Entry/Exit delay (cont'd)
Exit Alarms
To minimize false alarms sent to the alarm monitoring company,
your system may have been programmed for this feature. Ask
your installer if Exit Alarm is active for your system.
Exit Alarm Active
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 keypad, along with a zone number indicating the
faulted zone. No message is sent to the alarm monitoring company.
To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made intact.
To clear the display, enter your 4-digit security code plus OFF key.
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 exit alarm message is sent to the alarm monitoring
company. The message EXIT ALARM or EA is displayed on the
keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. To stop
the alarm, the system must be disarmed (by entering 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 or interior zone is
faulted within 2 minutes after the end of the exit delay.
