Turning On
Your System
While You Are
At Home (Stay
Mode)
Use the Stay mode when you want to stay on the premises, and also want to pre-
vent unauthorized entry from outside. The system will only turn on the perimeter
zones (e.g. door and window contacts), and will leave the interior zones off (e.g.
motion detectors) so that you will be free to move around inside.
1. Check that your system is ready (green Ready light is ON)
2. Enter your [access code]. As you enter each digit, the keypad sounder beeps.
If you entered the access code incorrectly, the keypad sounder will buzz steadily
for two seconds. Re-enter your access code correctly.
When you enter a valid access code:
• The keypad sounds fast beeps.
• The red (Armed) light turns ON.
• The exit time begins and the keypad beeps once every second. The keypad
will beep quickly for the last 10 seconds of the exit time.
3. DO NOT leave through the entry/exit door. This tells the system that you are not
leaving, and the system automatically turns off the interior zones.
At the end of the exit time, all keypad lights, except the red (Armed) and yellow
(System) lights, turn OFF. The system is now on.
Re-activate bypassed zones
To turn on the rest of the system when it is in Stay mode:
1. Press

NOTE:
When you have turned on the interior zones, you will not be able to
enter areas protected by motion detectors, or open doors and windows. To
access these areas, you must enter your [access code] and turn off the sys-
tem.
