Beyond the Basics
Using Your Security System
arming your system
Press arm home on your Security Console
to arm all Door/Window Sensors
instantly. Motion Detectors will not
trip the system when it is armed in the
“ARM HOME” mode.
Press
arm away to arm all Door/
Window Sensors and Motion
Detectors. This arms the system after
a set delay. If you arm the system in
the “AWAY” mode, you also will have
an entry delay when you enter your
home before the alarm trips, to give you time to disarm it.
Pressing
arm on your Keychain Remote always arms in the “AWAY”
mode, but arms instantly (You will not have an entry delay).
disarming the system
Pressing disarm on the Keychain Remote disarms the system
instantly. The zone that was violated is shown in the display. To
remove this, press arm and disarm again.
To disarm from your Security Console, enter your four-digit PIN.
The display shows
*
for each digit entered.
If the unit was armed, (in either “ARMED HOME” or “ARMED
AWAY” modes), your system will disarm when your PIN is entered.
Then, it will return to the time display, showing “DISARMED” and
then reverts to “HOME CONTROL.”
problem zones
If a door or window is open and you try to arm the system, a zone
number displays. This indicates the door or window that’s open.
If a Door/Window Sensor or Motion Detector has not reported in
within the last four hours, and you try to arm the system, PROBLEM
and the zone number displays.
If a Door/Window Sensor has been tampered with (e.g. the cover
is open, and you try to arm the system), TAMPER and the zone
number displays.
For all the above situations, pressing
bypass/clear bypasses the
problem zone, and lets you arm the system. After pressing bypass,
the next problem zone is displayed, (if there is more than one).
