alarms and audible trouble indicators, and clears visual
display after problem's correction.
3. AWAY KEY: Arms the entire burglary system, perimeter and
interior.
4. STAY KEY: Arms perimeter portion of burglary system only.
Interior protection is not armed, which allows movement within
premises without causing alarm.
5. MAXIMUM KEY: Arms in manner similar to AWAY mode,
but without the entry delay feature, thus providing maximum
protection. An alarm will occur immediately upon opening any
protection point, including the main door.
6. TEST KEY: Tests the system and alarm sounder if
disarmed. Refer to
TESTING THE SYSTEM
section for test
procedures.
7. BYPASS KEY: Removes individual protection zones from
being monitored by the system.
8. INSTANT KEY: Arms in manner similar to STAY mode, but
without the entry delay feature.
Entering via the entry/exit
door will cause an instant alarm.
9. CODE KEY: Used to assign additional user codes for other
users of the system.

opening of windows or doors while the system is disarmed
will sound 3 beeps at the keypad(s).

tem without use of a security code (if so programmed).

its backup battery power.

been armed (STAY, AWAY, INSTANT or MAXIMUM).
