Arming the System
IS THE SYSTEM READY?
You can arm and disarm the burglar portion of your security system. Before
you can arm the system, it must be “ready.” If you have a protected door
open, or someone is moving in view of a motion detector, the system will not
display the “READY” message.
The system is ready if the READY light and the display show:
LCD Keypad:
SYSTEM READY
PART 1
Fixed-Word Keypad:
“Ready” LED lit LED Keypad: “Ready” LED lit
NOTE: If programmed by your installer, you may arm the system if a delay
or interior zone is faulted. However, faulted zones must be restored before
your exit time expires or an alarm or zone bypass will result. Ask your
installer if your system has this feature and if so, if it causes an alarm or
zone bypass.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM AND LEAVE
Enter your user code.
The System ARMED light will go on and the display will show:
LCD Keypad:
ON: AWAY 120s
PART 1
Fixed-Word Keypad:
“Armed” LED lit
120
LED Keypad:
“Arm” LED lit
NOTE: The number 120 shown above for the LCD and Fixed-Word keypads
indicate a counter that is updated every second and displays the amount of
time remaining to exit without sounding an alarm.
Exit through a door designated by your installer as an exit/entry door. You
must leave within the exit time programmed by your installer. Refer to the
reference sheet for the time that has been set for your system.
This system can be programmed by the installer for the AUTOSTAY feature,
which automatically bypasses interior zones if you arm the system and do not
exit through a delay zone during exit time.

- 11 -
Arming the System (Cont’d)
WHEN THE SYSTEM IS NOT READY
If the system is not ready to be armed, the READY light will be off and the
display will show which zone or zones are not ready. The following conditions
will be indicated by the zone lights (LED keypad) or described on the display:
Fast Blink ................................. Alarm or tamper condition
Slow Blink/Low Intensity ..... Bypass
Slow Pulse ................................ Trouble, problem with RF receiver, or low
battery
Solid On .................................... Zone faulted
Example: If the READY light is not lit and the Zone 1 light is solid on, an
alarm sensor on Zone 1 is faulted. This might mean that a door is open or
someone is walking in view of a motion sensor. Check all sensors on Zone 1
and resolve the problem. In this example, the display shows the following:
NOT READY
PART 1 and NOT RDY ZN 1 FRONT DOOR
When all sensors are restored, the READY light will come on and the zone
light will go out.
Determine which zone or zones are not ready, resolve the problem, and arm
the system normally. If the problem cannot be resolved, you may bypass the
zone that is not ready. Bypassing should only be done if the problem on the
zone cannot be resolved, OR if you intentionally wish to leave the zone
disarmed. For example, you would leave the zone disarmed if you plan to
keep the window open for ventilation. Zones that are bypassed are not
protected when the system is armed. See To Bypass A Zone on the
following page for a description of the procedure.

- 12 -
Arming the System (Cont’d)
TO ARM THE SYSTEM AND STAY INSIDE
To arm the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm and move around freely
inside the premises, use the STAY mode.

lit
REMEMBER: You must disarm the system or press [STAY] to initiate the
“quick exit” if you want to open the door or leave the premises after the exit
time has expired. Quick Exit restarts the exit time without disarming the
system.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM IN INSTANT MODE AND STAY INSIDE
In INSTANT STAY mode, the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm
system is armed but the time delays are eliminated from your normal
entry/exit door(s). All interior protection is disarmed, so you are free to move
around inside.
Check to make sure the system is READY. When it is ready, press:
INSTANT followed by
STAY followed by your user code.
When the system has been armed successfully, the ARMED light, the
INSTANT light, and the STAY light will all be on, and the following will be
displayed:

TO BYPASS A ZONE
The Bypass function excludes a zone of protection from the security system
until it is unbypassed (either by using the unbypass procedure or when you
disarm the system). Bypassing can only be done while the system is
disarmed.
NOTE: 24-hour zones may be bypassed, but can only be unbypassed if the
zone is not faulted (condition has been cleared).
Press the BYPASS button. Then enter your user code and the zone number
(01–24) to be bypassed, as follows:
BYPASS followed by your user code†+ ZONE NO.
†If the Quick Bypass feature has been enabled by the installer, do not enter
the user code when bypassing zones.
NOTE: Bypassed zones are NOT protected when the system is armed. After
the bypass command has been accepted, the keypad sounds one long beep,
and the following will be displayed:
LCD Keypad:
BYPASSED: ZN 01
FRONT DOOR
Fixed-Word Keypad:

Arming the System (Cont’d)
To Bypass multiple zones, within 10 seconds of the BYPASS + User Code +
Zone No. entry, enter
BYPASS + ZONE NO.
This command can be repeated for each zone to be bypassed (up to 24).
TO UNBYPASS A ZONE
Pressing the BYPASS button returns a bypassed zone to normal operation.
To unbypass a zone, the system must be disarmed (also note that 24-hour
zones cannot be unbypassed if they are faulted). To unbypass a zone(s),
repeat the bypass function as follows:
BYPASS followed by your user code†+ ZONE NO.
After unbypassing, the zone display will show the state of the zones.
†If the Quick Bypass feature has been enabled by the installer, do not enter
the user code when unbypassing zones.

- 15 -
Disarming the System
When you disarm the system, you disarm only the burglar portion of your
system; any smoke or heat detectors and panic keys will remain armed. You
must enter through a designated entry door and disarm the system within
the time allowed. You can have different amounts of time for different entry
points. See your system reference sheet for the times established for your
system.
To disarm your system:
Enter your user code.
If no alarms have taken place, the ARMED light will go off, or the display
shows:
LCD Keypad:
SYSTEM READY
PART 1
Fixed-Word Keypad:
“Ready” LED lit LED Keypad: “Ready” LED lit
If alarms occurred when the system was armed or if a trouble condition
exists, the display shows:

User Codes
TO ADD OR CHANGE A USER CODE
Users can be added or changed directly at the keypad. Your system can have
up to 32 different user codes, with each assigned to one of four authority
levels and to a primary partition. The authority level determines the
functions that users can perform. In addition, your system can be set up for
4-digit or 6-digit user codes. Ask your installer which type of user codes is
used in your system.
To add or change a user code, press the following:
User ID Auth.
Master User Code (01–32) New User Code Level
CODE [1–4]
e.g.,CODE 1234 08 5678 3

1 Primary Master: access all partitions, can view log and set time, assign other
user codes, all system functions
2 Secondary Master: same as primary master except cannot change the primary
master’s code
3 User: cannot assign codes and cannot bypass zones
4 Limited user: same as level 3, except can disarm the system only if it was armed
by another user with level 4 authority (cannot disarm if armed with user of higher
authority level).
Assigning Partitions to Users
When a user code is assigned, that user is automatically allowed to perform
system functions in the partition in which the user’s code is assigned. You
can also allow users to access other partitions and turn on open/close
reporting to a pager by using the #7 command as follows:
[#] [7] [master user code] [user no.] [1, 2, or 4]
where: master user code = user with authority level 1 or 2
user no. = the user that will be assigned access to other partitions
1, 2, or 4 = the partition(s) 1-2 you want this user to have access to;
enter 4 if you want this user to send Open/Close reports to a
pager
