Alternate Arming Methods
Away Arming
Arming the system in the Away mode will have all interior zones and perimeter zones active. If
motion is detected in the interior zones, or if one of the perimeter zones is violated, the alarm
sequence will begin.
To arm in the Away mode, enter your access code and exit the premises through a designated Exit/
Entry door. The system will recognize that occupants have left the premises. Once the exit delay
expires, the system will be fully armed.
You can restart the exit delay once by pressing the Away button before the exit delay expires.
Audible Exit Fault
In an attempt to reduce false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault is designed to notify you of an improper
exit when arming the system in the Away mode. In the event that you fail to exit the premises during
the allotted exit delay period, or if you do not securely close the Exit/Entry door, the system will
notify you that it was improperly armed in two ways: the keypad will emit one continuous beep and
the bell or siren will sound. If this occurs, you must re-enter the premises, enter your access code to
disarm the system, and then follow the arming procedure again, making sure to exit the premises in
the proper fashion.
Stay Arming
This feature, if enabled by your installer, will allow you to arm the perimeter zones while leaving the
interior zones inactive so that you can remain on the premises while the system is armed. When you
enter your security code to arm the system and
do not exit the premises through a designated Exit/
Entry door, the system will arm in the Stay mode, automatically bypassing the interior zones.
The interior zones can be reactivated at any time by entering [
✱
][1] at any keypad. If you reactivate
the interior zones, be sure to only inhabit areas not covered by motion detectors. To access areas
protected by motion sensors, you must enter your security code and disarm the system.
Arming Without Entry Delay
If you wish to arm your system without the entry delay, enter [
✱
][9] then your access code. The
Armed light will flash as a reminder that the system is armed and has no entry delay. An entry
through any zone programmed as a delay zone will create an instant alarm.
Quick Arm
When the Quick Arm feature is enabled, the system may be armed by simply pressing [
✱
][0]
instead of your access code. Please note that pressing [
✱
][0] will only allow you to arm the system;
to disarm, you must enter a valid access code. Your installer will inform you if the Quick Arm feature
has been enabled on your system.
Quick Exit
When the Quick Exit feature is enabled, pressing [
✱
][0] while the system is armed will provide a two
minute window for you to exit the premises.
During this time, you may only open and close the
designated Entry/Exit door once.
Once the door is closed, the panel will end the two minute quick
exit delay. If the door is opened again, or if the door is not closed after two minutes, or if another
zone is opened, the panel will begin the entry delay. Your
installer
will inform you if the Quick Exit
feature has been enabled on your system.
