Basic Operation
Auto Arming (Not for UL Installations)
AUTO ARM allows the User to automatically arm the system at a specified time of the day and on specific days of the
week. Schedule a specific closing time on any/all day(s) of the week. After a specific Fail-to-Close Window Start
Time, if the user has not Armed the system during the Window Length, and the system has been instructed to “Fail-to-
Close’ and ‘Auto Arm if not closed at end of Window” then the system will arm, providing a 15 minute warning. CAU-
TION: If Automatic Interior Bypass is selected, panel will Auto Arm in STAY Mode.
Delaying an Auto Arm (Not for UL Installations)
During the 15 minute pulsating sounder warning of an Auto Arm, a User can press the
R or A button, until
“TO DELAY AUTO ARM / PRESS 1-4 / N” is displayed. Enter the number of hours (1-4) to delay arming, followed by
the
U or D button. If “DELAY AUTO ARM Y/N” is displayed, press the “NEXT/YES” button. The sounder can be silenced
by pressing the
C button during the 15 minute interval, but will come back on in the last 1 minute. This feature
may be canceled by arming and disarming the keypad.
EZ Arm (Easy Arm)
EASY ARM provides one button arming for non-security critical premises. Select Easy Arming for each Keypad, with
optional reporting of Easy Arm Closings as User 67. Disarming still requires a valid user code.
To arm, press the D button for "Classic" keypads;
To arm, press and hold P or Q for 3 seconds for "K Series" keypads.
Keyswitch Arming
KEYSWITCH ARMING allows a zone input to be used to arm/disarm. The area will arm/disarm when the zone is
momentarily shorted through a Momentary Switch. An end-of-line resistor must be used. Select Keyswitch Arm to
optionally report as User 68.
Maintained-Key Input Arming
KEYSWITCH ARMING with MAINTAINED-KEY INPUT ARMING is similar to Keyswitch arming, except the zone input
must remain shorted to be armed and remain open to be disarmed.
Remote Arming (Not for UL Installations)
REMOTE ARMING allows computer software control of arming/disarming of the system for non-security critical
installations. Select Remote Arm to optionally report as User 66.
Priority Arming
A 2-second tone and “CAN’T ARM SYSTEM/ZONE FAULTED” displayed when attempting to arm indicates a priority condition;
that is, a problem exists on at least one zone that has been designated as a Priority Zone, or a system trouble exists.
The trouble(s) must be corrected before the panel can be armed. The display will read “ZONE FAULTED”, then
automatically scroll through all unsecured zones. If a system trouble is indicated, it will display the system trouble.
Area Arming/Manager’s Mode
In a partitioned system, either or both secured areas may be armed (or disarmed) from the Manager's Mode (if
enabled). The Manager's Mode, is a low-security mode of operation. It provides quick access to other areas without
having to go to another keypad of another area.
To arm or disarm the alternate area (for "Classic" keypads):
1. Press the 1, 2, 3 or 4 buttons to represent the alternate area.
2. Press the G button, then the U or D button.
3. Arm or disarm the selected area using your user code (the user code must be valid for that area).
4. To return the keypad to its “home” area, press the G button, then the U or D button.
Note: If the “home” keypad has been changed to the alternate area and unused for more than 5 minutes, it will revert
to the home area.
