Note
The designated door may be opened and closed once. If you close the designated door behind you when you exit, you will have to disarm the system upon reentering. Leave the designated door open while using the Quick Exit feature.
Quick Exit
The Quick Exit feature is used when someone wants to briefly leave while the home is still armed (i.e. get the newspaper). This feature needs to be enabled by your installer. When you press the Disarm button the panel will announce exit time on. This will allow a designated exit door to be open for up to 2 minutes without triggering an alarm.
Latchkey
Latchkey is used to notify parents, via a numeric pager, if children do not arrive home at a predetermined time and disarm the system. For example, you set the Latchkey time for 3:00 pm. If the system isn’t disarmed by that time a message is sent to your numeric pager (see “Numeric Pager”).
Note
Any sensors that are bypassed by the system will NOT be protecting your home.
Note
No Entry Delay can be used in two ways. First, you can use this feature when you’re staying at home, after you’ve armed the system (i.e. when you’re asleep). Second, you can use this when you’re away from your home. To avoid causing an alarm, you must disarm the system with a remote handheld touchpad or keychain before entering your home. Check with your installer to find out how this option is programmed.
Note
This feature is most likely used when there is no one on the premises.
