2 = NIGHT
The NIGHT mode is used when you are asleep and everyone in your household is at home. In the Night mode, your doors,
windows, and non-sleeping area (i.e. downstairs) motion detectors are armed. In the Night mode, there is no entry delay. The
alarm system sounder will be activated immediately if any door, window, or non-sleeping area (motion detector) is tripped.
3 = AWAY
Use the AWAY mode when you leave your house and no one is home. All doors, windows, and motion detectors are armed. All
zones have an Exit Delay so that you will have time to leave and close the door after you arm the system. The system will be
fully armed after the Exit Delay. There is an Entry Delay on the Entry-Exit zones in the Away mode, so that you will have time
to turn the system off when you return through your door.
Note that the Entry Delay only applies if you come in through an Entry-Exit zone. If someone attempts to climb into a window,
or if an interior zone is tripped before the Entry-Exit zone, the alarm will be activated immediately. If you do enter through an
Entry-Exit zone first, then the other zones are disabled during the Entry Delay, in case you have to cross through another zone to
get to your console (an interior motion detector, for example).
4 = VACATION
This mode arms all doors, windows, and interior motion detectors (same as Away mode). There is an Entry Delay on the Entry-
Exit zones. Use this mode when you are leaving for a period of days.
5 = DAY INST
(DAY INSTANT)
Functions same as Day mode, however, there is no Entry Delay on any of the security zones. There will be an instant alarm if any
of the zones are violated while in this mode.
6 = NIGHT DLY
(NIGHT DELAY)
Functions same as Night mode, however, there is an Entry Delay on the Entry-Exit zones. Use this mode if you are going to sleep
but a family member is expected home at a later time.
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).
Enter your user code number on the console keypad.
The console will beep once and the console LED will be set to red. The top line will display the security mode. 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 and Audible Exit Delay is enabled, the console 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.
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.
Using Shortcut Keys
There are three shortcut keys on the console to arm the system in the Day, Night, and Away security modes, and Off to disarm,
without having to go into the security menu.
From the top-level display, press one of the shortcut security keys. Enter your code number on the console keypad.
The console will beep once and the console LED will be set to red. The top line will display the security mode to indicate that
you have correctly armed the system. The system will be fully armed after the Exit Delay expires.
