Entry/Exit delays
General Information
The VISTA-15 has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry
delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to
leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm.
Exit delay begins immediately after entering any arming command,
and applies to all modes of arming protection. If it is programmed, a
slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period, with fast
beeps during the last 10 seconds.
Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when you re-enter
through the designated entrance door. But you must disarm the
system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The
keypad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm
the system. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The first is
for your primary entrance and the second can be used for a secondary
entrance, where a longer delay is required to give you enough time to
walk to the keypad to disarm the system.
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using either
the INSTANT or MAXIMUM arming mode. These modes provide
greater security while you are on the premises.
See your installer for your delay times (you may want to record them
below).
