ARMING THE SYSTEM
ARMING
ARMING the system will activate all portions of your Security System. Arming can
only be performed if all zones are READY. For example, if a protected door Is open the
system cannot be armed.
SYSTEM READY
The system Is ready to be armed if the READY indicator light ON. On LCD keypads the
following display will appear:
SYSTEM READY
If the system is ready, ARMING can be performed as follows:
ARMING PROCEDURE:
1. Enter your four digit user code into the keypad: [USER]
The ARMED indicator light will now be lit and if you are leaving the home you may exit
through a door designated by your Installer as an exit/entry zone for a fixed time period
known as the exit delay.
NOTE: The system can be armed without the backup battery being connected.
SYSTEM NOT READY
If the system is not ready to be armed the READY indicator will be OFF. On LED based
keypads the zone indicator lights will display the zones which are currently not ready.
The condition of each zone indicator reflects what the status of each zone as follows;
ALARM Fast blinking.
BYPASS Slow blinking low intensity.
TROUBLE Slow pulse
NOT READY Solid ON
The LCD keypad will display zones which are not ready with a SYSTEM NOT READY message
on the first line and the zone(s) that are not ready on the second line as shown below;
SYSTEM NOT READY
ZONE: 1 _ 3 __6
In the example above, zones 1 3 and 6 are not ready.
In order to make the system ready determine which zones are not ready by observing the
zone indicator lights, or the display section of the LOD keypad. From the zone number you
can find out which area of protection is not ready.
For example, assume the zone 3 is not ready. Typically this might mean that a protected
door or window is open.
Once the problems with each zone have been resolved the READY fight will appear and the
system can be armed.
To ARM the system when the system is NOT READY one of the following actions are
necessary;
- Make the zone(s) ready. Determine which zones are not ready and perform what is
necessary to ready the zone(s) (example, close the door or window, etc.),or
-Bypass the one(s) not ready. Bypassing should only be performed if the zone cannot be
made ready or intentionally will remain not ready. Remember. zones that are bypassed are
not protected when the system is armed,
DISARMING
Disarming the security system will deactivate the burglary portions of the system.
This procedure can also be used to reset your system if you accidentally set off the
system ( example, opened a window while the system was armed, or excessive amount of smoke
activated fire protection system).
DISARM PROCEDURE:
[USER]
Enter your user code.
IF NO ALARMS HAVE TAKEN PLACE
Upon disarming the ARMING indicator will go off.
The system display will reflect the current status. LCD keypads should display the
SYSTEM READY display.
IF ALARMS HAVE TAKEN PLACE
If alarms or other conditions such as system troubles have taken place since the
initial system arming, they will appear on the display. The conditions that have occurred
appear in the zone display of the keypad. LCD keypads will reflect the current system
status through the indicator lights as follows;
ALARM Fast blinking.
BYPASS Slow blinking low intensity.
TROUBLE Slow pulse
NOT READY Solid ON
Burglary alarms will be indicated with a STEADY sound through the keypad while FIRE
alarms will generate a pulsing sound.
LCD keypads will show the alarm conditions with a display as follows:
ALARM
ZONE:1_3_5
The second line of the display will show the zones which are in alarm. In the example
above, zones 1 3 and 5 are in alarm. After entry of your user code the display will
contain the following display;
ALARM MEM

enter [USER] again.
STAY
The STAY mode is another way to ARM your system while you remain
In the location. The STAY mode will deactivate any interior protection
zones which means that you will be free to walk throughout your location
without activating the alarm system.
In order to enter the STAY mode, the system must be READY. (see previous descriptions.
STAY PROCEDURE:
STAY[USER]
Depress the STAY key followed by your user code.
After a successful STAY arming the ARMED indicator will be lit. In addition, on LED
keypads the STAY indicator will be lit.
In LCD keypads the following display will appear;
ON:STAY
In the STAY mode only the external or perimeter burglary protection is active. You are
free to walk around the residence without activating any of the Interior protection zones.
Remember, you must DISARM the system to when you want to leave the premises.
Note: The STAY option will automatically be reset after the system is disarmed.
INSTANT
The INSTANT mode arms the system and eliminates the entry time delay Interval. This
mode could be used If anyone enters through an entry/exit zone the alarm system will
Instantly activate.
The system must be ready to select the INSTANT option.
INSTANT PROCEDURE:
INSTANT[USER]
Depress the INSTANT key followed by your user code.
Upon successful INSTANT ARMING of the system the ARMED indicator' will be lit. In
addition, on LED keypads the Instant indicator will be ON.
LCD keypads will contain the following message;
ON:INSTANT
Note: The INSTANT option will automatically be reset after the system is disarmed.
INSTANT - STAY
The INSTANT STAY mode will arm the system with the characteristics of both the INSTANT
and STAY modes. The system will be armed with the interior portions bypassed and the entry
delay will be suspended.
The system must be READY in order to enter this mode.
PROCEDURE:
INSTANT STAY [USER]
or
STAY INSTANT [USER]
Depress the INSTANT and STAY keys In any order followed by your user code.
After a successful INSTANT STAY arming, the ARMED indicator will be lit. In addition,
on LED keypads both the INSTANT and STAY lights will be on.
LCD keypads will contain the following message;
ON:STAY INSTANT
BYPASS
Bypasses are performed to eliminate burglary zones that are not ready or faulty from
activating the security system.
BYPASS PROCEDURE:
BYPASS [USER] ZN
Depress the BYPASS key followed by your user code and zone number (1 ~-6) to be
bypassed.
Example:
BYPASS [USER] 2 Will bypass zone 2.
If the zone has already been bypassed, the sequence will un-bypass the zone except if
the system is armed and the un~bypassed zone is still not ready. Un~bypass means that the
zone returns as an active burglary zone.
After the bypass (or un~bypass) command has been accepted the unit will emit a
continuous beep and zone or zones that have been bypassed will appear in a slow blinking
mode in the zone status area on LED keypads.
LCD keypads will display the zone bypasses with the zones bypassed on the second line
of the display as shown below. The top line can contain either the SYSTEM READY or NOT
READY message.
[SYSTEM READY]
BYP: 1_3_5
In this example, zones 1 3 and 5 have been bypassed.
UNBYPASS
The UNBYPASS function removes an existing bypass from a currently bypassed zone. After
UNBYPASSING a zone, the bypass indication will be removed for that zone on either the LCD
or LED keypad.
The procedure is similar to a bypass.
UNBYPASS PROCEDURE:
BYPASS [USER] ~ZN
See bypass description.
