HOME MODE
✦ Use this mode when sleeping or when anyone is
staying inside.
✦ Home Mode causes an instant alarm when any
perimeter sensor is triggered.
✦ Home Mode causes a delayed alarm when any
exit/entry sensor is triggered (except in Home 
Instant Mode when they are instant).
✦ Each burglary sensor can trigger the siren once
per arming period.
✦ Alarm siren stops automatically after fi ve minutes
and the system will remain armed.
✦ Home Mode ignores all interior sensors (motion
detectors, etc.).
1A. Arm to Home Mode by entering a user code,
and pressing HOME.
1B. The user can “Quick Arm” to Home Mode from
Off or Chime Mode by pressing HOME for two 
seconds. (Quick arming can be disabled; see the 
“Advanced Programming” section of this manual.)
✴ When the system is armed to the Home Mode, the
keypad(s) will sound a “Gong” and two “Beeps”.
2. Enter a user code and press OFF or CHIME to
disarm from Home Mode and/or stop the alarm 
siren.
✴ If an alarm has occurred, multiple Beeps will sound after
disarming and the sensor indicator for the sensor(s) that 
caused the alarm will fl ash (switch to Off Mode again or 
re-arm the system to stop the fl ashing alarm memory).
SECURE EXIT
1. If the system is already in the Home Mode and
the user wants to exit the premises while leaving 
someone inside with the system still in Home 
Mode, enter a user code and press the HOME key.
✴ The HOME light will blink for 60 seconds. No exit delay
Beeps will sound during the Exit Delay.
2A. The user can leave through a door with a
delayed perimeter sensor during the 60 second 
Exit Delay without causing the Control Panel to 
begin an Entry Delay.
2B. Re-entering during the silent Exit Delay will
extend the Exit Delay another 60 seconds (one 
time only).
✎ NOTE: The Exit Delay time can be changed; see the
“Advanced Programming” section of this manual.
HOME INSTANT MODE
1. If the system is already in the Home Mode and
the user wants to make all exit/entry sensors 
instant, press HOME for two seconds.
✴ Two “Gongs” and two “Beeps” will sound and the HOME
light and ARMED indicator will blink continuously.
2. Because all exit/entry sensors will now cause an
instant alarm when in Home Mode, the system 
must be disarmed before opening any exit/entry 
delay door.
✎ NOTE: If quick arming is disabled the Home Instant
Mode is unavailable.
MANUAL BYPASSING OF SENSORS
✦ Manual bypassing of sensors in the Home Mode
allows arming of the system at night with open 
windows, while still having perimeter protection 
with other closed doors and windows.
✦ If the READY indicator is lit, all sensors are closed.
1. If the READY indicator is not lit, the system will 
resist arming because of open door or window 
sensors.
✴ Four high-low Beeps to warn the user that something is
open and the system will remain in the previous mode.
✴ Lit sensor status indicators show which sensors are
open.
2. To manually bypass the open sensors, arm the
system again within fi ve seconds.
✴ A “Gong” and two “Beeps” will sound, the HOME
indicator will light, and the open sensors will be 
bypassed.
✎ WARNING: Bypassed sensors cannot cause an
alarm. Closing the sensor removes the bypass.
