Arm Mode
Arming the System
You should arm the system when you are the last person to leave the house. By arming the
system, the control panel will call the preprogrammed emergency phone numbers and siren will
sound when break-in occurs.
Note: Only arm the system when nobody is expected to be inside the premises. When
someone is expected to be within the premises, the system should not be armed.
To arm the system, follow the procedures below:
1. Press “Arm” button on the control panel when no sensors are triggered. You can also use
the keychain remote to arm the system by pressing button 1 on the remote.
Note:
•
The control panel cannot be armed if there are triggered sensors. Make sure all
sensors are in closed position, i.e. (close all doors, windows, no movement should be
detected etc).
•
The control panel can be armed if there are sensors with low battery or failure warning.
2. After pressing the “ARM” button, the “ARM” LED will flash and you will have 45 seconds to
leave the premises, this is called the exit delay. You will hear beeping during the exit delay
interval. The beeping rate will change from slow to fast, the faster the beep rate, the less
time you have left to leave the premises before the siren sounds.
3. When the exit delay expires, you will hear “System Armed” and beeping will stop and the
ARM LED will be on steadily. This indicates the system is now armed.
Note: The control panel can also be armed even nobody is home, with a touch tone phone.
Please refer to “Remote Operation by Telephone”
Disarming the system
If you trigger a sensor when entering a house with an armed control panel, you will trigger the
entry delay. You will have 30 seconds to disarm the control panel. Otherwise, the siren will
sound and emergency calls will be made. To disarm the control panel, follow the instructions
below.
1. If any sensors are now triggered when the control panel is armed, the system will beep for
30 seconds, and ARM LED will flash during this entry delay interval. The faster the beep,
the less time you have left to disarm the control panel before the siren sounds.
2. You must enter a valid password (either the Master Password, or Secondary Password) in
order to disarm the system before the entry delay expires. The system can also be
disarmed by pressing button 3 on the keychain remote.
3. When a valid password is entered, you will hear “System Disarmed” and the entry delay
beeping will stop, the ARM LED will be off.
