Arming and disarming the system
Arming the alarm system is an action that prepares the system to sound an alarm if a zone is
violated by motion, or by opening a door or window.
Disarming the alarm system restores the control panel to the normal standby state. In this state,
only
fire
and
24-hour
zones sound an alarm if violated, but a
panic
alarm can also be initiated.
The alarm system can be armed or disarmed using keyfobs and keypads.
Note:
• In the
armed state
, the system initiates an alarm upon detection of a disturbance in any
one of the armed zones.
• In the
disarmed state
, the system provides visual status information and initiates and
alarm if smoke is detected or upon disturbance in a 24-hour zone.
The system supports the following arming options:
Table 3: Arming options
Arm
away
Used to arm the system when the protected site is vacated entirely.
Arm
home
Used to arm the system when people are present within the protected site, for
example, during night-time at home. With
home
arming, perimeter zones are
protected but interior zones are not. Consequently, motion within interior zones
will be ignored by the control panel, but disturbance of a perimeter zone will
cause an alarm.
Quick arm
away
Used to arm
away
without the need to provide a user code.
Note:
the installer should enable this option, if required.
Quick arm
home
Used to arm
home
without the need to provide a user code.
Note:
the installer should enable this option, if required.
Forced
arming
Used to
arm away
when any of the system zones is disturbed (that is, system
not ready).
Note:
Bypassed zones are not protected throughout the arming period.
Bypassed zones remain unprotected until the system is disarmed.
Instant
arming
You can arm the system
away-instant
or
home-instant
, thereby canceling the
entry delay for all delay zones for the duration of one arming period.
Example: you may arm the system in home instant mode and remain within the
protected area. Only perimeter protection is active, and if you do not expect a
person to enter while the system is armed, alarm upon entry via the main door
is an advantage.
Latchkey
arming
A special disarming mode in which designated latchkey users (users 5 to 8) will
trigger a latchkey message to be sent to a designated telephone when they
disarm the system.
Example: A parent wants to ensure that their child has returned from school
and disarmed the system. Latchkey arming is only possible when the system is
armed
away
.
