Arming Perimeter and Selected Interior Zones
(with Entry Delay ON)
Using the 3 Key to Arm Night-Stay
STAY
Use this key when you are staying home, but would like increased
security by arming preselected interior zones.
When armed in NIGHT-STAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a
protected window or door is opened, or if one of the selected interior zones
is faulted. You may re-enter through the entrance door without causing
an alarm
IF
one of the selected perimeter zones is not faulted, but the
system must be disarmed within the entry delay period or an alarm will
occur.
Close all protected perimeter windows and doors before arming
(see
Check for Open Zones
section). The green READY indicator on the
keypad should be lit if the system is ready to be armed.
