your system ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with

any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60

minutes. If the bypassed sensor is triggered again while it is

already being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start

over. This ensures that a sensor that is continually being triggered

will remain bypassed.

The vehicle doors are protected differently. If your security system

is triggered by an open door for three, full 30-second cycles (one

and one half minutes), the system will bypass the doors until the

trigger ceases.

NOTE: Arming and disarming the system does not reset the False Alarm
Prevention. The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for that zone not
to be triggered for 60 minutes or to turn the ignition key on. When test-
ing your system, it is important to remember that this circuitry can cause
zones to be bypassed and appear to not work. If five chirps are heard
when disarming the system, False Alarm Protection was engaged. To clear
the memory, turn the ignition key on.

Diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of your system has the ability to

constantly monitor all of the switches and sensors connected to it.

It can detect any faulty switches or sensors and prevent them from

disabling the entire system. It can also record and report any trig-

gers that occur when you are away from your vehicle.
