Arming The System
There are several different ways to arm the system depending on whether you are leaving the
premises and require all active zones to be in a ready state for an intruder, or, if you are
remaining in the premises and only require part of the system to be in a ready state for an
intruder.
If a zone is not sealed at the end of exit time, the zone will be automatically isolated and will
be constantly displayed on the remote codepad. The zone will again become an active part
of the system when the zone has resealed (ie. If a window is left open after exit time has
expired, the window will not be an active part of the system until the window has closed.
Opening the window after exit time has expired will cause an alarm condition).
The different methods for arming the system include:
ØAWAY Mode
Arms the entire system. Refer to Arming In AWAY Mode on page 10.
ØSTAY Mode 1
Arms all zones except those programmed to be automatically isolated by the installer.
Refer to Arming In STAY Mode 1 on page 11.
ØSTAY Mode 2
Arms all zones except those programmed to be automatically isolated by the Master
Code holder. Refer to Arming In STAY Mode 2 on page 12.
Forced Arming
The feature of arming the system when a zone is not sealed is known as forced arming. If
the system does not arm and a long beep is heard, forced arming is not permitted. If this is
the case, you must ensure that all zones are sealed or manually isolated before you can arm
the system.
Arming In AWAY Mode
When you leave your premises and require all zones to be in a ready state to detect intrusion,
you would arm the system in AWAY Mode.
There are two different methods for arming the system in AWAY Mode. Method one is
standard and will always operate. Method two is optional and may be disabled by your
installer if you do not wish to use single button arming.
Method OneHow To Arm The System In AWAY Mode
1. Enter your user code followed by the # button (eg: 2580#).
Two beeps will be heard and the AWAY indicator will display. Exit time will now
commence counting.
Method TwoHow To Arm The System In AWAY Mode
1. Hold down the # button until two beeps are heard.
The AWAY indicator will display and exit time will commence counting.

Isolating Zones
Isolating zones allow you to manually disable one or more zones before arming the system.
Once a zone has been isolated, access is allowed into that zone during the armed state
without activating an alarm.
An example when you may require to isolate a zone before arming the system could be when
a PIR detector may be false alarming or that you may need to leave a pet inside a particular
zone whilst you are away.
Isolating zones is performed by one of two methods. Method two is optional and only
allows those user codes programmed by your installer to have access to isolate zones.
Standard Isolating
Standard Isolating allows all operators to be able to isolate zones without the need to know a
valid user code.
How To Isolate A Zone
1. Press the * button twice to enter the isolating mode.
Three beeps will be heard and the STAY indicator will flash.
2. Enter the zone number (1 – 8) that you wish to select to isolate followed by the *
button. (Eg: 1* = Zone 1, 2* = Zone 2 etc).
As you select each zone to be isolated, you will notice that the corresponding zone
indicator will begin to flash. If you selected an incorrect zone to be isolated, enter the
incorrect zone number again followed by the * button.
Repeat Step 2 if more than one zone is required to be isolated until all zone that are
required to be isolated have been selected.
3. Press the # button after you have selected all zones to be isolated.
Two beeps will be heard and the system will return to the disarmed state.

level set, the method of standard isolating will not function.
How To Isolate A Zone
1. Press the * button followed by your user code and the * button again to enter the
isolating mode (eg: *2580*). Three beeps will be heard and the STAY indicator will
flash.
2. Enter the zone number (1 – 8) that you wish to select to isolate followed by the *
button. (Eg: 1* = Zone 1, 2* = Zone 2 etc).
As you select each zone to be isolated, you will notice that the corresponding zone
indicator will begin to flash. If you selected an incorrect zone to be isolated, enter the
incorrect zone number again followed by the * button.
Repeat Step 2 if more than one zone is required to be isolated until all zone that are
required to be isolated have been selected.
3. Press the # button after you have selected all zones to be isolated.
Two beeps will be heard and the system will return to the disarmed state.
Fault Analysis Mode
If a fault should occur, the FAULT or MAINS indicator will flash and the codepad will beep
