Home/Away System Arming
Area Assignment: Your security system is divided into two or three
separate areas. Motion detectors, inside doors, and other interior
devices are assigned to an
Interior and possibly Bedroom area while
windows and exterior doors, are assigned to a
Perimeter area.
Arming the system: When arming a Home/Away system, the
keypad displays HOME AWAY or HOME SLEEP AWAY. If you
select AWAY, you arm all areas of the system. You’ll want to arm all
areas when leaving with nobody staying inside. Selecting HOME
arms only the Perimeter of the system. Perimeter arming is for when
you’re staying inside but want the exterior doors and windows armed.
Selecting SLEEP arms the Perimeter and Interior devices but leaves
devices near bedrooms or other nighttime areas off.
System Ready/System Not Ready Keypad Displays
When all zones in the system are in a normal condition, the keypad
displays SYSTEM READY. If one or more zones are not in a normal
condition, the keypad displays SYSTEM NOT READY. Press any top
row SELECT key during this display to show the bad zone name.
Instant: During the exit delay time, you can cancel the exit and entry
delays and cause all zones to be instandt zones. Just press the far
right SELECT key under INSTNT while the exit delay is displayed.
This immediately arms the exit zones without entry delays and an
alarm will occur should an entry door be opened.
