Entry/Exit Delays 
Your system has preset time delays, referred to as exit delay and 
entry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you 
time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an 
alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any arming 
command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If 
programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay 
period. 
Entry delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter 
through the designated entrance door. But the system must be 
disarmed before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. 
The keypad will beep during the entry delay period, reminding you to 
disarm the system. Ask your installer about the delay times 
programmed into your system. 
Alarms 
When an alarm occurs, the 6270 (and any other keypads) and 
external sounders will sound, and the zone(s) causing the alarm are 
displayed. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, 
an alarm message will also be sent.  To stop the alarm sounding, 
simply disarm the system. 
Memory of Alarm 
When an alarm condition occurs, the number(s) of the zone(s) that 
caused the problem are displayed, along with the type of alarm. These 
remain displayed until cleared by disarming the system. 
Fire Protection 
The optional fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is 
always on and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected.

code in order to gain access to various features and functions. Users 
for the system are programmed in a central user setup location that 
provides the specific questions for authorization level, partition 
assignment, and RF button assignment. 
Extended Functionality 
Extended functions are advanced functions that can be accessed 
through a standard alpha keypad or through emulation mode on your 
6270 touch screen.  Refer to your Control Panel User Guide for these 
features.
