Turning the System On (Arming) | Turning the System On (Arming) |
With a Duress Passcode | With Doors or Windows Open |
Your passcode may have a special duress feature that is simply your personal passcode with its last digit increased by 1 or 2.
If an intruder demands that you arm or disarm the security system, you can use your duress passcode. The duress passcode arms or disarms the system and sends an alarm report to your security company. There is no alarm tone or visual indication at the premises that the report is sent. Check with your security company before attempting to use this feature.
If a protected door or window is open, you may have the option of “force arming” with that point faulted. Faulted points (opened doors or windows) that are force armed are not included in the system. The remaining points arm normally.
Force armed points either return to normal operation after you turn off your system or return to normal when the door or window is closed. Your system might not offer force arming or it may be restricted to specific points. Contact your security company for more information.
1.Use your passcode or an arming function to start the arming process.
2.The display shows CHK AREA X.
3.Press NEXT repeatedly to scroll through the point text for each faulted point. FORCE ARM displays after the text for the last faulted point.
