SETTING THE ALARM (ARMING) WHEN LEAVING
1. Check the keypad. The green STATUS light must be on in order to arm.
• If the green light is off, the number(s) of any unsecured zone(s) will display in the
window. Note each problem zone and secure it by closing a window, door, etc. When
all zones are secure, the green STATUS light will come on.
• Bypass faulted zones. If you cannot locate or repair the problem yourself, call for
assistance. If you cannot get immediate help, bypass the problem zone(s) from the
system by pressing the B button, then the zone number (or vice versa).
Note: Bypassed zones are unprotected. If armed with zones bypassed, be sure to have
the system checked as soon as possible.
2. Arm the system. Enter your code and press the Jbutton. The green STATUS light will
go off, the red ARMED light will come on. Note: If you enter an invalid code, the keypad will
beep 4 times, signifying an error. Re-enter your code immediately.
3. Leave the premises. Leave through the exit door before exit time expires.
Priority Arming. If you attempt to arm a faulted Priority Zone, a 3-second tone will sound at
the keypad and “P” will display in the window, indicating that the trouble(s) must be corrected
before the panel can be armed. A zone selected as Priority Zone with Bypass (check your
Alarm Plan) may be bypassed if in trouble. If the problem cannot be corrected immediately,
press the C button, then arm the panel. A 3-second beep will sound at the panel to
indicate arming with a Priority Zone in trouble. Be sure to have the trouble repaired as soon
as possible.
