Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior
zone is faulted when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds
an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry
delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "CANCELED ALARM" or "CA" is
displayed on the touchpad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No
message is sent to the Customer Care Center.
To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear the
display, enter your code plus OFF.
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or
interior zone is still open, the alarm sound continues and an "ex it alarm" message is
sent to the Customer Care Center. The message ""EXIT ALARM" or "EA" is displayed
on the touchpad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. To stop the
alarm, the system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter
your code plus OFF a second time.
An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door o r interior zone is faulted within two
minutes after the end of the exit delay.
Your system may have been programmed for this feature to minimize f alse alarms sent to the Customer
Care Center. Ask your installer if "Exit Alarm" is active in your system. If so, check this box.
