additional system information such as zone bypasses. This message indicates that all the
zones are READY and that there are currently no conditions that could prevent arming.
On the LED keypad the system is ready if the RDY LED is ON.
Arming Procedure
[USER]
Enter the four-digit user code. In order to arm the system the user must be defined as a valid
user within the partition. The system has been successfully armed when the following
display appears on the LCD keypad only:
ON: AWAY . . . . . . .
. . . Exit now . . .
The ARMED indicator will now be lit and the user may exit through an exit/entry zone for
the time period established as the exit delay. The EXIT NOW message on the second line of
the display will appear for the duration of the exit delay (LCD keypads only).
System Not Ready
If the system is not ready to be armed the LCD keypad display will scroll through the zones
that are currently not ready. For example;
NOT RDY: Zne 005
MASTER BEDROOM
SYSTEM NOT READY
This display indicates that zone number 13 is not ready. The display contains three digits to
display the zone number. When the problem with zone 13 has been corrected the READY
display will appear. Note: If more than one zone is not ready then the zones that are not
ready will scroll on the display approximately every two seconds.
On LED keypads, the RDY LED will be off when the system is not ready, and the zone(s)
LEDs that are not ready will be ON.
The system can not be armed if there are zones in TROUBLE condition. For example:
TROUBLE ZN 003
REAR FOIL
In order to clear a trouble display a valid user code must be entered. When the trouble has
been cleared the SYSTEM READY indication should reappear. Alternately, the reset
function (depression of the
✴
key based on programming option) can be performed to clear
troubles if the reset option has been enabled within the programming sequence.
In order to arm the system when not ready one of the following actions are necessary:
- Make the zone(s) ready. Determine which zones are not ready and perform the action
necessary to ready the zone(s) (example, close the door or window, etc.)
or
- Bypass the zones(s) that are not ready. Bypassing should only be performed if the zone
cannot be made ready or intentionally will remain not ready.
or
-
Force arm the system, bypassing all zones which are not ready.
The system can be armed without the back-up battery connected.
