.
Bypass a zone only when it cannot be closed. If the problem persists,
consult a technician.
