Arming to Away Mode
Use the Away Mode to arm the system when everyone will be leaving the home. The Away Mode
normally has an Entry Delay so someone with a User Code can re-enter without causing an alarm.
Interior and perimeter sensors are armed in the Away Mode.
1. Close all sensor-protected doors and windows before arming.
2. Verify that the
button on the Control Panel is lit green, indicating that the system is ready to
arm. The SECURITY button and ARM button on the display will also be green when all perimeter
sensors are closed. If the
open, be sure to close or manually bypass the interior sensor(s) or an alarm will occur.
✓ NOTE: If you desire to arm the system quietly without sounding any announcements,
press the
button before performing the next steps, select the SILENT EXIT check
box on the Arming Screen, or press SILENCE during the Exit Delay.
3. From the Security Screen, or the Menu Screen, press ARM.
• If there are any open perimeter door or window sensors, the Bypass Screen will appear.
Close all the sensors displayed or press BYPASS ALL to force bypass the displayed
sensors. NOTE: BYPASSED SENSORS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TRIGGER AN ALARM.
• To bypass sensors, you will need to enter a User Code unless
the installer has set the system for " Quick Bypass".
4. On the Arming Screen, the ENTRY DELAY check box option can be used with Away Mode.
• The system can be armed without an Entry Delay. All perimeter doors will trigger the
alarm instantly. The system will have to be disarmed with a wireless key fob. To arm with
all exit/entry perimeter doors as instant, un-check the ENTRY DELAY option button.
5. Press AWAY.
• To arm the system, you may need to enter a User Code if your
installer has turned off the system's " Quick Arming" feature.
6. The system will arm and show the Exit Delay counting down. When the Exit Delay expires, the
system is fully armed in the Away Mode.
• When the system is armed in the Away Mode, beeps will sound during
the Exit Delay (faster beeps during the last 10 seconds).
