3.0 System Operations
This section explains the general operations of the system: arming and disarming the system in the three modes, isolating zones, initiating codepad alarms, and determining a fault.
3.1Arming the System in AWAY Mode
Arming the system in AWAY Mode is normally performed when you leave the premises and require that all zones are activated in a ready state to detect an intrusion.
There are two different methods to arm the system in AWAY Mode. You can always use method one. You can use method two only if Option 2 is enabled in Location 497 (refer to Section 18.6 Consumer Options 2 on page 83).
If you must isolate a zone (or zones) before arming the system in AWAY Mode, refer to Section 3.11 Isolating Zones on page 17.
Single button arming in AWAY Mode reports as User Code number 16.
To arm the system in AWAY Mode (method one):
Enter your code and press [AWAY].
Two beeps sound, the AWAY indicator lights, and Exit Time starts.
To arm the system in AWAY Mode (method two):
Select Option 2 in Location 497 to enable single button arming in AWAY Mode (refer to Section 18.6 Consumer Options 2 on page 83).
1.Press and hold [AWAY].
2.When two beeps sound, release the button.
The AWAY indicator lights and Exit Time starts.
If a zone is not sealed at the end of Exit Time, the zone is automatically isolated and its indicator is lit on the remote codepad. The zone becomes an active part of the system again as soon as it is resealed. For example, if a window is open when Exit Time expires, the window is not an active part of the system until it is closed. Opening the window after Exit Time expires causes an alarm.
Forced Arming
Arming the system when a zone is not sealed is known as forced arming. Refer to Section 14.3.7 Zone Options 2 on page 63 to enable forced arming for each zone.
If the AWAY indicator does not light and a long beep sounds when you attempt to arm the system in AWAY Mode, forced arming is not permitted. If this is the case, you seal all zones or manually isolate them before you can arm the system.
3.2Disarming the System from AWAY Mode
When you enter the premises after the system is armed in AWAY Mode, you must disarm the system from AWAY Mode to disable detection devices that activate the sirens, strobe, and bell outputs.
If there was an alarm prior to disarming the system from AWAY Mode, a zone indicator flashes, indicating a previous alarm in that zone.
To disarm the system from AWAY Mode:
1.Enter your code and press [AWAY].
2.Two beeps sound and the AWAY indicator is extinguished.
3.3Arming the System in STAY Mode 1
STAY Mode 1 is used when you need to arm the perimeter and unused areas of the premises to detect
a
Only the installer can program zones to be automatically isolated in STAY Mode 1. Refer to Section 14.3.7 Zone Options 2 on page 63 for more information on setting zones to be automatically isolated in STAY Mode 1.
There are two methods to arm your system in STAY Mode 1. You can always use method one. You can use method two only if Option 2 is enabled in Location 497 (refer to Section 18.6 Consumer Options 2 on page 83).
If the system reports to a base station, it sends a Partial Close Report (Contact ID Event Code 456).
Entry Guard Timer for STAY Mode
When arming the system in STAY Mode 1, an optional entry timer called Entry Guard Timer for STAY Mode can be used to delay the sirens, strobe, and bell outputs if a zone that is not automatically isolated activates an alarm. Entry Guard Timer for STAY Mode is the delay time used for all zones, except
If the Entry Guard Timer for STAY Mode is programmed and a zone that was not automatically isolated is activated, the codepad beeps twice per sec until the Entry Guard Timer for STAY Mode expires or the system is disarmed. If the alarm is not reset before Entry Guard Timer for STAY Mode expires, the strobe, bell, and siren outputs are activated into alarm.
Single button arming in STAY Mode 1 reports as User Code number 16.
