Activate Telephone Test? (Telephone Test programmed? !YES !NO). Sends a communicator test to the central station. A communication failure will be indicated at the keypad by a system trouble “E03-FAIL TO COMM” display. Repeat the test to attempt to correct a communication failure, as any successful communication will clear this display.

Delay Arming 1-4 hours. (Not for UL-listed systems.) Your system may be set to arm automatically after a delay period of 1 to 4 hours.

To Delay Arm the system:

•With the function “TO ARM IN 1-4 HRS“ displayed in the window, enter the desired Delay Arming time in hours (1, 2, 3,or 4), followed by J.

•At the end of this 1 - 4 hour Delay Arming period, the siren will sound a 2-second warning and the keypad will begin a 15-minute arming countdown with the sounder pulsing. The sounder may be silenced at this time by pressing C, but it will turn back on with a steady warning tone 1 minute prior to arming, at which time the building must be exited.

The same steps can be used to delay a scheduled Auto Arming, if your system has been programmed as such.
