ARMING ALL PROTECTION
(With Entry Delay ON)
Using the
2 AWAY Key
Use this key when no one will be staying on the premises.
When armed in AWAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is
opened, or if any movement is detected inside the premises. You may leave through the
entrance door during the exit delay period without causing an alarm. You may also re-enter
through the entrance door, but must disarm the system within the entry delay period or an alarm
will occur.
Close all protected perimeter windows and doors before arming (see CHECKING FOR
OPEN ZONES section). The green READY indicator on the keypad should be lit if the system is
ready to be armed.
