CA824 Alarm System User Manual 9
Operation
Arming
Full Arming
Full arming means all zones are secured. Anyone coming into the entrance zone is
required to enter a code. Otherwise the alarm is started after the entrance time is
over.
After the arming procedure is completed, short beeps indicate the exit time and the
user is required to leave the zone. Ten seconds before the exit time is over beeps
frequency is increased.
There are three methods to Full arm the system:
Method1
This is a standard method, applied when the user has the permission to arm the
system in more than one of the four ways (Full, Stay, Force and Instant).
The arming sequence is described by Figure 4 on Page 11.
Method 2
This method is applied when the user is permitted to only Full arm the system.
The arming sequence is described by Figure 5 on Page 12.
Method 3
This fast method is applied when a certain area can be armed without entering a user
code. The only possible way to arm the system is Full.
The arming sequence is described by Figure 6 on Page 13.
Stay Arming
Stay arming means the user is allowed to stay in certain zone(s), but the entrance
zone is secured.
Anyone coming into an Entry zone is required to enter a code. Otherwise the alarm is
started after the entrance time is over.
The arming sequence is described by Figure 7 on Page 14.
Force Arming
Force arming means the system is armed despite that in certain zone(s) there may
be a presence or a trouble. All such zones will be bypassed automatically at the
system arming, if they are allowed.
The arming sequence is described by Figure 8 on Page 15.
Instant Arming
Instant arming means the user is allowed to stay in certain zone(s) marked as Stay
zones, but the entrance zone is secured.

10 CA824 Alarm System User Manual
The Entry zones are armed immediately (without exit time). The difference with the
Stay arming is that the Entry zones are armed immediately (without exit time) and an
intrusion into the Entry zones immediately starts the alarm.
The arming sequence is described by Figure 9 on Page 16.
In the following figures:
XX stays for the area number
ZZ stays for the zone number
Sstays for the respective area status. It can be:
-– the area is not armed and is in normal state
+– the area is not armed and has an active zone
f– the area is Full armed
p– the area is Stay armed
s– the area is Instant armed
o– exit time is running out
M– the area is Stay armed
A– the area is in an Alarm state
F– the area is in an Fire alarm state
– the area is not supported by the respective keyboard or not used
