Bypassing Protection Zones

Using the

6 BYPASS Key

This key is used when you want to arm your system with one or more zones intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed. All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed. Bypasses are also removed if the arming procedure that follows the bypass command is not successful.

Note: The system will not allow fire or emergency zones to be bypassed.

To bypass zones, the system must be disarmed first.
