Zone Bypass
When the READY light is unlit on the LCD keypad (display will show
VIOLATED and the identifier of that zone will scroll through the display)
or zone light(s) are lit on the LED keypad. This zone is not secure,
such as zone 3 "FRONT BEDROOM" window, entering the User Code
will not arm the system. If a zone is intentionally left open and the rest
of the zones are to be armed, the open zone must be BYPASSED. To
bypass a zone, enter your user code, then enter the number of the
zone to be bypassed (in this case 3), then the (#) key.
All the other burglary zones except zone 3 will ARM and the LCD
display will scroll through ARMED, BYPASSED and ZONE 3. The LED
keypad's Status light and all active zone lights will be lit. Zone 3 is now
deactivated. If the window is closed and opened again, an alarm
condition will not result, as this burglary zone will be bypassed until
the system is disarmed. When the system is disarmed the bypass is
removed. Additional zones may be bypassed in the same manner, by
adding their zone numbers before pressing the (#) key.
If your installer has programmed your system to allow bypass-
ing of 24hr zones, the bypass must be removed by arming and
disarming the system.
NOTE: For safety concerns, Fire zones can not be bypassed
Bypassing a Group of Zones
The system may have been configured to allow bypassing all interior
zones easily with a simple command. The sequence for Group Bypass
is as follows:
Group Bypassing is normally used to turn the alarm system
"On" while remaining in the protected area.
