CHECKING FOR OPEN ZONES
Using the
READY Key
Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows and other protection zones
must be closed or bypassed (see
BYPASSING
PROTECTION
ZONES
section),
otherwise the keypad will display a "Not Ready" message, and your keypad’s READY
indicator light will not be lit.
The READY () key can be used to display all faulted zones, making it easier for you to
secure any open zone.
To display faulted zones, simply press and release the READY () key (do not enter
code first). Secure or bypass the zones displayed before arming the system.
A "Ready" message will be displayed when all protection zones have been either closed
or bypassed and the keypad's READY indicator light (if present) will be lit.
