Quick Exit in Away Mode
A
programmable
option
called
Quick
Exit
may
be
displayed
on
the
Securit
y
screen
while
the
system
is
armed
in
the
Away
mode.
Tapping
the
Quick
Exit
button
starts
a
timer
to
allow
someone
to
exit
or
enter
through
a
sensor
‐
protected
door
programmed
for
delay
without
having
to
disarm
the
entire
system.
When
the
delay
timer
runs
out,
the
system
returns
to
the
normal
Away
mode.
TIP:
If
interior
sensors
are
installed
in
the
system
in
certain
areas,
do
not
violate
those
sensors
when
using
the
Quick
Exit
feature
in
Away
mode.
Auto Stay Mode
The
system
may
have
been
programmed
by
the
installer
for
Auto
Stay
mode.
If
this
option
is
on
and
the
system
is
armed
in
Away
mode,
if
an
exit/entry
delay
sensor
is
not
triggered
before
the
Exit
Delay
expires
(no
one
leaves
the
premises),
the
system
automatically
arms
in
Stay
mode
instead
of
Away
mode.
NOTE:
Quick
options
can
be
turned
on
or
off
by
your
installer.
Refer
to
"Installer
Programmed
Options"
on
page

to
see
which
options
have
been
set
for
your
system.
