Checking System Status 
General Information 
Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows, and other protection zones must be closed or 
bypassed (see the BYPASSING PROTECTION section). Pressing the 
STATUS key will announce all 
zones that are faulted, as well as any other abnormal system condition, making it easier for you to 
secure any open zones. 
 
READY LIGHT:  The green READY indicator on the keypad will be lit if the system is ready to be 
armed....

NOTE:  The control will provide a short confirmation ding when it has been armed using an RF Key Fob. 
Arming in Stay Mode 
Use this mode when you are staying home, but expect someone to use the entrance door later.  Close all 
protected perimeter windows and doors before arming.  The green READY indicator on the keypad 
should be lit if the system is ready to be armed.

Arming the System  
Auto Stay Feature 
If this feature is enabled by installer, the system, when armed AWAY from the control keypad or a 
Wireless Keypad, switches to the STAY mode if the Exit Time expires and no one has exited the 
premises.  
 NOTES:  (1)  If the exit route entry/exit sensor is in a check condition or has been bypassed it will 
result in a loss of interior protection because the alarm system will arm STAY in this 
case. Consult with your installer...

Entry/Exit Delays 
 
Exit Delay 
Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through the 
designated exit door without setting off an alarm.  A slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay 
period, if programmed. . During the last 10 seconds of the exit delay fast beeps will sound as a warning 
that the delay time is nearing its end. The exit beeps cannot be silenced.

OFF key to disarm the system and to silence alarm and trouble sounds. See the SUMMARY 
OF AUDIBLE NOTIFICATION section for information, which will help you to distinguish between fire 
and burglary alarm sounds.

Bypassing Protection Zones 
 
Bypassing Individual Zones 
Use the  BYPASS key when you want to arm your system with one or more zones intentionally 
unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while your 
system is armed. All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is 
performed. Bypasses are also removed if the arming procedure that follows the bypass command is 
not successful. 
The system will not...
