arming diagnostics

If the security system is armed at the same time that an input is

active (such as a door opening or sensor triggering), you will hear

one siren chirp to indicate arming and a second siren chirp to indi-

cate Bypass Notification. A Bypass Notification chirp means that

the security system ignores the input that was active when the

system was armed, until that input ceases. Three seconds after that

input ceases, the security system will resume normal monitoring.

For example, if your vehicle has an interior light exit delay and you

arm your security system before the interior light turns off, you

may hear a second Bypass Notification chirp. Once the light turns

off, however, the security system resumes normal monitoring.

disarming diagnostics

Extra chirps that are heard when disarming the system are the

Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming the

system, then the security system was triggered in your absence. If

five chirps are heard when disarming the system, a zone was trig-

gered so many times that the Nuisance Protection Circuitry

™

has

bypassed that zone. In either case, the status LED will indicate

which zone was involved (see

Table of Zones section). The secu-

rity system will retain this information in its memory and chirp

four or five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time

that the ignition is turned on.

➜

note: Bypass Notification does not occur when the sys-
tem is in Silent Mode or if the notification chirps have
been programmed off by the installer.
