SPECTRA SERIES 27
PART 6: ARMING AND DISARMING OPTIONS6.1 SWITCH TO STAY ARMING
Section [133] = Partition 1, Section [134] = Partition 2
Option [4] OFF = Switch to Stay Arming Disabled (default)
Option [4] ON = Switch to Stay Arming Enabled
If a user Regular arms a partition, but does not exit through (open and close) an Entry Delay zone during the Exit
Delay, the control panel can be programmed to switch from Regular Arming to Stay Arming.
6.2 STAY ARMING WITH DELAY
Section [133] = Partition 1, Section [134] = Partition 2
Option [5] OFF = Stay Arming with Delay Disabled (default)
Option [5] ON = Stay Arming with Delay Enabled
When a partition is Stay Armed when this feature is enabled, all the zones in the partition, except 24Hr. zones, are
associated with the Stay Delay. Therefore, the control panel will not generate an alarm if a zone is breached until the
Stay Delay has elapsed. This feature prevents false alarms by allowing users enough time to disarm their system if
a zone is accidentally triggered. For example, if a user opens an armed window or crosses an armed detector on the
way to the kitchen in the middle of the night, the user will have enough time to disarm the system before the alarm is
generated. Each partition’s Stay Delay follows the value programmed in Entry Delay Timer 2 in section [070].
6.3 REGULAR ARMING SWITCHES TO FORCE ARMING*
Section [131]: Arming/Disarming Options
Option [2] OFF = Regular Arming Switches to Force Arming Disabled (default)
Option [2] ON = Regular Arming Switches to Force Arming Enabled
With this feature enabled, the control panel will always Force arm instead of Regular arm when a valid User Access
Code with the Force Arming Option is entered. In installations where the user must always Force arm when leaving
the protected area, this feature allows users to Force arm without pressing the [FORCE] key before entering their
User Access Code.
6.4 RESTRICT ARMING ON BATTERY FAIL
Section [130]: Arming/Disarming Options
Option [5] OFF = Permit arming on battery failure (default)
Option [5] ON = Restrict arming on battery failure
If this option is enabled, the control panel will not arm the system if the control panel detects that the backup battery
is disconnected, that its fuse is blown, or that the battery voltage drops to less than 10.5V. The control panel will not
arm the system until all battery trouble conditions are rectified.
6.5 RESTRICT ARMING ON TAMPER FAILURE
Section [130]: Arming/Disarming Options
Option [6] OFF = Permit arming on tamper failure (default)
Option [6] ON = Restrict arming on tamper failure
If this option is enabled, the control panel will not arm the system if the control panel detects a tamper trouble on one
or more zones. The control panel will not arm the system until all tamper trouble conditions are rectified.
This feature will not function if the Tamper Recognition Options (see page30) are disabled or whenever
the tampered zone is bypassed and the Tamper Bypass Options (see page30) have been enabled.
