Using the Keyswitch
General
Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming and disarming a partition. A red and green light on the keyswitch plate indicate the status of your system as follows:
Green Light: Lights when the system is disarmed and ready to be armed (no open zones). If the system is disarmed and the green light is off, it indicates the system is not ready (one or more zones are open).
Red Light: Lights when system is armed or memory of alarm exists.
Lit Steady: Partition is armed in AWAY mode.
Slow Flashing: Partition is armed in STAY mode.
Rapid Flashing: Memory of alarm, indicating an alarm has occurred.

red light will stay on steady.
