Security Bypass/Unbypass

(Security Bypass programmed? YES NO).

In high-security applications, zones may be bypassed (or unbypassed) only if a valid code is entered first, as follows:

1.Enter a User Code valid for bypass, then press B.

2.Press Bthen the zone number (or vice versa) to deactivate that zone.

Similarly, a bypassed zone may be unbypassed using the same procedure. (This feature available for GEM-P3200/9600 pan- els only).

Start Exit Time After Ringback (for Commercial Burglary Systems only) (Optional - Start Exit Time programmed? YES NO).

If your system reports to a central station, your panel may have been programmed to start exit delay after the central-station ringback (verification) signal. Then, after arming, your system will communicate to the central station. After the central station acknowledges receipt (ringback), exit delay will start. If ringback is not heard within about 30 seconds, a communication problem may exist; call for service. Function 11 (Start Exit Time) may then be used to manually start the exit delay, however reporting capability may be sacrificed. (If your system does not report or the ringback feature was not programmed, exit delay will start as soon as your code is entered. Also note that if an exception window is programmed, and the closing is within that window, no ringback is provided. Ask your alarm professional if this feature is enabled). (This feature available for GEM- P3200/9600 panels only).

Exit-Delay Restart

(Exit-Delay Restart programmed? YES NO).

On arming, the programmed exit delay will start. After the exit/entry door has been opened and then closed, exit delay will re- start if the door is opened again. The Exit-Delay Restart feature will occur one time only in any arming period. (This feature available for GEM-P3200/9600 panels only).
