INSTANT Key

Important: If you are using a Graphic/Touch-Screen Keypad, NIGHT mode is the same as INSTANT.

Use this key when you are staying home and do not expect anyone to use the entrance door.

When armed in INSTANT mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the premises. The alarm will also sound immediately if anyone opens the entrance door.

The system provides three INSTANT modes; INSTANT modes 1, 2 and 3. INSTANT modes 1 and 2, when activated, automatically bypass specific zones assigned by your installer to each of the INSTANT modes. INSTANT mode 3, when activated, automatically bypasses all zones assigned to INSTANT modes 1 AND 2. Check with your installer for a list of the zones that are bypassed during each INSTANT mode.

Close all perimeter windows and doors before arming (see CHECKING FOR OPEN ZONES section)
