ENTRY/EXIT DELAYS
General
Information
Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and
entry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives
you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting
off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any
arming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If
programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay
period, becoming more rapid during the last 5 seconds of the
delay period.
Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when you
reenter through the designated entrance door. But the system
must be disarmed before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm
will occur. The keypad will beep during the entry delay period,
reminding you to disarm the system. You can also arm the system
with no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or MAXIMUM
arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on
the premises or while away for extended periods of time. See
your installer for your delay times.
DISPLAYING ALL
ZONE DESCRIPTORS
Using the ✱
READY Key
The Alpha Keypads can also display all the zone descriptors that
are programmed in your system. The abbreviated instructions for
the READY key will appear first, followed by the zone
descriptors. Displaying all descriptors is useful when you need to
know the zone number of a particular zone, as when bypassing
zones.
The "Disarmed-Ready to arm" message must be displayed
before zone descriptors can be displayed.
READY
Press the ✱ key and hold down for at least 5 seconds.
