ENTRY/EXIT DELAYS
General
Information
Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever
you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit
door without setting off an alarm, Exit delay begins immediately after entering any am-ring
command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If programmed, a slow beeping
will sound throughout the exit delay period.
Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter through the
designated entrance door. But the system must be disarmed before the entry delay
period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad beeps during the entry delay period,
reminding you to disarm the system. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The
first is for your primary entrance and the second can be used for a secondary entrance,
where a longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system.
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or
MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the premises
or whileaway for extended periods of time. See your installer for your delay times.
