What Happens When You Arm the Security System
To arm the system into one of the 6 security modes, from the security menu, choose the security mode and press the appropriate
key (1 - 6), and then enter your user code number on the console keypad or use one of the Shortcut Keys as described.
¾ The console will beep once and the console LED will be set to red
¾ The controller will cycle power to reset smoke detectors
¾ The top line will display the security mode.
¾ The bottom line will display, " *** ARMING SYSTEM *** " to indicate that the system is being armed.
The system will be fully armed after the Exit Delay expires.
If arming in Away or Vacation mode:
¾ Consoles configured with Audible Exit Delay enabled, will beep until the Exit Delay has expired. During the last 10
second of the Exit Delay, the console will beep twice as fast; so leave and close the door promptly.
¾ If enabled, “Exit Time Restart” will restart the exit delay if the same zone is violated twice within the original exit delay.
For example, after arming the system if you open the front door to leave, close the front door behind you, and then
reenter through the front door while the exit delay is still in effect, the exit delay will be restarted. This is designed to
give you additional time to exit without causing an alarm. The exit time will only be restarted once within a given
arming period.
¾ If “Unvacated Premises” is enabled, if no exit zone is violated during the exit delay (i.e. the premises was not vacated),
the system will automatically arm to Day mode at the expiration of the exit delay.
NOTE: In Commercial Burglar Alarm Applications for UL Certified Systems, a Ring-back indication and Bell-test should be
heard after arming (closing). If not heard, call for service.
Exit Error
The Exit Error feature is designed to prevent accidental alarms caused by an error while arming. If an entry-exit zone is
“Not Ready” (unsecured) when the exit delay expires, the Exit Error sequence is initiated as follows:
¾ The sounder(s) are activated
¾ Console Entry Chime comes on
¾ The console display indicates: " *** DISARM SYSTEM *** - PRESS OFF THEN CODE"
¾ The system will wait the Entry Delay time
If the security system is not turned off during the Entry Delay:
¾ The display shows the type of alarm and the violated zone: "BURGLAR ALARM! - ZONE NAME TRIPPED"
¾ The system waits the Dial Out Delay, then if configured, begins to dial out
¾ The central station will be sent a code representing the type of alarm, zone violated, and an Exit Error code
¾ The When Alarm macro is activated (any associated programs will be executed)
¾ The Flash For Alarm Unit Number begins to flash on and off.
Note: The Exit Error feature is incompatible with “Auto Bypass”. If enabled, Auto Bypass will override this feature.
